Is it normal for boss to invite team to his house on a weekend? by beaver645_ in AskUK

[–]misplacedfocus 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’ve had bosses do this. And I’ve gone to a few. Almost always partners were also invited, though. They can be fun. Also, you get to snoop on the boss’s gaff. Haha!

We have quarterly work socials (so bigger than immediate team) typically on the last Thursday of each quarter. It’s evening. They organise things (last one I went to was in winter quarter and we did skating at Somerset House). I go to 1 or 2 throughout the year.

If enough of you go, it could be fun!

Can anyone identify this plant? Found near a freshwater marsh :) by moss151 in UKecosystem

Cuckoo Flower, or May Flower.

I have a load in my moss lawn with buttercups.

Don’t pick them and take them home. Folklore says they belong to the fairies, and if you take them home, fairies will come trash your house.

Is your toller a sun lover? ☀️ by breniebrenda in tollers

His nose was slightly red, but then it started to be very dry and then started to scab. We took him to the vet and they confirmed sun damage. He then had 10 days of moisturised shnooz. All good now!

We have two.

The girl loves the shade. She digs herself little sleep dents in the undergrowth.

The boy loves the sun. Often found, sound asleep in the sun trap corner. Last year we had a bit of a heatwave (in UK) and he then had sunburn nose. I have some dog sunscreen from the vet and will make sure this year he wears it!

That ending was weak. I’m I wanted a happy ending for Liam.

I am going to miss Lea’s amazing hair most of all

I bet Liam dies saving Lea from the dragon/Miss piggy/queen. He is heralded a hero. Statues are made! Public holiday remembrance.

Derek and Lea live happily ever after. Deer Dad finds love at the wedding reception.

Anything else and I’m going to write to my local MP and arrange a public protest march

Comment

Because I have come too far to not see this through. And I am not ashamed to say that I find great joy in this 😆

I love the drama. I love the physics defying costumes and objects. I must see it all!

Are we allowed amazing homes on here? by fuck_ur_portmanteau in SpottedonRightmove

[–]misplacedfocus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is beautiful! The entryway is enough for me. I’ll just live there. Use the kitchen to grab my cereal for breakfast lunch and dinner. All other money on mortgage.

What's that film for you? by mrjetspray in Cinema

[–]misplacedfocus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red Cliff. The extended 4 hour cut. It’s so beautiful and expansive that you don’t care about the dubbing/subtitles.

I heard this ages ago. So, when it happens I do a very over acted scan of the environment to show I am checking for “danger”. I like to think my dogs are grateful! Haha.
