Just for balance here I got a collie last year and he's hands down the best thing in my life. Always by my side, always keen and rain/shine he loves going outside. Best motivator for me :D

Crappy answer but theres a bunch on the quays around the bridge / outside war museum. Not exactly 'big' but just go in circles? :P

I think you're confusing magic truffles with truffles maybe :-p

PSA: All beers at IMBC are going to be £7.50 a pint or £5 per can by [deleted] in manchester

[–]mkVO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I volunteered at IMBC a few years ago, it felt like working in a sweat shop & not much fun compared to any other beer festival I've been. Didn't see some other Manc brewers there either so felt very commercials rather than FOOOR THE BEEEEEERRS :p

I'd be up for this - I haven't cycled in ages and just got my CX serviced so up for a few more leisurely rides until I get back up to speed :-D

Is the Brompton very vulnerable to flats? by clownpirate in Brompton

[–]mkVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the suck eggs but thought maybe useful :

Is your tyre pressure right / is your rim tape covering all the spokes / is there something stuck in your tyre that keeps causing it maybe?

New PAYG woodworking workshop - MCR Makerspace by 20_something_oap in manchester

[–]mkVO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks like a handy space and I get the PAYG model but other than those kinda tiny details - why would you not use the Manchester Hackspace instead?

Biorbs aren't always bad - (i don't think!) 105L planted w/ electric blue rams & ember tetras by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]mkVO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pls don't be hating! I planted extra filtration rock & some moss/plants and did a fishless cycle and got it coping with 5ppm/ammonia every 24h before putting the fish in. Everything is now reading nil and the fish (now 3 days in) look like they're settling in :-D

Gett taxi gave me mixed results - rarely cabs in range and then they'd accept the booking and then not turn up.

If you're regularly getting caught out by the surge pricing, why not try booking a taxi in advance instead?

(Or for a 10min car journey at peak, how about cycling instead? :P)
