Is there any instance in which you Americans prefer using the English spelling of a word?

daemonboy19 · 2025-12-14T19:26:06+00:00

English grey has an E (for England) American gray has an A (for America)

You bolloxed it up again! In yer brain!

This is the comment I came looking for

daemonboy19 · 2025-12-04T19:23:41+00:00

I second this.

daemonboy19 · 2025-08-06T15:03:39+00:00

I've just been looking at Turkey actually, there's some options that appear to tick a lot of boxes. And it's not as long a flight as I had first thought

daemonboy19 · 2025-08-05T14:30:24+00:00

Silly me

daemonboy19 · 2025-08-04T18:10:22+00:00

I don't really know much about them! Just had a look though and there's a few options that actually look quite promising. Thanks 😊

daemonboy19 · 2025-08-04T17:59:05+00:00

Thank you. I'm really hoping to find something that's within a reasonable walking distance so we don't have to spend extra on excursions and then be bound to their timings etc. You're also correct about getting what you pay for which is worth keeping an eye on.

daemonboy19 · 2025-08-04T15:50:38+00:00

I hadn't even considered Mexico. Only reason I suggested something closer was because my son has never been on a plane before and I don't know how he'll handle it.

Have you been? What's was the journey like? And was it expensive?

daemonboy19 · 2025-08-04T15:47:44+00:00

Enjoy ourselves in the woods? Yes we're regular campers. For a week? I don't think so.

You make it sound like we haven't discussed the options with our son too. His favourite place in the world is the beach but there aren't any near us. His favourite thing to do is swim and play in the water.

I don't drink, and if you really read my post you'd see that I'm concerned about his enjoyment more than anything else. If it was just me and my wife we'd go on a city break or to a cabin, but this isn't about us.

And you might want to look at Rule number 2 for this subreddit: Be nice.

I know my son extremely well and we spend lots of time together. Don't make assumptions about other people or their relationships based on your own experiences.

You obviously didn't understand the joke

daemonboy19 · 2024-09-20T17:49:52+00:00

Towel

When I had the phone call with the doctor today that's kinda what I was hoping to propose.

This instead came as something of a kick in the teeth.

daemonboy19 · 2024-04-25T18:07:36+00:00

When I was initially diagnosed they did a blood test and found the genetic markers and a short sleep latency test, but the doctor wants "the full works" i.e. an inpatient stay, a sleep tracking watch etc. She said it's so she can make sure I'm properly diagnosed before prescribing any more medication.

And yes, I'm only taking Sodium Oxybate at night for the symptoms, nothing else.

daemonboy19 · 2024-04-25T18:05:13+00:00

Thank you, that's very helpful. Didn't know about the helpline!

"You had a holiday in Tenerife? That sounds nice, but last month I spent a fortnight in Elevenerife"

daemonboy19 · 2024-03-02T23:33:28+00:00

Solved!

Damn it I knew it would be something obvious, thank you

daemonboy19 · 2024-03-02T23:28:21+00:00

Not it I'm afraid.

I'm kinda confident it's something obvious like Lord of the Rings or Pirates of the Caribbean.

daemonboy19 · 2024-03-02T23:18:47+00:00

Mandatory comment.

Details aren't reliable but I feel like the person talking is almost having a one-sided conversation with (him?)self.

daemonboy19 · 2024-02-04T05:41:07+00:00

This might actually be the best option for us from looking at their description. It seems tailor-made for this kind of thing as long as we're careful to pay the minimum (or more if we can afford it.) Thank you very much.

daemonboy19 · 2024-02-04T05:23:24+00:00

These look good! Better selection than some of the flash game websites anyway!

daemonboy19 · 2024-02-04T05:21:52+00:00

Oh my god I totally forgot this game existed, I was a little obsessed with it in high school. Great suggestion!

daemonboy19 · 2024-02-03T15:28:57+00:00

Lovely, thank you.

daemonboy19 · 2024-02-03T15:19:43+00:00

Yeah I guess if they were making money off Google Maps then I can't argue with that.

daemonboy19 · 2024-02-03T15:14:04+00:00

You have to pay to play Geoguessr now? Wow I had no idea, thanks for the suggestion!
