    Pizza crusts, do you eat them

    It's been a long time since I ate a pizza but I seem to remember it depended on whether there was any topping on the crust. I only liked thin and crispy anyway but chucked the crust if it was just bare without any on it

    Premium Bonds - If you post to say how much you've won, please also say how much you have invested.

    My wife and I have the full amount in and there's never been a month we havn't won something (several years now ). Best we've had is a 1k win so that was nice. Apparently there's only 4.84% that are luckier than we are Anyway it looks like with the next BoE meeting this week it's time to move...

    How many of your non-essential purchases are bought on credit?

    Never had a credit card and neither has my wife. For longer term credit we had a mortgage once but that was overpaid and settled as soon as possible. Everything else was and is paid for straight away. I have an intense dislike for paying interest on anything and my wife is the same so we are a...

    The Indoor Riding/ Zwift/ TrainerRoad etc. Thread

    Took the liberty of re-watching the race from where it split. From what I can see it looked like a big push for the points at the top of the kom , lots of heavy sprinting going on. This seems to have caused a gap to those that weren't going for the points and it immediately went into the...

    The Indoor Riding/ Zwift/ TrainerRoad etc. Thread

    The dynamics have been off for a while , I guess they've been tinkering with them for a few months now. You can go from front to back in no time at all without even dropping your watts. I saw some of the names that missed the split and did wonder what happened , I figured someone let a wheel go...

    The Indoor Riding/ Zwift/ TrainerRoad etc. Thread

    I would imagine you have to do the 2nd recovery ride after the Finish Line ride. Could be wrong but I did a couple of recovery rides after the first 3 workouts and only one showed up as a group ride to count

    How much do you need for comfortable existence in retirement.

    I bring in £1200pm with some interest off savings/investments to add as well (maybe another 250) edit : we run 2 cars and go out pretty much every day either together or to meet friends

    How much do you need for comfortable existence in retirement.

    I'm in my 4th year of retirement and I'm 53 now so I have a certain amount of experience for this thread. I have been nodding my head at many comments and shaking my head at many others , as you do with most threads ofc For me I paid my mortgage off before I turned 39 and then just saved...

    Remembering 9/11 - 20 years on

    I was in the Fire Service at the time and we were out on a shout when the first plane hit unbeknown to us at the time. We rolled back in to the station and one of the fellas on another pump left at station came out and met us. He suggested we all come up to the rest room and have a look at the...

    Do you face towards or away from the shower head?

    I have a power shower that comes out of its holder but I have it set at its lowest point. This means I dont have it blasting in my face but I stand sideways to it anyway. I dont like water on me while I lather up so point it down towards my legs or away towards the door. Never been a person to...

    So who has spent time in the Army/Forces how do you feel afterwards

    Good points and yes , responsibility and accountability are big triggers for me. 'We take the same wage home so why is it that I have to do my job and half of yours too while you slack off' ? Not doing a simple thing like resealing the pack is a classic example of how to get me off on one. This...

    So who has spent time in the Army/Forces how do you feel afterwards

    I joined the Army in 1987 and yes , there was a lot of shouting and bawling and posturing by the training staff (physical abuse too but that was the norm back then). But when you get to your unit all that shouting and screaming stops and youre just one of the lads. Occasionally one of the higher...

    Were any of you ever in the Beaver, Cubs or Scouts?

    I was in the Army cadets and a couple of mates were in the scouts , so I went one night to a scout 'meeting' and asked if I could join. They said it was full and that was that. I'm convinced they just didnt want me in it cos I was a bit of a tearaway back then and I guess I wasnt pretty enough
