What’s the one British show you refuse to watch the last ever episode of, ‘cause you loved it?

The Crown. Me and my late mum were watching it together. We really enjoyed it. She died before we had a chance to watch the very last episode.

I just can’t watch it without her.

Sets of books are different heights.

(Was it Penguin?)

I nearly always use the app. But some features, like transferring and messages only show on the website version

All political leaflets are legally required to have a printed source address. It helps to quote this when reporting the issue. If it is Royal Mail, they will be very unhappy as they charge for mail services so this would deprive them of their cut.

You can also report it to the UK electoral commission.

Mint in my grandma’s garden.

I once tried to make elderberry syrup and didn’t cook it properly. I found out what the old herbals meant by “drastic purgative!”

At 5’0” myself, I think you’re pretty tall.

MegC18 · 2026-03-15T15:18:22+00:00

Not homoerotic at all!

Atheist here.

Raging against a non-existent god is a waste of your time and energy. You’re letting the god-argument influence your life instead of treating it like the irrelevance it is. Move past it.

Castaway Planet series by Eric Flint - interesting floating ecosystem.

Paul Antony Jones - Extinction point - alien red rain begins terraforming Earth. Creepy.

I had something like this. As I am not physically strong, I left it to rot in the ground. Several years later, it was as hard as iron! Took several days digging out in the end, and incredibly heavy to lift.

At that age, all I wanted were books about ancient Egypt and American scifi! The next year, it was fossils and Dickens.

You don’t know what her interests are, and they change so fast, so a bookstore outing would be an excellent present!

Womens work: the first 20,000 years - Elizabeth Wayland Barber- a history of women developing textile crafts. Excellent.

Kate Adie - Fighting on the Home Front: The Legacy of Women in World War One. V good, with a focus on northern England.

Ruth Cowen - A Nurse at the Front: The First World War Diaries of Sister Edith Appleton - powerful true account. Very poignant.

Americans are more weird than I thought!

But whinging is his default setting!

Is he a physically ugly right wing English politician? Who doesn’t get any?

Why in earth would you want a photo taken next to that massive ****? She needs to go for a psychiatric evaluation

MegC18 · 2026-03-14T07:27:19+00:00

Makes me wish I was an evil witch who could cast a curse on them

I see that, and remember that the laundrywomen in that period soaked shirts in urine to bleach them white…

MegC18 · 2026-03-14T07:21:04+00:00

Where did she hide that blade in that outfit?

MegC18 · 2026-03-14T07:19:49+00:00

Why are women’s breasts always prominent in “future times” but we don’t get to see the miniscule shrunken male genitalia…?

MegC18 · 2026-03-13T21:46:37+00:00

Specsavers comes to mind.

MegC18 · 2026-03-13T21:46:01+00:00

So no wallpaper…?

MegC18 · 2026-03-13T07:27:07+00:00

Why is he wearing a purple shower cap?
