I have, zoos usually have shelter for the animals to go in at night or as they please
May I recommend kvass?
Yes, except just like human children, they are often just treated as difficult or badly behaved by adults who do not understand that they are autistic.
*Mobius. It's not Morbin time on this occasion
PIP is not a means tested benefit and nor should it be. People who are disabled and qualify for the enhanced rate for mobility face additional costs to get around that abled bodied people do not. It is about equity for disabled people, it is not fair that someone who is disabled through no fault of their own faces a higher cost of living, and that is what PIP addresses.
The "premium" cars don't cost the taxpayer any more money than the econoboxes. They are partially paid for with the enhanced mobility rate of PIP and the shortfall has to be covered by the individual.
This is literally just saying that if you are disabled, you don't deserve nice things.
I thought he'd ran over the actual Prince George for a minute until I read the article and realised it was a place
No I didn't get any full on hallucinations, just light visual patterns. I don't know if it's actually pretty tame or if the dosage required to actually trip on it is massive.
I was like "what, has my VPN turned off?" when I saw this.
I identify as French now and I'd appreciate if the internet would respect that.
I took 100mg of diphenhydramine marketed as a sleep aid when I was really struggling to sleep for days. I still didn't sleep, but I felt as relaxed as a diazepam would make me and I had some very minor visuals so that was nice at least.

Bullets shouldn't be magnetic since they are made of brass, copper and lead, but I guess these ones had enough rusty ferrous material stuck to them that I pulled them out with a magnet anyway.
The little rod below the horseshoe is also entirely made of copper and not all magnetic, but it was held on to the magnet by some rusty scrap.
I also got a fair amount of loose change, and what I think is a door knob that I was a little worried could be a grenade when I pulled it out amongst the bullets.
I've got to clear out some of the rubbish in the shed so that I can store up more for next time. It was definitely worth keeping hold of it all and weighing it in though.
On another note, I've got some pictures of some of my more interesting finds but I'm now hitting a file size limit on feddit.uk so I've been unable to post. If anyone can recommend a good way to reduce the file size of photos on Android I would appreciate it!
I've been struggling to get out with my magnet so far this year, so instead I made this board to display some of my finds on.
I've never really done any woodworking apart from maybe a small project at secondary school, so I enjoyed putting this together and picking up some basic skills in doing so.
Well most of one anyway. I didn't think it was a real one to begin with and just threw it in my trolley, but cleaning up in some rust remover and some vigorous brushing revealed "United States Property" and a serial number engraved on one side, and the letters G.H.D on the other which confirmed that it is the body of a real gun!
Definitely wasn't expecting to find this in the canal in Gloucester. I think it's from WW2 judging by the state of it and the markings, but I'm definitely not an expert.
Here's a picture of the other side, the G.H.D engraving isn't really visible on camera though:
Pulled out this gnarly looking anchor from right in the middle of the canal junction before the CRT bridge operator came out and told me I wasn't allowed to magnet fish in the canal. After that I walked 100m down the towpath and pulled out all of this stuff:
First trip out with the massive Barbarian magnet and it's definitely better at sinking down into the mud, although I don't think I'll be doing full 20m casts with it without a lot more practice.
Tightening the locking nut was extremely difficult using a stainless steel spanner, I really should have seen that coming and found a non-magnetic one 😅
The Barbarian makes the little Hardcore look like a kids toy. I just hope I don't get it stuck to a harbour wall or steel bridge when I get to take it for a spin!
This was a very nice location to be for a few hours in the afternoon. The moored narrow boats and passing ones made me slightly envious of the lifestyle of living on one. It seems like a very cosy way of life, and the freedom of being able to drive your house around to different places on the water is very appealing. Also I wouldn't have to travel far for magnet fishing!
I think next time I'll bring a change of clothes so I can pop into the pub for a pint afterwards.
I think I wil be more careful when walking past scaffolders working in the future given how dropsy they apparently are. I think there's loads more scaffolding down where I pulled those up but it was the last spot of the day so I only had time for a few casts.
I let a couple of passing kids have a go and they managed to find someone else's small fishing magnet, so they were pretty pleased to get one for themselves, and I saw them again later that day having a go in Castle park. I also pulled up another larger single sided magnet that someone hadn't loctited their eyelet on properly.
I didn't find much this time around but that's frequently the case when trying new spots. I definitely want a bigger magnet, there was a lot of deep mud and a larger one would really help finding stuff buried in there.
I was very tempted to create traffic chaos using this sign I pulled out, but I decided that Bristol has enough of that already
I pulled this out in two halves about 45 minutes apart from each other. The second half had numbers on it that I thought could be a date, but on further inspection of the first half it looks like the numbers continue on it, so unfortunately I don't think this was cast in 1828.
I got far more than I was expecting at this spot, given that it's on the edge of a village rather than city centre, including a still working fire extinguisher:
A car stereo amongst some other bits:
And the most nails I've ever found in a single trip by far, with the stuff I didn't find particularly interesting:
Most of what I found was keys and coins, mostly coppers but I might have a quid total if I'm lucky! Not sure who accepts dirty, heavily tarnished coins though.
Two bikes this time, but I'm pretty sure there's two more down there in the mud. It's really thick mud in that section so I think all the heavy scrap is sunk in there deep down.
I developed a bit of an audience while trying to pull out the second bike and got a round of applause when I eventually pulled it out! It was good to brighten some people's day but I think I'll go somewhere quieter next time. As always I was very pleasantly surprised with the overwhelming majority having positive reactions to what I was doing, and one woman even came and had a go.
Most interesting finds were these two Israeli coins and one Indian coin:
In my experience if you go to the doctor they also ignore it
