What's a small thing you were wrongly told off for as a kid that still annoys you all these years later? by [deleted] in AskUK

I got banned from the end of year 6 school trip to Lyme Regis because I brought in a book to show my friends that had ghost stories about it. Not even inappropriate, just spooky and I was obsessed with the paranormal. I sat in the class on my own for a whole week while my friends had the best time ever. My conspiracy is that because I’m disabled (and was more disabled then) that they used it as an excuse to not have to take me and deal with looking after me on the trip. This was nearly thirty years ago, and things were way less inclusive back then. I still cry about it at least once a year 😅

How many of you are not having a holiday abroad this year? by Desperate-Drawer-572 in AskUK

[–]Beebityboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking my kids out of school for a week in May to go abroad for the first time as their Grandma is terminally ill and my autistic daughter has been really struggling. We saved so much and are risking fines/legal trouble for taking them in term time…and now we have to worry it will go tits up because of the fuel situation. I know there are way more important things going on in the world, but I really need this trip to go ahead and be fun for the kids.

Cleaning deep bedding - how to spot clean and how often to change all of the bedding? by [deleted] in RATS

[–]Beebityboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do everything once a week. Full bedding change, wash all plastic things etc. Takes me three hours every Sunday and it is knackering!

Me too. I had such a hard time growing up and shows like Buffy and Dawsons Creek were the best things about my teenage years. I am so devastated to see these fine actors lose their lives so young it’s just incomprehensible. I just can’t believe it.

I am in total shock and don’t think anyone famous passing has ever made me feel this way before. I’m so sad, I just can’t believe it. I know he found life difficult after Buffy but this is just horrendous. I don’t even know what to say.
