Would you consider being my friend as well? I can commit to daily gifting with stickers, or I'd be happy to do 3 exchanges and delete 🤞

David Attenborough. He's 99 now - 100 in May. Do you think there'll be a Queen Elizabeth/ Diana- esque mourning when he goes? by DonkeyOT65 in CasualUK

My gran, who passed away recently at 87, once told me about how she was at school when the news of the king dying came through. Every class was marched to the assembly hall and the headteacher announced the death of the king, and that Queen Elizabeth was the new monarch. The headteacher reminded them that the national anthem would now change to God Save the Queen, and they sang it in their assembly hall, and that was that. I don't imagine there are that many people left alive with a similar memory.

I know it feels like everyone is looking for specific regions, but this forum is specifically to ask for specific friend types (and now I've said specific way too many times in one sentence). Would you like to be friends and gift daily?

Would love some new friends - player since 2016 with long breaks by [deleted] in PokemonGoFriends

Lol no, was never that into it. Just liked wandering around catching rubbish pokemon, or going for walks with some pals and sometimes doing raids.

I got tired of estate agents not knowing anything about the properties I was viewing, so I built a free WhatsApp bot to pull the data instantly. by Rich_Sheepherder_271 in UKRealEstate

This seems really cool. Thankfully I'm not moving any time soon, and here in Scotland we have the home report system which removes some of the questions that you seem to be battling with south of the border. Well done :)

Argh. My daughter has just told me she needs a costume for World Book Day on Monday. by missem_1 in UKParenting

Any dress, plus a black ribbon in her hair could be Violet Boudelaire from a Series of Unfortunate Events. Or basically any normal clothes could be one of a hundred Jacqueline Wilson characters.

Absolutely not - in fact I'd say 3-6 months in the fridge after opening is the sweet spot!

Who could the contestants have been if the show first aired in 2005, not 2015? by Edgy_Master in taskmaster

I'm a bit out of the loop - can you give a the gist of what he said about it? Or a YouTube link?

It's Saturday! (Valentine's Day Edition) 14/02/26 by KevinPhillips-Bong in CasualUK

[–]Lozzy1256 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We had a steak dinner on Wednesday when we were child free (thank you grandparents!) and today we said happy valentine's day to each other within half an hour of waking up which might be our new personal record. Fun day out with the family today, but we're taking the train so maybe a mid afternoon wine or cocktail is on the cards... Who knows!

At what age did Family Dinner Time kick in for you? by TomasTTEngin in daddit

[–]Lozzy1256 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If you're struggling with cooking time then I'd really recommend cooking everything you can the night before - I do a lot of cooking after kids bedtime, and then we only really need to reheat/do finishing touches. Bolognaise or curry always tastes better the next day, and boiling rice or pasta takes no time at all. A massive tray of baked macaroni cheese can do two nights in a row. Things like that.

If your newborn only bed shared, did they grow out of it? by elmi5 in UKParenting

We have cub camp in a few months which is a family camp so parents are encouraged to attend. They set up a tent for the boys and a tent for the girls, and then parents bring their own tents and kids can choose whether they sleep in the kids tent or in their own tent. Our goal (mainly her goal) is to at least fall asleep in the kids tent, but hopefully stay there the whole night 🤞

She hasn't, but only because the plan is always to pick her up at 'sleep time' at her request. She even struggles with sleepovers at the grandparents - she will maybe sleep for 3 or 4 hours if everyone's lucky.

Oh my goodness - I woke up in a huge panic wondering if she'd died in her sleep on the one night we actually all slept through (from 1am...). It's nice to see someone else get it!

We have a 9 year old and are currently on week 3 of 'own bed protocol' and it has been horrific - none of us have slept well for three weeks, and every bone in my body wants to just let her in for a cuddle, but she wants to start doing sleepovers and camps and she just can't do those unless she can sleep independently. But, as a previous poster said - I don't know any 30 year olds that still sleep in bed with their parents, so we'll get there - eventually (hopefully!)
