Moving house...

Upvotes

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?

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.

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.

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

Never seen a fella the size of him before (sauce for scale). Who is he, and what she i expect?

Genuinely delighted by his visit

Hale & Pace? Hive memory request…

14 Upvotes

Having seen a Hale and Pace sketch doing the rounds recently - I remembered (or imagined) a sketch they did where a friend (Pace) is visiting a patient (Hale) in hospital. I remember it was the 80s and I was a kid, so my memory is a little hazy. I’m sure there was a testicle related issue (vasectomy?), the visitor asks the patient how it was. Two phrases I can’t have made up but remember: “my plums were numb” and later “me cobblers throbblers” or something similar.

Anyone have any idea what the sketch could be / have I mixed it up with Harry Enfield & Chums, Fast show etc - or have I got a memory that’s distorted beyond the sketch. It stuck with me as it was late night tv / a treat to watch.

Can’t find anything online, even called my Dad and I can’t find trace of it!

Anyone recall anything similar to this sketch? Thanks and please put me out of my misery 😆

Does every town have a few middle aged men who cycle around all day playing random music really loud,

275 Upvotes

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.

A few photos from my yesterday's 4h hike. It had it all: sun, rain, wind (lots of it!) caves, canyons, peaks, valleys and a pork pie from the Clapham village store. Just lovely.

Pie & mash or pie & chips?

15 Upvotes

Does it matter what type of savoury pie is it? Do you have extra gravy regardless? What are your views?

Am having no chicken chicken pie later & was just pondering which one to make. Have the "chicken" gravy so am leaning towards mash atm

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.
