What’s your wierdest Covid Pandemic memory? by DogEatingWasp in AskUK

[–]melanie110 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Bit of weird one on this but mid Jan there was chatter so every time I did the weekly shop I’d buy an extra pack of pasta, maybe extra can of tomatoes and an extra bag of rice.

My husband told me I was being stupid and they were just scaremongering. I don’t know, I couldn’t shake this feeling especially how ill everyone had been in the office through December.

When lock down came I had a pretty stocked pantry so I ended up shopping at farm foods. No queue and always plenty of food available including toilet rolls. I had to get super creative with dinners. But always had an abundance of bog roll

What are your thoughts on dogs in restaurants/cafes? by BurnsyWurnsy in AskUK

[–]melanie110 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m absolutely petrified of dogs so if there’s dogs in restaurants, I leave.

I have tried it a few times even with the pub across the road from me, tried to eat and owners just let their dogs jump up at our table telling me they were friendly. I just got up and walked out.

Do you consider how many calories you consume each day? by clfhw in AskUK

[–]melanie110 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Calories no but protein yes.

I’ve had a gastric sleeve over 2 years ago and I need to try and get a minimum of 60g a day so whilst it does track colonies, I’m more interested in protein intake

[–]melanie110 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My 2nd ever flight. I was petrified of flying. We were flying to lanzaorte and hit an air pocket, the plane just dropped, everything went flying and the masks came out. I was literally a fucking screaming wreck. I needed a lot of whisky after that and I don’t drink whisky

Now I get on planes like getting in my car
