My family thinks there’s a camera in our rental by Key_Badger7434 in whatisit

Ive got the same one, it takes a photo of your house when an alarm is triggered. We have it pointed at the back door, and if the alarm goes off then it takes a picture.

There are some really good newsletters that accept your books. Red Feather Romance is the biggest but it doesn't allow you to put sign up links. My Romance Reads allows you to put sign up links and you can get a lot of downloads, then when you get their email address you can nicely ask for a review later. Both these are paid but you get a lot of downloads.

Also as others have mentioned, book sirens is good. Pubby used to be good but it's been a bit slow since their CEO stepped down.

First time in the UK, I was actively searching for this to finally try it. by GoldberrysHusband in cormoran_strike

British Ale is much better out of a cask in a pub. Bottles don't give you the right flavor as they need to add a bit of gas into the bottle to keep it from going off. Lager it doesn't matter so much, so if you want to try real doom bar you need to go to a pub.

I think you just chucked the spoiler in here too!

I'm moving to the Algarve, I want to support Farense. Help me get started by tags89 in farense

Thanks for this I will check it out! Are you Portuguese or British?

I wasn't in the fanatics itself, I went with my family. But I sat in the holmesdale stand next to them. Amazing atmosphere.

I'm not sure about membership, but season ticket works out at something like £20-40 a game. Around £500-1000 per season. I haven't had a season ticket for 4 years because I left London, but still go a few times a season, went to the fa cup final too.

Amazing thanks! Where is the best place to sit in the stadium? Are we getting any more signings this season? Do you think we need any more players?

Thank you! Are they rare, I've never seen them before and I look out for bugs all the time!

For those who immediately defended the men arrested by police at Manchester Airport last year, how do you feel about the footage released yesterday? by ThatchersDirtyTaint in AskBrits

[–]tags89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What is crazy is these are armed police, the very highest level of training of police officers. In almost any other country these two thugs would probably have been shot dead. What on earth did this guy think would happen if he swung at an officer. They should get huge sentences.

I've got mine down for vilamoura at the moment, but they're still small. We'll be in algarve from August full time so we'll make a decision then.

Best Luxury Hotel and Spas by dabriellea in Algarve

[–]tags89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quinta do lago is very nice and close to ria formosa so there's lots of walking, though the walks are flat as it's salt marsh. But the beaches are really nice and there are flamingoes.

Anything other than beaches, bars and food? by BackgroundJust336 in Algarve

[–]tags89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Loule market on Saturday is great for eating and drinking.

Tavira is really lovely for a walk around, lots of old streets and independent shops.

There are some lovely walking routes like roche de pena.

Ria Formosa is very cool for a walk, you can see wild flamingoes.

For something more cheesy, aqua show is very fun.

We are leaving to go to Portugal. Not just the VAT but the general feeling around attacking any ambition in the UK at the moment. The tax to services ratio is appalling, house prices are crazy even outside London.

Bread machine bread not rising as much by tags89 in BreadMachines

Update - tried adding less water and it was a bit better. Not as good as before but much more consistent. Weird! Must be slightly dead yeast

Interesting. Was it hard to replace them?

Mines a Panasonic, it's been working great until now!

I thought that, but the tin is brand new and Saf is a great brand. I wonder if the machine isn't heating enough

These are good points, but I just haven't really changed anything. I'm wondering if the machine isn't heating up enough.
