Is farming village for a few days when you start a good tactic? What are your starting tactics?

Hey folks, bought the game yesterday and am having a lot of fun. Restarted a few times only a day in but now on my actually play through I am at day 3. So far I have just spent the time farming village for weapons/ammo/food/drinks so I have a decent little stockpile. Is this a good starting tactic or should I be moving to other maps sooner?

I plan to go to school next time I play.

How do you guys usually like to do things when you start?

Anyone here on thinners/warfarin and ride motorcycles?

Hey folks,

Life long warfarin user here due to APS. I have always wanted to learn to ride motorcycles. More specifically, the cruiser type not sport style bikes. Obviously more risk while riding on thinners but I am a young man and need to live my life, ill just ride more cautiously and wear more PPE.

Was just wondering if anyone here rides motorcycles while on blood thinners, espeically warfarin? How do you manage the risks?

That being said, before I think about motorbikes I need to relearn a standard bicycle, never really got around to learning as a kid. So any safety tips here would be appreciated as well

Tried some of the new M&S food ranges recently released and to be completely honest I am quite surprised with how bad/average they are.

First I was really excited about the burritos since burritos are one of my fave foods. One of my favorite things to eat is a M&S chicken fajita wrap air fried for about 10 minutes at 180 so I was super excited to see products more like this when I heard about the burritos. Never had an issue with the chicken fajita wraps (apart from a hard piece of plastic one time which they refunded me the wrap and gave me a voucher)

I tried all three and tbh the only one I would really rate and get again was the smoky halloumi one which was by far the nicest and most flavourful out of the three

The beef one had a nice flavour (sauce, rice and cheese) but it did not have a lot of beef imo. The beef was the worst part of it and the beef itself didnt have a great taste. I also found it very tough and stringy and when eating parts that had beef I found that this made the burrito have an odd texture in the mouth. It would have been better if it was a minced form of beef instead of pulled beef IMO which is more typical used in burritos. The cheesy meatball wrap was alright I suppose, but nothing really stood out and its not something I would feel the need to buy again despite loving meatball wraps/subs.

I was quite excited to try the detroit style pizza as well since I love this type of pizza. I got the cool marg one. Total crap. Base was like eating a cake and had no structure and wasn't crispy. Yes detroit style should be lighter and pillowy, but the base should still be nice and crispy. IMO the packaging was badly designed, when I took the pizza out of the packaging a lot of those lines of sauce/lemon mascarpone cheese just stuck to the plastic. Joke charging £7.50. Charging premium supermarket pizza prices for a subpar product when you could get a good premium supermarket/frozen pizza for a fiver at most.

Also tried the new custard cream doughnut. What a let down. Tasted nothing like custard cream and just tasted like a slightly stale bog standard doughnut. Going back I also found their easter selection this year pretty bad with that filled pistachio egg that was just overly sweet with no flavor. When they brought out the filled cookies and doughnuts in the bakery I also feel they were pretty disappointing and dry as well.

It makes me thing wtf are they doing in terms of product testing because I have seen similar opinions all over social media and talking to people IRL. Really seems now that all they are looking to do is make stunt food and food products that will go viral first with artsy looking packaging instead of actually focusing on the flavor and quality. Almost like they can really bring anything out and people will buy it since "its M&S so it must be decent" which doesn't seem to be the case like it was before.
