Try buying the masala powder by Everest, can maybe get it in Indian shops, then just add a quarter of a teaspoon to normal tea, it's amazing. Way better than any of the "chai" teabags I've tried.

Here's a pretty good list of some of the best: http://descrier.co.uk/politics/nigel-farages-whyimvotingukip-twitter-hashtag-promptly-backfires/

My favourite: "#WhyImVotingUkip because I'm pretty sure Nigel Farage is actually a Sasha Baron Cohen spoof character and I'd like to see this play out." https://twitter.com/MySharona1987/statuses/469035867546615808

Not exactly sure this is a success.

If you saw last nights Watchdog you'll know what happens to a lot of this stuff

They cracking down on VPNs hard this last year. I was living abroad and up until a year ago, any VPN or smart DNS service worked.

Now they're constantly getting blacklisted and even talking to NordVPN they said they're basically in a cat and mouse game where their IP's are just being banned when detected

If you have an Android phone, I cannot recommend Weather Timeline enough, for its incredible forecasts.

It'll do things like, recommend you take an umberella to work with you if it detects there will be rain later in the day.

This morning, it predicted 15° by lunchtime, so we knew to wear plenty of thin layers to be able to adjust for that, but likely drop back down during the evening commute.

I was typing a large response to your sensitivity question... but then I remembered I know pretty much nothing.

Basically, it's the 2 different types of touch screen tech

I used these and they’re not easy to get off. Put one on the bottom and one on the underside of the lid too if you know it’s him. He probably won’t notice all three.

Honestly, it's a myth perpetuated by people who have never been up north. :) The weather is practically the same as where I'm from (/r/Hastings) and even the economic situation is identical.

Yorkshire is hands down one of my favourite places (no wonder it was voted best tourist destination in Europe) and Sheffield or Hebden Bridge can't be beat. Anyone who thinks the north is grim should see the breathtaking view from the top of Stoodley Pike.

/r/learnprogramming and /r/Python are great. First place to start is installing python followed by someting to type in, pycharm community is my favourite. Feel free to pm me if you want.

The book’s only a few quid for a used one on Amazon, it was all I needed & I was pretty much ‘incurable’. Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking (Penguin Health Care & Fitness) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/014013378X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_KV72zbK018YQB

And for the days when you can't move as well....

just had a brief look on amazon and you can get three delivered to germany for £7.50 postage, if you're stuck

>do you know if you risk being terminated for using a proxy?

Bit fucking extreme.

Although if you mean do you risk having your account banned... Technically yes, in practice, no. They don't care, and it'd be a war with their customers, and it's a war they'd lose.

Although I'd advise using a proper VPN (or professional DNS authentication redirection service) rather than the P2P or free stuff like Hulu and Zenmate. I love PIA.

Aussie Netflix has some stuff that's Amazon Exclusive in the UK. US and Canada both have different catalogues.

It was this one, although they've resolved the issue and its back up to £105..

Could be worth them trying something like this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pestbye%C2%AE-Battery-Operated-Activated-Repellent/dp/B004YCUT4W/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=water+cat+scarer&qid=1667115567&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIyLjc5IiwicXNhIjoiMi4xMCIsInFzcCI6IjEuNjgifQ%3D%3D&sr=8-4

Less noisy and the kids play with it in the summer. Keeps the cats away too.

If your windows are cold and condensate I can well recommend the film you can put over the frame. It’s super cheap, get more than you need as the first run you’ll possibly balls it up. Home Window Insulation Kit... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00NVI3DV6?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Don't even have to spend that much. £15 for one that folds down into something not that much larger than a disposable.

> There's nothing wrong with them if used correctly.

The major problem is that they're just terrible BBQs for cooking on.

There are much better options for a portable BBQ for camping and fishing. Things like this are barely bigger than a couple of disposables, and don't cost much more than 2 or 3 disposables, but last for much longer.

Or for not much more money you can get one that folds into a small bag, I have one of these and it's great.

There is a great book about the design and implementation of it. See here.

The loose-leaf strong Earl Grey is amazing, and you can get a big bag of it for about £8 on Amazon too...

"We're using more in total because there are more people."

It's hard to believe that the national use has increased given that the population is only around ten percent higher. Are you talking on a global scale? Or is there some giant industrial/commercial use of power that we're not accounting for?

It’s a bit short, and a bit baggy. I found him a chewbacca one which is a bit better.

Can I recommend my friend’s mum’s book, recently published after the manuscript was found after her death. It’s quite a lovely read, even for those who have no intention of keeping chickens. “keeping hens: a chatty guide to chickens”

So I bought one of these and it’s been really quite good. Much better than doing it at the petrol station in all weathers, if their pumps work at all (which the ones round me often didn’t hence the purchase). Does cars, motorbikes (obviously), bikes and balls too. Charges off USB and has a built in fairly bright light so you can find the valves in the dark if you need.

You guys need a butter bell. Sits on the counter and because the butter doesn't come into contact with the air it doesn't go bad.

The one I have is this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/T2-Tea-World-Christmas-Countdown/dp/B08JM1931G I have been pleased with most days so far. Particularly there was a strawberries and cream green tea that I might have to get a box of!

I wouldn't be able to see anything without my specs!

Hope that link works, if not let me know and I'll try again later not on my mobile.

I live in Wisconsin. I bought a variety pack off of Amazon for $14 and free shipping. Shipping is around three to four weeks. I hope they are good. Here's the link

I get mine through Amazon. Try this link.

Are you looking through amazon.co.uk or amazon.com?

CyberGhost is the best VPN if you want something free but with a good service. However, if you don't mind paying ~£4 a month, then use Private Internet Access. I use it and it's very reliable, easy to use and has good customer support.

IMO Ready meal curries are generally similar to typical indian restaurant takeaway curries. I learnt to cook them this way thanks to https://www.amazon.co.uk/Curry-Secret-Indian-Restaurant-Meals/dp/0716021919 . However it's actually easier and as cheap to buy the supermarket ones.

I'll have to give that a try. Now it's just the demisting problem, although I did get one of these to help with that, not really had it long enough to give a real opinion, but it does seem to help. A lot cheaper than getting the air con fixed at least.

I'd never even heard of the brand before, I think that was the only product of theirs that they carried. Are their crackers any good?

Found them on Amazon UK.

Expensive, but possibly just about worth it
