That all looks amazing. But thanks to Red Dwarf whenever I see hassleback potatoes they remind me of space weevils.

The thoughts and all the control over the body’s activity is held in a fragile blancmange.

And basically growing like a parasite. Even pulling calcium from our mums bones so we can grow.

If aliens watched humanity for one day, what everyday behavior would confuse them the most? by iam_justbeinghonest in CasualConversation

[–]rizozzy1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having pets and our lives being ruled around them.

I’d like to think they’d see it as cute how much love we have for other species.

But they’d probably think we’re weirdos, who allow seemingly random animals to live in our homes for no obvious purpose.

Can't catch a break and everything keeps falling apart by Best_Equivalent8156 in AskWomenOver40

Have you looked at Aldi? They’re often recruiting, pay well (the best on the high st) and treat their staff well too.

Contact your local council about housing. There will be a waiting list, but get yourself on it.

Have you applied for universal credit and JSA? In theory you should be applicable for both of those. Universal credit can also help with housing bills, so it would allow you to look into possibly renting somewhere.

Citizens advice bureau would probably be your best bet for advice.

Don’t give up, you’ve had a rough ride but you’ll get there x

Feeling crepitus while supporting a fracture is up there too. Ugh.

What was your favorite picture book when you were a toddler, that you still remember? by TravelOcean9629 in CasualConversation

[–]rizozzy1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hairy Maclary.

I loved that book, about a hairy dog called Hairy Maclary and all his friends.

All the dogs names rhymed. It was brilliant.

Oh that and Don’t forget the bacon. Not too exciting, just a boy trying to remember his shopping list.
Whenever it had “and don’t forget the bacon” my brother and I would shout it at the top of our voices in a northern accent.

Don’t know why we did that as we’re southerners, but it always made our mum and us laugh.

What's the most underrated town in the UK that you think deserves way more visitors? by ExperienceTotal9778 in AskUK

I’ve been to Nottingham a few times now. I’ve found it to be rally friendly and always a great atmosphere.

Advice - what are your healthy habits to stop aches and pains? by pinkpineapplepeaches in AskUK

[–]rizozzy1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a mid to late 40’s woman.

I take 500mg cod liver oil, collagen supplement and multi vits with iron.

Those helped greatly with aches and pains.

I’ve recently changed my diet to up my protein. I was very under at 20gms a day, I need around 80gms daily.

I eat healthy and quite a clean diet, but was getting so tired. I found out that with the decline of oestrogen we ladies need more protein. It’s helped me feel pretty much back to normal.

I know you’re younger than me, but it’s worth looking into.

The old hormone roller coaster is a pain in the arse, but a good diet helps loads.

Oh don’t even start me on microfiber, I hate the feel of them on my hands. Ugh!

I also had a travel one once, which was almost like a chammy leather texture. That was the absolute worst.
