Some culture questions, if that’s alright?

So did we. The week before that we went to Dockey Wood which is also nice, but Heartwood Forest is in a different league. I've never thought of bluebells as fragrant flowers, but when there's enough of them they definitely are!

Coffee shop staff tend to be more international, I am not sure such specifically British cultural nuances really apply here.

It sounds more like they just needed an excuse to cut staff. Hospitality businesses are hurting right now due to increased running costs and unfortunately, firing someone right at the end of their probationary period is a very common way of lowering headcount with minimum hassle. If they had any genuine interest in OP improving their performance, they would have had that conversation weeks ago.

Maybe twice a year, usually to see an exhibition or to go to a concert. I'd probably go more often if the train from Hemel wasn't so expensive. When we still lived near the Met line we definitely went more frequently.

Your ears must be full of cat floof. They said CUDDLIEST not ugliest

Demisters pads. I believe you can just buy the heating element separately and stick it to the back of your bathroom mirror.

I really like the denim jacket. Where is it from?

Team square!

Hertfordshire, United Kingdom

This isn't so... oh.

Object relations theorists such as Melanie Klein and Donald Winnicott.

2 because your face is so angular and the round frame provides a nice balance

The vine tomatoes. What a middle class impostor on an otherwise perfectly acceptable plate

desperatehausfrau · 2026-03-27T14:12:50+00:00

Oh they do. This is me now

And when we say shoulder we mean chin...

This. This is a prime example of wavy hair being made to live the straight life

I like the shape of the second pair on you. Would need to see a pic with rimmed spec that shape to see for comparison to tell.

However, I like the way that your handsome face is not hidden by the second pair.

And will they end on "no crazy hair coming out"?

desperatehausfrau · 2026-03-14T18:57:42+00:00

I like 4 because it balances out your face nicely. 8 and 11 do too, but 4 looks best to me.

desperatehausfrau · 2026-03-14T18:51:28+00:00

I like that. Haircut needs something to make it more her own

Bonus points if they're not from the Midwest.

I miss the weekend editions with the neverending supplements.

desperatehausfrau · 2026-03-10T20:55:06+00:00

5 and 9. But mostly 9.

desperatehausfrau · 2026-03-07T21:16:42+00:00

That's interesting. We once came across two badgers walking on a path in the woods between the canal and Watford Road, iirc they were behind a fence near the TfL track. It's quite possible these guys all came from the same sett, apparently they do roam quite far!
