- A guide to moving out Part 2 - the cost of living

 

 -Cheap meals and tricks-

 

As i was reading my old posts i saw the cheap meal idea posts and it got me thinking about just how much the cost of food has gotten worse so i thought it would be a good idea on updating the meal ideas and maybe throwing in a few more ! 

Last time i showed you a few cheap meal ideas for under £5 so ill aim for that again this time ill show you a  few ideas from sainsburys

First a tried and tested idea noodles! ko-lee noodles
from sainsburys are just 30p cheap and tasty, as before id go for the chicken flavour , its worth looking out for cheap noodles, if you add the right stuff it can taste great 


If noodles are not your thing Id surgest going for potatoes you can get 2kg of baking potatoes for around £1.80 it will provide a hot meal thats nice and filling when added with the veggies and bacon

Now for the vegetables , when trying to get a good amount of vegetables in  your diet it can be hard on a budget both me and my partner are dibetic so we are allways being told to eat right a good diet , thats easier said then done!
 

We try and  get a bag off frozen vegetables 1 kg from sainsburys will set you back 99p for stamford street. co theres more types off veggies in here then the tescos own brand and it works out 10p cheaper ! and you can get easy a weeks worth of veggies from it ! 

 

So far that leaves you with £3.71 from your £5. now depending on if you eat meat you could go for a pack of stamford street co. cooking bacon for £1 buy cutting a few bits up and lightly frying then adding to the cooked noodles and veggies it ill make for a easy and cheap dinner if your on a tight budget 



If bacon isnt your meat of choice they do have chicken nuggies! they do cost 10p more , but should work on the side of the plate with everything else.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ok so your left with £2.60 a loaf of bread from sainsburys stamford street range will cost  47p , they have both wholemeal and white so you can take your pick ! ive seen that butter can be quite expensive so id try and find a good deal on it if your happy enough to shop about you can get tescos butter for 95p for 500g 

Problem being is how long will it last ? if your going to use it for more then buttering bread , like lightly frying your bacon you'll need more so id go for a bigger tub, like sainsburys butter soft it tastes just like lurpak for half the price you cant knock it , ok its still 500g for around £2 but it will last so much longer then the tescos its well worth it.


 - reduced food - 
Most supermarkets will mark down their stock either the items damaged or close to sell by date you can useally tell the items by a yellow sticker though out the day  this is a great way to pick up a bargin for things you wouldnt useally beable to get , the best time to go in is in the evening times tescos useally do there last reduction around 8pm , its worth poping in if you have the time. it might be a little busy around the reduced sections but if you can get a chance to check it out its worth it !

So ill leave this post here , i hope this helps im planing on doing a blog about the cost of electric supplyers and whats the best option to go for ,  so keep an eye out !

If you have any cheap  meal ideas please feel free to comment below!

WE'RE BACK!

Ok so ive been gone way too long,  with way too much going on to talk about, ill skip all of that and just talk about what ill will be doing with the blog from here on out, photos! Cameras! Some gaming, Pokemon cards!  And general moaning about everything and anything! I'm hoping to update every weekend so stay tuned for more ! 😊


This weekend ill start off with a few photos ive been taking over the past few months taken with a canon eos 100d  a nifty little camera i picked up on holiday. After a quick google i found the manuals for it , i spent 2 weeks reading and re- reading them with loads of trail and error, to my suprise  i managed to take a few half decent photos!
being pretty new to this i still want to give it a lot of practice mainly as its giving me a reason to get outside and get some fresh air 😅

Reading more about the cannon camera online i found so many different tips to try out from different filters to playing around with aperture and how to set up the right lighting for the shots you want to take , like this black and white photo i waited for the golden hour in the evening just as the sun was setting i snapped a great shot. Giving the photo  depth with out losing the right balance between light and dark.

A great tip ive picked up is if your not sure how the lighting is for the shot you want, try taking it in black and white first , you'll get a clear layout of how the lighting looks before you take it in full colour.  working with different filters ontop of black and white can  also give the subject more depth like this tree.

Using the intense filter and a small aperture i gave the tree more of a lonely effect or a greater depth of field  while thanks for the intense filter , it gives it more of a  strong shadow look.




Ill finish off this post with a few different photos from the past few months and remember to check back in from time to time for any new snaps!

Toby Turner - another one bites the dust -






It seems not that long ago a different youtuber was being accused of rape and now its Toby turners turn.

On April 8th 2016, YouTuber AprilEfff released a Tumblr post claiming that Toby Turner had abused, raped and drugged her during their relationship in 2013. This was then picked up by drama-alert ( a youtube channel with front man keemstar ) and as you can guess it got a lot of attention , now a lot of woman have come forward to say they have experienced pretty much the same from Toby.

April says in her post that she is “NOT the only one who has experienced the abuse from him”. She also reveals that Toby would act like “a god” to where he thought “he was immune to all rules”. They soon got into an argument over the subject of abortion after he said “some girl was aborting his baby”. She states that he punched a hole in the wall but later covered it with a calendar before calling her a “faggot” and stating that he hated her blonde hair (which she later dyed brown). He then goes on to state that he forcibly had sex with her as she cried for him to stop. She goes on to tell the story of how Toby slipped MDMA into her alcohol (a deadly combination of substances) before apologising in tears for what he had done. She doesn’t remember anything after that.



 
It’s difficult to confirm that AprilEfff, who’s real name is April Fletcher, was actually dating Toby however her early Instagram posts proves that she was in fact close to him. This is happening roughly a year after the Sam Pepper allegations. So did Tobuscus rape and drug his ex-girlfriend?


well the Internet is torn as perusal if you go to drama alerts new video you'll see lots of comments saying shes a attention seeking whore  , BUT with the big youtube stars coming out to support April its really hard to tell whats going down.

After the post was made another smaller You Tuber and Playboy model by the name of Amelia Talon came forward with a YouTube video in which she stated she does “not doubt April at all” and has “witnessed first hand what he does to other women”. She states that he had on multiple occasions became “sexually aggressive” and even heavily pressured her and tricked her into taking Ecstasy (MDMA/Molly) and Cannabis (Marijuana/Weed). On March 8th 2014, Toby accidentally left a smoking pipe and lighter in the background of his Walking Dead play through video on his most popular channel Toby Games which caused a small controversy on Reddit and in the YouTube comments. Cannabis is a Class-B drug however is medically legal in California and so it’s unsure as to whether Toby was purchasing it legally or if the pipe was being used for that at all. Although, MDMA is a Class-A drug which could land Toby in prison for up to 7 years for possession or 25 years for supplying it to April and other ex-girlfriends. Amelia claims in her video that Toby would get his “MDMA from pornstars” who he later cheated with. One day later he revealed a vlog titled “I’M GOING TO JAIL” in which he claimed that the pipe was sent to him by a viewer.

with all this going on you would wonder what the hell he would have to say about it ... well in fact hes said nothing at all but his mother has YEP his mum if any of this is true and i mean IF surely he would be screaming from the roof tops ? instead of hiding and his mum having to step in , now I'm not saying what his mum did is wrong any parent would want to defend their child , surely though an innocent man would speak for him self..

Girl that Fucks Dogs Yup this is real.








So ermmm yea.. latest news from the ark side of you tube is about Miss Whitney Wisconsin , little miss dog fucker (yes that is real ) a few months ago leafy covered a video by her in were she talks about how she gets far to close to mans best friend.

I'm lost for words really I mean EW EW EW and EW! that's just OMFG EW !!! really someone like this needs to be banned from the Internet what influence could she have on others? she says you cant get std's from dogs ( OK maybe that's true ) but what about the other illness's you can get ? think id be more worried about the dog catching something from her







what of her family / parents this is all over the Internet what must they think ? its not just lil' dog fucker that gets effected its also her family to.



with the Internet making the world a smaller and smaller place when she gets older this will come back to bite her in the arse she may love the attention now but she cant ever let this go.

and what's her next move ? to stalk the lizard king him self I'm talk about leafy of course now hes pretty much a dick, but with a crazy girl like this id run like fuck.

 Whitney's Rise to Shame

Recently she has made a bit of a splash around the Internet with a controversial video, in which she masturbates in a Wal Mart bathroom while wearing a playboy bunny outfit, leaves the bathroom without washing her hands, then walks around the store asking men if the "perfume" on her fingers smells good. With such memorable reactions as, "What the Hell is that" and "Not great, not bad. I don't know, it smells weird", she totally got them you guys ha ha.

Hilariously, everyone except for an extremely old man said they either couldn't smell it, or it smelled bad, so the end result of her "prank" is basically people telling her that her own pussy stinks.

what a dumb fucking bitch.

More Cheap Meals ideas - the guide to moving out part 1 -





A week to Pay Day you look in the kitchen and you see sod all , you check the bank and you got £5 to do the week for meals that's 3 a day for 1 week so what do you do ? sit in a corner and hide ? looking at pictures of food on line watching you tube videos of epic meal time getting to the point  where you want to eat the screen ? 


well we've all been there your literately thinking what would ice soup would taste like , or if you pick the mold of the bread could you still eat it with out sitting on the loo the rest of the day swearing lots...

well never fear I can help you cook some great cheap meals that will last you about 1 week here are a few tips to help you on the way :

lets break it down you've got £5 for meals that's enough for :

Tesco value bread at 40p 
Tesco value beans at 39p
Tesco value soft cheese 49p


Lets start of simple , if you have a sandwich toaster your sorted with this, simply spread the soft cheese on the bread and add 2 table spoon fulls of beans in the middle add the other slice on top then place in a warm sandwich toaster let it cook for a few minutes until golden brown. take it out and you'll have a quick snack that's great any time.

If you don't have a sandwich toaster its OK , simply toast the bread under the grill with the soft cheese and cook the beans separately then Dig in . The beans you don't use put in a air tight container for next time !


So after that you got 3.72 left another great idea is 

Tesco value pasta at 30p
Tesco value everyday value mixed veg (frozen ) 89p 

and the soft cheese from the last meal :) 

OK cook the pasta and veg in the one pan ... add the soft cheese its a great quick dinner that you can keep in the fridge if you cook to much for next time. As for the amounts you cook that's up to you personally I cook about 2 handfuls of pasta and a bout the same for the veg.

So that's 2 meals down already and we have 2.53 left 

a absolute god send for me is noodles Tesco value ones at 20p per pack you cant beat it , if you cant get the 30p pasta from tescos go for a pack of value noodles the chicken ones are the best if you cook them in a pan with the frozen veg add some mayo its just as good.

 so lets get some meat... 

first things first bacon you gotta have bacon 

Tesco smoked bacon 7 slices for 1.50 
Tesco Everyday Value Eggs Minimum Weight Box Of 6 for 70p 
and Tesco value noodles 20p 

so simple a child could cook it , cook the noodles and fry the bacon cut the bacon up in to little bits and mix with the noodles then fry on egg ( soft yolk or hard which ever you like ) add the egg to the top of the noodles and bacon  and there you go! its so good you cant beat it.


from this you should have some left overs weather its the bread the soft cheese or the bacon work around with the ingredients and see what happens !

from time to time ill post more and more tips to moving out and surviving the world out side from budgeting the balance to trying to write a C.V so keep your eyes peeled !

Brussels under attack








The world wakes up to yet another terror  attack this time Brussels has seen the horror of suicide bombings. reports say that More than 30 people are believed to have been killed and dozens injured in attacks at Brussels international airport and a city metro station

Twin blasts hit Zaventem airport at about 07:00 GMT, with 11 people reported killed. Another explosion struck Maelbeek metro station near EU headquarters an hour later, leaving about 20 people dead.

It really is sicking to see what the world has come to , with no reason behind it, the evil in the world decides to kill in the name of their 'god'. Now I use that term loosely  as I cant fathom a god or religion that would be OK with killing in their name.

witlessness at the scene said they heard bullets being fired and shouting in Arabic before the two explosions. Others said that people fled the first blast, only to get caught in the second A third bomb failed to detonate and was destroyed by the security services.

My heart really go's out to the  people in brussels I and the world will as the world did with France stand with you. If you look on line you can see so much love from face book to youtube to reddit its sad to see , but great at the same time it fills the world with love.

so why is it sad ? well with all the good wishes and love in the world its not going to fix it.

The Islamic State (IS) group said it was behind the attacks in a statement issued on the IS-linked Amaq agency.

Belgium has raised its terrorism alert to its highest level. Three days of national mourning have been declared.

Prime Minister Charles Michel called the latest attacks "blind, violent and cowardly", adding: "This is a day of tragedy, a black day... I would like to call on everyone to show calmness and solidarity".

The Fine Bros Fuck up...







So the latest Internet drama is The Fine Bros in a nut shell it seems they have tried to Copy right the 'react' word simply believing they have the rights to use it and no one else does. what utter crap, I mean what the hell were they thinking ? that the Internet would bend over and say yeah sure ? 

This probably isn’t the way the Benny and Rafi Fine expected their big announcement to go.
 
they just announced a new plan to have fans around the world make their own “React” videos - you know, things like “kids react to the first iPod” or “grandparents react to the latest Nicki Minaj video” - with a percentage of the ad revenue from those fan-made videos going to Fine Brothers Entertainment:

and even now they have back tracked like mad they are still losing subs like crazy currently at 13,768,162 and falling it doesn't look like they're going to recover any time soon. Its turning in to a massive witch hunt a massive rolling stone that's not going to stop.

For most Internet users and you tubers its pretty much watching the fall off an empire, from a channel that's been growing since Joined Jun 4, 2007 its pretty much exploded with the Fine bros earning a cool £18.6K - £297.5K  Estimated Monthly Earnings and now its in for an epic crash and burn.  The problem is clear they got way to greedy 

 

now the problem is most gamers when making you tube videos are basically reacting to the game so will that be a issue ? if the fine bros actually managed to trade mark that word react does that mean any add money you made from said video goes to them ? or would you need to take said video down? 

well fuck that

Since their announcement on Tuesday, the Fine Brothers have lost more than 170,000 followers from their You Tube channel.  

The Fine Brothers have become the convenient face of many people's frustrations. A lot of people don't like how content take down system works and that it treats you as guilty until proven innocent. That has helped this become the perfect storm of anger.

think ill leave it at that , needless to say I hope if they do live pass this they learn from it.

Mr. Mystery Guest? Are you still there? - RIP Mr Alan Rickman -







 


To start the new year on such a bad note is never good , to say good bye to yet another great actor such as Alan Rickman is gut wrenching. He charmed us all with such greats as Sheriff George of Nottingham ( robin hood ) or the incredible Hans Gruber (Die Hard ) and of course Severus Snape from Harry Potter. this is an Actor that charmed us in to hating and loving the characters he brought to life. a true thespian of English actors.

 Alan Rickman was born on a council estate in Acton, West London, to Margaret Doreen Rose (Bartlett) and Bernard Rickman, who worked at a factory. He has English, Irish, and Welsh ancestry. Alan has an older brother David, a younger brother Michael and a younger sister Sheila. When Alan was 8 years old, his father died. He attended Latymer Upper School on a scholarship. He studied Graphic Design at Chelsea College of Art and Design, where he met Rima Horton, who would later become his life partner. After three years at Chelsea College, Rickman did graduate studies at the Royal College of Art. He opened a successful graphics design business, Graphiti, with friends and ran it for several years before his love of theatre led him to seek an audition with the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). At the relatively late age of 26, Rickman received a scholarship to RADA, which started a professional acting career that has lasted nearly 40 years, with no signs of stopping, a career which has spanned stage, screen and television and has lapped over into directing, as well.






So with this I'll say Rest in Peace Mr Alan Rickman.
