Images of items I have purchased (except trainers)

[Junglist]

I only ever owned 1 pair of Etnies shoes when I was about 14/15 but I actually had my mum send them back as I didn't like the bottom of the shoe for skating as it had no board feel when I stood on it.

I did love etnies jeans though!

OLED is such a game changer for me. I’ve got last year’s C9 and I can’t go back to a normally LED TV. My only complaint is the magic remote as it’s so damn sensitive for bringing up the cursor. I wish there was a way to disable it unless I press a specific button to call it up.

Put it on a table

Hmm during a TV replacement/swap I kept my old remote, and I haven't bothered pairing it to the new TV yet.

Cursor no longer comes up, and it's been pretty great as it would always trigger before!

We just bought lots of green stuff to try and add some life to the house.

How long they'll last is any-ones guess!

By we you mean she

Downward spiral, soon all windowsills will have them, the hallways, tabletops... You will start to contribute to the regrowth of the atmosphere though.

Totally she! If I had my way we'd have no plants and astroturf in the garden. But she's a ecologist and that just wont fly

They're bloody everywhere already and in all the places you've mentioned. Getting these plants was A) My compromise to get rid of the plants I really dislike and B) butter her up so if I do randomly decide to buy a console over the next few weeks I can point at all the green bits

If the name fits...

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under!

(not quite my name but it was the first thing in my mind when I saw all the plants!)

The small ones need next to zero care. Water once in a long while and your fine.

However they are pest traps if an aphid gets near them each aphid can reproduce by itself daily and will reproduce 10 times before dying.

So

Day 1 - 1 aphid
Day 2 - 2
Day 3 - 4
Day 4 - 8

Now you won't notice them as they are literally tiny and say they go unnoticed for a few weeks until their numbers are more numerous.

Day 30 - 5.4 million

Yeah that's right. So make sure you check them regularly for pests. Especially if you have them near doors or windows that will be left open even for a few hours.

Just get a few pet ladybirds. Jobs a good 'un.

I don't know how iPhones work, can they not be reset? It would only show if they booted it up with your install. Anyway, as long as you reported it stolen, the IMEI gets blocked and it's not much use. I guess they can sell it abroad or something though?

I don't know what they did to it, but the IMEI was indeed blocked, phone company notified, so on. I can only assume they're shipping them off to Africa or something.

I don't like many plants but I've some how acquired lots of succulents around the house. Including these ones we probably have about 10 dotted around and a few Aloes. Love simple hardy plants!

good tips about the aphids though, appreciated. I think that's what we got on one of our old
Plants at our old house and it eventually died

You might find it better to soak them instead of watering them. My wife has done that with the majority of our plants with great success. The only ones that don't get soaked are the enormous ones. She's also opened a botanical garden in our living room.

 

[Ahleckz]

Most succulents prefer to be watered from the bottom, so take the plant out of the decroative pot, pour some water in and pop the plant back in.

 

[Junglist]

Yeah we she often waters them for a little tray at the bottom of their decorative pots and let them suck up all the water.
She's already walking around the house placing them in spots and saying "we need new ones for here"

No problem bunging plants in every crevice but when I want to put surround sound speakers up, I'm the bad guy and making the house look ugly!

 

[IvanDobskey]

New fascias, barge boards, soffits and guttering..



Not the most exciting purchase but money well spent all the same

Haha! Exactly this. We went to Ikea recently and she bought a huge house plant and heaps of little ones. I'm picking up a soundbar tonight and she said "that's not going in the living room, there's no room!". Psh!

See you need to learn. Move from big floor standing speakers, and then after years of complaints a sound bar will be insanely well received (although sounding worse for music, it's much better during films)

I feel we need to talk about phrasing

I need to do this, which company did you use?

 

[IvanDobskey]

Local company called simply Roofline. Cost just over 5k. Took them 5 days of hard work to get done though.
