What a lovely thing to say. Bet he was a good husband too.

Can I upvote this twice?

Awwwww. Too cute.

He's a therapy human for the dog.

This is how it should be.

That’s what really gave me the poos when my kids’ school started awarding points for every kid in “full school uniform” - with the winning class getting iceblocks at the end of the term. So, if I screw up with the laundry, or can’t get to the shops to buy new socks that week or if don’t want to fork out for a new pair of pants in literally the last 2 weeks of school, my kids’ class are disadvantaged? No - not fair. Not fair at all.

Or when scrolling to the right year takes three times as long as if they'd just let you type your date of birth. Or worst of all, when it asks you your occupation from a huge drop down list and you have to keep guessing what they think your job should be called.

The girl before you was the epitome of chutzpah.

The love we all should aim for

Be thankful for what you've got. My dachshunds nick my duvet. I'm left with a small strip some nights.

for some reason my mattress keeps slowly falling of the end of my bed so that the end is floppy

Get out of bed, go to the foot of the bed, grab the duvet & cover, shake it furiously, then get back into your nice warm bed OR turn the duvet foot to head ?

I gave up on the duvet cover and cut it in half. It's now serving as dust covers on a metal lathe and a milling machine. They do report that it's really cozy.

8 ties inside of the king duvet and it still slips off. Also takes a full WWF match to get it on.

Uh ... no? The never slip and just stay in place. Cotton cover and cotton duvet (filled with foamy thingies). So maybe a question of material? Cotton might be rough enougv?

Yes. It's infuriating.

This. I'm used to blankets. Traveled from US to Ireland. I was absolutely IRATE at those flipping duvets.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/YoloCra-Duvet-Cover-Clips My new favourite things,

It’s really annoying.

I stupidly bought a shiny cover. It would slip entirely off the bed.

I cannot stand duvet covers. So sloppy

There are clips for that.

mine has ties on the corners!

This just reminded me of the absolute reason why I do not have a "Duvet". A bedspread/comforter is perfect and you don't have to worry about the cover!!!!!

I feel validated. Its a horrible duvet situation

this would make a lot more sense if i knew what a duvet was lol

So much...

Can you just safety pin them together in the corners. Or better yet, sew?

So much. And I can't just pull the duvet out because the opening is microscopic and I am def not going through that again.

I bought special pins to stop this from happening. Life-changing.

My previous landlord once lowered my rent by 20% when he found out that I had bern laid off.

So where on earth did all of that water go??

I wasn't the only one then. Good. I was thinking, 'Why would you just drop your food on the bed like that??'

that is a global annoyance, not just a british issue

And I hear the föök-ing in my head so clearly 😂

Great name Roisin. I understand it’s pronounced ‘Rowsheen’ - beautiful

Both!

This’ll date me, but I genuinely remember when I first had my licence and being a poor student and putting totals like AUD $1.80 or $2.67 into my tank and using the car for another day.

Minutes 60 down to 3 count perfectly, Minutes 2 & 1 each take about a quarter of an hour.

No British person says "apartment", it's a "flat" this side of the pond

Hahahhaa... so relatable ;)

I felt that deep in my soul.

Friends of ours named their dog Steve and I’m like I don’t know how to feel about that. My names Steve.

Well I'm an idiot. For a second, I thought he was hitting on her.

Did you at least get the weights for the Bubble level???

Every street needs a binfluencer.

Look, these are from Britain. During our summers, you are more likely to get trench foot than sunburn. Summer wear is a clear plastic poncho. When a large, white, fiery ball appears in the sky, it has to be announced on the news that it is, in fact, the sun.
