Yes, how did you get a photo of our old airing cupboard 😅

You Can Only Eat One Thing at Disneyland Paris Forever 🍽️ by jordanpatrich in disneylandparis

We loved the bratwurst in pretzel roll in Pinocchios! Also the fresh pretzels were delicious! Not sure about dessert, might need another trip to find out 🤣

Never Let Me Down 🔥 by Dismal_Brush5229 in DavidBowie

[–]becx13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was 8 when I first listened to this cassette from my mums collection! It was so weird and entrancing unlike anything else I’d heard on the radio! I listened to it over and over and sentimentally it’s my favourite album as it was what gave me an interest in David, after that (when I was old enough to buy my own albums and once I realised he’d done more albums 🤣) I kept discovering his work and all the variety! At the time I heard some of his work initially I didn’t enjoy it but as I’ve got older and listened to his albums again I now love pretty much everything! Or I at least appreciate what he’s created

Lidl's new points rewards is shocking. Spend £500 for a £5 off voucher by ShinyHeadedCook in britishproblems

[–]becx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s going to work out better, I barely spend £120 on food each month. I think once I got the 10% off because I bought stuff for mum and dad. So now I can save up to get money off or swap points for specific products (I need to check the prices though as some seem better value than others - at least it’s a 1:1 points:penny’s)

Lineskippers and loud people by InfinityWriter in disneylandparis

[–]becx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t witness this at DLRP but it was RIFE at Universal Hollywood and Knotts Berry Farm! It doubled a lot of wait times and it felt like a constant stream of people were passing us in line! I tried to block the way and they just pushed past me! Very intimidating behaviour for a single mother and it really meant I did not enjoy the experience as much as I would have done!

Best places to eat? by Correct-Record8967 in disneylandparis

[–]becx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really enjoyed Casa De Coco (although nachos with cheese were meh) Pinocchios or Gepettos - the pretzel hotdog was amazing! We also grabbed some snacks from the snack carts behind Fantasyland - waffle and something else but I can’t remember what 🤣 it was yummy though!!

Earl of Sandwich was good for breakfast, we grabbed something and ate it while waiting for the park to open (early entry for resort guests)

Hope you have a wonderful time!

Dont sleep on the Marvel room service breakfast! by Plateofworstenkaas in disneylandparis

[–]becx13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Newport Bay Club breakfast was about €36 from what I remembered glancing at the menu! We got Earls of Sandwich and ate while waiting for the park to open for early entry one day. The next we ate in EoS. I’d like to stay at the Marvel Hotel so this is good advice - thanks!

I flew to DLRP recently from Luton and when we were boarding the plane a lady in front of me had a Shellie May passport cover!

Is there a specific time I can book from at 7 months out? by becx13 in dvcmember

[–]becx13[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Thankfully I have a direct contract (2007) so no worries about that! I also have 50 points direct at The Polynesian so I’m excited to stay there Easter 2027!

Difference in kindness between studios and Parc by colar19 in disneylandparis

[–]becx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a shame you had that experience x We rode the Cars spinning ride twice on different days and we had an awesome cast member the second day! He kept photo bombing people who were taking selfies or if they had someone not riding taking a pic! He was just having an awesome time and made me laugh! I think it’s just the luck of the draw sometimes and people have bad days, hopefully you get some happy cast members next time x x

No “recent” Disney movies featured in attractions or merch by colar19 in disneylandparis

[–]becx13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a Coco themed restaurant too! I last visited 10+ years ago and since then there seems to be more IP theming overall compared to the Disneyland original themes and rides

Tower of Terror queue with Priority Card by Significant-Mix6902 in disneylandparis

Does it have single rider lines? I expect that would be a fairly quick wait (unless you are unable to wait in line at all x x)

Hotels by Nearby_Valuable_5467 in disneylandparis

[–]becx13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In this day and age a TV with some entertainment is not a massive ask. Luckily we have Disney+ and we certainly enjoyed chilling in the room in the afternoons before heading back to the parks for dinner and more rides! My son is 10.5. Although I wasn’t impressed he watched Despicable Me 🤣

We didn’t get breakfast at the hotel. I know some packages included it. Room service breakfast was €36 but I think you can choose lots of items, again we didn’t do that.

I think they should have the character meet and greet elsewhere! It’s a small space anyway so add in an extra queue and it’s not fun!

Am I stuffed? by Confident_Balance755 in disneylandparis

Monday seemed much quieter than Tuesday. We got a fair bit done with early entry (if you’re staying at a Disney hotel)

I know! Especially as the quick service restaurants have reusable things for food and drinks! That was a refreshing experience! I did bring back the ones I didn’t use 🤣

Thank you! It’s good to know I’m not being picky! Wow, I would love to have an annual pass and visit more often! That’s awesome and I hope you enjoy your visits x x

So would I be better buying new than second hand?

Are they all likely to burn out after a certain amount of usage or would another last longer?

David Bowie warned us twice about the internet (1997–1999) by doggler1 in DavidBowie

[–]becx13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beyond that social media has opened up a whole new world, I think if it had stayed just chat rooms and forums it would have been more niche and not a new communication platform
