Any other regional UK-centric groups in the Lemmyverse I may have missed?

I'm a Londoner, I used to have this friend (who is not a Londoner) we had a huge disagreement on topic unspecified. But after I've watched this video I think I see his viewpoint, which is true. I just don't see it at all because there's such a enormous disconnect between London and the rest of the country.

I would recommend you to watch the video as well, some arguments made in the video are slightly misleading, but the general picture is clear and true.

Will I see any Lemmy comrades at the event?

So what are we all doing?

I've been road testing hot cross buns (for science) and so far M&S are the best. I had good intentions for some serious gardening, (cutting trees, digging and planting stuff) but it looks like the weathers going to be shit, so we're going to Costco instead.

Got this through our letterbox yesterday. What sort of supernatural powers do we think they're talking?

I did always quite fancy the power of invisibility when I was younger although nowadays I'd probably pick teleportation. Not sure where "supernatural power" ends and "superhero power" begins, though 🤔

Maybe this is more like the ability to be slightly see-through and float 6 inches off the ground. Which I guess is still cool in its own way.

So I made a post a few days ago, where I felt weird about a job offer I found, but it was finally someone that wanted me to work for them, so I went to meet the person. Thanks to people here reminding me to record everything I have the whole discussion by text but also recorded everything when I meet this person (And the audio quality is good and we see their name and face in the video! Woohoo!) Since Saturday I went around the cities around and took off all the paper advertizing on the walls for this company

Not going to lie I am quite sad, I really want to work and tired of not getting answers when I am highly motivated

So, Here is for your fun, all the messages with this POS, I don't know if we have a Community for Scammer posts so I am posting here!

My last two messages wrote: "The number you have dialed is currently unassigned. Make sure you have the right number and try again." I was really lucky to wake up at the right time where he wrote to me to copy paste the text and make it look like It was a machine responding.

It's a student job. Only 3 hours a week, and i'm gone (already wow) from the uk in 3 months and hte pay is around 7.5 pound an hour. The money from the events go to the people in the community in need. But I am a little uncertain about that as they are not working with an association specifically (uncertain?)

Now there is no contract, I'm meeting the guy at Asda tomorrow where he'll give me the flyers and the pay is in cash.Which means to me if I'm not wrong that there won't be any contract? So if I don't get paid for my work, or I learn anything shady about them (I checked already, no red flargs except their major event last year didn't do so good), I can just leave right?

Also how do I know if I’ve done it right? How is it supposed to taste? Texture?

The icon is a little different to what I've seen on others and I don't know how to tell otherwise. I have a job that involves drilling through a breeze block wall about 20cm and I don't want the expense of buying an SDS if I can help it.

This drill was given to me a long time ago, hence not knowing what I have here.

Thanks!

Hello UKCasual, I'm currently looking for part-time job for 20 hours and thought that some of you might be searching for someone or know someone in need of a person. I am highly motivated and truly eagered to work and in action. It would be a pleasure to discuss this further if you are interested. I am able to Remote-Work if needed!

I'll be deleting this post in one week; it's temporary. My goal is simply to find a job.

PS: If the work attire requires me wearing a Dress Shirt, please tell me, as I'll need to buy new ones

I saw this on Mastodon posted by @infobeautiful@vis.social and figured that it was appropriate for this community and absolutely not controversial in any way shape or form.

I feel like most Saturday TV from my childhood wouldn't hold up, but in my mind at least Gladiators was the exception! Really hope they don't ruin it.

(17:50, BBC1 for the unaware)

For me, pizza and TV tonight, a pub lunch with some friends tomorrow and a film in the evening, then a day full of chores and general adulting on Sunday that we have been putting off for ages, didn't do over over Christmas and probably still won't this Sunday either.

How about you?

It's a Thursday again. The worst day of the week. Or is it? Disguised as a Wednesday for those south of the border, and a Tuesday for those of us in the land of the Scots.

What are your moans for this day and this week, the first week of the work year?

Personally, I've added app timers to all my time sink apps in an effort to become less dependent on my phone. It's 9.40am and I've already maxed out Megalodon, so I'm onto Lemmy/Voyager. Going well.

Also... I'm still off with the kids. Edinburgh schools didn't break up until the 22nd of December. Which seemed like a good idea at the time, but we're paying for it now.

Everything about this is wrong in every way.

Shame on you, Sainsbury's.

....and that tomorrow is of course Saturday, followed by three Sundays, two Mondays, a Friday then two more Saturdays and a Sunday. Then back to Monday which of course, falls on a Tuesday.

So I went to try Nando's in the UK, because I've heard a lot about PERi-PERi Chicken in the least months I went there and I have to say I was confusd on what I received for the price

Now the Burger was insanely good, but wow prices are so high here, I fought 9.25 pound was a full meal

Percy Pig's festive helpers are a bit cursed.

How does it look so old and so young at the same time?!
