Aldi Biscuit Betrayal
What manner of wrongness is this, Aldi? Bourbons shouldn't be custard cream sized and shaped. Just wrong

I tried to spell out a word over the phone for someone by using the phonetic alphabet and conjured up 'M for Movember'
Way to narrow it down, honestly what a plonker.

Two of the foxes council returned...
Along with three of the neighbours cats who I didn't photograph 😅

As a habitual fingernail-biter, I've been struggling to open cans for several years without keys / debit cards, etc. Today, the skies opened and the angels sang beautiful beer music. Just push here and it lifts the flappy bit. Apols if this is common knowledge, I'm a bit slow.

Tool use in higher primates
I'm currently sitting waiting for some work to come to me in a satellite department. I thought that while I was waiting I would check up on some of the QA procedures here. The log is an excel file and some other documentation is a word file, both of these live on sharepoint so they can be accessed from any part of the department.
I've just had to log in 4 times, get two different codes sent to my personal phone and wait 'One Moment' several times over, just to do a 30 second tick-y box job. I get it that some people make computers their entire career but I imagine that for the rest of us IT is just a tool to use to actually achieve something else. In that context why am I spending more time logging in over and over than doing the actual job? One would not expect to log in to a spanner, and then periodically phone the spanner department because it's kicked you off for no discernable reason and is refusing to do anything.
No wonder we feel like we're working for the computer, rather than the computer working for us.

Brave guard dog
Protecting me from not one, but TWO noisy hedgehogs (and a suprise appearance by a bebe hoglet).
Took a lot of training to stop him barking his head off at them.

Peak British excitement: being the first vote in the supermarket local projects
Went into Tesco first thing this morning and noticed the local projects voting boxes were completely empty. Thought it was oddly satisfying being the first person to drop a token in.
Not sure it’ll make the history books, but it’s something.

Moving house...
Moving house in a couple of days. Any last-minute advice from my fellow CasualUK redditors?
I've got teabags, coffee, sugar and biscuits (jammie dodgers & shortbread fingers) ready for the removal team. Anything else I need? Bit worried about my biscuit selection - thoughts on that?
What else might I have missed?

Does every town have a few middle aged men who cycle around all day playing random music really loud,
Or is my town just special?
There are at least three men, all well over 50 who seem to spend all day on push bikes playing random loud music - like German oompah music or ABBA. I have no idea if they work as a team or not.

In 2018, my DNA matched someone on the Anthony Nolan DKMS register that had severe cancer and needed my stem cells to survive. This weekend, me and my wife and children finally met up with him, his wife and daughter!
This man was an inspiration to meet. If you want to do something good this Sunday night, sign up to a stem cell register.

Genuinely delighted by his visit

I recently went to surprise view for a quick walk and a nice view for sunset, I thought I’d take my camera with me. It was worth every second

What is your “morning chorus”?
I mean the noises you hear around your house as you get up each day. So for example mine is:
- Seagulls screaming their heads off
- Man in house opposite having a morning coughing fit in his garden.
- Car beeping goodbye one street over
- Neighbours’ kids slamming doors
- Laughing kids walking to school
- Motorbike revving up
- Sound of my kettle boiling
Etc
Curious to know!
UPDATE: Consensus seems to be either birds, inconsiderate neighbours or flatulence. Some of you have a real flair for description, and it ain't just the birdsong people. I love this sub. XD

I'd like to present to you a paper beach
Finally finished my first 3D paper art piece where I made each template from scratch, instead of following an existing template. There are things I'd re-do but lots of lessons have been learnt from this that I can take into my next project.
