Tom 14011 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Aye In fairness it’s a lovely pub but we didn’t see any badgers. The house ale was weapons grade as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there a couple of years ago. Staying near there when we had that mental heatwave and the World Cup was on. People swimming in the lake and everything. It was in the low 30s Celsius. Seems like a long time ago now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Well we went in October so it was dark sharp anyway, however they did advertise when they’d be feeding the badgers and non appeared. Its a strange place for wildlife round Ambleside/Rydal mind, you really don’t see a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 34786 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 It’s quite busy though I guess. The lakes in general are good for red squirrels but I probably see more wildlife out the back of ours than I would in the lakes and I live about 5 mins walk from a metro station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Badger “ You had the scran at that place near Rydal?” Fred Badger “ Aye mate- usual over-priced ‘artisan’ shite… couple of tarted-up carrots and they want you to put on a show for their punters. Fuck that noise” Mick Badger “ Thank fuck, I thought I was being a bit, well, grumpy. Got any plans for winter?” Fred Badger “ Nah, gonna eat like a taxi driver all autumn then kip until April- same old same old mate.” Mick Badger “ Still a Toon fan?” Fred Badger … *points at face 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42004 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Following a “slightly” booze fuelled conversation about the best biscuits that you can’t get anymore with my sister-in-law a few days ago, a pack of Lemon Puffs arrived from amazon today. I married the wrong sister, didn’t I? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6985 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 At the start of COVID we decided to bite the bullet and take out a bank loan to have our garden landscaped. It’s a fairly big corner plot garden but on a steep slope and needs a hell of a lot of earth digging out and removing. The bill is into 5 figures but we figured we aren’t moving anywhere and it will be a nice space to spend Summer days with the bairn if holidays abroad are fucked for the foreseeable. The deposit is paid and the builders start on Monday. Then our dream house went up for sale yesterday. Got a viewing on Friday. Good chance I’m going to spend the next 3 years paying off a garden for someone else to enjoy. FML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the timeframe for them to complete work on it? It may add a little bit but probably not the amount it’s cost. The hope is it sells the house a bit quicker. The other option is someone else buys the other house before we sell ours and then we just stay and be miserable in our current, perfectly nice house. I’m aware these are absolutely first world problems btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
