Lived in multiple countries and had an Aldi close in them all. The quality and variety does differ. In particular the quality of the meat and fresh produce and I agree state to state can provide a disparity. I suppose that can be hard to imagine if you are used to a consistent Aldi.

There are quite a few staples that I liked they were very cheap in comparison to the bigger stores. In particular the chocolate, kettle crisps, cheese twists etc.

I also found it helpful for stocking up when budgeting. Each Jan I would go buy the giant soap powder, dishwasher tabs, hand wash, toothpaste kitchen roll, olive oil, anything that could be stored in the garage. This stopped me visiting the other stores so much and spending on junk.

Viva la revolution

I always love this story. I have always been a fan of art, in particular classical. I know people are horrified what happened but I always feel art captures a time a moment a feeling and she did was a really unique moment and result.

I appreciate that it was a work of an artist and that has been lost with the alteration. But there are so many artworks like this. I also actually like her artistic style. I get annoyed at people questioning the merit. Art is in the eye of the beholder and should not be marked as lesser because it a master did not paint it.

Yeh been increasingly problematic for the last few months. Cleared cache and reset etc but lately i am getting a lot more - no streams found.
I have tried realdebrid that got fussy when I used more than one device. Alldebrid I was getting lots of denied access errors or your debrid link is not valid.

I am currently in torbox. It had its moments but it’s ok.

Do you want peace or stuff? I equate buying to how much more I have to work. And using stuff to aquire and keep friends that’s gonna go wrong before too long.

I grew sick of stuff, i have to work for it, i have to tidy it, maintain it and then it just sits around.

I stopped buying as much as possible and switched to under consuming.

Your value is not tied to how you look, and if they are real friends they are not around you for how you look. You need a new high sweetie, fill your heart not your closet and ego.

I was thinking more as these as an inner frame. You would likely need at least a bead at the end to anchor to.

It would take some thinking for the patten though.

In terms of how they are usually used there are lots of inspiring out there and they turn out pretty. I usually collect old necklaces/bracelets through the year to use up. Just remember you always need 6 of each bead.

Looking at the ring has given me a thought, if you are confident with your snowflakes…I am not 🤣. Anyways thought was the snowflake wires used to make jewelled snowflakes. I wonder if the ends could be turned to hold a bead and then the crochet up and between.

Thanks for the inspiration DerEntenjager. I enjoy seeing others Christmas creations.

With beads they end up like this. https://www.countrybeads.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/snowflake-wire-frame-examples-of-finished-beaded-snowflakes-600x600.jpg

Did it about a month ago. Total newbie. It went pretty smooth other than it not booting straight away, I used the packager the unbuntu guide suggested. I needed to change a Setting and ended up doing it again the following day and used a different packager and then it booted without problem.

I have a Christmas snowflake pattern book. I did a few but mine always looked a little limp. It’s inspired me to take another look…and buy some starch

They are all flat I think, not 3D and as detailed as the OPs. But is a starting point.

I would love to see more of these.

Nice.

Would have been happy to pay but they just had to be a$$#oles

Found some at the second hand store. Currently hanging proud around the house.

It’s like a foil coated rainbow bonanza mixed in with homemade paper chains from all the recycled packing paper.

It looks like the opposite of a stylish insta home but makes my happy.
