WinterMay

Hi everyone. We've had a couple of posts lately discussing specific traits of contestants' personalities and their degree of likeability, which has attracted some pretty heated conversations (why do people have so many feelings about what someone sounds like?!). I've just locked two threads as things were taking a bit of a turn.

Whilst I appreciate that the contestants and how we perceive them is a big part of the show, with everyone having their favourites (and least favourites) please remember that someone being on TV does not give you the right to write an essay about how much you dislike them (or how you perceive them to be).

This is a nice show to watch and chill and forget about ho

Good evening everyone ! u/CJ_Jones is having some unfortunate issues with his main account so I am doing the discussion thread for this week.

I don't have his Bake Off knowledge and I am on mobile so you are spared a quiz this week !

Enjoy the episode :)

Hi guys,

I know that last year the subreddit was a bit divided about this show, especially due to the differences in tone between it and our classic Bake off, and that it can feel a bit off to have both shows under the same umbrella, but if you want to discuss it on the subreddit please feel free to do so :)

As I love any British food related tv show (and also Cheryl and the French judge guy cracks me up), and I'm always excited to see the wonders that pros can work, I will definitely be watching !

Hi all,

I need to be in London on Sunday 23rd April and boyfriend and I thought to just make a day out of it.

Though a return on the train is not crazy expensive (£40 super off-peak return for the both of us on the "crappy" service, an hour to KingsX), we like the convenience of taking the car and park in the outskirts of London to take the tube in.

We would be driving from Peterborough (about 2 hours drive, hopefully light trafic on a Sunday?). Where would be the best tube station to park at, and how much would we be looking at price wise for parking charges ? We would probably be there from 11am to 5pm.

Or is it just silly costs wise?

Thank you for your help :)

Edit > I have to go

Looking forward to this new theme, enjoy the episode everyone :)

Not sure if this is done on the subreddit but further to my post a couple of weeks back I wanted to thank everyone for reassuring me about the delivery and for the tips !

The sofa was delivered yesterday, the two delivery guys were lovely and just carried it upstairs with a smile. Gave them at £10 tip and two cold cans of coke, which they were super happy about so good shout u/mitch1975 :)

Also the sofa looks great but no one cares about that :D

In 10 minutes ! Biscuits episode, we opened a box of shortbreads as a poor subsitute at home :D

Enjoy and chat away ! Excited to see if my favourites Selasi and Andrew do well this week.

We've ordered a fairly heavy sofabed to be delivered, we live on the second floor and there's no lift. Due to me being at work my bf will be by himself when it comes (not that I would be any help carrying it up the stairs); I rang Argos to make sure the delivery people would carry it into the flat and the lady on the phone said it could not be guaranteed for health and safety reasons (which I understand). She did make a note on the file to make sure the delivery guys would be aware of this.

I had the same answer from ao.com when we ordered our fridge but their delivery team carried it upstairs without a complaint.

What can I expect from the Argos delivery people?

And anyone has an idea

Alright, we're going to try out having a post episode discussion for a couple of weeks to see if you guys are interested in discussing maybe a bit more in depth yesterday's episode !

Which candidate surprised you the most ? How is Selasi so loved already ? Are you excited about the fact that a ginger guy will have to bake a gingerbread house?

Welcome to this new season of the Bake Off !

Enjoy the episode everyone :)

Council tax wants an update on our household situation. I'm still a full time student as I have a dissertation to submit in September and won't graduate until December. However I've also started a full time job this week.

Anyone got any insight ? my instinct is telling me I should be fine but eh. I'll ring them on Monday when they open to clarify it anyways.

Edit > all good, i asked my course manager and she send me a letter (on a Saturday morning) stating i was a full time student until 30 of September, it should be enough for the Council :)

Coucou tout le monde !

J'ai déménagé en Angleterre l'an dernier, j'ai décidé d'y rester (je sais ...). J'ai besoin de conserver une ligne en France pour des communications très ponctuelles depuis l'Angleterre, et pour quand je viens visiter (genre deux semaines tous les six mois).

Je voulais rester chez Orange et prendre une mobicarte, sauf que les recharges expirent super vite (et j'ai besoin d'avoir du crédit en permanence pour recevoir des sms ou des appels vu que ça coûte des sous), 50€ tous les quatre mois merci bien (en plus il faudrait que j'y pense).

Connaissez-vous un opérateur qui me permettent d'obtenir ce genre de service ? Ou si vous avez d'autres idées ? (pour l'instant je
