And just like that, 5 of the biggest music TV channels in the UK switch off for good leaving us with very little choice now outside of on demand services like YouTube etc…

I wanted to see what their last songs were going to be…

Kerrang closed on Thnks Fr The Mmrs - Fall Out Boy
The Box closed on Goodbye - Spice Girls
4Music closed on Raise Your Glass by P!nk
Magic TV closed on End Of The Road by Boyz II Men
Kiss TV closed on Don’t Stop The Music by Rihanna.

At least each channel got its own big send-off playlist and a short 30 second tribute to the channels’ histories before cutting to this screen. But it’s scary to think music channels are becoming a thing of the past…

Probably not dull enough for most in the group, but I recently renewed my passport (sorry, no bonus points for guessing the issuing country).
I am always excited to see what secret details are hidden within. Under a blue light, each page revealed an animal endemic to the location of the scene, and a brilliant celestial sky, along with the usual embellishments that make these things more difficult to forge.
Still not happy with the $400+ price tag, but at least they make an effort.
The quality and extent of the UV features have increased impressively since my last passport was issued.

Given the interest in the post, I’ve added photos of another page as to not be too Sydney centric.

Being a Canadian and failing to accept paper straws as part of my day to day life, I got all rebellious and purchased 2000 disposable plastic straws. The amazon driver just delivered these to my house tonight. I never thought I would live in a time that a few bags of straws would give me such joy. I added a banana for scale. My next task will be numbering each individual straw, so they can be accounted for and disposed of properly!

As a dull man, I understand that the best way to season life is with a little bit of Maggi liquid seasoning. Growing up in the Netherlands, Maggi was a staple on our table. Anything that needs a little flavor boost, a few drops will do the trick.
I now live in the United States with my wife and two daughters, and I was thankful to find that some Asian grocery stores carried Maggi, as it's not manufactured within America.
Having access to that Maggi flavour was a grace.

Fast forward a couple years... Upon visiting family in Canada I was able to visit a little Dutch import store. I saw the familiar Dutch Maggi bottle with the classic slogan "de enige echte" (the only real one). I had to have a little bottle for my pantry for nostalgia.

When i tasted it, it tasted different than the Chinese Maggi i had been using. So on my return home i had to do some scientific research. Tasting the Chinese Maggi i thought "ah yes this tastes like Maggi". Then tasting the Dutch Maggi i thought "this tastes even more like Maggi". Delving into the deep Internet web of Maggi, I learned that each country that produces the sauce does so slightly differently according to what's available as well as catering to local taste preferences. Each one upon tasting tastes like Maggi, however, when compared side by side there are nuances that make each bottle unique to its region.

Having this newfound information, I knew I must now collect any Maggi i could find. This has led to eating the best Filipino adobo seasoned with Filipino Maggi. The best Mexican street tacos seasoned with Maggi Jugo, and of course the best Dutch ewrten soep and my Oma's macaroni, seasoned with the "enige echte" the only real one.

The wasps have managed to make a hole in the clingfilm lid of a jar of jam that was in the back porch, there were quite a few wasps around so the jar was lifted outside where they could continue getting their sugar fix without risk to passers-by. The jar is now filling up with wasps, they have eaten an inch in the last four hours.
They will probably finish the jar overnight.
That is all.

Wife and I moved into a new apartment recently and our fridge came stocked with this weird container that we can't for the life of us figure out it's purpose. There's two shelves with 16 holes each and even with the drawers in the box isn't actually closed off from the rest of the fridge. My first thought was maybe eggs, but those already come in their own perfect container. Bananas halfway to bread stage for scale. Vase for turkey feather.

Okay, dull friends, what the heck is this? I just went out to mow my lawn and noticed this strange pattern. I live on a corner lot, so it's not inconceivable that someone drove across it, but no other part of the lawn in front of or behind that spot was affected. Also, given the location of the tree, the angle doesn't seem possible. My yard does have a bit of an ant problem but I have a hard time imagining they would make a shape with such smooth edges. Perhaps the beginnings of a crop circle and the aliens were unexpectedly interrupted? Okay, but seriously, what could it be? It wasn't there two weeks ago when I last mowed.
Edit to add: thank you to the 600 people who suggested that it's from the lawnmower being set too low, but no. Even at the lowest setting, my mower doesn't cut that short. Apologies for the missing banana, but this is too narrow to be a mower. It is closer to the width of a tire.
Edit 2: the comments on this post are destroying my faith in humanity by demonstrating just how many people can be so confidently wrong about something they (incorrectly) THINK they know based on snap judgments, and so stubbornly cling to even after being told they are mistaken. 🤦🏻‍♂️
Edit 3: Third photo added so all of the people with their ridiculous conspiracy theories that it's the width of a lawnmower and I did it myself can shut the hell up. I already told you it's not the width of a lawnmower, but no, based on a couple photos, you know more about it than the person who saw it in person. JFC, I just can't with you people. 🙄🤦🏻‍♂️ My lawnmower has a 21 inch deck. That's a pretty standard size for a lot of lawnmowers. You can see that the anomaly is about 15 inches wide and gets narrower as it goes. But go on, what absurd conspiracy theory do you have now?

EDITED WITH UPDATE.
I'm may not be as dull as i thought and have to go back to envying those who are!
Fracture clinic appointment this morning. New xray a lot clearer then the last.
Early 1980 before the new school year i broke the 5th metarsal. 6 months later while during track for sport at school I broke 2 bones 4th and 3rd.
2025 new xray shows i have broken the exact 3 same bones again.
Far too much giddy excitement coursing through my veins on hearing that. I have been dull and boring for a long time, I'm not too sure how to deal with this!
No cast required
The Moonboot remains as my main foot attire for the next 8 weeks
Thank you all for your comments and well wishes. I've had a giggle with some of the side comments. ....................
Last week I hurt my foot. 3 days go by before I decide that maybe I should have it checked out because it's getting more painful. Bruising minimal, swelling obvious but nothing dramatic.
So off I go to the hospital clinic and they consider sending me home, their guess just a sprain. Now I have nerve damage on my left side, it was my left foot, which is mostly numb, so for me to feel it, means something substantial has occurred. So I push a little and they give in and xray it, still very much confident it's only a sprain.
Well the Drs looking at the scans and laughing, I'm thinking did I did waste her time, so I get the courage up and say "so I wasted your time?"
She looks at me and says "no, it's very much broken".
I sighed in great relief, sadly happy that I will have to attend fractures clinics for the next 4 - 6 weeks as I'm someone who gets mortified and embarrassed when I push for something and I'm wrong ( but I'm learning to trust my gut ).
So why was she laughing? I had showed her what I had stood on before the xray, apparently this was what was making her chuckle.
I left feeling oddly proud of my achievement, I'd managed to break a bone I'd broken, the same way funny enough, way back in 1980.
Now the dilemma arises, when asked about my foot, which is currently hanging around in a boot till my first fracture clinic appointment for a cast in a fortnight, "what did you do!"
I've tried the line of getting into a fight with a kangaroo, amazingly there were a few Aussies that nodded in belief, which had me nodding in disbelief.
But I'm struggling with excitable stories of how I managed it because the truth is dull, albeit slightly athletic.
So without further delay i present you with the culprit and also share that my prowess to save two bags of groceries I was holding in my right hand and the two boxes of 10 pack of caffeine and sugar free cokes being carried by the left arm.
I maintained my dignity remaining upright at all times but a few swear words may have escaped my lips

Mott’s sells a “for Tots” apple juice that is intentionally diluted to reduce the level of sweetness, and they sell it for the same amount ($4.29) as “full-strength” Mott’s apple juice.

Much to my wife’s amusement and mockery, I did a blind tasting a few weeks ago with my wife and children to determine the nearest (and optimal from a taste perspective) concentration of “full strength” apple juice to water. The consensus was 60% apple juice to 40% water.

I performed these dilutions using a kitchen scale in grams, ensuring to calculate the tare weight of the bottle with cap removed.

Last week, I decided instead of continuously breaking out my kitchen scale when a new batch was required, I would mark a previously-consumed bottle of apple juice at the appropriate places, indicating approximately half of the “full strength” apple juice per container, and then the level of the liquid required to achieve a 40% water mixture, or 32 fluid ounces of “full strength” apple juice to 21.33 fluid ounces of water, yielding a total of 53.33 fluid ounces.

To my delight, I discovered that the first mark is located within the handle of the container, right at the top of the “bubbles” they added for added grip while carrying/pouring. Coincidentally, the second mark indicating my ideal mixture is located just below similar “bubbles”, presumably there also for grip, but potentially also for aesthetic reasons toward the top of the container.

As stated previously, the cost for both “full-strength” and “diluted” apple juice at my grocery store is $4.29, not accounting for tax. By diluting the mixture myself, accounting for the cost of water ($0.00452 per gallon or $0.0000353 per fluid ounce), my total cost decreases from $4.29 to approximately $2.15 ($4.29 divided by two, plus the cost for 21.33 fluid ounces of water, which equates to $0.00075), thus saving myself $2.14 per container.

But that doesn’t tell the whole story due to the fact that my diluted mixture does not total to 64 fluid ounces.. so, after doing some additional calculations, the adjusted cost of the store-bought diluted liquid is approximately $3.57 (or $0.067 per ounce), thus my true savings per container, assuming 53.33 fluid ounces, is $1.42.

My household consumes, on average, three of these containers per week (regardless of their dilution level, which simplifies this calculation slightly), thus my weekly cost savings is $4.26, and my annual cost savings is $221.52.

My wife was upset the other day that I didn't get the light orange juice, which she likes to water down for herself. Went to the store today, looked at the ingredients of the 100% OJ vs light OJ. Noticed the light OJ is just watered down OJ which is what she likes. So why not just get the regular OJ and water it down extra?

It takes a dull man to figure this out. It takes a wise man to know to just get the light OJ and avoid the argument (which is what I did).

M, 34, no banana for scale because I didn't want to walk all the way back to the other end of the grocery store.

Nossa História

Em 1928 dava-se início na cidade de Promissão (SP) a Casa Central, nas atividades de barbearia e perfumaria, logo transformada para loja de armarinhos sob a direção do seu fundador José Miguel Salomão..

Em 1942, veio a se transferir e se estabelecer na cidade de Botucatu como depósito de cereais, criando bases e princípios para seus filhos Naim, Roberto e Antonio.

E assim a boa semente havia germinado tornando estes comerciantes honrados no ramo varejista e atacadista em nossa cidade.
