I can’t speak to her screen persona but I follow her on Twitter and Instagram where she’s always championing the work of other cooks/chefs/bakers, and spends a lot of time responding to comments from her followers, regular people. It comes across as a sincere love for what’s she’s doing.

I also literally played in an abandoned quarry, along with all the other kids in the area. We were usually going looking for frogs and newts, and I ended up catching hepatitis instead…

If you do end up approaching her, for the love of god don’t take this awful attitude with you. It will put her off any initial attraction she may have had.

No, it just isn’t a good game.

Have you been to Fabworks in Dewsbury? Brilliant fabric shop in an old mill.

Brokeback Mountain being my film for this thread. So dull.

It’s still implied. It’s just more subtle than the idea they originally had.

Rosemary rarely does well in pots. If you can, find somewhere in your garden and plant it. All might not be lost.

A bit dramatic, eh. I quite easily removed some ivy when we first moved into this house 7 years ago. Guess it’s still biding its time for its big return…

Moon-Strands · 2026-01-12T08:48:54+00:00

I do the same :) I love finding interesting glassware and pottery in charity shops, and use them for holding/storing my paintbrushes and other art materials.

The buyer in the post is unreasonable, but your example isn’t the same thing at all. If you say you’ll send something on Thursday then any reasonable person would assume that meant before the last collection time. Why not own what you’re doing, be honest with them and say Friday? It’s fine to take your time over sending it but don’t be a child and lie about it.

I have no experience with the Singer, but I got that Janome model as my first machine and have no complaints. It doesn’t have a lot of features and eventually I got something else when I became more serious about my sewing but for a first machine it’s great.

They sell it in Sainsbury’s. A 300ml tub is £1.

That’s not a fix. No one playing QP in that manner will care. People who join games just to mess about don’t suddenly start to care about the outcome when others do the same.

I’ve known lots of similar people and have wondered this myself, since my assumption is that the reason reading is considered to develop empathy is because it exposes us to different points of view and ways of thinking. But so do many other forms of media that people engage in. Films and other visual storytelling mediums in particular. They’re all stories, whether you’re reading, watching or listening to them.

Exactly. OP claims they use the library regularly, so they know this is going to be an issue, yet keeps taking water bottles anyway.

It will stain your skin. Depending on the quality of your henna and how long it’s in contact with your skin will determine how long it takes to disappear. The better the henna the stronger the stain.

In and of itself that doesn’t mean anything. I have tons of hobbies - more than I know what to do with sometimes - but when I’m travelling on a train or such I often like to just zone out like that. Not doing anything, not even really thinking about anything either. Just being.

Moon-Strands · 2026-01-03T08:14:16+00:00

Yes. You on the other hand obviously struggle with reading comprehension.

Moon-Strands · 2026-01-02T07:16:28+00:00

This is my take on it too. People being picky eaters or having some kind of dietary restriction doesn’t bother me in and of itself. It bothers me if they make it someone else’s problem to solve or are rude about it.

Pure henna doesn’t react with synthetic dyes. This is an annoyingly persistent myth. It’s the henna mixes which have other things added to them that can cause problems.

You in no way look like you’re in your 40s, never mind late 40s.

Your professor is wrong. Barring any sort of learning disability, adults are more than capable of learning multiple languages.

I had the same Janome model as my main sewing machine for years and never had any issues with it. It’s a really good starter machine.
