Oh no, that's worse; I hope you manage to get a good nap later ๐ฉท
Read this initially as "cheese restaurant" and my interest was PIQUED
๐ what's the price on that shingrix, man?
I genuinely hope this is a swamp monster with leather bat wings but I fear it won't be.
Sometimes people really struggle to tell whether you're yolking when you use an egg pun

Oh haha just saw this, and I would like to state for the record that stone is not, actually, particularly insulating against the cold.
Also British walls are cold! Idk if I have just lived/stayed in cold places but for a country with their climate I did not experience as much insulation as I would have anticipated!
It's just fun to take the piss out of their Death Loo Outlets tbh
It's more that it'll deliver a hell of a shock, whereas 110 is just less oomph. But it is also more efficient, and ours isn't lower for safety reasons, it's lower because that's what appliances/light bulbs could handle (the US was a very early adopter of electricity; UK installed a bit later).

Oh yeah, stuff here is still going 10-20% over asking, multiple competing offers, within days of listing (and I'm in Westchester, so on the one hand, I guess we'll be able to sell our house someday, but on the other it was a very long slog to buy it!)
I find it's kind of similar to swimming for me, in that it really is a whole body workout and I get tired, but nothing *hurts*
I really needed this little treat today... ๐ฅฒ

I would love to see this data mapped by location, because it feels so opposite to my area!
Likewise, yikes!!
Hot Pie Take: cinnamon--or worse, nutmeg--do not belong in blueberry pie.
I saw a painting I *love* the other day, and it's about 3x what I can comfortably afford and I think the artist should be paid that! I just don't think I can be the one to pay her.
