Try and find yourself a new phone deal where the ear buds get thrown in for free. The ones that came in the package when I bought my Pixel 6 phone a couple years back are great. (Worth £100 apparently, must be a loss leader for them).

Well, what do ya know? Well, Whad’ya Know. That worked. Ta. Why would that be then? (If you can be bothered to explain in laymen's terms). Clearing cashed images and files didn't work, clearing cookies and site data did.

Ta. I'll give it a go.

Afraid not, a Shropshire butchers finest. Never thought to try actually. Anyone else done so? Guessing it involves mincing up liver, I'm not sure what else.

My turn. Steve. Why is my Condensed view no longer condensed? Like it always was until suddenly it wasn't last night.

Ditto. I'd be hard pressed to choose between them and Black Pudding. Ain't pigs great?!

Disappointing Plans to make phone use safer for children watered down WWW.BBC.CO.UK The MP behind the bill says proposals have been altered in a bid to gain government support.

How about going old school and switching to rollies with a cardboard roach? At least the litter would be biodegradable then.

So, in case anyone was wondering; the goose was victorious. The eagle gave up and buggered off after 20 minutes apparently. I just heard it from the horse's mouth, the bloke who took the photo, being interviewed. Make of that what you will.

Something for them to hang on to.

What’s your policy re. music in work vehicles?
sime42 replied to Mick Dempsey's topic in General chat
Depends on the way your mind works I believe. I always have something on, either music or radio. It doesn't often distract me. It's normally the other way round; there's something on that I really want to listen to and I get pissed off because I've missed the gist of it due to being too busy thinking about something or other. Same if I'm working on something at home, I have to stop doing what I'm doing if I want to listen properly. -
All of the above! Got to be worth a try. Litter is a filthy scourge in this country. Some people are a lost cause though, they seem perfectly happy to wallow in their own shite. I've seen some disgusting back gardens, and on the other side of the fence, (if they back onto waste/council/common land), it's even worse.

I think any and all fermented foods are great for gut, immune system and general health, (apart from the salt). I have seen a low salt recipe that uses wine instead, never tried it though. Alcohol being the obvious exception!

Pork and Cabbage, (like Pork and Beans), is a great marriage. Pork and sour cabbage is a heavenly marriage. The fattier the meat is, the sourer the cabbage can be, it just cuts through it perfectly. Eastern Europe is the place for all that good stuff, they love it. In Transylvania theres a great stuffed cabbage dish, with pork mince, sauerkraut and lots of Dill. It's a beauty.

That's about right. The next time you try it you'll be more towards the left of your scale there. By try 5 I'd wager you'll love it. If you're a fan of chilli and garlic then I'd follow Peds' advice and go for Kimchi, the added dimensions make it even better.

Next to no fluid required. The salt sucks a lot of water out of the cabbage as part of the process. (Osmosis?) You sometimes need to add a small quantity of brine, but only if the cabbage is a bit old. It always comes out lovely and crunchy though. It's somewhat of an acquired taste probably, but my missus has it now so I have to fight her for it!
-
Yes it's homemade. It's pretty easy to make; lots of cabbage, some salt and some spices/herbs. Then just leave it for a couple months.

Good heavens. That's a bit harsh Davey. My son split most of it. To be fair to him I didn't think he did a bad job actually, for a five year old, with knotty old floor boards. I stand to be corrected but I don't believe that kindling has to be split with military precision to be effective. Is this like the Zelensky rocking up without a suit thing?

Brilliant. Any amusing anecdotes from the day?
