That's what I thought! No couches or Wifi at my local Primarni. Just a LOT of people and things on the floor.

the more expensive brands like Jones the bootmaker and Clarkes sell half sizes. But yeah, I get what you mean. Im a half size, so I normally end up buying the size below and stretching the shoe out or a size up and wearing thick socks.

Have you tried Dorothy Perkins? I am 31 and have the same problem. I tend to live in skater dresses/tights/boots or skinnies/floaty vest and a cardigan if its colder and they always have some nice stuff at a good price point. Not bought anything from Topshop in YEARS.

Charging ports and free wifi!? HA! Not in my Primark (Manchester) try swarms of idiots, clothes never in the right sizes (always check the label, don’t go off the hanger, as they don't always have the right size on them) and not a natural fabric in sight. Still, its ok for basics (£2 for a tank top) and underwear.

It is totally justifiable! I cried once when grandhiwizard spent hours making a roast lamb dinner, then we sat down and the lamb was inedible, it was so chewy and fatty and gross. Just flat out burst out crying, told him I will never eat lamb again and ate a mound of potatoes. Not even pregnant.

I agree! Having separate interests is SO GOOD. What do couples talk about if they do every damn thing together and have no separate interests? That’s what amazes me. Obviously, do stuff together, but it is good to have your own identity and not be known as “so-and-so's fiancé”

I second that emotion. Pasty English girls unite!

I've never been told my turtle was tight before, but I'll take it. We tend to just say things like "Jolly Good" here in old England ha

Thanks! :) took me all day, and two crappy cakes before I managed it haha

This sounds like a chocolate cloud cake. It's a Nigella Lawson recipe. And it is fucking delicious. I fill it with whipped cream and fresh berries, but you can fill it with whatever you want.

So this weekend was my mates 30th Birthday, and I was tasked with cake making. So I made this. Goddamn if it wasn’t good cake, because I used my mums recipe. The 2.25 kg of buttercream icing also helped. the sand was a mix of crushed biscuits, brown sugar and Popping candy and Terry the turtle was moulded from rice…

Oh yes! He was beautiful and scruffy and deliciously cute with the dogs.

Sexy Freddy Krueger (for hot sweaty club reasons) and sad clown. I fucking love Halloween!

So there is a programme on in the UK called Paul O'Grady - For the love of dogs, and it is essentially a programme about Battersea Dogs Home in London. Tonight's episode features Mr Hardy, as I think he is one of their Patrons. I am going sit down with a beer, and drink him in.

Exactly! I like mine on a bed of Courgette (zucchini) and Green Beans or Asparagus, a squeeze of Lemon or Lime and a blob of Pesto on top. 20 Minutes in the oven, no washing up. Best weeknight night dinner EVAR, with either Rice or Couscous or some kind of Potato on the side.

Except in the UK the age of Consent is 16, not 18, so not law breaking.

I made a ground Beef stew that lasted us for 2 nights, and was SO easy and simple in our crockpot. It’s just so handy for when you get home from work and don’t have to cook.

I will be 32 when we get hitched too, and I agree! Old Crone brides unite! ;)

I saw 3 guys on these in our local shopping centre (mall) and security chucked them out! It was awesome. England doesn’t care for such follies.
