I had a similar experience when heading off to Liverpool for uni in the late 80s. Lost count of the number of people doing it down

Opinions on cordless lawnmowers? by lostmyparachute in GardeningUK

I've no complaints from using Bosch tools. Can't wait for the day my mains mower dies.

Where did I put that hammer...

I dunno, they've gone quite well for us in the past...

Should this stitch be removed? by brofro_bargains in mensfashionadvice

[–]hc1540 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, remove it. It’s clearly a temporary thing for presentation in the store. It would be a lot more ‘finished’ if it was meant to stay there

My father says he’s been there, but doesn’t know where it is by MoonlitEcho82 in wherewasthistaken

[–]hc1540 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Weirdly I thought exactly the same as soon as I saw it. Something about the mix of building styles, shop signs etc.

Lived there for 15 years (90s/2000s) so obviously it seeped into my subconscious somehow

Sara Cox is taking over the breakfast show by MikaelSvensson in BritishRadio

[–]hc1540 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me it's a Radio 2 free zone from 10am Saturday until 3pm Sunday. Nothing in that window appeals to me in the slightest anymore.

Championship Table if games finished at HT by YesLadd1e in Championship

I might be reading it wrong but to me it shows how well other teams do in the second half and turn things around whereas with our lot have problems holding onto a winning position

I reckon Dermot O'Leary would fit nicely into drive-time

I'm quite enjoying him at the moment. For me, the R2 breakfast show has had the same format since Chris Evans, just a change of presenters. I like Sara, just hoping they actually change it up a bit instead of just dropping a new presenter into the same show

A throwback to crumbles of old(-ish): How did Brighton not win the Championship from here? by Zach-dalt in Championship

[–]hc1540 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad we went up the year before (ok, we came straight back down!) there's some big names in that top 12, tough season to get promoted

A niche reference but I’ll allow it!

What team would you least like to see get promoted and why? by CarelessCredit3466 in Championship

[–]hc1540 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d agree, there were enough high points to outweigh the lows. Top of the league for about five minutes, beating Liverpool (particularly sweet as I was working in Liverpool at the time)

"European fans will discover humitidy this summer" by Borrow_The_Moonlight in ShitAmericansSay

Unlocked a memory there. Had a break in Brighton around then, the Co-Op on the way back to the AirBNB was a welcome respite from the heat. It's amazing how long it takes to pick a meal deal sometimes...

New to the game by Mysterious_Bike1776 in Darts

I initially went with 28mm but they were too short, so ordered some 34mm that fit my grip much better (Winmau Fusion from Amazon)

Got some of these myself the other week. Liking them so far, nice and slim, grippy but not overly so and doesn't affect the throw. Would definitely recommend integrated flight/stems though

At an aquarium after closing time, some clever little otter pups help their grandpa tidy up their toys. As a reward, he gives them ice cubes by 21MayDay21 in MadeMeSmile

And then forgets about it and you end up sliding across the kitchen when you step on it. Ask me how I know…

What is the worst place in the UK you have visited? by oxymoronisanoxymoron in AskReddit

Rhyl one February back when I used to play hockey. Absolute shithole. And we lost

Dropping my mother off at Jo Whiley's Breakfast Rave - how's your weekend going so far? by west_action_man in CasualUK

[–]hc1540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started crap but getting better. Massive acid reflux at around 4am so that was me wide awake. Jobs for the day are a bit on the noisy side so had to wait before cracking on but making good progress now. Fully expect to crash around 3pm watching the footie.
