Confusing, they’re shiny like plastic. I’ll have to check whether the ones I buy are card or plastic.

I had no idea such things existed and I absolutely would use them if I could find them. I’ve only seen plastic stemmed ones in my local supermarkets/pharmacies.

Don’t hate on your glasses - they’re great for disguising rough/rushed make up and they also mean you can get away with HEAPS more eye make up/funky colours. Now that I don’t have glasses (I got lasered) I feel like I look over the top for daytime if I’m wearing more than mascara. Eye liner/smokey eye is for date…

That’s going to be a tough one, but definitely set rules as suggested by other posters and you are going to have to emphasise “I’m at work, Dad” whenever he forgets and just pops his head in your office door for a chat or whatever and try not to get annoyed or resentful when he inevitably forgets.

Yes, Rainn, yes.

Yep, this season is fatally flawed. They should have had double the bachelors if they were having double the bachelorettes and then chopped the ones that were vying for the bachelorette that got chopped, thus leaving a bachelorette with bachelors who were all actually interested in her.

I wish I had eyes the same colour as Alexis Bledel. Also now I want to watch reruns of Gilmore Girls. That’s my work day sorted...

Swish is still a thing in New Zealand (maybe not with the under 30’s so much): you look very swish today.

I photographed a wedding recently where the Groom had a Best Lady & and a Groomsman - the men of the party were wearing black suits so the Best Lady wore a knee length tailored black dress (very different in style to the floaty, coloured bridesmaids dresses) with a little 3/4 sleeve jacket (it was cold so lucky her!…

Our (presumably part siamese) moggy used to do that in any travel crate too: head in the corner and howl incessantly. Loved hiding in cupboards and boxes, but as soon as she was in a travel crate it was mournful howl o’clock.

Definitely give it another go, especially if you can do that in France :) Last time we visited the in-laws there we were introduced to the wonders of semi-but-not-too-chilled Chardonnays (which I would previously have sworn I hated, completely converted now) and Rosés served similarly. We also discovered Pinot Blanc,…

I have never had a rosé that didn’t taste fruity and delicious. Dangerously drinkable, in my opinion. Did you chill yours? Much like a Chardonnay, Rosé wants to be cooler than room temp, but not so cool that it’s frosting the glass. Opens the flavours right up if it’s at the right temp.

Sounds like the pro-lifers need a taiaha to their genital region.

That was a surprise to me too, and I’m a woman who lives in New Zealand. I was under the (apparently mistaken) impression that abortion was legal here as long as you were under 20 weeks (and later than that if there was something wrong with the foetus). In fact, when I was a teenager and my mother was giving me the…

We don’t have any dingos in New Zealand, that would be Australia.

So these underpants hold a half to two tampons-worth of blood? So they’re expecting us to change UNDERPANTS every few hours??? Yeah, that sounds super convenient. Please, send me 10.

Ohhhhhhh. Yup, should have got that.

Can you post your son’s explanation? Just in case anyone else doesn’t get it? Not me, obviously. I’ve totally got it [nope, straight over my head].

Has The Smith Brat taken over Cher’s twitter account or something?

I’ll fight you for the skirt, but my big boobies & short torso are saying that the crop top is all yours.
