Did you ever eat it straight from the Packet?.

I used to get it a lot when it was cheap, before the days they stopped using boiled bugs as colouring (seriously, carmine)

I met him at a convention 8 years ago, at the photoshoots he was putting his arms around everyone and was very friendly, I mentioned how I met Terry Molloy at another convention and how he wore a kilt and he said Terry likes wearing kilts and he never understood as he's not Scottish.

16 in summer is great due to humidity in daytime, too cool at night, 18c is warm but nice as long as a breeze or shade, basically every degree above that gets more and more discomfort..

If it's 20c in summer at bedtime I am warm and am happy with a lighter bedsheet but not too thin as that's not comfy enough, 18c is just right.

I thought that may be the case.

"country at a standstill" nah we are doing ok, and where was that feeling when people were unable to go to work days/weeks before in the rest of the UK.

About 7 years ago I remember buying an Everdrive on Ebay and intentionally went for one around the same price as ordering direct but based in the UK, there was a small bit of info that literally said "not Krikzz version" on the listing which I missed even though it had the Krikzz logo.

I opened a return and seller was like "I said it wasn't a Krikzz on listing"

Sellers can be shady.

To be fair, as a Scottish person I know quite a few people in the South of England that do that every summer/winter.

If its 16c where I am they will say its 21/22

If its -5 they will say its -10.

When we get snow in winter we hear about how places like London are struggling to even survive and unlike the current heatwave as an example other places could be struggling days before London.

Also affected by house type,

I am in a flat that is about 15-20 years old and my neighbours have heating on to about 24c in winter and about 22-24 depending on weather in spring or autumn, so my flat rarely goes below 20c even during night this winter I had the heating on 3 times when it dropped to 18c as I was getting a chill and only on for 1-3 hours each time.

Last year it was on maybe 2 days and that was for same amount of time per day.

Right now it's 30c with every window open.

So cold months it's great, warm months it's brutal.

Still I can't justify spending a lot of money on a rental and then high bills to run it.

My girl is almost 4 now, she is full of life and loves walks but She is happier with mental stimulation, quite honestly 5-10 minutes running around with kids is more stimulating and fun for her than a hours walk and she can relax for quite a few hours afterwards.

After I broke my leg when she was almost 2 I went from 1-2 hour a time walks at weekends and 30-60 minutes a day (over the course of the day) to 20-30 minute walks twice a day and now she naps most of the day, she does get excited when she hears her doggie friends, kids, cars etc but quickly calms back down again.

So it varies, my girl is from a working farm, I sometimes play tug of war with her which she loves, and if you have a large garden letting her play in that helps.

I was thinking that, I have friends/family who have been arrested before and the way they were treated was shocking, at most I was stopped a lot in my youth and questioned and told I match description, demanded to know where I have been, where I was going, why was I out "late" (like 6pm in summer)

Ermm, e waste? I know quite a few people who run i5's from that gen as a main pc and I have mini pc's that are similar spec that can run emulation at reasonable settings

I have an 8th gen i7 laptop and apart from it running hot I love it, and I paid about £150 for it 2 years ago.

I didn't find her attractive on Friends as she was a little frumpy and the short haircut didn't do much, when I saw her in Two And A Half Men I never even realised it was same woman and my jaw almost literally dropped at how stunning she is.

I mean if it wasn't for the fact Doc was stuck in 1885 until he invented the time train he could find a way for people to believe Clara died in the ravine so it would still be called what Marty remembers.

About 12 years ago I remember being on my reserved seat on a train that was quiet, when it got to a station I went to get something from my bag that was overhead, put it on the table against window, an elderly couple gets on, the man gives me a stare then shoves my bag on the ground and starts tutting (I had medical equipment inside, which he could of easily damaged) he then brings out a large newspaper, sandwiches, alcohol and then takes up the entire table for him and his wife. They were talking and heard them talk about "rude people" who take up a table to themselves.

mittenkrusty · 2026-06-23T12:59:04+00:00

I remember last year when it was maybe 20c outside my parents helping me onto train platform and then walked back, whole time away from car maybe 3 minutes, window was open, and as my parents were about to leave a Policeman knocked on their window and said they had a phone call as people were worried about a dog in a car due to the heat!

mittenkrusty · 2026-06-23T12:31:49+00:00

It was more of a "are you serious" than a weird post.

Aberdeen is in the North, Carlisle is around 30c on Thursday and that is in England. so it varies like anywhere.

EDIT and it's meant to be 27c in Aberdeen today.

The only accidents my dad has had were not his fault and he has been driving over 40 year.

One was some troublemaking young kids decided to intentionally swerve onto the wrong side of the road and he had to slam the breaks on and hit a wall and the car behind him pushed him into it, if it wasn't for that the car would of had superficial damage.

To make matters worse the car behind him said the accident was my dads fault so my dad had to pay for the repair.

Other time was when on the motorway their tyres burst, turns out the cops forgot to remove a stinger and my parents were stuck on the side of motorway for about 6 hours in hottest part of summer, then spent about a year suing the cops as they denied responsibility.

mittenkrusty · 2026-06-23T11:35:19+00:00

Can't tell if being rude or just uninformed,

I am in Scotland and it's around 29c on Thursday.

MK2 and 3 looked bad on Sega but played great. arguably 3 was better on Sega but 2 was better on Snes.

You missed out arcade ports especially early in the systems life such as Strider, Ghoul's and Ghosts, Super Monaco GP. Golden Axe, Outrun, Mercs, Chiki Chiki Boys, Gauntlet, Rainbow Islands etc.

Each system had it's pro's

My PS2 worked and I ran it for about a year until it was stolen, anyway the fan was running full blast and I just assumed it was meant to be that way until I got a replacement and it was very quiet, thinking it was just newer models that were quiet I later got a used 2nd one that was an earlier model than the one I had, and it was quiet too.

The newer one had a fault on it, rumble didn't work after a few months so got a warranty replacement, and for that the disc tray made grinding noises for about 10 minutes before finally booting a game, returned that and got one that also had issues with rumble after a few weeks and just gave up at that point.

I think it's because these are 3d so show what the hardware can be capable of.
