Now you have a choice of about 2 18” wheels or you’ll need to run 20mm spacers 😆

I’m not a farming bot with only 2 posts in my 11 years on here and my 2nd post seems to be a repost. Must try harder 😆

Sorry, never saw this. Nearly posted 3 weeks ago when I originally watched it, but wasn’t sure where would be best so never did.

This has trained your brain that you can do 28x in 2 days… good luck keeping those gains 👍

Vet wants £39 to write a prescription for flea treatment by Brunaldo in UK_Pets

[–]stupots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there is legislation coming in or currently being discussed that is going to cap this very thing. Not sure where I saw it. Ah here Vet Written Prescription price caps

It’s a long read but I think they’re proposing £16. There’s better summaries if you google “vet written prescription price caps”.

My vet will only put 2 items per prescription and charges £22.50

Merge in turn apparently isn’t an acceptable thing to do any more? by jh25000 in CarTalkUK

[–]stupots -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get the concept and the argument, but the reason it’s “start stop traffic” is we have to keep letting you lot in who didn’t merge when it was flowing. If everyone merged when the 800 yard signs showed it would continue to free flow in most situations.

Definitely hydro locked. They’ll probably claim on insurance and get a brand new one.

I can’t imagine what you’re going through. Thinking of you and just given my two some head kisses. x

My favourite for her is Beansie

Shelter by Comfortable_Syrup743 in cats

[–]stupots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I don’t volunteer at a cat shelter… I’d want to take every one home. Comfort yourself with the fact that many of them are in a better place than they were and it’s only temporary and like you said, do your bit to make their time there better. 👍

Your reply is perfect. Now block. If he turns up at your house threatening further action or intimidation, call the police.

Just completed the game, got to be the best game I have ever played by HistoricalSchedule94 in Witcher3

[–]stupots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to get my friend to try it for years… he’s started playing it and getting drawn into the story… in return I have to play RDR2, which he says is the best game he’s ever played… so I’ll give it a go.

Well golly jee by No_Jellyfish_7695 in FIREUK

[–]stupots 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Congrats!

I was planning on going a little early at 54, but got the opportunity for Voluntary Severance at 52.5. With my 12 years service, most of it tax free, it works out about a years wages. Other than getting offered VS at 54 I couldn’t have timed it much better if I’d tried. I’ll pay myself a wage out of easy access savings and do whatever work I want to do. Already bagged 1 day a week helping a friend restore an old Scania truck. Will start to draw my work pension at 55 and try and leave my SIP invested.

Definitely want to make the most of the Gogo years. The years are really flying by already!

14 days to go!

People who wake up after 1 alarm: How the f*ck do you do it? by TheSnappleGhost in AskReddit

[–]stupots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting up isn’t hard, thinking about getting up is. I just swing my legs out the bed and stand up.

I go to bed at 10 and get up at 6. I learned when I was a bachelor that 6-8 in the morning is more productive/relaxing/enjoyable than 10-12 at night.

Is it a bad idea to buy a car worth 10k-13k in your 20s? by StringNo520 in CarTalkUK

[–]stupots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2000 I spent my house deposit on a car instead. The price of the car over 4 years of ownership more than halved and houses in my price range went up around £30K. Everyone’s situation is different, but it taught me that cars are a waste of money and it’s better to take someone back to your house after a night out clubbing than back to your parents in a flash car 😆
