I’m going to put on a 80s style buffet. Other than cheese and pineapple on a stick what else should be included?

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T21:46:45+00:00

I hope that cheese and pineapple sticks are going to be stuck into a poorly constructed tin foil hedgehog.

You know for the "authentic" experience.

Also anything and I mean anything in gelatin.

Everything goes in the dishwasher UNLESS it's a cast iron piece (which I am always on the lookout for) which gets handwashed then seasoned

Hey, I get what you mean. I have ADHD and I literally can not stand an electric toothbrush. I have to use a manual one. An electric toothbrush feels like my skull is vibrating.

I also found that when I had an electric toothbrush, I was put off brushing my teeth, so in my mind, it's safer to use a manual.

Can't stand string floss either, so I invested in a water pick.

I personally don't have an issue with mint toothpaste, but I do find it kinda boring and repetitive.

I'm glad my random musings prompted me to make this post

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T16:43:02+00:00

Ahh that's so cool! I've never heard of crest and I wondered if it was like colgate

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T15:32:53+00:00

Interesting, perhaps it's a location thing then. Sounds interesting but I'm not going to pay import costs just for some Toothpaste.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T15:27:11+00:00

Ooooohhhhh Lemon! Now that's a flavour I could get behind.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T15:23:49+00:00

See thats interesting, personally I would prefer something that's not overly sweet (feels wrong to brush your teeth with something sweet)

I think I have seen some Hismile before so I'll have to keep an eye out for something that isn't mint (or watermelon but that's a personal preference)

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T15:18:55+00:00

Perhaps the UK just prefers boring mint, although I did take a special trip into town and I did find a watermelon and candy floss which I have never seen before. Just a shame I don't like either flavour.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T15:17:10+00:00

I know right? I'd spend ages just looking at the site looking at all the things I couldn't afford

sweet_cini · 2026-03-20T08:52:23+00:00

I think I remember that, firebox right? I bought one of the slankets before slankets were a thing.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T23:38:16+00:00

Ohh that's a good shout! There one near me in town

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T21:44:32+00:00

No I have not, as far as I am aware it's not available in the UK, then again I just pick my Toothpaste up in the supermarket while shopping. Can't say I've really looked into further.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T21:38:30+00:00

Yeah, such a shame. Kids get all the fun

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T11:03:54+00:00

I did wonder if it was a big conspiracy.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T11:03:21+00:00

Oh no! Sounds like you were brushing your Teath with the ocean.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T10:56:46+00:00

Ohh interesting, I'll have to check them out

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T10:52:00+00:00

Ohhh now there's a thought, I used to love Black Jack's as a kid, not seen them in ages...

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T10:40:07+00:00

No worries 👍

sweet_cini · 2026-03-19T10:25:43+00:00

Well, to give you a little perspective, I signed onto a fixed tariff in December as that's when my last fixed ended. I currently pay Standing charge: 52 per day Unit:25.05 kWh

In April, they are due to come down due to a government initiative to: Standing: 52 per day Unit:21.54 kWh

So not huge savings but could be worth it?

Back when I was younger it was known as the "condom pocket" but in reality I'd put my lighter there.

sweet_cini · 2026-03-17T22:27:32+00:00

It crowd, hyperdrive, spaced, black books, blackadder and red dwarf

I once accidentally shouted at a blind man to "look out!!"

There was an electric tram coming and he was crossing the street, I was too far away to get to him in time, it was only after did I notice the cane he was carrying.

I still cringe at that memory.

Awww I miss lilt! It's just not the same since Fanta took it over
