scottsdad Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 I had an Antony Worrall Thomson knife set as a wedding gift. Fantastic. Over the years though many socks went missing. Coincidence? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Is anyone else noticing paracetamol tablets are harder to get out of the wrapper they are in? I used to be able to just push the pill up through the foil/plastic and the pill would be in one piece but recently it’s as if the wrapper is stronger or the pills are softer and they break when piercing through. I have resorted to piercing the wrapper with a knife so I’m not consuming a powdery broken pill. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously unacceptable and an affront to national dignity. Something must be done! Clearly not enough billions spent yet. Time to find the magic money tree for London.

I've never liked Disney but I assume most people grew out of that stage around adolescenes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 'Come Dine With Me' I decided to have some impromptu pre-pub drinks at mine with a handful of friends (who's flights were cancelled) tonight, just needing "a couple of 6 packs and a selection of crisps". Instead my other half has decided this has to mean enough fancy food and drinks to supply the entire crew of a North Sea platform. That programme has a lot to answer for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
