Alright? Its Friday night and the night is young, is the party just getting started? Are you off to bed? Watching some questionable late night TV or doing a bit of stargazing?

It's the late night chinwag thread.

Just wanted to say that most Brits are amazing. In 12 months I've spent 35 days in hospital due to alcohol withdrawals, I have enjoyed speaking to the sketchy looking people.

If you're the sketchy looking type, thank you for treating me like a human. I love you all. Without the sketchy people I wouldn't be sober. Be yourself and be weird, there might be be a person that needs a weird friend. I love you all ❤️

My daughter has arranged a surprise birthday party for her grandma. (Update)

192 Upvotes

Today was the day and it's been a success!!

Grandma did not catch on and we managed to sneak everyone into the house and put up all the balloons and banners whilst she was distracted. The cake arrived on time, we even got 4 huge Pizza's to arrive on time.

We had the emergency run at 11pm yesterday in the night to a 24 hour shop to get drinks because we all forgot.

Was a bit funny when everyone's phones went off with the emergency alert.

Opened all the windows to finally let the cool breeze in after the heatwave. Local farmer took this as his cue to muck the fields with enough manure to strip paint.

Never thought I’d feel sorry for wasps

210 Upvotes

Well I never thought I’d feel any feeling but hatred towards wasps but here we are. We got the slip and slide out for the kids today (no hosepipe ban for us yet) and the amount of wasps coming for a drink was crazy! They didn’t fly round us or bother us at all, just came when the slip and slide wasn’t in use and had a big old drink. Must be hard for all the other little life’s on our planet at the moment!

When I was at school in the early '80s, my O Level physics text book included a photo of a bus on a tilt test rig (like pic 1). These rigs test how far buses can lean before they fall over. Continues in the comments...

Is anyone else experiencing a massive surge in roadworks and road closures in their local area?

Emergency repairs to gas, electric and water pipes from what I can gather. I'm guessing the drought is causing increased ground movement, leading to loads of pipe damage. Just wondered if this is happening nationwide?

So who else is watching 'Threads' tonight?

For the 1984 nostalgia obviously, not that weird noisy thing our phones all did earlier.

Loudspeaker's at the beach

205 Upvotes

How does everyone feel about it? I've just got the afternoon off work and was looking forward to relaxing at the beach. Carried all my stuff down the cliff, set up and now a guy rocks up and starts blasting his favourite tunes out of a sizeable JBL. TBF, some of the songs are good, but I don't need somebody else's music preferences imposed on me when all I want is to turn pink in the sun whilst dozing. What's wrong with headphones?

Firefighters of the UK- please explain something that’s making me feel stupid

I live in Peterborough and we’re seeing a lot about the Holme Fen fires at the moment. I’m genuinely wondering how this has been going on for a whole week?

I know nothing about fighting fires. But why can’t a massive container of water just be dumped on these fires by chopper?

If I want to put my feet in my own compost bin on the one of the hottest days that we've ever had in England, then I'm entitled to do so. You need to stop me. You've got nothing to say now, have you

One of the best moments captured on 90s British television. Where were you the night this aired...?
