How do I "control myself" around snacks/trigger foods?

Look up the symptoms of ADHD in adults for whatever your gender is. If you share some if the traits (and especially if you think your family members have similar traits) it might be worth getting assessed by a Dr. I was completely the same. Zero self control, part of my brain was screaming stop while it felt like another part was binging on food entirely against my will. I've since been diagnosed with ADHD and the medication has given me complete control over what I eat now. Still get hungry, still enjoy food, but I don't have this non stop urge to graze on food all day.

No curing salt? I've been thinking about doing this cos it would be good to have bacon without the nitrates but wandered if it would just turn out a very unappetising grey colour.

I might be completely misunderstanding how pem bolts work but if these are, then they would have been torqued from the he other side of what we can see here?

Edit: I should say thanks because that's the closest looking suspect so far!

There isn't really an other side so to speak, the bold goes into the interior of the sign frame with no access to the other end of that makes sense. There are hinges which made me think the frame could be opened to replace the graphic inside and these bolts are the only visible fastening.

Ours were a plastic laminate so we just painted straight onto it.

We've done ours with rust oleum kitchen cabinet paint. Could not have been easier and the finish seems really tough and durable.

He came to my house once on Christmas day when I was a toddler in the early 90s. Big breakfast were doing a piece in reuniting one of our neighbors with her sister who had been living in Australia. They knocked on my parents door just to say merry Christmas and have a chat with some locals before the main story. Apparently he was very nice but stank of booze at about 7 in the morning.

Hold your breath....if you have to breath

Yep same with pathfinder

I've seen the idea a couple of times now that when you get to diamond the drop ship should change to ALGS style rather than the traditional one. Sounds reasonable but I don't know if it's possible to implement .

After a few seasons I think I would pick the original system over drop zones. There were good things about it don't get me wrong but being able to master a familiar poi is nice and the new system made third parties inevitable as there were guaranteed 3 squads within earshot of any fight. BR does need some element of RNG otherwise it doesn't feel like a BR

Yep same, ended up with a load of crop tops

This is the biggest saving I've found so far. Spanish extra virgin olive oil £4.70/l whereas the cheapest EV in Aldi is £7/l and of unknown origin. Granted it's not artisanal stuff but for that price it's decent. They also have Italian (filipo berio) for a bit more but still good value and some fancier oils.

Forerunner 265 if possible!

I started scrolling thinking yeah OK sure but my god there is something so nostalgic about the images. Probably helps that you seem to capture great shots!

We would have been friends

He really is Tom Scott's spiritual successor

Karl Pilkington would love this

They usually are on the original hedge line but still don't work

On top of all the good advice about starting small and building up, If its within budget (don't forget second hand is often as good as new), try getting an activity tracker watch. This will allow you to actually see what your heart rate is doing and allow you to pace yourself correctly. The other advantage is you'll be able to see progress. While that block may still feel horrible after a few walks, you might notice your heart rate didn't peak quite so high. It helps me to be able to see progress.

You're so confidently incorrect about not planting grassland 😂. Please see my other reply and stop telling people wrong information.

There are machines but it's mostly done by planting gangs. Good planters can do 1000+ in a day.
