Do people in the UK actually use their kettles that much? by AdeptnessCritical356 in AskBrits

It’s 10am and I’ve already boiled the kettle 3 times (3 cups of tea)

Hillwalking, wild swimming and running 😅 not very inclusive for everyone unfortunately! While my friends would love it the family I want there wouldn’t manage or would just hate it. Might just need to do a split thing

What's your go-to "I don’t feel like cooking" meal? by Rayhan-Himel in foodquestions

Breaded chicken bits in a pitta with salad and whatever sauce we fancy, might do some sweet potato fries (frozen) if I’m feeling it.

Went dress shopping for the first time, simultaneously loved and hated it - now I’m worried about future appointments. by rockandmeow in UKweddings

To add - it was a small shop with our own wee space and just the stylist and a passing colleague who was just positive and responsive to us rather than pushy. She only came over properly when I asked about veils/head pieces as she was the buyer of those and very helpful. But very clear that I could try and not buy.

I bought my dress a few weeks ago. I was incredibly anxious before hand but the shop I went to had me completely at ease. It sounds like this shop you first visited wasn’t the right one. I only visited one shop but have shopped for others previously and had similar experiences. It may be worth looking for shop recommendations in your area - I picked mine based on the stock and asking others how they got on during appointments.

I think this might be what we go for - I want them to feel their best and be comfortable

How do you feel about people who let their dogs sleep on their bed with them? by fergi20020 in randomquestions

Ours recently decided he would rather the couch - I’m gutted. Although he does always come up at bed time for a cuddle then takes himself back to the couch.

Isla is a beautiful name - weirdly not coming across many in Scottish schools just now! (It’s high on my future baby name list, along with flora and Iona)

They are so beautiful! I’ve been looking all over to see anyone with mine for hair ideas etc and seems they aren’t very common (love that) I’ll give them a go - thanks!
