John Lambies Doos Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Does anyone with experience of physical labour of some sort have any advice on how to make sure my spine doesn't snap after a few weeks? I'd suggest if you are over 6ft and only weigh 10stone you aren't carrying much muscle. Strengthening your core will help. Also the chlamydia kid may be the one to talk to re physical endurance and power in the workplace 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Being driven mad here trying to think of a dance song that was heavily based on Right Here, Right Now by Fatboy Slim. Woman's voice. Talks about pain and strife and has a "no, no, no" refrain. Any ideas? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shotgun Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Saw somewhere that coffee with milk cools slower than black coffee. A little while ago I switched from coffee with milk to straight diesel and can confirm this to be true. It’s a bit annoying tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I’ve started taking a dash of cold water in my black coffee. Just as some folk describe with their whisky, the cold water seems to bring out the flavour more (and obviously you can drink it quicker). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmothecat2 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I swear by this, only way I drink my coffee these days. Yeah I'm the same. Black coffee, dash of cold water. Initially did it to take the edge of the heat off but genuinely makes it taste nicer. I think it takes the edge off the bitterness so you can taste the coffee a bit better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Blades Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Is there an easy way to know if old LP's are worth anything, or are they even likely to be worth anything? Obviously rare ones can be worth money but what about standard gear from 70s 80s etc Search e-bay for the same titles & see what they are going for? Picture discs are generally worth a bit as are more obscure releases, an old scratched copy of Super Trouper by Abba is likely to be worth the cost of a cheap frisbee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 *use your fancy degree would be a more accurate answer Mogwai are a great band but it could be about selecting the music for the situation. Prior to a hard working day Ice Cube or Biggie will see you better than Mogwai (who are good if you've got a report to write for example). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my obsessive attempts not to be a sell out, I used to wait until the limited editions were finished before I bought a record. I still finished up with a lot of rare stuff (sold later). I did avoid picture discs, which were shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously rare ones can be worth money but what about standard gear from 70s 80s etc Discogs will give you an idea of their value with traders. The general rule is that traders sell for about a factor of ten of what you could get on eBay, as folk have no idea what things are worth. So, if you see an original David Bowie LP selling for about £40, check Discogs and you'll find a few hundreds folk flogging them for £4 or so. In other words, never take your records to a record shop if you can feasibly sell them online! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
