Urgh to football.

I'm only interested when Norwich are playing and even then I don't care for watching the actual game. Just the scores.
Unless I physically go to a game because the atmosphere is amazing

I don't think I've ever been to a football match.

I am not interested in football and I don't have access to sky sports anyway.

It's lots of fun tamo!

If you say so Cacoethes..

Hehehe

What are you doing this evening?

Going to bed now!
I am unusually tired.

Goodnight everyone. Sleep well :)

I'm off to bed now too. Sweet dreams!

Morning everyone. You should think about getting a spare pair of glasses (with your current prescription). I have a spare pair but I've never used it and I hope I won't have to.

That would have been the sensible thing to do lindsay!
I have some sunglasses but that's not going to help with the current weather!

I am thinking of getting a new iPhone 8 Plus shortly

Samsung ftw!!! :p

Afternoon all.

My dad likes his Samsung phones too.

I just keep getting iPhones because I know how they work.

Hey Lindsay. =)

Yeah I was very frustrated when I switched to Android for the first time! Even now I still try to do things the iPhone way.

I keep thinking about changing back to an iphone again.

Don't do it np! Iphones suck!
But that may be because I don't know how they work :p
I have an ipod and ipad and am happy with those.
So idek why I'm so against iphones.

Currently sat in the opticians.
They said they can either try to bend them back into shape which has a high chance of breaking them or pop the lenses into new frames. I've said try bending them (it's cheaper) and if they break then I'll go for the new frames option.

They work the same as an ipad just a bit smaller. =P

I hope the bending works! Definitely worth a try with that first.

I'm still suspicious :p

Yes worth a go. She's been at it for a while now and I haven't heard any snapping yet. She's using some sort of machine because I can hear it. She's not doing it near me.

Do they warm the frames up first before bending?

Yeah, I think that's what they do. But I've never seen such a wonky frame needed fixed!

They fixed them! It's a miracle!
I can see properly again!

Woohoo =D

It really is a miracle. They were very wonky!
Lindsay has seen the photo!

Now I have all my errands done I can fill up my hot water bottles and relax!

What are you up to this afternoon np?

Hooray for relaxing time. =)

Have you acquired more hot water bottles?

I'm up to nothing. I'm not at work though so that's good. Kinda just want to sleep but I should go food shopping and get it out of the way... and so that I actually have something to eat for dinner.

Hi everyone

I have 2 hot water bottles now!

You should go food shopping np. I always say it's best to get it over and done with. Especially as you still have time to get there before the after work rush!

I've just applied for student finance to restart my open University degree. So I'm hoping it all goes through ok..

Hi tamo

Hey Tamo. How're you?

Ooh that's exciting, Beckie. How quick will you get to know how the application goes?

I know I should go shopping. The thing on google that says how busy it is says "not too busy" right now. Just so much effort and stress... =/ I think I need a full face mask just in case there are tears, lol.

They said it could take up to 6 weeks but I hope it doesn't take that long!

I know, shopping can be super stressful but it's like a plaster, you just have to rip it off all at once and it doesn't hurt as much!

My Harry Potter tour has been cancelled :(

Oh no :(
So sorry tamo. I know how much you were looking forward to that

I've been preparing myself for it being cancelled but it's still very disappointing.

I can imagine

How was your day? I'm glad your glasses are fixed.

I was fairly busy today and been out in the cold for most of it!
The weather is horrible today.
I've just had some lovely warming lentil soup though.
I think they've changed the recipe because it tastes different
My life is so thrilling

Ooo i love lentil soup! We're having lentil curry.

Me too! A lentil curry sounds nice. Only if it's not spicy though! I can't deal with spicy at all!

Me neither, my dad has instructions not to use anything spicey.

Ah that's good!
In that case it sounds lovely!

And now I'm drinking pretend champagne!

Oooo nice!

Longest shopping trip ever. o.o

Why so long np?

Two lots of roadworks plus early friday rush hour traffic so it took half an hour to get there, then somehow spent an hour in the shop, then had to get petrol too and then another nearly 30 minutes on the way back. o.o


Also Tamo I'm so sorry your tour got cancelled. =( That place is so amazing. Can you re-book?

Oh wow!
I was wondering why you weren't about!
Well done for surviving that

It surprisingly wasn't too stressful despite all of that. And the lady at the till actually ID'd me and called me pretty which made it all worthwhile, haha.

Awww that DOES make it worthwhile!
I never get IDd anymore. Woe.

I haven't been ID'd in years. I guess it's because of wearing a mask, maybe my eyes didn't look as old as usual today.

I havent got ided in the past 3 years but apparently I look 10 years younger than I am. I was ided buying an lottery ticket in my 30s! No way I look under 16.
