Escobarp 1,528 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 This is the place that lidl are selling up here for 1.59 a can the difference in prices is unbelievable. And it clearly states on the can who is making it. Makes no sense as will surely devalue their own product?

Not really worth the risk, but if its necessary, I'd put a few flags under and around it. Or empty a bag of sand onto the grass to protect it, then scrape off after.

Although I know from experience that he is the sort to pile loads on and have it raging rather than a satisfactory moderate glowing fire. In other words, partly his own fault I reckon.

Apparently, in years gone by, the folk in my street and adjacent one, would have a November bonfire on the amenity grass at the end of the road. Neighbours would lift the turf and set it to oneside, and relay it afterwards. Always struck me as being a top thing to do.

ErnestTurnip 178 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Due to one thing and another I did one day of not drinking after drunkenly posting I was going to join gonzo on his 100 day mission. The "one thing or another" does seem to have been around for almost 40 years though. Wonder how many regulars in this thread could knock it on the head tomorrow if they said so. Did it instantly with ciggies after being a pretty heavy smoker and have had the odd one since without going back but ale is different as is every drug with different people. It's seems to be part of what a lot of people do on here and are involved with but at the risk of being fucking Mumsnet could you give up it up for a year with no issue and then crack on?

Not in Crawley 452 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 See i could forgo drinking at the weekend, its the couple of glasses of wine or beers after work that I enjoy, otherwise I either keep working or just worry about the work I have to do.

Rudy 1,333 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I could give it up no problem, when I’m working I barely have time. Can’t have a few at night if I’m driving at the risk of being pulled the next morning , can’t drink after a game because I have to drive home. Its rare that I get a weekend off. Lockdown was a false Dawn really because I could work from home and it was lovely weather so I would put a bit away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
