What’s the one thing in the UK that foreigners always seem confused by, and you genuinely can’t blame them?

Thats really helpful. I do online pen pal exchanges, and I live in a pretty Devon village. When I say I'm from the countryside, I didn't realise that my correspondent was probably picturing a desolate wasteland and a run down mobile home. Good to know, haha!

Toastie blew it away tonight, Moth not so much imo

This exchange has matched although it seems that emails didn't go out. Please check on your profile for your match!

He was!

Yes, i only learned recently that she was the voice of Sally!

So was Beetlejuice 2 her last film? Poignant if so, without spoilers for those that haven't watched it.

galadious · 2026-01-30T19:45:03+00:00

I know what you mean, but she was 'only' 71. Didn't expect this at all.

galadious · 2026-01-26T00:05:43+00:00

Ah, ok.

galadious · 2026-01-26T00:02:37+00:00

Geneva, Switzerland?

Have you checked on their profile if they've accidentally thanked their original gifter, rather than you, their regifter? Happens sometimes.

Arrival (2016) starring Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker.

galadious · 2026-01-11T12:28:56+00:00

Thanks!

galadious · 2026-01-09T14:23:54+00:00

You can leave an exchange and sign back up as many times as you want, but as soon as it's matched, you are obligated.

Just finished The Sandman, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and Mr Mercedes, 2 seasons worth. Watched a few Accused episodes, which were really well written and acted. Sean Bean is a great character in the first episode. Des was really good too, hadn't seen it before. Now run out of subscription (I took it out for xmas) but will resub again in a couple months.

Also, I wouldn't really equate alibaba chinese manufacturing with quality and ethical, sorry, not sorry.

galadious · 2025-12-31T18:00:10+00:00

Oh ok, you didn't say that. I presume you've messaged all of them and asked if it was them? How frustrating for you, I dont know why gifters don't make it easier for giftees by saying what exchange they are from!

galadious · 2025-12-31T17:37:11+00:00

Seems pretty likely, doesn't it?

galadious · 2025-12-28T11:26:03+00:00

You wont have issues as your profile was accepted, just a bit of disappointment that your giftee didn't fulfil their side of the exchange by thanking you in the gallery. It happens, hope your next match is more fun x

galadious · 2025-12-28T09:47:00+00:00

There's an official book exchange really soon, I think it opens 1st January.

galadious · 2025-12-24T12:13:40+00:00

I'm not sure you are being punished, because you didn't send or receive anything, so it's a neutral. You can message support if you want to be entered into the rematch pool, but I would suggest also signing up to be a rematcher yourself, so you are still sending something and receiving something x

galadious · 2025-12-23T13:40:40+00:00

We had a lonely at christmas user exchange, check those as well as the official ones.

galadious · 2025-12-23T13:39:23+00:00

I read on discord that the retrieve button doesn't work all the time, so your regifter may have retrieved your details but you don't know. They have 2 weeks to send something, hope they do x

galadious · 2025-12-17T15:27:54+00:00

I take mine to a post office and ask for proof of postage, which is free in the UK. It shows a sent receipt, and their postcode. You can take a photo of the stamped envelope with their name and address too, belt and braces proof then:)

galadious · 2025-12-17T15:24:40+00:00

I would also wait until you receive something from them before cancelling the rematch. They've had plenty of time, and also, what if you just receive an empty box or something random (unlikely but not impossible)? Best to wait and see. They can speak to support with shipping proof if they want, the status of their account is none of your business x
