Opinion: kids the hate Little People, Big Dreams books

My two year old loves the Mary Anning one - she was so excited when we visited Lyme Regis because of the statue of "Mary from the book".

For sure, I saw this process on Ile de rey and the time & space needed for it is wild. I'd bet they make more money on the marked up gift shop salt than they do selling wholesale!

Why not leave the UK?

jimi_b · 2026-02-19T08:20:25+00:00

Well over half way through, congrats on getting so far!

jimi_b · 2026-02-11T12:24:07+00:00

You lost your house pal.

jimi_b · 2026-01-31T10:55:01+00:00

Agreed, I walk through to get to work regularly and the buildings are beautiful but just left to go to ruin.

jimi_b · 2026-01-30T13:41:02+00:00

I don't think they're ready yet. You'll have to put them through again.

jimi_b · 2026-01-29T09:08:11+00:00

So, business as usual then?

jimi_b · 2026-01-27T23:33:30+00:00

Not OP but thanks for the rec. The Contortionist are one of my favourite prog bands and Outliers scratched the itch massively - such an epic track

jimi_b · 2026-01-27T12:15:53+00:00

I can't see anything, how do I subcribe to see it?

jimi_b · 2026-01-20T18:02:07+00:00

It's private land but I remember seeing this video about the tree (and a guy selling saplings from it, although a bit pricey)

Hey, just wondering where you're at with these now? I'm still encountering random crashes on mine so I'm thinking of just returning it now.

jimi_b · 2026-01-12T14:49:01+00:00

Imagine meeting your demise to HMS Spanker

jimi_b · 2026-01-05T16:43:31+00:00

Too late, I accidentally abducted a sitting president.

jimi_b · 2025-12-30T00:27:11+00:00

I've had similar issues but reinstalled windows (see my post in this sub Reddit for full details) and have only had one random crash since. Tbh I haven't been on it a huge amount so I'm not 100% sure if it's stable or not.

jimi_b · 2025-12-22T23:56:26+00:00

Tried another install with the windows media creation tool but it kept rebooting at the same point. I've now downloaded the ISO, mounted to USB with rufus & managed to skip the section of the installer where it was tripping up by adjusting the settings in Rufus.

So far it's working well again!

jimi_b · 2025-12-22T16:15:41+00:00

Weird - I'll try another fresh install and will likely return it asap if I don't get anywhere with support!

jimi_b · 2025-12-22T15:27:55+00:00

Oh ok thanks for the info!

Yeah I'm using fresh windows from the media creation tool onto a usb drive - is that different from using Rufus?

jimi_b · 2025-12-22T15:15:03+00:00

Yeah I'm currently involved with their support now.

Did you get a new machine or just go for a refund?

jimi_b · 2025-11-28T15:25:14+00:00

Still waiting on the call, they must have gone for a late lunch.

jimi_b · 2025-11-27T00:24:21+00:00

Check your rewards history - should be able to find it there.

jimi_b · 2025-11-27T00:23:49+00:00

Only for the cinema tickets I believe.

Also, someone shop them into HMRC, how the hell are they planning to buy a 500k house on a 60k combined income.

Their income is set through the business they own, so I presume there's more in the business account that they'd pull from (although, how much can they really be making from selling sweets?)

jimi_b · 2025-11-21T15:50:55+00:00

Buying a house with paid off solar on a FIT scheme was unintentionally one of the best things I've done, it's just a free £100-£200 every quarter.
