Anyone else still not managed to buy a single 30th product?

Amazon - Requested invites for every item

Smyths - None in my city

Argos - Had items in my basket multiple times but always "out of stock" by the time I select pay.

Pokemon Center - Wait in a three hour online queue to be told everything is sold-out.

Very/John Lewis - Items always disappeared by the time I open the app.

ASDA - The only place I've been able to buy any cards for three months, never any 30th though.

Sports Direct - Notice on window saying they don't sell them.

Waterstones, B&M, Morrisons, Sainsburys - Tried all these multiple times to no avail.

Local toy store - Had some tins in but I didn't want to wait in a queue of 50 people to pay £13 for 12 cards.

Frustratingly I got back into this hobby last year after many years, without knowing the current levels of demand. I will probably buy some singles online but I would love to open just ONE brand new 30th product. It's just so disappointing that I've wasted many hours and trips into town without success, and I feel like the only one now 🥲

EDIT: I have one unopened first partner box (Asda bought) that I'd be up for trading a similar brand new 30th product for!

Open basketball sessions for all!

I've recently started going to the Worcester Wolves adult only basketball sessions on (most) Fridays. We are looking for more people to join. It's for all abilities and it's enjoyable playing on the main arena court.

A4103 Malvern/bransford road closure

Hi, I've seen a lot about this closure happening next week. Does anyone have an actual diagram of the stretch that will be shut? I'm trying to work out where it starts and ends. "stocks lane" seems too generic.

Best place to watch England on Wednesday?

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm not particularly looking for a wild or jammed like sardines vibe.

But do want somewhere with a bit of atmosphere. Thanks!

Best advice for the new English summer climate?

I love gardening and have done for the past five years or so.

However, I'm really struggling with these heatwaves. I don't mind watering every two or three days. But when it regularly goes over 30c my garden really struggles and I can't keep up, some things want water twice a day in that heat.

May garden is fairly large and has a south facing and north facing side, plus hanging baskets and patio pots.

  • Should I be looking at drought proof plants?
  • Are there any tips for mulching or keeping moisture in pots?
  • Should I just massively reduce the amount of plants on the sunniest side of my garden and accept defeat?

Let's talk about qualification for Asian Football Confederation teams

AFC teams were awarded three extra places this time around.

Should these middle eastern teams be getting so many qualifying spots? They have not added anything to this World Cup. Would have been so much better to see Denmark, Italy, Cameroon, Nigeria or Chile.
