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

Nettle eating contest

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!
