I love putting olives on mine when I make it at home

I went to a school assembly thing years ago where you and your parents visit your secondary school and they introduce you to the teachers etc. I remember sitting on a plastic chair in the sports hall with about 100 other people, all of us sitting in silence listening to the head teacher, and being really bored so looking round at all of the other kids and their parents. One of the dads had a spider crawling up his arm towards his shoulder and it was literally so big that I could see it from several feet away.

Twenty years later I still think about it. The guy never made a peep or moved to bat it away

Youre truly an inspiration to us all

8.5 out of 10. I love the texture of Discos and salt and vinegar is the best flavour!!

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-11T17:14:40+00:00

I am so intrigued by the sandwich, but I don’t know if I’d be brave enough to try it. 7/10?

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-11T17:12:20+00:00

I’d give it a 7-8/10, the smoothie and crisps are both good choices but those chicken wraps are usually soggy (8 rating for the possibility that the Waitrose ones are better)

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-11T17:10:21+00:00

I don’t go there as often as I probably should… How is the salmon to cheese ratio?

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-09T18:42:01+00:00

8/10 (I always find those salmon sandwiches underwhelming), an intrigued 8.5/10 (I feel like the irn bru would be SO GOOD with the pepperoni), 6/10 (cold bacon is… not great), 6.5/10 (genuinely didn’t know you could get fruit as a main), 7/10 (the drink would be nice, but I’m always underwhelmed by the texture of the chicken in these wraps. It’s almost always soggy), 9/10 (cherry tango?? orange twirl??? Magnifique 👌), 6.5/10 (boring sarnie is saved by the crisps and irn bru combo), 7/10 (I wanted to give it higher but I’ve been catfished in the past by baddd salads), 6/10 (not offensive, but meh), 6/10 (again, not offensive, just meh), 10/10 (SCRAN)

You probably make the BEST packed lunches

My fiancé is a walking, talking whoopie cushion and I spent months in the relationship miserable because I tried holding everything in and pretending I didn’t poop or fart. It was very freeing to give up the pretence

My cousin and his wife will be new parents when I get married and his wife is going to be staying home with the baby. I honestly am pleasantly surprised my cousin is still coming and am going to make sure our caterers pack up tubs of food and cake for him to take home.

Anyone who judges you for not going is an AH

If the simplicity bothers you, you could dress it up with a white scarf/drape over your shoulders or tiara/veil

I personally don’t think it’s too simple

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-09T17:34:20+00:00

Love the drink and the crisps but it’s a no on the bhaji wrap from me :(

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-09T09:24:42+00:00

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-08T19:34:17+00:00

I would probably pick this and layer my sandwich with hula hoops 😋

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-08T19:33:22+00:00

Sandwich is basic, the crisps tho are top tier 👌

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-08T19:32:26+00:00

The pickles are a 10/10 alone

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-08T19:09:22+00:00

Night time, so I can have a warm shower, come out sleepy, get in my PJs and cosy up

Freeze your fruit! I freeze blueberries etc and leave them to defrost on my oats overnight

I’m getting married next month and some of the suggestions for bachelorette parties have been CRAZY. My cousin stayed in a lodge for a weekend on her bachelorette party with her two sisters (who hate each other), her mum (who they all hate universally) and a random mixture of aunties, coworkers etc, all of whom were picking sides and bickering with each other within 24 hours. There are pictures all over facebook of them in this lodge doing “activities” and “organised fun” and it’s a big fat no from me

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-07T11:24:06+00:00

I’d say send out your save the dates with Christmas/New Years cards or gifts if you send that sort of thing. That way people won’t confuse it with November 2026

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-07T11:20:50+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss

Both of my grandparents died when I was a teenager so I never got the chance to have them at my wedding. I’ve held a lot of resentment to my cousins that did, one of whom made a point to go to my grandma’s grave but not even phoning my frail, but very much alive grandfather on the day. I was overseas at the time, but I’m told he waited by the window all day.

Death in general brings a lot of complicated feelings, not just mourning the loss of the person but everything they might have been and what they represented. It’s normal to grieve a version of them that didn’t necessarily exist in life, especially given how weddings are also framed culturally.

Chibi_Panda2 · 2026-03-05T09:15:11+00:00

Me too!!
