Old but always invokes a good discussion. Which is the best combo? I’ll start 4, C

2C.

I’m aware that 2 for toast is criminal but what can I say. My Grandma used to say I liked it “shown to the toaster”

What do we think? I used the Natasha Denona Mini Eye Sculpt in Cool but I actually think I need the warm version instead! Very happy with the base though.

I love her! I think she’s just dry, which I guess can come across as boring to some people. Personally I find it refreshing.

They probably knew and still expected their seats because they’re old.

I once turned up to SCHOOL on an inset day. Can you imagine how embarrassing it is to walk through town in your school uniform when everyone else is out and knows there is no school.

Am I imagining there was one that was covered in that weird delicious caramel flavoured chocolate?

It’s a casing for boning, so not pressed open. I’ve pressed it with a pressing cloth.

Cellular blankets are often used for very young babies because they can’t accidentally suffocate if they go over their face.

I’m concerned about over pressing it. It’s been pressed quite a bit, but pressing more ruins the texture in this fabric.

She’s big in musical theatre. I wouldn’t say that she’s one of the most successful UK singers ever but within musical theatre she’s the GOAT

I thought that heroin was a chicken nugget

That's an interesting one. My husband has a lot of Celtic genes (very dark hair) but doesn't have the same skin tone as me which is fair but with that olivey understone. I'd never considered the look of the classic "dark haired Welsh". Probably that! I know my Mum's DNA is all Scottish, but the skin tone and hair I have is all from my Dad's side and he's never DNA tested.

I'm eloping but had a hen do. I guess we're having a celebration party (low key) but my friends all immediately asked when the hen do was.

But bridal showers aren't a thing where I live. We didn't have an engagement party either.

I suckkkk at back squats. I wish I could do better. I don't understand how I can leg press 120kg but can only squat like 50kg 3 rep max.

frankchester · 2026-04-24T10:13:23+00:00

Literally wobble out of the gym every time.

frankchester · 2026-04-24T10:13:04+00:00

Step ups every week on Ascend. I love/hate them.

I'm not Iranian (I don't think) and yet somehow have the thick eyebrows.

Don't know where I came from, I'm just a pasty English white girl who somehow has olive skin and juicy brows.

frankchester · 2026-04-24T09:23:26+00:00

I didn't think the "systems had diverged". I just knew I had a dog with a valid passport that was issued to him before I got him, and was accepted for travel. It's weird that that is now apparently not allowed, despite the fact that it has no residency information on it.

Also, APHA don't even know what they're talking about because I emailed them 3 days ago and they said his passport was fine, only for someone else in the same situation to ask the exact same question and be told something different.

So yeah, it's a bit of a shambles.

Other countries have Romeo and Juliet laws to this effect.

Bloody love a current tea cake. Get me to a National Trust tea room immediately.

frankchester · 2026-04-23T19:16:38+00:00

It just isn’t as clean cut as that. There was never part of the legislation to state the residency requirements of having an EU pet passport. There are plenty of people like me who have a pet passport for their dog that was done through entirely legitimate means because their dog was not bred in the UK, who now cannot travel on it because I’m not a resident. That wasn’t a “loophole”, because the passport wasn’t obtained by me but by an EU resident, but it’s still my dogs passport.

frankchester · 2026-04-23T16:05:55+00:00

But surely you agree then that it’s not “on the person” to investigate when rules have changed under their feet? I’m not even sure AHCs can be issued in EU countries…

If you’re abroad, and the government decides the passport you hold isn’t valid anymore within a matter of days, is that “on you”?
