I'd agree, have seen a number of eclipses, mostly partial obviously, over the years, first one recalled was 1961. As recently as 2015 when the total eclipse path passed close to the NW coast of the UK. Certainly where I was, out by the riverside with the dog it was very eery. The light was very strange, colours faded almost to monotone, things became very quiet, quite eery at times. Not sure what % of obscuration
Not anything to lose your self control over, but as a rare once in a lifetime experience can understand why people really want to see a total eclipse. Have people really forgotten the hoohah in SW England in 1999?
Would you say it was eery, a bit eery, quite eery, or very eery?Not anything to lose your self control over, but as a rare once in a lifetime experience can understand why people really want to see a total eclipse. Have people really forgotten the hoohah in SW England in 1999?
Or does it annoy you beyond reason and therefore thread appropriate? Strange.

The American term "drywall".
Of course it's f
king dry, it's intended to be used indoors. What the fk use would wetwall be? And it's not a fking wall. It's boarding. Made out of plaster. Perhaps we could call it, oh I dunno, "plasterboard".
Pricks.
We call it drylining in this country too. Likely because there is no wet trade involved (bricks and mortar). It is a wall because it has metal or timber studs holding it up (instead of bricks/blocks). Of course it's f

Make sense to me.
Maybe if there was more of that, we'd get proper solid walls rather than partition walls that exist for no reason other them being cheap.

Most hot sauce tastes like that for me, which is annoying because I like spicy food
Yet to find a hot sauce that has a nice taste to it
It isn't very hot—I'd give it a 4/10 on the heat scale—but Huy Fong's sriracha sauce is very tasty. Flying Goose (I think it's more commonly found in the UK) is decent too.Yet to find a hot sauce that has a nice taste to it

You seem to be getting your knickers in a twist thinking it is just the plasterboard. Of course this is the beyond reason thread, so crack on

Drywall is referring to a system formed by the timber/metal studwork and plasterboard. To make a wall. Same as what we call drylining in the UK.
You seem to be getting your knickers in a twist thinking it is just the plasterboard. Of course this is the beyond reason thread, so crack on
Indeed.You seem to be getting your knickers in a twist thinking it is just the plasterboard. Of course this is the beyond reason thread, so crack on
However, the Yanks don't use the word plasterboard to just refer to the plasterboard. They call it drywall. So the word drywall can mean 2 different things. The plasterboard alone, or the whole installation.
This makes absolutely no difference to me in my life, but it annoys me beyond reason.
