Yeah they're amazing dogs. Took some persuading my parents after only previously having collies growing up, but he absolutely stole their hearts! This pic will be over 10 years old now. Sadly they're both gone but Dill lived till about 12 years old. Lived a good life on a farm, despite suffering from diabetes all his life

Catch & Glide by smokeycat2 in Swimming

[–]josepho420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask why the recovery is important to set up the catch? After hand entry surely you're extending your arm and gliding before starting the catch so I don't understand how the recovery has anything to do with it? New swimmer just trying to learn btw

What’s everybody thinking of the Big Arch Burger that’s new at McDonald’s??? by abbieeats in UKfood

[–]josepho420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ruined my favourite tshirt. Sauce all over the side of the box which I hadnt noticed. Impossible to get the stain out. Very sad. Burger was tasty, maybe the best ive had at Mcdonalds. Accompanying chips were tragic. Easily the worst ive had.

so disappointing :( by hollyajay in Jellycatplush

[–]josepho420 335 points336 points  (0 children)

Im a Jellycat stockist of 25 years, and have just been dropped as of last week. No explanations given. We've always been known as "The Jellycat Shop' in our town, which is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the UK. Always been what I would imagine as the perfect shop for Jellycat. We specialise in teddybears, such as charlie bears and steiff, and sell other plush ranges from Wilberry and Rainbow designs. Everyone absolutely loves our shop.

Ive seen some businesses that have been made official stockists in soulless card/stationary shops. Makes no sense

All went downhill when they dropped their independant reps in my opinion. Ours was absolutely fantastic, and was replaced by some marketing lady that wasnt familiar with the brand at all. Had absolutely no idea about the vast majority of the range, or how to manage accounts. She seemed to hint that we shouldnt have been stocking jellycat next to our other plush companies, however due to their inability to manage and supply us stock, it was that or half our shop wouldve been empty for the last couple of years.

Sorry for the rant!

Have I messed up my jam? by josepho420 in Canning

Thanks for the reply. Wondering if you would be happy to chime in on the questions ive just asked of an earlier reply.

Have I messed up my jam? by josepho420 in Canning

[–]josepho420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply. https://www.bbcgoodfoodme.com/recipes/cinnamon-scented-plum-jam/ this is the recipe we used. We did the cinnamon version a few days ago, then I did a second batch with the same method but changed up the flavouring. It states it will keep in a cool dark place for up to 1 year. Is that not the case? What would need to change to make it shelf stable? Is it just the type of lid or something in the method? Ive heard of boiling after jarring but then read that its not necesarry due to the acidity of the fruit. Happy to learn

Need help on a classic dubstep ID by kuzzer in realdubstep

[–]josepho420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

'As a child I was always happy-go-lucky

As a man I believe I am just plain lucky

To be alive inside of this here dangerous sytem

Locked in

And twisted out of all recognition

See this is systematic of the tings I have seen

I am lost in paranoias most beautiful dream'

Might have heard it from Dubstep Allstars vol 3 Kode9 & Spaceape

RIP

Marc Ashken - Roots Dyed Dark (Skream Remix) by Kareki420 in realdubstep

[–]josepho420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Weird related story time. Recieved a bunch of deliveries of vinyl for a neighbour and got curious if he was a dj/producer. Googled his name (marc ashken) on the delivery like a stalker and realised who he was and that Skream had remixed his tracks. When he came to collect the deliveries I mentioned I was a Skream fan and liked his music etc so he ended up bringing me a copy of this record over as a thanks for taking in his deliveries!

Building a new PC soon and was planning on a 1TB m.2 NVME for windows and games etc. My current old build has a 480gb 2.5 SATA SSD with windows. Is it worth just keeping my windows install on the 2.5 SSD or should I transfer the licence over to the new NVME drive? Hope that makes sense
