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

Percy Pig's festive helpers are a bit cursed.

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

Super smooth and full control on cornering...

Curious as to what others do once they've opened their advent calendar for the day, take the door off, leave it open, close it, or something else entirely?

Personally, I've always removed them, along with the foil inside the door, looks neater and it's easier to find subsequent days. Others don't seem to agree with me on this one though, so I'll be interested to see what you fine folk think.

Went down with a mysterious cough on Tuesday night. Seemed like just a bad cold Wednesday, got worse and added dizziness to the mix Thursday, now today the dizziness is gone (hooray) but whatever I've got has changed tack and is trying out severe nausea on me instead (booo).

Was supposed to be out tomorrow with a friend I've not seen since August. Not impressed.

So while I spend the next few days swooning around the house complaining about it like an actual child, I'd love to hear some happy things to focus on instead!

Weekend plans, amusing anecdotes, promises to avenge me should I not make it through, jokes at my expense, all equally welcome. For the love of god just distract me ๐Ÿ˜ญ

First pub, two drinks, ยฃ10.70. Ouch, we thought. But that must just be what it costs round there nowadays.

Second pub, literally round the corner. Same two drinks came to ยฃ6 something.

I'm trying to be normal today and do my actual job instead of falling into a hyperfixated rabbithole of how pubs work and how they can possibly be so different despite being in essentially the same location and about the same size. But I can't get it out of my mind!

Both of them had dogs in, so it can't be that. The more expensive one was much more brightly lit, so maybe pub-grade lightbulbs are very expensive? ๐Ÿค”

Any subject-matter experts hanging about who can put me out of my misery?

As a non USA resident, I didn't know who this was. Before I read the post that was the name I had in my head.

You may or may not have heard of the gross Android 14 bug currently affecting people with multiple user accounts on their phone. I'm in this picture, hi, this is me.

When I heard about the bug, I stopped using the second profile and everything seemed to be fine. A narrow escape, right?!

Alas, no.

This morning I saw something vaguely amusing, and thought "my friends at UKCasual will chortle quietly at this". Tried to take a photo...camera crashed. And again. And that's apparently it! I now have no access to storage on my phone and am left hoping Google come up with a fix asap.

Not even going to tell you what the amusing photo was, so ner.

How's your day going? ๐Ÿ˜ฉ
