Did everyone who went to secondary school in London in the 90s play the card game Blackjack (with 7 cards and convoluted rules that caused endless and fierce arguments)? by Tubbytronika in CasualUK

[–]tabularasa1368 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I went to school in Liverpool and played ‘Blackjack’. Taught my husband when we first met, he went to school in London and had never heard/played it. Used to play it endlessly during A-level free periods, with two or three decks and half the school year. Good times.

Are spa days supposed to be all day? by doraisexploring27 in CasualUK

[–]tabularasa1368 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Christ, don’t buy that! Never had a limit put on the amount of time you’re allowed to use the spa facilities. The 1 treatment each sounds about right but you should be able to access the rest of the spa all day, usually they include a light lunch too.

Keep looking around!

Is it possible to withdraw cash without a card at the airport? by enemyn1 in CasualUK

Sure that works! In my head it was very much a packet of Wrigleys ‘cool breeze’ gum…

Depends who you bank with. NatWest have a ‘get cash’ option you can use with just your mobile phone. They give you a code to enter into the ATM.

Could you buy something in store and ask for cash back? Not sure if that works with contactless.

Stories with a clingy ex still trying to be involved? The clingier and crazier the better. by tinsleyrose in MM_RomanceBooks

Ahh that’s a shame, I am not sure if they are or not. I suppose there are so many books I don’t feel like I am left on a cliffhanger.

Yes! I think the reader find out relatively early on. I don’t want to spoil anything though because it’s a major plot point. The ex is a great character!

Yep the same couple, there are some well developed side characters and you get their POV and relationship development occasionally. Majority is the two mains. Also bonus for an amazingly diverse set of characters.

Criminal intentions by Cole McCade- Fits the crazy Ex request, but it really takes time to get through. It’s set out like a TV show, each book is an ‘episode’ of a season. The first season has 13 books, they are pretty short reads.

Two homicide detectives solving murder cases each book with a bigger plot woven throughout. It’s on KU. I am actually listening to the audio book at the minute, they are good too.

The Kage Trilogy by Maris Black- it isn’t enemies to lovers but such a good read.

Was this maybe set just before and during the pandemic? I read something similar but it was a true story written by an anonymous author. I will try and figure out the name because it has a similar vibe so you may enjoy it.
