I'm moving over from Ireland for a while and I'm starting to look at accommodation. I'd love to get some opinions from people who know London better.

My initial thought was to live in Central London, but I have a feeling the novelty might wear off pretty quickly. Is it actually worth paying the premium to live there, or would I be better off looking at areas a bit further out with good transport links?

My own background is motion graphics and animations, pretty social - not too big of a drinker but would prefer a pub over nightclub - enjoy going to art galleries, gym and street photography

My tomato crop are not producing as much as they usually would this year and there’s one too many flowers dying off and not producing any fruit, how is everyone else’s tomato experience this year?

i dont know if its just me but has anyone else experience extremely bad lag on premier pro to the point where its become unusable? literally anything i try to do on it simply makes the program non responsive, trying to save, change opacity, scale or anything just freezes the program, never experienced this kind of issues before

looking to pick up some new weights and came across mcsport with some good offers but not too sure about the quality and service, has anyone bought off them before?

Every year I get one or two plants with a few fungal issues but this year it’s getting a bit ridiculous, is anyone else having the same issue? Thinking it might be due to the crazy amount of rain at the start of the year

im living in ireland and doing my first smoke this weekend but we dont really have that many rubs available to buy, would love to try a good traditional Memphis rub on some pork shoulder im smoking, whats your best rub recipe? would also take a good rub recipe for beef cheeks and brisket!

hi, im very new to smoking going to do my first smoke this weekend, have a couple of beef cheeks, brisket and pork shoulder but my smoker is tiny so im thinking of smoking the beef cheeks on the saturday and leaving them rest in tallow over night and sunday morning starting the brisket and pork shoulder and finishing off the beef cheek with the slow cook in a separate coal bbq and then wrapping up the brisket in foil and placing it in the coal bbq aswell to finish on a slow cook. am i going about it the right way or is the plan too complicated?

I was doing fairly well in the gym going consistently for about 2 months lost about 5-6kg and then I started crashing in the gym so I took a week off the gym, the following Monday I got rear ended while driving and had soft tissue damage so I had to take another 2 weeks off and when I’m looking at the mirror my body looks the same as before I started working out and all my clothes that did fit me don’t anymore, I expected a small bit of weight gain cause I haven’t been eating clean but I also haven’t been taking the piss either but I didn’t expect to put back on this much weight especially on the lower belly and love handles, is it possible to regain that weight in such a short time or is it mostly just water build up?

Motion designer here — looking to refresh my portfolio with a few high-quality projects.

I’m taking on 2–3 select collaborations (free of charge) for brands or creators with solid ideas. These will be treated as proper case studies, so I’ll only take on projects that are a strong creative fit.

Scope will be kept focused (short-form content, limited revisions), but the end goal is to create something both of us are proud to showcase.

If you’re interested, send me a message with your idea and details

I’ve been working out the last 6/7 weeks on a caloric deficit, I’ve lost about 5-6 kg but the last week my energy for the gym just hasn’t been there Iv been burning out a lot faster and i can’t go as hard as I did the week before, should I take a few days to go back to maintenance and take a break or what’s the best way forward? I’m a 31M, 5’6 currently weighing at 80kg and currently consuming 1800 calories a day, on a schedule of residence and cardio in the morning and a 40 min walk in the evenings, Thanks
