I need some new trainers because the current ones are literally falling to pieces, where's the best place to look that isn't Sports Direct?

Last Easter was the greatest Easter ever. The first lockdown had just started, Tesco was deserted, and I bought four huge Lindor Easter eggs on Easter Monday for £2 each. My only regret is that I didn't buy more.

yep

Can't believe people are exciting about buying boxes which are about 20% chocolate in them by weight. Absolute scam, just buy mini or creme eggs or thin chocolate sheets.

hmm would I rather buy a creme egg for 50p or a Lion egg with 2 bars for.... also 50p

BTW, I hope this finally puts to bed the discussion about whether or not Glenn Greenwald is a fascist now:

Answer: he is.

I don't know about fascist but he is dumb as all poo poo if he thinks Marine le Pen was running to the left of Macron, let alone Mélenchon

I don't know why we had this the last time, and I still don't know why we give a flying gently caress now. It's like posting that video of Tucker Carlson chasing a guy in the street. Why? Who cares?

it’s because if someone posted a video of Tucker no-one would care but ~for some reason~ any time someone mentions Glenn the thread fills up with posts defending him with the world’s most obvious ad hominems

Paying for a cat is utterly insane when there are RSPCA and other centres rammed full of them needing good homes.

there's usually still a fee if you're adopting, to cover stuff like microchipping/vaccinations/any other medical stuff

we got a pair though Cats Protection and I think we paid £80, still much better than getting them off Gumtree or wherever

Surely no human being alive has ever paid the actual listed price for a Dominos pizza

no sober one, at least

e: I don't know about Pizza Hut but a Domino's store has an overall ideal food cost of 20% across a whole day's sales

this means that a £20 pizza and sides meal deal might cost £5-7 in ingredients (depending on the sides, chicken wings are more expensive but potato wedges are dirt cheap) but a single large pizza for £15 is about £2-2.50 (most of which is cheese, and some of the meat toppings)

I don't remember all the prices since it's been a long time since I ran a store but I do remember that a case of wedges cost about £12 and worked out to something like 32 portions with a menu price of £3.49 each

(bear in mind though that food cost isn't the only cost, labour should be something between 20-25% if your service is good, there's mileage for drivers, overheads etc. the store I ran had a profit target from our franchisee of 12% which we hit more often than not)

Potentially stupid question but we just got back from the local shop after picking up a packet of flora but the date on it is from 5 days ago.

It doesn't say if the date is a best before or use by date or anything, so we're not sure if it's safe to eat.

It's flora so we figure dairy based stuff could be risky. Anyone got a clue?

you could take it back, even if you don't have a receipt they'll know you were in today

Does anyone have any other fun cocktail recipes? I'm really enjoying this whole cocktail shaker thing. Though I've got a load of cream based ones like baileys that don't seem to go with anything except coffee and whipped cream.

if you can make it a flavour of ice-cream you can make a cocktail with it and Baileys:

creme de cacao/chocolate schnapps
coffee liqueur (Tia Maria or Kahlua)
nut-based liqueurs like Amaretto or Frangelico
creme de banane
creme de menthe
the honey Jack Daniels (maybe even mead if you can get hold of some)
Kirsch or other cherry liqueur
butterscotch schnapps
Malibu

and you can combine stuff like Baileys + creme de banane + butterscotch schnapps for a banoffee flavour, or Baileys + Amaretto + cherry brandy for a Bakewell tart

e: once at a house party I attempted to make a mojito but ended up having to make a few substitutions

it was rumgin and sodalemonade and mintbasil and brown sugar

not recommended

the drunkest I ever got was in Nottingham on a friend's stag do, thanks to jelly shots at Cucamara

I got out of a taxi at a big junction because I was going to puke everywhere (so I've been told, I don't remember a thing) and it drove off because there was a massive queue behind. I still have utterly no idea how I got back to the B&B we were staying in, not knowing what it was called and having never been to Nottingham before so I couldn't give directions
