Speaking as a Brit, I just want to say, Garden centres are horrendous places, a blot on the land scape and filled with the kind of people you would never want to meet, they should be banned.
If you do ever get into gardening/growing your own food, then honestly, the garden centre will become your favourite place. Nobody is ever in a bad mood in a garden centre. They are places of extreme zen and quite frankly ought to be recommended by doctors.
i worked in a garden centre for many years starting from when i was 17 years old- i wish that was true i lived down south in NZ in Dunedin where we get 4 seasons, once it was actually snowing, the entire town was about to close up and go home and two young English ladies were buying an oak tree- we had three to choose from,they took so long im lucky i didnt freeze to death they took so long
I used to drive trucks. I can parallel park an artic with a 45' trailer and it will be an inch from the kerb on all axles. In a car? Nope. Not happening. Can't do it.
lol. That’s genuinely interesting. I don’t like parallel parking. The other day I was at my kitchen window and saw a young female driver, she looked about 12 to me (I’m old) pull up by what looked like a too tight space on the other side of the road. I got out the popcorn and thought ‘here we go, good luck getting in there’. But, bang without hesitation she went straight in, no adjustment. Some people can just do it. The trick seems to be don’t overthink it.
Was just coming here to write "they are for me" sprung doors are a pain in the posterior and wheelchair users can struggle with non push button exits / entrances. Especially external doors and fire doors
It’s not just for people in a wheelchair, anyone without the physical strength to open and hold a door, like the elderly or someone with a disability or even parents with a pushchair etc
@@DiGiDaWgZsyes that makes sense but sometimes I’ve noticed the buttons only unlock the door and they don’t actually open them, for example in schools. I’m guessing this is a security system where there is a swipe card entry on the other side for example.
Hi Kalyn. Let me explain radiators. Metal panels filled only with water. The temperature can get part way toward boiling point but rarely ever does. So it's less hot than your kettle. It therefore cannot ever get hot enough to start a fire. You're all good to leave your socks to warm whilst you are out. Great honest vid. Youre doing well. I always watch your videos.
In my experience from working in schools and universities, those green exit buttons are mainly found on doors which are electronically locked to prevent unauthorised access from the outside. People wishing to enter the building have to scan their ID card/device or enter a pin code.
It depends. If pressing the button just unlocks the door then it's definitely there for security. However if the button actually opens the door then that's for accessibility for people who may not be able to physically open the door themselves
Electronic doors are also in some places to aid wheelchair users etc to gain entry into shops etc , hence as someone pointed out they are quite low down, if you are a tall person. :)
I’ve been driving for 53 years and consider myself a decent driver, and I’ve turned left with the traffic and found somewhere to turn round more than once. Don’t sweat the small stuff. 😊
In busy traffic it can be quicker to do that, as well as less stressful, and much kinder to those waiting behind. I often plan my routes for convenience rather than shortest distance.
Just got to watch that your place doesn’t get damp if you’re drying things straight from the washing machine on them. Dehumidifiers can help that though
@@DeeDeeLowryLegs Funny, I've had zero damp problems with drying clothes on radiators in over40 years of doing it and not a dehumidifier in sight, but hey you keep telling yourself its a problem.
With garden centres, you won’t remember the time that they were the only place open to go to on a Sunday. Everywhere else was shut due to Sunday trading laws.
You are not offending anyone by not liking garden centres...we like what we like.. enjoying your take on our shores..I always enjoy listening to someone from another place commenting on our peculiar ways!! Keep your eyes on the skies and looking right in the traffic...
Heh, I'm a 32 year old British man, and I don't like them. I think I'm still scarred from going to them with my parents and being completely bored s***less looking at flowers all day. I don't like flowers. They attract bugs and buzzing things that irk me. I'm a concrete jungle kinda guy
Radiators get to about 60°C the ignition temperature for, without looking it up, cotton and polyesters is like over 200°C. You aren't gonna start a fire on a plumbed-in radiator. Electric radiators or propane radiators you could definitely start a fire with.
Different reason though. With an electric radiator, the risk is not from whatever you drape over the radiator getting too hot, it's from covering up the vents that the mechanisms inside need to keep air flowing.
The button beside a door to exit lead to the shut down of one local authority's entire computer centre. Somebody had put the emergency shutdown button near the exit door, unlabelled I think, and you can guess which button a visiting engineer used! All systems that ran through it, e.g. schools internet access, library services and so on, went off-line until the centre could be rebooted and that took some time.
Clothes sizes are just numbers. If you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius it's just the numbers that change not the temperature. In cloth shops you often see tables for the conversions of sizes. And some clothes also have lables attached with all the sizes for the different countries. In the end it needs to fit, that's all.
So true! If the clothing fits your body and looks flattering, that's all that matters! Also, I've found sizes to be pretty arbitrary, especially when it comes to small, medium, large, etc. Depending on the style, cut, and manufacturer, I can wear anything from a size small to XL, which I find crazy! 😃I never buy an item of clothing without trying it on first in multiple sizes, to get the best fit.
The thing about radiators is not to confuse them with storage heaters. Covering a storage heater with clothes is bad because that can block in hot air that is supposed to be free flowing, than that might just cause an increase in temperature to burn some fabrics.
A UK household radiator isn't going to set anything on fire. Hanging clothes directly on it can dry them faster, at the cost of a sharp increase in wet-clothes smell in the room and possible marks/discolouration on the garment. I often put my towel and underclothes on the radiatior on a winter's night to take the edge off of early mornings the next day.
Tar-tar sauce. 1 cup of mayo, 2 pickled gherkins or 4 cornichons chopped, 1 tbsp of capers chopped, loads of fresh dill and tarragon chopped. Add all to a bowl and loosen mixture with pickle juice or lemon. Taste and season. This is awesome with beef not just fish. It's incredible on a burger.. What's to be scared of???? 🙂
@@garthdev Try a little (English) mustard in the mix (or grated horseradish)… not too much as all you want is the pungency to lift the flavour a little, and counteract any excess acidity from the pickle liquor or lemon juice without removing their residual sweetness. I've also added a tiny pinch of chilli flakes on occasions, depending on what I'm using it on.
How very dare you!! Garden centres are awesome and I love them. It's not an age thing either, cos my grown-up daughters love them too. We especially love the restaurant. In fact my youngest, just said, "Can we go to Notcutts tomorrow?" when I suggested doing something together on my day off. 🤣🤣
The dried fruits were put in the jars to preserve the meat and as the meat was used more was added to fill the jar, eventually only fruit left so that was used. Would have been around Christmas or New year by then. A diet of salted dried meats until the pigs were large enough to slaughter, only breeding stock could be kept over winter, pigs breed all year round.
GGL I am 51, a widow, a mother & a Grandma & I don't remember the last time I visited a garden centre ... I have a yard - no grass, just a raised flower bed at the bottom of the yard, plus I don't plant flowers or plants, I just don't have any interest in them, neither did my hubby & my daughter has also not developed green fingers, so I totally get you with the lack of interest in garden centres. The 24Hour clock - I was taught to subtract 2 from the last number, so 14:00 would be 2pm, 21:00 you would class the as 11:00 & subtract 2 giving you 9pm ... I prefer the 24Hour clock format because it removes any ambiguity with times.
Originally, mince pies had minced meat in them, but after the Crusades men were coming home from Jerusalem and Syria they started adding fruit which is a north African/middle eastern influence, over time the fruit content grew and the meat content decreased until today it is all meat. On another note, Henry the 8th was a great lover of pies and demanded that there be some at hand at all times, though he got upset when he did not know which was a fruit pie and which meat, so they put pastry leaves on the fruit pies so he could tell them apart. I hope that helps.
In theory a radiator could set something on fire if it has a low combustion point but it's extremely unlikely. What is more serious is that you are wasting a huge amount of heat from the radiator. It's much better to fit a rack onto the radiator and hang clothes on that or, better still, use a clothes-horse and sit it near a radiator, the clothes will dry much faster that way.
Radiators, because they use water, can only ever reach a max of 100C (boiling point water), but no central heating can manage to truely reach that high, realistically the max temp is around 60C. This is usually harmless for most cottons, hoever, rubberised t-shirts and some synthetics may melt.
Hi Kaylin. Good to see you again. The buttons to let you put of buildings are mainly for security. As for parallel parking there is a knack to it and once you understand the knack it's easy. How to parallel park -: pull up alongside the car in front of the space you want to park behind, stop about a ft and a half from the car next to you. Put the car in reverse then turn the steering wheel to the left while reversing back into the bay sharply . When your passenger door mirror is level with the rear light of the car you want to park behind slowly turn the steering wheel to the right of the car while still moving backwards this will give you enough room for the bonnet to miss the corner of the car in front and straighten the steering wheel up this will park you neatly next to the kerb about a ft away from the kerb.
Ashley Neal absolutely despises those "tricks" because it varies from vehicle to vehicle. Best bet is to practice with your own vehicle in a quiet place
@@Hirotoro4692 What britbazza suggests, works for most vehicles. 95% of cars are pretty much the same shape. But practicing with your own car in a quiet place is good advice.
I know I would struggle to correctly mark the England/ Scotland border on a blank map. With major cities on it I could make a good stab at it, but on an blank map I'd struggle to be within 50 miles! (Brit in her 60's here)
I wish more people would talk about these sorts of things rather give the impression they are above everyone. I am sure we all have a list of this sorts of embarrassing things. I don’t like tea for example and lived in deepest west Wales for almost a decade without learning almost any Welsh!
Don't worry you're not alone! As a little kid i liked garden centres, a fun place to run around with pretty flowers, even a fountain. Then in 1987 i turned 7, since then, i see no point to garden centres. I've got a huge back garden, it's covered in grass, it doesn't need anything else. I have zero interest in gardening lol.
I'm in my mid-40s, England born and bred, and I don't get the attraction of garden centres. Sure, on the rare occasion that I want to buy something for the garden, I'll go to a garden centre. And that's it. I'm not going to go there for a trip out, just to have a look round and have a cup of tea. It strikes me as what people do when they want to go to a National Trust property and look at the gardens but they're too tight to pay an entry fee...
Your fears about driving in the UK are perfectly normal. While I obviously don't have any of them (I'm a Brit) you wouldn't catch me driving in the US for love nor money! I mean really - 4 way stop signs? 4 lane dual carriageways through city centres? Turning right on a red light? Driving in any lane you want at any speed (below the limit ofc)? Driving tests that basically just make sure you can start, stop and brake? What's all that about! Not to mention the complete lack of MOTs so people can drive whatever junk heap they want. No thanks - when in the US I will stick to taxis/ubers/aeroplanes thanks :)
I'm from continental Europe. Driving in Britain never was a problem. Just follow the cars ahead (more or less). Make sure the mirror on your right shows most of the area to your right AND everything on the right lane behind you. If necessary, mount a second mirror for the blind area. BUT! The really risky thing is beeing a pedestrian. No matter how often I remind myself before crossing a street, I always look first to the left and before I notice my mistake, the bus from the right is right in front of me. Fun fact from my first visit to Britain in my own car 1980: My car had a Diesel engine and when the time came to fill up, I noticed, that there where no stations, that offered "Diesel". No "Oil" or "Gazoil" as well. Finally I saw a large semitruck pull out of a station and I tried it there. And there were several kinds of Gas or Petrol pumps and a mysterious pump with "DERV". That was the secret code word for Diesel (D-iesel E-ngined R-oad V-ehicle).
You are not alone!!! As a Brit I also occadionally turn left and then go round a roundabout or turn right into a side street , turn around and turn left into the main road. Turning right can be scary!!!
I love garden centres. They are my go to place for a relaxing midweek trip out. Coffee cake and plants! Whats not to love. They have reward cards too, quite often. I prefer radiators, hot air just ends up causing a draught and drying your skin. You don't like gardening! 😮😢
I believe the buttons are to bar people from just entering a room or building Like schools or hospital wards. To enter you must be granted enrerance or have a code.
Yes - or sometimes to allow disabled people to have the door open automatically but without relying on sensors that would keep opening the door every time someone went near it.
She gave it away at the end - the receptionist yelled to press the button. Receptionist let her in. Pretty sure they have them in the States as well but she didn't visit access controlled buildings when she was there.
In Old English, meat meant general nourishing material. Also, I cannot hear the word mincemeat without thinking of Sweeney Todd! In the US, exit buttons are more common in secure buildings.
#9 GARDEN CENTRES You are allowed to not like them 😀 but it is not an age thing. But it will depend on the quality of garden centre. They might include aquariums, pet stores, food halls, Xmas Grottoes, antique shops, (non-gardening) clothe stores, kiddy play pen, fun fare, giant maze, and one of our local one has a small zoo.
The buttons exist to release the magnetic lock that keeps the door shut so it can't be opened from outside by someone who doesn't have a keyfob to get in.
Don't feel embarrassed about the turning right thingy. My partner who is a really good driver and has been driving for more than 40 years, also will often do that. It's called being a safe driver. Well done you.
As a professional home delivery driver for years, I often did the 'roundabout' trick (or go 'round the block') to save time waiting to cross a busy main road to get from one residential side street to another in a large van. Even on a motorcycle, I'll sometimes turn left with the flow, crossing it, then U turning when there's a gap in the oncoming traffic, to turn left into the street I was opposite (I was a London despatch rider for several years too… Bike or van, it's all about keeping moving).
I (a Finn) got my first driver license in Florida in mid 80's, and part of the driving test was parallel parking. Frankly it wasn't as harsh as it may sound, the driving test took place in a fenced (~100*100m) area with a 8 shaped test track behind DMV Lantana office and it was one person at a time taking the test.
@@hypsyzygy506 No, but that was how it was done in Florida 1984. Total price of the license including a restricted licence, a written exam (took maybe 5min), vision test, driving test and pictures was $13 if I recall correctly. I think I drove 1-2 months with the restricted licence (required to be accompanied by a licence holder adult family member) before taking said "driving test" and getting a full licence.
Radiators usually have a dial on one side numbered 1-5 which helps regulate the heat. ❤ Also you're allowed to not like things in the UK. I dont even like garden centres 😂
Usually when you have a green button to exit it's so you don't need to use the access card or ring a bell to be let out. Sometimes for a gate they are further from the door to stop someone pressing it from outside with a stick
I've dried stuff on the radiator - Including books and other paper and cardboard things that either got tea spilt on them or wound up in a not-quite-waterproof bag while it was pissing it down - enough times that I really wouldn't be worried about things catching on fire from being on them.
There are very few substances that would suffer from autoignition at the temperatures a radiator will typically reach. All of which are heavily regulated. Your washing & pretty much anything else won't lead to a house fire if left on a radiator "too" long 😂 It will eventually lead to your radiators rusting & the paint covering flaking off though. I suggest to use a drying rack if you absolutely need to dry your clothes indoors.
I got locked in a toilet in our local hospital - there had been a huge refurbishment and I was unaware that the lock system had changed to a button you have to press to release the door catch - I had to call the receptionist to let me out 🙄😆
The buttons are there for security mostly. The blocks of council flats that I live in have it. If people want to get in they can buzz the flat number and I can talk to them over a intercom and I can let them in with my intercom. Then they can push the button on the main door to let themselves out when they go. It stops people gaining access tp the building that shouldn't be there....like the homeless sleeping in the corridors. When I go out I have an electronic key fob to open the main entrance doot to get back in. Simple really!
I am 62 and an English national and Garden Centres bore the pants off me ! Door buttons started for wheel chair users now they are just every wher and most are camoflaged silver and i too often look a dummy stood looking for the green or red button.
Military time and 24 hour are slightly different...Military starts with a leading 0 and doesn't use a colon where as 24 hour doesn't use a leading 0 and does use a colon (0800 v 08:00 or 2000 v 20:00)
We have the one way door thing at work. They have a green button to let you out but someone though it would be an amazing idea to put the firm alarm break point in the same location 😮
Garden Centres - some are just for plants, some for plants and garden stuff - tools, bird feeders, furniture - and some are for a day out with a cafe, Christmas decorations, interior decor, gifts - basically a hypermarket without food but with garden stuff instead. They're great if you're into gardens and want ideas.
I do turn right. I was in the car with my 70 year old dad driving the other day. He was trying to turn right, I could literally see a roundabout, just down to the left. I did just have to ask him to use it.
Hi. About radiators. They never get hotter than the water pumped through them from the central heating boiler. I took the standard radiator out of my bathroom. When sitting down on the loo my legs were getting to hot touching the radiator! I had the radiator changed for a towel rail using the same pipe connectors. The towel rail is not as long but is so much taller, keeps my towels warm and cosy and keeps the bathroom warm, it doesn’t burn my legs!
The electronic button to open a door to get out is usually on a door to a secured area with restricted or controlled access, such as a school, laboratory, medical facility etc. Access in to the area is controlled by a receptionist, electronic pass etc, but anyone is free to leave the area, hence the button. Buttons to open doors for wheelchair access are on both sides of the door.
The radiator in my bathroom has bars, so that you can use it like a towel rack. Can confirm that there is no danger of cloth catching fire if left on a radiator.
When we visit my mum and we go out for a meal, we always call in at the garden centre on the way back to her house. BUT we only look at birthday cards and jigsaw puzzles!!!
Hi I loved your video 😊, those doors confuse me too, and lots of other people, it’s quite a newish thing I think. As for parallel parking it is so hard, I can do it one way on the right but not to the left, only because we lived on a street that had no driveways! Mostly we have that breather intersection her on the Wirral which makes it so much easier to turn right, I hate it too and have been known to go to the next roundabout too. You’re doing really great. Radiators are harmless by the way.
A lot of commercial premises have access control systems. These determine who has access to where. The doors usually, but not exclusively, have electro magnetic or solenoid controlled locks. If you are issued with a card or fob, again not exclusively, you can enter the area the door leads to or a member of staff can open the door to for you. To exit the area you have to release the lock to open the door by pressing a release button.
Buildings in 60s had hot air heating systems. Expensive and inefficient and would normally be replaced with wet radiator systems or white meter hearing (electric radiator system)
Button to get out. I remember a case from America where some big politician person set off a fire alarm, then later claimed he was pressing the button to get out a door.
@@stephenlee5929 20-2=18 disregard the 1=8 o'clock 21-2=19 disregard the 1=9 o'clock 22-2=20 change the 2 to a 1=10 o'clock 23-2=21 change the 2 to 1=11 o'clock 24-2=22 change the 2 to a 1=12 it's pretty basic maths really even I've managed to do it since I was a 8yr old
Cool video. What I've never understood about open door buttons is why some fckr has put the fire alarm button next to them. Also of note is that I feel no one in the UK will say meet me at 21 hours, they'll say 9pm. But visually only the 24 hour 'military' time rules like in train stations.
There’s actually a lot of parallel parking in Miami Beach. Waiting lanes, protected green and all way stop are some of the best things about driving in US.
I'm fine with 'ignorant but curious/willing to learn' - but wilful ignorance boils my piss. Genuine curiosity should always be rewarded with kindness, patience & understanding.
The buttons to exit buildings exist when the entry/exit door has some kind of electronic lock. You have to use a pass or use an intercom for entry but to leave you just press the button because the lock is designed to prevent unauthorised entry not prevent people from leaving.
Driving-I recall some years ago I was a postie in rural Devon. Sure the lanes are narrow but that's rarely a problem because we can drive, the same cannot be said for your countrymen. I had to reverse my Royal Mail van almost a quarter of a mile because the Septic coming towards me in his Mercedes hire car was incapable of reversing the, literally, 5 metres into the passing area.
Imagine if we all turned left instead of turning right to avoid the pier pressure. The extra mile we all do would gridlock the roads and cause unknown pollution. It`s a different world when you have so much space and energy costs are so low.
Up north where I live a lot of junctions now have a marked right turn lane. Agree parallel parking is a pain. Reversing in is not too bad with sensors fitted but yep I will drive through in a car park, usually farther from the shops but why not, exercise is good for one. As for women's sizes, Marylin Monroe was a 16 by UK standards. Also lots of clothes now how all the weird national sizing systems listed.
The door button you shown is a security release button. Normally connected to a lock or some sort of access control letting you out but restricting who comes in. Hence why they are found in schools and things. They is another type which is normally bigger flat and has a wheelchair symbol on it. These are normally for when the button opens the door as well or instead of releasing a lock
Garden centres sell much more than plants, often locally sourced food; books, not just plant related, (good place to mooch if you are not into plants but the person you are with is in a trance looking for a particular tree!); cafes and restaurants, some better than high street ones, plenty of parking, good place to meet friends or family for a catch up; often the place to buy pet supplies or food for local wildlife (hedgehog food, floating duck food, wild bird seed); many have very good kitchenware sections for both indoor and outdoor cookery, many have clothing outlets, easier to move from one unit to an adjacent one than traipse across town between two shops?. With the closure of many department stores, the one place to find lots of different types of shopping under one roof
Mince pies , or minced-meat pies were originally (many hundreds of years ago) small pies of minced meat (lamb I think) sweetened with preserved fruit. Over time the amount of preserved fruit increased and meat decreased until today when minced-meat pies have no meat and the filling is only preserved fruit.
Doors in offices/schools/blocks of flats etc. often have an electromagnetic lock on them. From the outside you'd either use a keycard or ask someone inside to release the door using an intercom.
Buttons are for disable or less-able people that can’t open the door. Press the button and the door opens automatically. Or some are security doors where you need to buzz in and press the magnetic release to get out.

It was shocking to go to England from Scotland and discover the shops didn't open and the pubs were shut LOL
You are not offending anyone by not liking garden centres...we like what we like.. enjoying your take on our shores..I always enjoy listening to someone from another place commenting on our peculiar ways!! Keep your eyes on the skies and looking right in the traffic...
... well it appears to be offending the person below.
Heh, I'm a 32 year old British man, and I don't like them. I think I'm still scarred from going to them with my parents and being completely bored s***less looking at flowers all day.
I don't like flowers. They attract bugs and buzzing things that irk me. I'm a concrete jungle kinda guy
Captain Mainwaring also struggled with the 24 hour clock. See numerous episodes of 'Dad's Army' for examples....
I love garden centres and I love gardening. I sit and watch my gardener for hours planting what I bought at the garden centre.
Radiators get to about 60°C the ignition temperature for, without looking it up, cotton and polyesters is like over 200°C. You aren't gonna start a fire on a plumbed-in radiator. Electric radiators or propane radiators you could definitely start a fire with.
Different reason though. With an electric radiator, the risk is not from whatever you drape over the radiator getting too hot, it's from covering up the vents that the mechanisms inside need to keep air flowing.
@@stevieinselbyI think you’re confusing radiators with storage heaters, which you mustn’t cover.
The button beside a door to exit lead to the shut down of one local authority's entire computer centre. Somebody had put the emergency shutdown button near the exit door, unlabelled I think, and you can guess which button a visiting engineer used! All systems that ran through it, e.g. schools internet access, library services and so on, went off-line until the centre could be rebooted and that took some time.
Clothes sizes are just numbers. If you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius it's just the numbers that change not the temperature. In cloth shops you often see tables for the conversions of sizes. And some clothes also have lables attached with all the sizes for the different countries. In the end it needs to fit, that's all.
So true! If the clothing fits your body and looks flattering, that's all that matters! Also, I've found sizes to be pretty arbitrary, especially when it comes to small, medium, large, etc. Depending on the style, cut, and manufacturer, I can wear anything from a size small to XL, which I find crazy! 😃I never buy an item of clothing without trying it on first in multiple sizes, to get the best fit.
I’m 70 and I think I’m too young for garden centres!
I'm 71 and I agree!
I am 77 and cannot afford to go the Garden centres, why are they so expensive ?
@@blackvulcan100because just like everything else nowadays you're paying for the "experience", not just what you went to purchase
Well that is an "experience " I can do without. An experience in a garden centre really ??@@parshakamarsh
@@blackvulcan100 exactly 👍🏼
The thing about radiators is not to confuse them with storage heaters. Covering a storage heater with clothes is bad because that can block in hot air that is supposed to be free flowing, than that might just cause an increase in temperature to burn some fabrics.
My sister is over fifty and still doesn't understand the principal behind thermostats.
A UK household radiator isn't going to set anything on fire. Hanging clothes directly on it can dry them faster, at the cost of a sharp increase in wet-clothes smell in the room and possible marks/discolouration on the garment.
I often put my towel and underclothes on the radiatior on a winter's night to take the edge off of early mornings the next day.
Tar-tar sauce. 1 cup of mayo, 2 pickled gherkins or 4 cornichons chopped, 1 tbsp of capers chopped, loads of fresh dill and tarragon chopped. Add all to a bowl and loosen mixture with pickle juice or lemon. Taste and season. This is awesome with beef not just fish. It's incredible on a burger.. What's to be scared of???? 🙂
You're doing all that and I'm just buying a huge box of the Heinz stuff off Amazon every month xD
@@Hirotoro4692 Try it and you'll find the Heinz stuff SUCKS!!
@@Hirotoro4692 All that funny it's not rocket science plus it tastes way better
@@garthdev Try a little (English) mustard in the mix (or grated horseradish)… not too much as all you want is the pungency to lift the flavour a little, and counteract any excess acidity from the pickle liquor or lemon juice without removing their residual sweetness. I've also added a tiny pinch of chilli flakes on occasions, depending on what I'm using it on.
How very dare you!! Garden centres are awesome and I love them. It's not an age thing either, cos my grown-up daughters love them too. We especially love the restaurant. In fact my youngest, just said, "Can we go to Notcutts tomorrow?" when I suggested doing something together on my day off. 🤣🤣
How did your youngest react when she got her birthday card from the Queen?
Ironically my wife has a loyalty card for Notcutts 😂
@@gilledwards9302 Haha very funny.
Mincemeat originally had meat in it.
Together with dried fruits and sugar or honey. Proper mincemeat still has suet in it, which is beef fat, alongside the fruit.
Agreed, but also Meat also used to mean something that was food, so vegetables and fruit were also meat.
It's mince fruit ,not mincemeat
The dried fruits were put in the jars to preserve the meat and as the meat was used more was added to fill the jar, eventually only fruit left so that was used. Would have been around Christmas or New year by then. A diet of salted dried meats until the pigs were large enough to slaughter, only breeding stock could be kept over winter, pigs breed all year round.
Mince meat still means meat only in Australia
The Christmas mince pies used to have meat in them ,the dried fruits acted as a preservative and the spices were there to disguise the taste.
Meat is minced - mincED meat whereas the sweet is mincemeat.
@martynadams2011 Which actually used to be meat.
That is true now, but traditionally it was meat mixed with fruit and spices.
Don't know if it is relevant to this word but "meat" originally meant "food". i.e. anything edible not just flesh.
Well, they say confession is good for the soul, but I think you're going straight to hell for a couple of those! 😉
GGL I am 51, a widow, a mother & a Grandma & I don't remember the last time I visited a garden centre ... I have a yard - no grass, just a raised flower bed at the bottom of the yard, plus I don't plant flowers or plants, I just don't have any interest in them, neither did my hubby & my daughter has also not developed green fingers, so I totally get you with the lack of interest in garden centres.
The 24Hour clock - I was taught to subtract 2 from the last number, so 14:00 would be 2pm, 21:00 you would class the as 11:00 & subtract 2 giving you 9pm ... I prefer the 24Hour clock format because it removes any ambiguity with times.
Originally, mince pies had minced meat in them, but after the Crusades men were coming home from Jerusalem and Syria they started adding fruit which is a north African/middle eastern influence, over time the fruit content grew and the meat content decreased until today it is all meat.
On another note, Henry the 8th was a great lover of pies and demanded that there be some at hand at all times, though he got upset when he did not know which was a fruit pie and which meat, so they put pastry leaves on the fruit pies so he could tell them apart.
I hope that helps.
In theory a radiator could set something on fire if it has a low combustion point but it's extremely unlikely. What is more serious is that you are wasting a huge amount of heat from the radiator. It's much better to fit a rack onto the radiator and hang clothes on that or, better still, use a clothes-horse and sit it near a radiator, the clothes will dry much faster that way.
Re. the exit buttons - been there, done that….dontcha feel such a fool!?😆
Radiators, because they use water, can only ever reach a max of 100C (boiling point water), but no central heating can manage to truely reach that high, realistically the max temp is around 60C. This is usually harmless for most cottons, hoever, rubberised t-shirts and some synthetics may melt.
Hi Kaylin. Good to see you again. The buttons to let you put of buildings are mainly for security.
As for parallel parking there is a knack to it and once you understand the knack it's easy.
How to parallel park -: pull up alongside the car in front of the space you want to park behind, stop about a ft and a half from the car next to you. Put the car in reverse then turn the steering wheel to the left while reversing back into the bay sharply . When your passenger door mirror is level with the rear light of the car you want to park behind slowly turn the steering wheel to the right of the car while still moving backwards this will give you enough room for the bonnet to miss the corner of the car in front and straighten the steering wheel up this will park you neatly next to the kerb about a ft away from the kerb.
Ashley Neal absolutely despises those "tricks" because it varies from vehicle to vehicle. Best bet is to practice with your own vehicle in a quiet place
@@Hirotoro4692 What britbazza suggests, works for most vehicles. 95% of cars are pretty much the same shape. But practicing with your own car in a quiet place is good advice.
I've lived in England all 44 years of my life and there are still occasions where I have to look up where some town or other is on the map.
I know I would struggle to correctly mark the England/ Scotland border on a blank map. With major cities on it I could make a good stab at it, but on an blank map I'd struggle to be within 50 miles! (Brit in her 60's here)
I wish more people would talk about these sorts of things rather give the impression they are above everyone. I am sure we all have a list of this sorts of embarrassing things. I don’t like tea for example and lived in deepest west Wales for almost a decade without learning almost any Welsh!
Don't worry you're not alone! As a little kid i liked garden centres, a fun place to run around with pretty flowers, even a fountain. Then in 1987 i turned 7, since then, i see no point to garden centres. I've got a huge back garden, it's covered in grass, it doesn't need anything else. I have zero interest in gardening lol.
I'm in my mid-40s, England born and bred, and I don't get the attraction of garden centres.
Sure, on the rare occasion that I want to buy something for the garden, I'll go to a garden centre. And that's it. I'm not going to go there for a trip out, just to have a look round and have a cup of tea. It strikes me as what people do when they want to go to a National Trust property and look at the gardens but they're too tight to pay an entry fee...
You aren't old enough yet....
Your fears about driving in the UK are perfectly normal. While I obviously don't have any of them (I'm a Brit) you wouldn't catch me driving in the US for love nor money! I mean really - 4 way stop signs? 4 lane dual carriageways through city centres? Turning right on a red light? Driving in any lane you want at any speed (below the limit ofc)? Driving tests that basically just make sure you can start, stop and brake? What's all that about! Not to mention the complete lack of MOTs so people can drive whatever junk heap they want. No thanks - when in the US I will stick to taxis/ubers/aeroplanes thanks :)
I'm from continental Europe. Driving in Britain never was a problem. Just follow the cars ahead (more or less). Make sure the mirror on your right shows most of the area to your right AND everything on the right lane behind you. If necessary, mount a second mirror for the blind area.
BUT!
The really risky thing is beeing a pedestrian. No matter how often I remind myself before crossing a street, I always look first to the left and before I notice my mistake, the bus from the right is right in front of me.
Fun fact from my first visit to Britain in my own car 1980: My car had a Diesel engine and when the time came to fill up, I noticed, that there where no stations, that offered "Diesel". No "Oil" or "Gazoil" as well. Finally I saw a large semitruck pull out of a station and I tried it there. And there were several kinds of Gas or Petrol pumps and a mysterious pump with "DERV". That was the secret code word for Diesel (D-iesel E-ngined R-oad V-ehicle).
@@michaelschuckart2217 Oh wow! I'd forgotten about DERV :)
You are not alone!!! As a Brit I also occadionally turn left and then go round a roundabout or turn right into a side street , turn around and turn left into the main road. Turning right can be scary!!!
I love garden centres. They are my go to place for a relaxing midweek trip out. Coffee cake and plants! Whats not to love. They have reward cards too, quite often.
I prefer radiators, hot air just ends up causing a draught and drying your skin.
You don't like gardening! 😮😢
They DO have radiators on New York, but they are usually part og the piped steam system
They are in numerous cities throughout the U.S. My first two apartments, which were built in the early 1920s had radiators. I loved them.
I believe the buttons are to bar people from just entering a room or building Like schools or hospital wards. To enter you must be granted enrerance or have a code.
Yes - or sometimes to allow disabled people to have the door open automatically but without relying on sensors that would keep opening the door every time someone went near it.
She gave it away at the end - the receptionist yelled to press the button. Receptionist let her in. Pretty sure they have them in the States as well but she didn't visit access controlled buildings when she was there.
Regarding the 24 hour clock how are the Grayhound and Amtrack time tables listed.
In America for transport, they use the 12-hour time, and there is always a specification of AM and PM
@@MrPhil1503 I am sort of Dyslexic and get those two mixed up.
Radiators - Covered with Blazers and Smoking Jackets!
Don't Panic
Get out of the house, Save the cat and Call the Fire Brigade !
In Old English, meat meant general nourishing material. Also, I cannot hear the word mincemeat without thinking of Sweeney Todd!
In the US, exit buttons are more common in secure buildings.
Regarding driving, you do what feels right for you, if it feels right it is right. We are all different with different abilities & confidences.
#9 GARDEN CENTRES
You are allowed to not like them 😀 but it is not an age thing. But it will depend on the quality of garden centre.
They might include aquariums, pet stores, food halls, Xmas Grottoes, antique shops, (non-gardening) clothe stores, kiddy play pen, fun fare, giant maze, and one of our local one has a small zoo.
The buttons exist to release the magnetic lock that keeps the door shut so it can't be opened from outside by someone who doesn't have a keyfob to get in.
Don't feel embarrassed about the turning right thingy. My partner who is a really good driver and has been driving for more than 40 years, also will often do that.
It's called being a safe driver.
Well done you.
As a professional home delivery driver for years, I often did the 'roundabout' trick (or go 'round the block') to save time waiting to cross a busy main road to get from one residential side street to another in a large van. Even on a motorcycle, I'll sometimes turn left with the flow, crossing it, then U turning when there's a gap in the oncoming traffic, to turn left into the street I was opposite (I was a London despatch rider for several years too… Bike or van, it's all about keeping moving).
Great channel, Kalyn!
Always fun to watch.
Caution! Garden centres are for horticulture cultists.
I (a Finn) got my first driver license in Florida in mid 80's, and part of the driving test was parallel parking. Frankly it wasn't as harsh as it may sound, the driving test took place in a fenced (~100*100m) area with a 8 shaped test track behind DMV Lantana office and it was one person at a time taking the test.
That's hardly a proper driving test, is it?
@@hypsyzygy506 No, but that was how it was done in Florida 1984. Total price of the license including a restricted licence, a written exam (took maybe 5min), vision test, driving test and pictures was $13 if I recall correctly.
I think I drove 1-2 months with the restricted licence (required to be accompanied by a licence holder adult family member) before taking said "driving test" and getting a full licence.
Radiators usually have a dial on one side numbered 1-5 which helps regulate the heat. ❤ Also you're allowed to not like things in the UK. I dont even like garden centres 😂
Usually when you have a green button to exit it's so you don't need to use the access card or ring a bell to be let out. Sometimes for a gate they are further from the door to stop someone pressing it from outside with a stick
I've dried stuff on the radiator - Including books and other paper and cardboard things that either got tea spilt on them or wound up in a not-quite-waterproof bag while it was pissing it down - enough times that I really wouldn't be worried about things catching on fire from being on them.
There are very few substances that would suffer from autoignition at the temperatures a radiator will typically reach. All of which are heavily regulated. Your washing & pretty much anything else won't lead to a house fire if left on a radiator "too" long 😂
It will eventually lead to your radiators rusting & the paint covering flaking off though. I suggest to use a drying rack if you absolutely need to dry your clothes indoors.
I got locked in a toilet in our local hospital - there had been a huge refurbishment and I was unaware that the lock system had changed to a button you have to press to release the door catch - I had to call the receptionist to let me out 🙄😆
The buttons are there for security mostly. The blocks of council flats that I live in have it. If people want to get in they can buzz the flat number and I can talk to them over a intercom and I can let them in with my intercom. Then they can push the button on the main door to let themselves out when they go. It stops people gaining access tp the building that shouldn't be there....like the homeless sleeping in the corridors. When I go out I have an electronic key fob to open the main entrance doot to get back in. Simple really!
@Really-hx7rl Not really because they tailgate and it's hard to stop people following you in.
I am 62 and an English national and Garden Centres bore the pants off me ! Door buttons started for wheel chair users now they are just every wher and most are camoflaged silver and i too often look a dummy stood looking for the green or red button.
Military time and 24 hour are slightly different...Military starts with a leading 0 and doesn't use a colon where as 24 hour doesn't use a leading 0 and does use a colon (0800 v 08:00 or 2000 v 20:00)
We have the one way door thing at work. They have a green button to let you out but someone though it would be an amazing idea to put the firm alarm break point in the same location 😮
Omg! Garden centers!
Usually best for tea or brunch and bits and bobs!
Garden Centres - some are just for plants, some for plants and garden stuff - tools, bird feeders, furniture - and some are for a day out with a cafe, Christmas decorations, interior decor, gifts - basically a hypermarket without food but with garden stuff instead. They're great if you're into gardens and want ideas.
I do turn right. I was in the car with my 70 year old dad driving the other day. He was trying to turn right, I could literally see a roundabout, just down to the left. I did just have to ask him to use it.
One of my favourite restaurants is in a garden centre here in South Africa...Schafflers! Part of it is outside surrounded by flowers and plants...
Hi. About radiators. They never get hotter than the water pumped through them from the central heating boiler. I took the standard radiator out of my bathroom. When sitting down on the loo my legs were getting to hot touching the radiator! I had the radiator changed for a towel rail using the same pipe connectors. The towel rail is not as long but is so much taller, keeps my towels warm and cosy and keeps the bathroom warm, it doesn’t burn my legs!
2:20 What??!!? 😂😂😂😂
The electronic button to open a door to get out is usually on a door to a secured area with restricted or controlled access, such as a school, laboratory, medical facility etc. Access in to the area is controlled by a receptionist, electronic pass etc, but anyone is free to leave the area, hence the button.
Buttons to open doors for wheelchair access are on both sides of the door.
The radiator in my bathroom has bars, so that you can use it like a towel rack. Can confirm that there is no danger of cloth catching fire if left on a radiator.
Hi Kalyn you should have noticed that roundabouts do away with the need to turn right across traffic lanes.
When we visit my mum and we go out for a meal, we always call in at the garden centre on the way back to her house. BUT we only look at birthday cards and jigsaw puzzles!!!
My mother-in-law gave up driving she loved turning left wouldn't turn right. Good video
Hi I loved your video 😊, those doors confuse me too, and lots of other people, it’s quite a newish thing I think. As for parallel parking it is so hard, I can do it one way on the right but not to the left, only because we lived on a street that had no driveways! Mostly we have that breather intersection her on the Wirral which makes it so much easier to turn right, I hate it too and have been known to go to the next roundabout too. You’re doing really great. Radiators are harmless by the way.
You can get an app for your phone to put all your shop cards on.
I love her deadpan don't-give-a-f delivery. 👌🏼
Biggest danger with drying clothes on the rads is putting damp in the walls and having longer term issues with plaster going soft etc.
A lot of commercial premises have access control systems. These determine who has access to where. The doors usually, but not exclusively, have electro magnetic or solenoid controlled locks. If you are issued with a card or fob, again not exclusively, you can enter the area the door leads to or a member of staff can open the door to for you. To exit the area you have to release the lock to open the door by pressing a release button.
Buildings in 60s had hot air heating systems. Expensive and inefficient and would normally be replaced with wet radiator systems or white meter hearing (electric radiator system)
The last time I went to a garden centre was to buy a pair of shoes, as we have no shoe shops in the town where I live
Button to get out. I remember a case from America where some big politician person set off a fire alarm, then later claimed he was pressing the button to get out a door.

Cool video. What I've never understood about open door buttons is why some fckr has put the fire alarm button next to them. Also of note is that I feel no one in the UK will say meet me at 21 hours, they'll say 9pm. But visually only the 24 hour 'military' time rules like in train stations.
There’s actually a lot of parallel parking in Miami Beach. Waiting lanes, protected green and all way stop are some of the best things about driving in US.
I'm fine with 'ignorant but curious/willing to learn' - but wilful ignorance boils my piss. Genuine curiosity should always be rewarded with kindness, patience & understanding.
The buttons to exit buildings exist when the entry/exit door has some kind of electronic lock. You have to use a pass or use an intercom for entry but to leave you just press the button because the lock is designed to prevent unauthorised entry not prevent people from leaving.
Driving-I recall some years ago I was a postie in rural Devon. Sure the lanes are narrow but that's rarely a problem because we can drive, the same cannot be said for your countrymen. I had to reverse my Royal Mail van almost a quarter of a mile because the Septic coming towards me in his Mercedes hire car was incapable of reversing the, literally, 5 metres into the passing area.
I am well over 60 & I don’t like garden centres either, except the cafes/ restaurants within them!
Imagine if we all turned left instead of turning right to avoid the pier pressure. The extra mile we all do would gridlock the roads and cause unknown pollution. It`s a different world when you have so much space and energy costs are so low.
I'm English and got trapped in a building a few weeks ago that had a button. When did they become a thing lol? I've not seen one before.
Up north where I live a lot of junctions now have a marked right turn lane. Agree parallel parking is a pain. Reversing in is not too bad with sensors fitted but yep I will drive through in a car park, usually farther from the shops but why not, exercise is good for one. As for women's sizes, Marylin Monroe was a 16 by UK standards. Also lots of clothes now how all the weird national sizing systems listed.
Water based radiators are fine. Electric storage radiators, no
The door button you shown is a security release button. Normally connected to a lock or some sort of access control letting you out but restricting who comes in. Hence why they are found in schools and things. They is another type which is normally bigger flat and has a wheelchair symbol on it. These are normally for when the button opens the door as well or instead of releasing a lock
My mum goes to garden centres to meet her friend for tea. I don’t go to them as I don’t garden 🪴
We have 2 Garden Centres they are great; one sells lots of other stuff eg clothes, fruit, meat, supermarket etc. Buy some pot plants give it a go
Garden centres sell much more than plants, often locally sourced food; books, not just plant related, (good place to mooch if you are not into plants but the person you are with is in a trance looking for a particular tree!); cafes and restaurants, some better than high street ones, plenty of parking, good place to meet friends or family for a catch up; often the place to buy pet supplies or food for local wildlife (hedgehog food, floating duck food, wild bird seed); many have very good kitchenware sections for both indoor and outdoor cookery, many have clothing outlets, easier to move from one unit to an adjacent one than traipse across town between two shops?. With the closure of many department stores, the one place to find lots of different types of shopping under one roof
The green buttons on the doors are for security. They stop unauthorised people from accessing the building.
Mince pies , or minced-meat pies were originally (many hundreds of years ago) small pies of minced meat (lamb I think) sweetened with preserved fruit. Over time the amount of preserved fruit increased and meat decreased until today when minced-meat pies have no meat and the filling is only preserved fruit.
Doors in offices/schools/blocks of flats etc. often have an electromagnetic lock on them. From the outside you'd either use a keycard or ask someone inside to release the door using an intercom.
Buttons are for disable or less-able people that can’t open the door. Press the button and the door opens automatically. Or some are security doors where you need to buzz in and press the magnetic release to get out.
Garden centres are fun. The restaurants & cafes in them are always rammed. We went to one today for breakfast & didn't buy anything else.
