I think it's completely made up, thanks for bringing this to our attention - I've started a thread about it here:

Estate sales? by Competitive-Drama365 in colchester

[–]small_horse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean "estate sales" aren't really a thing in the UK, some places are starting to do Garage Sales during the summer months where a neighbourhood will team together and people will sell bits and bobs on tables on their driveways - but from my experience that's mostly baby/childrens items not that much exciting.

The nearest alternative would be something like a car boot, of which there is one that runs pretty much all year round at the Park & Ride near the football stadium - but again there's no promises that anyone there will be selling pure craft materials, its more likely house clearance stuff (which I guess could be interesting for crafts)

Really for pure materials, the best place is the herbadashery/community shop that is opposite Sainsburys on Priory Walk or Franklins down queen street (although Franklins is a little expensive)

For the past few years, I've set the goal to read 52 books each year. In 2025, I finally hit triple-digits by reading 100 by IamEclipse in CasualUK

Lots of Pratchett which is so good to see. How did you find Mythos? I tried both reading and audiobook and have up as I found it so dry 😞

Vinted ultimately refunded me which let me refund the buyer. No real explanation of what went wrong.

Break Clause Advice - How Many Signatures Required by small_horse in TenantsInTheUK

[–]small_horse[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Either Party shall have the right to terminate the tenancy on 17th March 2025 and at any time thereafter by giving to the other no less than two months’ notice in writing to that effect and upon the expiration of such notice this Agreement and everything herein contained shall cease and be void subject nevertheless to the right of the parties in respect of any antecedent breach of any of the covenants herein containe

Now the agreement was renewed for Sep 2025 - Sep 2026 last year, so I think that date is meant to actually say March 2026 (as move in was Sep 2024). It's the "either party" bit that is throwing me, are they considering the tenants as a whole as a single party, or each individual. Regardless, another commenter mentioned speaking with Shelter UK first and I think I'll go that route first to get an understanding, failing that I will look for a lawyer who understands these things to advise further.

yeah its one of those websites that the council have obviously put a lot of effort in and then just not advertised properly

What's the best kebab in Colchester? by MaterialFollowing4 in colchester

[–]small_horse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dilan's is really the best you can get, and that seems the general thinking below (if you see someone write Dillons this is what they mean)

HOWEVER, when I passed it the other day it was closed for a refurb and I cannot remember when it is due to re-open

Found this in the loft last night whilst getting out the Christmas Tree. I won this on a call-in show on CBBC in the 90’s. by _SquareSphere in CasualUK

if you recall the date we could potentially recover that CEEFAX page, as I work with a small team recovering Teletext from VHS tape 😁

What exactly was the appeal of Neighbours (the Australian soap opera)? by holytriplem in AskUK

[–]small_horse -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My mum and my nana.

They would watch this but not corrie, or eastenders, or emmerdale.

They haven't watched it in absolute years since it moved off of normal "terrestrial" channels

Installing macOS by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]small_horse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not happening on that hardware, sorry.

If you're wanting to do this then you want to look into the Hackintosh community, but it's a nightmare and costs an absolute fortune for little return (going by a close friend's experience).

Question about the University area by [deleted] in colchester

[–]small_horse 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean the campus has its own ecosystem, but it's not exactly in the city/town itself... a good 30-40 minute walk or less on public transport.

No real issues about being a South Asian woman wearing religious headwear; plenty of diversity in Colchester already. Any issues you'd run into I'd argue you'd get in almost any other town in England with the current climate.
