I have always done my own DIY even built my own kitchen not so long back. I fit and repair my white goods but now can't seem to do anything and finding it very hard to get a good regular tradesperson.Unless it’s massive job eg kitchen or bathroom I will never pay someone if there’s a chance I can learn and do it myself
The price of milk alternatives has also gone through the roof. Pisses me off, my bf is actually intolerant to dairy so always has soya and it’s so expensive to buy now!Has anyone ever seen those vegan YouTubers who take to the streets to have a chat with meat eaters (or carnists as they dub them)?
If not, the idea is to start talking in a friendly manner, then work their way up to 'gotchas'. As an example, they'll ask: "would you drink human breast milk?" Obviously the answer is a no, usually with a bit of disgust, which then leads into the next question of: "well, why drink milk from a cow that's for calves, not humans?" Cue shocked looks. Then they'll generally say "did you know cow's milk is made up of pus?" And so on.
The result generally being that the interviewee agrees to reduce or cut out their dairy consumption. I know all the above, having watched several of the videos, but the benefits of milk outweigh the negatives in my opinion. And I hate all the alternatives like soya milk, oat milk, etc.
This probably isn't a UO yet, but sales of milk alternatives have increased rapidly throughout the last couple of years (apparently 1 in 3 now drink them rather than dairy milk), so if the trend continues, us cow milk drinkers will be the unpopular ones.
As long as you wash it in the bidet, it's okay, definitely not okay to wash it in the kitchen sink.I wasn’t here for the chicken washing discussion, what was the verdict?
That’s nice to hear. Milk is fairly easy to change in the diet because it doesn’t seem like this huge commitment as you’ll likely continue to use other products with normal milk inThis probably isn't a UO yet, but sales of milk alternatives have increased rapidly throughout the last couple of years (apparently 1 in 3 now drink them rather than dairy milk), so if the trend continues, us cow milk drinkers will be the unpopular ones.
Yeah I can imagine. Plus they only seem to sell milk alternatives in relatively small cartons. I buy a decent amount in my weekly shop, as I have cereal every morning, a latte, coffee and tea throughout the day etc. It must add up if you consume a similar quantity of that sort of milk.The price of milk alternatives has also gone through the roof.

I've tried them all, I just don't like them unfortunately. If they could make a milk alternative that tasted like milk and cost a similar amount, I'd switch.That’s nice to hear.

Agree. They’re all minging. Any time I’ve done veganury I’ve just sacked off tea/coffee anything that requires milk!I've tried them all, I just don't like them unfortunately. If they could make a milk alternative that tasted like milk and cost a similar amount, I'd switch.
i’m the same. yes, theoretically i COULD fit my own kitchen or whatever, but it would be a terrible job and the cupboard doors would all be loose and the whole thing would probably be a fire hazard. i’d rather just pay and make sure it’s done properly/right than even attempting it myself. all credit to people who are able to though, i wish i could!I can decorate, assemble furniture and stuff like that but I can't do any larger DIY jobs. I'm left handed and not particularly dextrous, if I was a child today I'd probably be assessed as dyspraxic. I don't have the strength to drill holes in the walls (our walls in this house are either totally solid, or plasterboard. there's no middle ground).
So I am reliant on tradespeople for a lot of jobs, except for the fact I can't find anyone decent or reliable, so most jobs don't get done. I've never had a working sink in my ensuite because the original plumber didn't connect the waste pipe from the sink to the main waste, and others since then haven't been able to work out how to do it, or have never given a quote/ turned up to do the work!
I don't think there should be any shame in saying you can't do certain/any DIY tasks yourself. My Ex's view was that was a cop out and anyone who said they 'can't' do something hasn't really tried, or tried hard/ often enough.
I should have reminded him of that pearl of wisdom when he couldn't manage to be faithful to me.

Surely it’s counter productive anyway? If someone insults me, I’m not likely to listen to their dietary advice.Militant veganism can get in the bin. Eat what you want - meat/plants/bidet chicken - whatever. Just don’t preach to anyone else about it!
And me. Especially from jerseys.Cow milk is for cow babies.
And me - and billions of other humans the world over. Aint nothing wrong with cows milk!Cow milk is for cow babies.
I find it really bizarre when adults and older children drink other mammals milk. I’m no vegan btw. I just find it really odd. There is no need for milk beyond infancy. Not sure if this is a northern irish thing but loads of people here drink a pint of milk with their dinner and it repulses meCow milk is for cow babies.
Milk is an excellent source of protein and calcium, for anyone. Kids need it more but adults benefit from it too.I find it really bizarre when adults and older children drink other mammals milk.
