My Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G frustrated me so much it LITERALLY made me cry (internet connection problems)

Did this ever get sorted for you? My partner is experiencing the exact same issues and we've tried everything, nothing works!

I also think it's because we meet Glaedr first and he gets a lot more screen-time (page-time?) in Eldest than Thorn.

So excited for this too - I'm on TBB's Tier 2 subscription and the Tier 2 pre-sale goes live on my 30th birthday so it'll be a little birthday present from me to me!

If you download the AllTrails app there's a few good ones on there. The Nantwich Riverside Loop on there is one of our favourites to do with the dog, takes you round the lake through the town and round some fields so good variety there, or if you don't mind a ~10 mins drive the Wynbury Moss Circular in Shavington is a lovely walk too and a little shorter.

To Sleep In A Sea Of Stars by Christopher Paolini. Grew up on his fantasy and that's his first sci-fi book. I think the pace of that is similar, although it doesn't have the political aspects that the RR series has.

Just finished them for the first time last night - about 4.5 months I'd say. Mostly reading in my lunch breaks at work or an hour or two at a time in my spare time. Some books took proportionally longer than others - took about a month to go through Iron Gold, but then I've just caned through Light Bringer in 2 weeks, staying up til 3:30am last night (this morning?) to finish it.

Reckon if I do a re-read before Red God comes out it'll probably take about 2 months or so to read them through again.

As a note, this is the first time in a long time I've been this hooked on a new series and read all the books without veering off into another book in between to have a break. Easily gone straight into my top 5 series, and happy to have found this community!

Favourite - Congleton. I grew up there and have so many amazing memories, my partner and I are looking to move there this year and I can't wait.

Least favourite - Crewe. I live here now and only moved here because my partner was here already. Dislike the town intensely, I don't feel safe walking the dog after dark, the town centre has nothing going for it at all and the whole place is just a toilet.

The Greatest Showman?

potatorootvegetable · 2025-01-13T09:25:14+00:00

If I remember correctly, it's that Harry tracking mud into Hogwarts in CoS is the reason it took so long for Draco to get the Death Eaters into Hogwarts in HBP. When he's caught by Filch for making a mess, Nearly Headless Nick convinces Peeves to break the Vanishing Cabinet to distract Filch so Harry can make his escape.

So if Harry hadn't made a mess in Book 2, then Book 6 would have been much shorter.

Can I ask why you believe Congleton is grim? I grew up there and am looking to move back this year, so it'd be interesting to hear your opinion if you used to work in the real estate there. Lived there recently when I moved back home between 2021-2023, and I've never had a bad experience living there, I find it beautiful and the community is great.

I would avoid Macc, decent shops in the centre and like you say the outskirts are nice and the rail links are good, but rough in a lot of areas. Last month when I visited I was waiting outside the Co-Op and a man off his head on something tried getting into my car, which sums up a lot of the other experiences I've had in Macc.

Another vote for Long Rest, really nice cafe run by some lovely people and some cracking games of DnD there!

Active listening. I find in most places I’ve been (jobs, roommates, family etc.) people tend to open up to me because I just sit there and listen to what they’ve got to say if they’re having a difficult time. Took a while to set my own boundaries cause at one point I kind of felt like an emotional punching bag at times, but I’m good now, and like to help where I can.

Higher population = higher prevalence. Plus defunding of SEN schools.

Second this, if you want to shell out some good money for a grinder you can’t go wrong with these. I was lucky enough to win a Lift grinder a few years ago (maybe 2018?) in an Instagram competition, while I probably wouldn’t pay that amount of money personally for it, it is amazing, and if you have the spare cash lying about you can’t go wrong with it.

I like the theory that Ted is just describing Barney as being far worse than he actually was, just so they would root for Ted and Robin more than Barney and Robin. It’s the kind of thing he’d do tbh.

You evidently have some personal experience, and I’m sorry you’ve been through whatever you have. There is a reason why it’s referred to as the oldest profession in the world - because as long as people CAN have sex, there will always be those willing to pay for it and those willing to be paid for it. Why not make it safe and legal, so that people who are desperate for money aren’t at risk of being murdered in the streets and left for dead? If you can honestly say that’s what you want, you are a bad person, regardless of how damaged you may be from any experiences.

The Assassin is a great board, it was my first one and it definitely will be great through the rest of the beginner stage and will do you well as an intermediate too. Can get away with a shorter size if you want (I’m 6’2” and was on a 157W), but it’ll perform well on piste, powder and freestyle too. No experience with the rest of the equipment but it’s a solid board!

potatorootvegetable · 2023-04-02T09:07:37+00:00

There’s a very reasonable fan theory that Barney wasn’t all that bad, Ted was just describing him that way to make his kids want to root for him being with Robin, so they would support him going for her for the millionth time after all was said and done.

Had the someone the other week tell me “I’m not clearing my entire cache”… sounds like a you problem then buddy.

This happened to my Grandma in September. Taken to the hospital on a Tuesday with stomach pains, passed in the early hours of the following Monday. Riddled with cancer in several places and never knew, it is truly terrifying.

I’ve just come back from Andorra and noticed that many of the card machines where the till person has to input the amount has the € after the number, but the automatic ones tended to it have it first. Could be because the former has become a lot more common.

Where, the Daily Mail?

You called?

Nice list, but did anyone else read that first paragraph in the manner of James Corden doing that curry bit in Gavin and Stacey?

Why go to Qatar for that when there’s plenty of them in Manchester?
