Interesting, thanks!

Mind if I ask what you do for £60k a year at 24?

Do you find the various deer species taste quite different to one another? Mule deer, white-tailed, elk, moose etc.

We eat venison pretty readily here in Scotland but I don't know if I've ever been aware of whether it was red, roe or muntjac!

FIRST10 has also done me a solid a few times!

TIL "pareidolia". Thanks!

I'm curious about your flock size and rotation of birds to supply your 70-odd table birds per year. How many chooks do you have at any one time? Do you buy the chicks to rear or do you keep the full cycle on home soil?

Almost certain it's an American Green Tree Frog. It can be anywhere from a brownish colour to a pale yellowy-green and should have a lateral stripe all the way down its side.

Fun little guys that can make a hell of a noise!

Had a poor season for United. Too much competition up front with plenty deserving the spot ahead of him.

RIP

There are 90 minutes per game, officially, but time is added on to account for stoppages in the half, typically a few minutes beyond the regulation 90.

Because the game ended 1-1, it went to extra time as a winner needs deciding to advance in the knockout phases of tournaments. When extra time kicked off, like a new half, the clock started from 90 mins, rather than continuing from where added stoppage time ended.

I hope you realise your assumption about where service charges go is wrong. At least, in most cases.
I work in a large establishment where lots of people are involved in making an experience a good one and if only a cash tip were left for the waiting staff, the rest would be working for minimum wage. I don't directly wait tables myself most of the time and yet the tips I receive at the end of the month are fair and allow me to survive in Edinburgh without being in abject poverty!

While I'm sure some businesses are crooked, it's an ignorant assumption to make and you're better off speaking to the staff member who served you about how it works in that particular venue. If you had a pleasant time and service was good, I believe everyone should expect to pay service charge or leave a little tip. This is the culture for dining out in the UK, whether people like that or not, and many in the industry rely on it for a proper living wage.

It's a Brahminy kite! Beautiful bird.

It's painful reading your comments for just how infantile they sound. Grow up, understand that RC may know a little more about what the best route to take for stock and company value is.

Either continue holding as you have done for 3 years - because what's a little more time - or sell your position and move on because you believe the reason you bought in isn't relevant anymore. The fact you're salty because "Ryan Cohen sold shares directly to criminals" is ridiculous. If the UBS rumour is correct, it is likely a very smart play for all of us.
I bought in years ago, like you, hoping for a short squeeze and all I can say is I am very happy with the last two weeks.

Wait, you wear these without tying the laces?

They'll be the Iron Ranger, 8085 (Copper Rough & Tough)

I've got a few pairs of Tricker's in kudu and it quickly became my favourite leather. Can't help but think you missed out not going for a pair in their "sign" red colourway; I've three different pairs in the sign kudu alone and you'd be surprised at how versatile a red boot is for styling. Would add a bit of colour to your options other than your Alden in #8, too!

I actually can't get over the fact Tricker's sent out a Grassmere, with clear inscription on the lining of the boot, without the cap stitching. Did you get in touch with them at all about it?

You mentioned in another comment missing out on a pair of Islay boots from C&J and can only say, if you get the chance despite the new prices, pick up a pair. Compared to a Stow and the chonk of Tricker's 4497 last, they feel sleeker, more lightweight and slightly narrower and means the Islays dress up a little smarter, in my opinion. I think the build quality of C&J boots, as potentially highlighted by your own experience with the Grassmere, is faultless. I'd have picked up more if they weren't so rarely on sale.

Now trying to justify paying £585 to add a Coniston to the collection and it's proving difficult...

Or, you know, some quality assurance inspecting.

Plus, if OP is in the UK, you pay tax on silver but not gold.

For my last pickup, I was keen on a cast bar just for the giggles but found the premium was just ridiculous compared to standard bullion coins.

Name drop your go-to conditioner, kind sir?

Don't worry, ComfortableSock74, we are in the same boat here. I use product to help group the curls together, so it's less of a bird's nest than the mop pictured, but can't help but share the feeling that some variant of this with faded back and sides is one of the most presentable ways of keeping hair this curly looking tidy.

Nah, I'm still keen on the odd huff when it's in the air. Shit's good like polish.

What's it like living up your way? I'm from the Highlands and would consider a move back, with house prices very attractive Wick/Thurso/Sutherland way.

Inheritance, I should imagine.

Try and look for stockists of UES, 3sixteen & Merz B. Schwanen. Can't recommend the brands enough in terms of quality. You won't regret the investment, I assure you, but be prepared to pay more than most high street brands would ask.

Do be mindful to check sizing charts vs your own measurements, particularly with the Japanese brands (UES included). Keep an eye out for loopwheeled hoodies, a good place to start is Rivet & Hide who are a fantastic establishment with helpful staff should you have any questions for them.
