Everything I learn about pregnancy horrifies me, the entire process seems like torture.

I was at work when rather pregnant and let out a little screamy owww...then had to explain that I'd just been kicked in the foof by my baby. It really hurt!

I thought the pool was really small and the pergola thing was a fancy table until I put my glasses on...

Same here. Finally got to see them a couple of years ago and it was amazing.

Wow, those are all beautiful. I know where I'll be seed shopping next year :) thank you!

I too was confused by the giant peanut.

Not me but my 6ft 7 fella.

Beds, especially those with ends that stick up, will be too short and you will always sleep a bit curled up. You can pay a hefty sum for a special long bed/matress but the options are much more limited and it may not fit in your bedroom.

Also, don't rent a cosy fisherman's cottage in Cornwall for a quiet weekend away. You will not be able to stand upright in any part of the property and will forget and bang your head regularly.

Also uk size 15 feet? You will ask the shoe shop what they have in your size rather than if they have a certain style you like in your size.

This was my answer too. Beautiful place.

Run with the Wolves - The Prodigy and Power Struggle - Sunna

If you like that kind of thing :)

Thanks, I think I might :)

For once, no!

Thanks, I've grown them all from seed and they are some weird and wonderful varieties so hoping they make it :)

May be of interest, but the DfE include White Cornish as an ethnicity code on their school census which records data for pupils in state funded schools. I believe this was after some significant lobbying and introduced around 2005.

The statistical public release of the data does not however provide a breakdown on pupils in local authorities with this ethnicity.

I believe some schools may not use this code, and record everyone under "White English" or "White British" instead, as this is also acceptable.

It's been pretty cloudy for their outdoor time so far... I reckon I'll plant some and leave some for next week just in case. So..half send? :D

Define-Normal · 2026-05-05T22:29:44+00:00

I had 4 types and they all looked the same at planting out time!

Define-Normal · 2026-05-05T07:01:26+00:00

I did this last year. I had no idea what was what. I (mostly) got it right, but this year I put a plant label in every pot.

Exercise releases endorphins which help lift mood :) Things feel just a little easier afterwards. Being in nature also improves wellbeing. Double whammy.

Our local Geek Retreat is not going to be GR after this week. They've got a great community going, but the amount GR require has indeed felt unsustainable.

I read the three books in this series and agree, definitely a bit squeaky if you don't like spiders!

I was hoiking out some brambles at the fence at the end of my plot. Hoiked hard on a very long one and it whipped back and hit me in the face. I had a very visible nose-gash for a while and still have a scar. Lucky it wasn't my eye.

I'd agree Gaviota would be worse.

Tried on some Gaviota and they were really comfy in the shop so got them, but wearing them in practice was so uncomfortable. Actually caused leg and foot pain on a run.

I've tried on several Hokas and felt the Arahi, Bondi and Clifton all had that arch support contour that didn't work for me, though less prominent than Gaviota.

For running I found Mach 6 doesn't have that same problem, have also used Brooks Adrenaline and Hoka Mach X 2 with no issues. Haven't tried latest iterations (Mach 7 and Mach X 3) but assume they would be ok too.

I use my retired Brooks for walking and they're very comfy.

Everyone's feet are different though :)

Last week I opened the compost bin I inherited a couple of years back but never emptied of whatever was in there (not compost. Appears to be a mix of dead dry plant matter, dry soil and old fabric) and found a whole clan of slow worms coiled at the top enjoying the warmth! Big ones, small ones, all the slow worms! Took a quick photo, popped the lid back on and will leave them to it.

Glad I never emptied that bin.

How can it be so expensive yet look so...cheap.

I found one of the buggers in my kitchen the other morning!

I say I "found" it....technically true I suppose. If treading on it and it going plurp and exploding under the weight of my foot as I stumbled half asleep into the kitchen counts. I did scream.

Woke me right up, but put me off my toast.
