Iminavest Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Is an air fryer worth investing the guts of 50 quid into or more likely to end up as a kitchen ornament? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth it, if you want to make chips but much healthier than the disgusting chip pan of old. Uses barely any oil and they taste great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, and it avoids the risk of Billy Connolly's 'Partick Roulette' (making chips when you're pished). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Does anyone else find themselves eating absolute shite when they're working a Nightshift? I've tried to just flip my meal times by 12 hours but I still end up digging into multiple bags of crisps and Haribo which I wouldn't normally do through the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason when your body clock gets fucked up you crave the bad stuff. Bit like hangover eating. I tried everything, like eating big healthy dinners before going to work. All that happens is a colleague says "f**k it, I'm going for a kebab/big mac, what ye wantin?"and that's it. Or, you abstain and hoover up the fridge when you get home.

I think both of these possibly explain it, I've tried to avoid buying as much shite in but it's easier to stock up on microwave food, crisps and stuff than it is to make healthier stuff every day. Have you tried sleeping? In my nightshift days there was 3 of us, we took it in turns.I work alone and whilst I probably would get away with sleeping for a bit, if someone decides to break in whilst I'm sitting sleeping I'd be jobless and quite possibly dead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I used to be able to eat well on nights if I guzzle copious amounts of water. The downside was during the day whilst trying to sleep I needed 25 pishes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water's definitely the key to getting through a first night shift or a double/treble shift, coffee doesn't do it after a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
