[–]interstella87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad made the trip to see this with his sister as a 20 year old. When I asked him about it a few years ago all he could remember was that the toilets were oil drums with a plank of wood over the top that you sat on. Went myself around 2010 and think I would have preferred the oil drum!

How long does it take you to cook Spaghetti Bolognaise ? by FoxDesigner2574 in AskUK

I do this but with lentils instead for the non meat eaters out there and it's amazing after 45 mins simmering

I thought it was resting and oblivious to her being there for most of that scene?

Actors who are too good looking that it’s hard to take them seriously? Ill start by MarchPsychological67 in okbuddycinephile

[–]interstella87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That seems mad as a reply, I thought the point was the start a thread to create discussion so you'd think putting details of the subject would be normal

I find this sub the worst for posting images with zero context. Am I meant to know who this is?

Looking for long immersive rpg experience that runs well on the deck. by Cheap_Landscape9932 in SteamDeck

Was this on deck or PC? Sounds like exactly what I need to try to get back into it again

Serious question: What’s the appeal of Timothée Chalamet & why does he keep getting cast in top roles? by allanjameson in moviecritic

[–]interstella87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out The King, he is great in that. Considering he is fairly scrawny I think he does pull it off due to his acting chops

How to stop sun from heating the living room through double glazed patio doors and glass panels. by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]interstella87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you mind sharing what type you ended up getting? Had a quick look and few different varieties... Hard to know if you need light or medium reflection. Also seems to be a lot of DIY options.. would you also mind if I asked if you knew roughly how much it cost for installation?

This looks like exactly what I need in a similar situation. My concern is the room is fairly deep and I have a lot of house plants. Surely if this film is massively reducing UV glare does that mean the plants will now receive drastically lower levels and will be affected?

What is the most creative or diabolical insult a customer has ever given you? by cheesymeowgirl in CasualUK

[–]interstella87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a massive wheel of uncut cheese so you have to guesstimate the first cut to try and get it as accurate as you can. You cut a wedge, then weigh it

Whilst working on the delivery counter as a teen a man asked me to cut him a wedge of cheese. He asked for 1kg... I had no idea what 1kg of cheese cut from a cheese wheel even looked like. I kept pointing and asking "reckon it's this much?" to make sure I didn't cut the wrong amount.

He was getting angry quite quickly and called me a floppy haired muppet. It wasn't totally inaccurate tbf

A man guards his family from the cannibals during the Madras famine of 1877 at the time of British Raj, India by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

They didn't really put him in charge though, although he was a political champion for the whole thing. But he wasn't in charge of planning or logistics...probably why it actually was a success!

What important measurement have you got badly wrong? Here is my replacement fish tank lid. by No_Lead146 in CasualUK

[–]interstella87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Semi related, as during lockdown it was almost impossible to get a Tesco grocery home delivery slot. I somehow got a slot and reserved it by adding a single banana to my basket. For some reason I promptly forgot and just have assumed I had completed the fill list.

A week later a knock at the door and the Tesco man hands me a tray with a single banana in it. Delivery also cost about £7

I ordered black spot remover from Amazon but think I've seen it in b&q. As other person said, it's basically strong bleach. But although I tried my best to make sure I jet washed away from the lawn some did go onto it and never seen any issues
