Hi everyone.

Yay for completing yesterday's list, Ahimsa! Still rooting for you to get through today's too. Are you going to get a ring today for completing yesterday's list?

Hi, Tamo. How is your day going?

Sorry you had a bad sleep, Jen. I hope you continue to feel upbeat though. What have you been up to so far today?

Hi Dawn, are you not feeling well or is it a cold day where you are? I hope you're ok.

I think I am not too well Lindsay as it's warm where I live. I am currently sitting in bed trying to get warm. Apart from feeling very cold I feel ok in myself.

I hope you can warm up and the feeling passes soon. Look after yourself.

Thanks Lindsay. I am going to put an hoodie on see if that helps.

It's that weird time of year when it's nearly too warm in the sun but still too cold inside the house.

Hello everyone.

Hello nonperson how are you?

Not really done anything. Just trying to manage my pain and take it easy. Using my TENS machine etc.

Wearing of an hoodie worked. I feel much warmer now. I am wearing one that says "just a cat person" with a picture of a cat on it.

The service was really good thanks long road :)

Mum took me to Costa for breakfast this morning. While we were in town I had a look for comfy trousers but couldn't find what I was after.

RYL time is two hours behind... o.O

My ryl isn't...

Probably just me! It's possibly been wrong for ages and I never noticed. =)

Fixed it now!

Np!!!! Hello :). Just been to the car wash and thought of you actually.

Hah! One day, one day...

I have been to a manual car wash but not through one with the rollers. You are not alone NP!

I have never been to a manual car wash either...

What's a manual car wash?

Also I had my friend in the car with me and she had only been in one once and so she was very excited (and I had given her access to Percy Pigs which probably didn't help!) and we took a car wash selfie :P

When you pay for other people to hand wash your car, I think?

So a car wash can be a full-on, sugar-fuelled, fun day out and not just a chore? o.O

When we were little, going through the car wash was a treat!

I meant the one where you buy a token to use a jet wash and a soapy brush on your own car. My parents used to go to one as they didn't have a hosepipe and there weren't any of the machine ones near us. But it would also apply to you payin someone who was working at the car wash, yeah

On this topic I once saw an automatic dog washing machine at a petrol station. Thankfully I didn't see a dog in it.

Ostensibly so! The friend is the kind of friend where we make everything into an adventure.

:crazy:
Not exactly the same but we did also go to pets at home on our adventure and saw a self-service dog washing thing? I think it was just like a giant bath with hoses and stuff, which I guess is a good idea!

Also thank you for the car wash info! Washing it myself sounds like too much effort and my mum has too many conspiracy theories about the ones where you pay an employee :P

Afternoon all.

I need to wash my bicycle. It's due its annual service. I feel embarressed if it's too filthy…. I Think it's black underneath the dirt….

Jenna: Making car wash selfies a thing!

Nice to see you here, NP.

What else is there to do while you're trapped inside your car, I guess.

Howdy Lindsay.

I'm watching a Power Rangers film from 2017. It has somehow managed to make Power Rangers even more uncool.

Don't think I ever watched power rangers! Do you like Attenborough-type stuff np? I'm getting wildlife-show vibes...

Lindsay, how are you?

Zurg, I hope you get your bike washed! My car was very overdue a wash and still needs hoovering inside but I decided there were too many people and too much shopping in to do it today. And you know, I couldn't be bothered like every other time I haven't done it :P

I had a red power ranger. Well, it was probably my brother's that I stole from him.

I'm surviving.

A simple "I can't be bothered" is all that is needed there, Jenna. No need to explain further. Just skip all the things you can't be bothered to do!

Power Rangers was a big part of my childhood television. I feel like I should be more into Attenborough stuff than I am =( Is that what you're watching?

Alas, I have to go back to work for a bit and then do a food shop to get me through the next few day... Meh. =(

You can do it, NP. Hope it passes quickly and you can get back home.

Thanks Lindsay. I'm hoping I've not left it too late to buy hot cross buns!

Buy ALL the noms, NP!!! :D

Why does everyone like hot cross buns? They have little wrinkly fruit in them.

Yeah, just started a new series - A Perfect Planet. Needed to seek emotional support about all the animals that got eaten :P

Good luck at work and shopping - we shall be waiting eagerly to hear news of your hot cross buns!

Fruit is supposed to be wrinkly and baked into buns, Lindsay!!! Just as God intended!!!

Well I'd rather have the buns with no wrinkly fruit. Have you tried any of the less traditional hot cross buns with different flavours? I think there's a caramel one I had ages ago that I liked.

Now that's just getting silly! Flavoured hot cross buns?? Whatever next!!

If Lio was on LFV now she'd swoop in and list some of my dreadful food choices so maybe don't take my disapproval too seriously :P

Hot cross buns for the win! I sent my partner out specifically for hot cross buns yesterday.

That 2017 power rangers film is questionable for sure np

I had a chocolate hot cross bun.

I prefer traditional hot cross buns but am accepting if other sweet flavours e.g. chocolate, apple, caramel. I draw the line at cheese hot cross buns! The are not supposed to be savoury!!!

I agree, they should be sweet.

I'd probably try a cheese hot cross bun because... well... cheese <3

Also I like chocolate hot cross buns too tamo. M&S did some particularly epic ones a while ago. Not sure if they still do.



Well. There certainly is news. I was stood there looking at the nearly empty shelves and pondering the rather small and kind of unappetising looking hot cross buns and then I saw a mini hot cross bun loaf! So that will be my breakfast for the next few days.

Edit: also I think that might be the record for the number of times hot cross buns have been mentioned in one post.

I LOVE hot cross buns!

I went to York and I got my ring!!! :) I also got some Christmas presents (I'm trying to do as much as I can from charity shops, so every time I spot something someone would like I get it and put it in the loft in the bag of Christmas presents, with a post it on with their name on.


Accountability check:
1) Sort the pile of letters on the desk
2) Take the glass jars and bottles to the recycling DONE
3) Buy a new kitchen bin (They didnt have the size I want, this is not my fault!)
4) Dust the shelf unit
5) Clear out the fridge
6) Do the next load of washing
7) Go through 1 drawer and organise it
8) Drop the spare car key at my parents DONE
9) Organise the cupboard under the sink
10) Organise the tea cupboard

Ooh hot cross bun loaf sounds perfect for toasting!

My thoughts exactly! I'm almost excited to wake up tomorrow... lol.

Good job, Ahimsa! Achieving things on your to-do list and Christmas presents in April is a level of organisation that I greatly admire.

Good find np.

Well done on the list Ahimsa.

What are people's thoughts on having a similar thread to this on a support board, where more serious chit chat could be had? Pi, that was something you said was possible?

I think it would be helpful!
