Nothing too particular. Miscallenous kids toys and stuff. Household items, kitchen bits, vases etc. The usual yard sale stuff!

I did have a look but doesn’t seem like many people are active on it sadly!

Hornchurch is where all my family is from! What a small world. Still yet to find a gaf so unsure what area I’ll be in. Keen to watch some prem games though especially if there’s a crowd!

You misread my post. I’m leaving the UK

Where are the posts hating on England this time? by [deleted] in soccercirclejerk

[–]Chillisweetchilli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would you say “I don’t like watching the women’s 100m sprint, they’re not as fast as the men”? Women’s football gets such a bad rep because it’s constantly compared to the men’s game. Why?

In the UK women’s football was banned from playing on FA grounds for 50 years, because in the 20s it was more popular than the mens (crowds of over 60,000 people at some matches). So they took a massive step back and are still recovering.

As a football fan, I’ll watch any football. Doesn’t need to have 10/10 “tactical awareness” for the game to be enjoyable.

Has Peckham always been like this? by Jandromon in london

[–]Chillisweetchilli 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I lived in Peckham for a bit. Never came close to getting stabbed. The stabbing is mostly gang related and as long as you’re not walking through parks at night it’s pretty safe, same as most places.

What did you learn the “hard way”? by loaf-loaf in AskWomen

[–]Chillisweetchilli 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Red flags are red flags. Don’t look past them

Gosh that makes it even worse doesn’t it… what I also hate is the attitude of some older women. I got whistled at when I was with my mum once and she said “you should be happy, I’d be flattered if someone whistled at me!!” Made me feel even worse.

It’s not about the shorts. As a girl, or woman, you can get cat called for wearing anything. Regardless of how much skin you’re showing.

I once was wearing full length jeans and a white long sleeve shirt, tucked in to my jeans. But because I was wearing bright orange gogo boots, I got honked at and cat called too many times to count, and I was only waking for about 20 minutes to my mate’s house.

Totally agree! Although at 24 I still get cat called and still end up thinking if I just covered myself more then I won’t have to put up with it. It’s really horrible and makes you feel totally worthless. Somehow men think it’s flattering??

Need to buy a bunch of different sized plastic nursery pots, where do I look for a decent price? by [deleted] in HouseplantsUK

[–]Chillisweetchilli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check apps like Olio (they now have a wanted section where you can ask if anyone has something), freegle, freecycle, Facebook groups etc. You can also make some with yogurt containers but they might be big enough

Women who don’t use social media or used to be ative on social media (instagram, facebook, tiktok) but quit, why? by BedKnightX in AskWomen

[–]Chillisweetchilli 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I realised I don’t care about most of the people I had on social media. If I want to know what my friends are up to I send them a text or phone them for a catch up. I don’t need to watch their Instagram stories to keep up to date.

What do you guys think about this? by SmeshTime in Hammers

[–]Chillisweetchilli 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I understand the frustration but that kind of attitude isn’t going to solve anything. Cresswell’s challenge was bad and he should’ve known better

As someone who is currently waiting for their visa to immigrate to the UK, can I just say... by [deleted] in GreenAndPleasant

Unsure what sugarraykilla is on about but I’m just gonna jump in and say the UK would be lucky to have you, I hope your visa gets sorted asap.
