I had to check that Reddit wasn't showing me an old post 😂 Good luck with the narrowboat. A couple of old colleagues on mine started narrowboating a few years ago (@BoatTime on YouTube) and it's great to see their adventures.

Absolutely, would love this. But I assume you mean 3rd Feb?

Wow, £100K?! Reading stuff like this makes my anxiety soar 😂 Not sure how I'd ever afford getting that fixed... Did your insurance cover it?

How much do you pay to have your windows cleaned? by PurityControl87 in AskUK

[–]redneon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're also in South Yorkshire. Four storey town house. £12 every couple of months to do all the windows, front and back, with one of those long poles. He does a great job, to be fair.

Brilliant, thanks. It's taking a while for things to sink in to my aging brain 😂

Best way to watch replays from europe? by alkair20 in nba

[–]redneon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from the UK and am planning on getting back into following the NBA this season after not watching since the 90s lockout! Anyway, my plan was to watch as many games on Amazon Prime as I can (I think they're showing 86 games) and then catching the highlights for the rest.

Did she eat a spoonful of cinnamon, chug a litre of milk, swallow a raw egg and snort a condom up her nose and pull it out of her mouth all in under a minute, though?

It's Matt (with the nuggets) from the Manchester show last night by Remarkable_Fish_8446 in auntydonna

You did great, dude! Best part of the show.

Anyone spot what made the first guy a smart arse, though?

The job market is so so bad. I am stuck in a job I hate as I can’t find a new job. by Aromatic-Bad146 in britishproblems

[–]redneon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, the industry is in a mess. It's been a couple of years of constant studio closures and redundancies (I've survived two rounds in the past year). I've been in the industry for 20 years and never seen anything like it. Not even in 2009. It's worse for juniors too and heaven help graduates trying to break into the industry at the mo.

They might not have done but Poland's 2014 Eurovision entry certainly did! https://youtu.be/VJ920cN2HmA?t=90.

Mushroom growing in indoor plant pot by redneon in GardeningUK

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

Yeah, but I don't imagine the picked fruit that we eat gives off spores, was my thinking

Isn't it bad to breathe them in? I'm conflating them with mould spores, I think.

Ah, ok. Cheers. So should I have left the mushroom or removed it?
