    My Wife and I (Our Story)

    @Thesnipergecko Macmillan is a brilliant service, but it might be worth looking at local cancer hospices as well - although they specialise in palliative care, they can often offer temporary respite services, wound treatment and medication management as well.

    Marvel Phase 4

    I'm not praising Hawkeye in any way (especially since Renner apparently went to the Legolas School For Pretending To Do Archery) but there is nothing wrong with wooden bows at all. A 40lb recurve could take down something deer/wolf/mountain lion size and a 50lb recurve could take down a brown...

    PS5, can I still use PS4?

    I'm pretty sure you can't game on both at the same time (when you start a game on one, it kicks you out on the other) If that's right, you can create a psn account for your daughter and leave your account on there - she logs into her own account, but will still be able to access your games on...

    NHS=Negligent Health Service

    Did you read your post? :D I guess you could read this as either "no boobs jobs for mental health reasons", which you've now ruled out; or "no frivolous boob jobs" which literally never happens. Focusing on either is exactly the sort of thing that the Mail/Express (other awful papers are...

    NHS=Negligent Health Service

    This may be tough to hear, but despite what rags like the Mail and Express like to scream about all the time, cosmetic surgery isn't that common on the NHS. Examples include women with uneven or no breasts, who are having long term mental health issues because of it - or women whose breasts are...

    Best mind bending movies you have watched so far?

    Perhaps it's Fight Club, he's just not allowed to talk about it :D

    Good 2 player games for ps5 please (for kids)

    Lego games are a great shout - never pay full price though, they're in every(ish) PSN sale ever - and probably even cheaper on disc The Little Big Planet series are great coop games - LBP3 (PS4) is cheap if you don't want to fork out for the Sackboy: Big Adventure It Takes Two is amazing...

    eye test prescription question

    Varifocals are amazing - felt like it took a few hours to get my brain used to switching between the lenses, but now I don't even notice - until I take them off then try and read anything :D

    eye test prescription question

    You somewhere around 40 by any chance? You can start losing the ability to autofocus on close things as you get older - it's called presbyopia. It's not the same as long-sightedness, but a long-sighted prescription will often counter it. I'm short-sighted (doesn't impact life in anyway, just...

    * The Comic Book and Graphic Novel thread *

    Comixology works great if you want to buy individual books/comics (they do have freebies, and some really good sales) Marvel unlimited is essentially Netflix for Marvel comics - afaik you can download and read offline, and the selection is pretty huge, although they withhold recent stuff for a...

    Free board games - Mansfield

    I've had a week off with no kids (bliss) and have had a massive clearout. I've got a bunch of boardgames that never hit the table, or my family doesn't like/played to death - figured I'd offer them here if anyone's interested. Pick up only, and I will not help you carry them to your car - I...

    * The Comic Book and Graphic Novel thread *

    Don't worry, I've been picking up your slack :D Some highlights: Black Hammer - both main story volumes and the 3 "world of" books. Main story is exceptional, the spin offs are good Black Science deluxe vol 1 - absolutely loved this, it's like a really weird Fantastic Four. Unfortunately the...

    Discworld recomendations

    Robert Rankin's Armageddon trilogy is a good start - plus unlike the Brentford trilogy or the Hitchhikers trilogy, it's actually 3 books :D. Pratchett was a big fan of that series by all accounts. Rankin does get a bit samey after a while, and you do need to read them roughly in order -...

    Anyone know of Rifle ranges in/around east midlands area?

    If you're still looking around East Midlands, there's the Derby Rifle and Pistol Club (Twyford) and the Chesterfield and District Rifle and Pistol Club (ranges in Notts, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire) https://www.drpc1999.club/ http://cdrpc.co.uk/#xl_xr_page_index A friend of mine used to...

    Titles to pick up for the PS5!!

    Don't forget the PS plus collection (it's in the ps plus section of the store). Should be something there to entertain you - I believe they're all PS pro enhanced, and most of the Sony games have additional ps5 enhancements.

    US: Y: The Last Man (FX on Hulu)

    I mean, it has an almost entirely female cast and covers things like sexuality and gender identity, so you should definitely just dismiss one of the most acclaimed comic series of all time as "woke" :rolleyes: Maybe get your half-the-population-is-gone kicks with Avengers Endgame. There's not...

    Disgusting display of Racism

    I'm genuinely impressed at how hard you've tried to convince yourself this makes any sense. I assume you've never actually hired someone for a job, and if you have, you should probably stop and ask someone else to do it for you - because if you think a Saturday job during uni is the most...
