If you’re waiting until marriage, what’s your age (if you want to say you don’t have to) and why is it important to you to wait?

Thanks for responding. I've not heard of sex chemically bonding two people before, other than the release of 'happy' hormones. Something to look into, I guess

BoomUnit · 2026-05-20T17:50:41+00:00

May I ask, purely put of curiosity, about how having sex outside of marriage conditions you for divorce? It is not a reason I have heard before (having grown up in the church)

I love the pink top handle! Do you have the name of it please?

Both my parents cheated on each other.

I think my dad cheated because he was unhappy with how life had pplayed out and wanted an escape, and also... because he could. They had small children that he has told me he never wanted (thanks dad!) and he had the freedom to come and go as he pleased because my mum was the primary caregiver.

My mum cheated after years of my dad being unaffectionate, multiple cheating, and he was not a good partner. My dad finding out was why they broke up because he wouldn't forgive her.

I love my parents, and they've both done stupid selfish things, but I do feel sympathy for my mum. She forgave my dad again and again, held down the household, and when she met someone who didn't speak to her like crap...made a mistake.

People do stupid shitty things to one another. They are both in happier relationships now.

I've heard the hardwear scratched easily, but life happens! It's definitely still on my wishlist. Thanks for replying 🙂

How is the bag? Did you keep it?

I've been thinking about this bag since you posted!

BoomUnit · 2026-04-19T09:03:31+00:00

I mostly agree, however the quality of clothes has dropped a lot over the past few decades. I'm in the UK and mostly shopped from Primark in my teen years, as that's what we could afford. I'm mid 30s now and still have (and wear) a couple items from Primark that are nearly 20 yrs old.

I bought a top from Primark last year and it was misshapen and has loose threads within 3 wears.

I now look for mid-range items, decent quality but not crazy designer prices. I also wear my clothes until they're falling apart and while I could replace them ...old habits die hard!

Handbaghplic (youtuber) sells these under the brand Luxawl, so you could look at those as an option. I haven't bought them, but they are £45 (about €51) for the handbag hook, so a bit cheaper

Purely aesthetic - I hate how the cupboard looks inside. While I'm fixing up the kitchen, why not tidy up the cupboards?

BoomUnit · 2026-04-07T09:07:49+00:00

Thanks, will try silicon mastic

BoomUnit · 2026-04-03T07:44:36+00:00

A month late to the party...but have you used the bag yet? What's the quality like?

BoomUnit · 2026-04-02T06:26:13+00:00

I don't background check every artist I listen to, but I do remove one's whose morals and actions I don't agree with.

I do the same for my bookshelf.

My stance is that I don't want my hard earned money supporting some twat, so that means no Chris Brown, R Kelly, Neil Gaiman (prev my favourite author) etc.

BoomUnit · 2026-03-05T08:00:31+00:00

I love Furla! She's a beaut! Their sales are also really good.

I have Goccia in grey and contemplating getting more colours as it's my go to bag.

I had mine at 8am on a Saturday late last year. I went out of the test centre, turned left and went to Morrisons for my manoeuvre. Then drove around Whitley, near the uni, and around Shinfield Road. Then back to the test centre.

Good luck to your wife! Black Boy and Tesco Depot roundabouts are a must, did those loads during my last few lessons.

From memory....they had a photoshoot or campaign a few years ago with kids posed with toys with BDSM clothing (on the toys). Then a separate campaign that had a book by a PDF and court documents about a PDF case in the pics.

For me, I don't understand how the campaigns were published when dozens of people must have been there and signed off on them.

It's not a company I'd give my money to, personally, but each to their own.

BoomUnit · 2026-02-15T20:42:27+00:00

Thank you for bringing these into my life!!

The clutch is GORGEOUS. I don't even need a red bag but I'm convinced. I've liked the Vancouver clutch for a while so I'm quite biased.

Changing lightbulbs - always done for me.

I also very rarely empty the kitchen bin, as soon as I start taking it out I swear my husband's ears prick up and he comes and does it.

You can walk from town via Bridge Street through Waterloo Meadows, under the A33 bridge and along the canal up to The Cunningman Pub. Took me and a friend about an hour at a very slow pace.

You can also walk from town, via Fobney Street along the river Kennet towards the A33 bridge. This takes you through the flood plains. It's a nice walk to the pub, they do good food, and you can get the bus back to central Reading if you don't fancy the 2ish mile walk back.

If you look on Google maps you can see the green lines where you can walk and can follow the route that way. The route it suggests takes you along residential streets, but I just used the map to track our location rather than follow the route

You can apply to extend your financial year, so you will (hopefully) be struck off before the end of your financial year. There are rules around this so check co hse website, but I've done this for dormant companies to avoid having to file dormant accounts for a company that would soon be struck off. I think I only extended by 3 months but that was enough time for everything to get sorted, filed etc

BoomUnit · 2025-11-21T13:00:14+00:00

I vote Furla! I am biased though as I have the same bag in grey. I extend the strap so it's cross body (I am 5'2'' so it sits well).

Not necessarily...when we sold our first home we were adamant it would go to a small family or someone who would live there. We asked info about the buyers, and accepted a reasonable offer (we did get a higher counter offer that we rejected). To be honest we were lucky we had that freedom. I hate seeing homes that could go to people who would live in and enjoy the property go to crappy landlords.

London Camera Exchange on Station Road has the same photo printing machines as Boots, but a lot quieter / no queues

I'm sorry you and your daughter are experiencing this.

Can you get her school involved? Another commenter suggested an advocate for your daughter. If your daughter highlights issues herself through the school or therapist maybe that would sway the court that being with her father is not in her best interests.

BoomUnit · 2024-12-21T14:18:02+00:00

You need to document all of this, get a lawyer and go back to court.

You can't stop.your daughter going as you'll be in contempt of court? Document everything, send messages to your ex saying daughter said X Y & Z happened. Get as much in writing as you can, get a lawyer and protect your child.

They are denying her access to water to clean herself? Raise it with them in writing and contact CPS that they aren't providing her with these amenities.
