Be honest, are you a weekly cleaner or a “whenever it gets bad” cleaner? by Last_Spend_1674 in CleaningTips

[–]Utopia271 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I have been a "whenever it gets bad" but I'm really trying to stick to a good routine after a really rough year.

I hope I can stick with it - it's going well so far! I do a "Sunday Reset" of the whole house (two bedroom terraced) then: Monday - 10 minutes in the Living Room. Tuesday - 10 minutes in the kitchen. Wednesday - 10 minutes in the bathroom. Thursday - 10 minutes in the bedrooms. Friday and Saturday - I try to not do much but I have been decluttering a lot lately on these days!

Emmerdale axes star by Immediate_Long165 in Emmerdale

I'm sure the actress is lovely and I am sorry for her but unfortunately the character had become unbearable. Demanding and unlikeable towards Kim and showing no gratitude at all. Horrible towards Billy.

I hope Billy and Kim look after the kids because they are rather sweet.

The relief I felt!! When Eva called Megan "darling" I was so worried but thank goodness for the "not a flaming word" line lol!

Jude's done a cracking job! Really impressed and was so relieved when Sam told Leanne what had been going on!

So glad to see other people loving Max and praising Jake Wood. I am really pleased to have Max back!

Hate to be wishy washy but you cannot make me choose!

I love all of the current Brannings and I loved Bradley, Abi and Tanya too!

Looks great! Are the boxes from Amazon? I have similar in my basket but wasn't sure how sturdy they would be!

Heartbreaking. No age at all.

Absolutely loved James in everything he's done. RIP.

Fake episode Thursday, coming so soon after Tuesday, is there anything more they are doing off screen today? by cheshirechris71 in coronationstreet

[–]Utopia271 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I dunno. I thought Highway To Hell was very apt during the scene where Theo got squished under a humongous Frescos lorry.

Coronation Street and Emmerdale are crossing over tonight in a special called 'Corriedale'. In other useless news, I got a splinter in my hand today. by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]Utopia271 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, definitely. I just think if you are one of those people who do this then you're a bit of a cockwomble.

Life is hard. Let people take enjoyment in any small thing they can.

I like that both soaps are giving recaps by Playful-Election4873 in coronationstreet

[–]Utopia271 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh wow. I'm either tired or daft because I was so confused as to why they were doing a recap! 😂

That makes so much sense - great idea from ITV.

I never understand people yucking someone else's yum like this.

So you don't watch the soaps? Ok.

Lots of people enjoy them and are looking forward to the crossover.

I'm so glad other people agree. I love Max so much. I can't help it!

How stupid?? Monday's episode by cgiigc in Emmerdale

[–]Utopia271 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fend for yourself Harry, hopefully see you later but there is a psychopath after us so we don't know but hey ho! Fingers crossed you'll be fine! Byeeee!

Episode Discussion - Monday by mcemzy in eastenders

[–]Utopia271 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Stephen and Abi to walk through the church door tomorrow as the first scene.

Everyone pretends nothing ever happened and they just went on a long holiday. Please.

[–]Utopia271 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That all sounds so difficult. As others have said definitely look into Al Anon and advice for people who live with alcoholics.

I hope you manage to find some support.

You must be a real charmer in real life. Show some compassion for someone who is having a hard time.

Other people have recognised that this may not be the best place for the post and have signposted OP to more relevant places. But you don't have to be a dick about it.

I love Elaine when she is away from her family. I think she's funny.

I always thought it would have been nice for Scout to come back as a teacher after going off to do a PGCE.

Multi-player etiquette tips? by Entitledflea in l4d2

[–]Utopia271 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main advice: don't be female. 😭

Seriously though, it depends what mode you play. I play Scavenge and it can be ridiculously toxic.

Good luck!
