@Poppy_yyyyyyyy Nothing for May but in June teams of five in fancy dress race decorated “beds” with kid sitting on it sounding air horns through the town and through the river, up a hideous hill and down the high street whilst the entire town gets absolutely rat-arsed.

@ronmanagernottm I still have my wax seal with my intitial whixh was given to me when I was 12 and I still seal all my Xmas presents with it.

@tomsnoogans @Skriptkeeper17 It’s a bit like if Americans have a bike on Martha’s Vinyard. Ancient bike - old money had a cottage there generations. New bike, new money and looked down on. If you don’t get it, you’re either poor, new money or American.

@tomsnoogans @Skriptkeeper17 I literally worked at the stately home of one of his close friends. They’d have us darning 25 year old jumpers because Charles believes in buying quality and keeping it for years & also it’s a flex in aristocratic circles. Old money works differently. Old things are a flex. 🤷♀️🙄

@SarahBe38208324 @kittenaround_51 Me too!! I’ve never found a shimmer lipstick that pigmented!

@kittenaround_51 Anyone know what that last lipstick is? The shimmery pink one...

@Her_Nonymous_D He was testing how much you’d put up with. There will be several girls going through the same thing a the one who clings on will be his victim for years.

At that point, it wasn’t even annoying, it was almost impressive. The level of disconnect. The confidence to disappear, miss the entire plan, and then come back like I’m the one overreacting?
No.
That wasn’t about being busy. That was about not valuing my time.
And once someone shows you that this early, there’s really nothing left to discuss.
English

Am I losing it, or is this actually ridiculous?
I made plans with a man on Tuesday for Sunday at 1pm. We agreed on the day, the time, even the general location. Everything was set.
Then… he basically disappeared.
For the next couple of days, communication was dry at best. If I reached out, I’d get one-word replies. Then by Friday, nothing. A full 24 hours of silence. So I messaged him like, “Hey, I’m assuming Sunday is off?” Trying to be realistic.
He pops back up and says, “No, I’m definitely still interested.” Okay… noted.
Then Sunday comes. Still silence.
By 11am, I’m like yeah, I’m not doing this. I sent a calm message letting him know I’m no longer interested. No drama, just closing the loop.
Tell me why this man replies…

@harman_geoff @MerryOlEngland Gosh no, I’d have been much younger. Sounds like my crowd though x

@hellshousewife @MerryOlEngland Is your other daughter Harry?
I met a lovely young lady at a ball at the Queen’s Club in about 1989 who was a Harriet, definitely not a Harry, she was quick to tell me.

This is what the actual upper class look like.

@raggedydocs I want Jerry Hall, James Blunt and now you’re right - Miranda. Dream line up.
English

@harman_geoff @MerryOlEngland I love her look though. Snotty wellie snobbery aside, she looks cool as hell and I bet she can drink most men who don’t know what a peg is under the table.
English

@harman_geoff @MerryOlEngland Hunters are a bit gauche. They’re spare wellies. We tend to wear Le Chameau or Ariat. Yes we drink pints and on a shoot, shots for breakfast. I am literally called Charlie. My daughter is Arabella. 🤷♀️😬
English

@FrogeLole @ninifems So your solution to women being scared because we didn’t smile at you is to shoot you? Fine.
English

@SamaHoole @T66901660 Largely true but let’s be honest - we are now breeding our dairy with beef - which is good, it stops the slaughter of spare dairy but mixing wagyu into friesian amd calling it wagyu in Aldi is rather shifty.

The cheapest beef in a British supermarket is on a different planet to anything sitting on an American shelf.
Here's why.
American beef:
- 6 growth hormones. Standard. No labelling.
- Ractopamine: a muscle-bulking drug. Banned in 168 countries. Legal in the US.
- 95% finished in feedlots. Concrete pens, no grass, no movement.
- Final months on corn and soya. Stomachs not built for it.
- Routine antibiotics on healthy cows. Standard.
- Force-fattened to 1,300+ lbs as fast as possible.
- Bred for size. The fat is white. It comes from grain.
British beef:
- Growth hormones banned since 1989.
- Ractopamine banned. Imports tested and rejected if traces show up.
- Cows live the bulk of their lives on grass. The default, not the premium.
- Native breeds. Hereford. Aberdeen Angus. Shorthorn. Galloway.
- Routine antibiotics on healthy cows: banned in 2022.
- Slower-grown. Slaughtered around 22 months.
- The fat is yellow. That's what grass-fed looks like. Omega-3s, vitamin E, the nutrients your body actually wants.
Both versions are still elite foods. But there are levels to this.

@DogmaKarma @sappholives83 Oh they are. Plenty of threads on Reddit talking about going through sanitary waste bins for “juicy” pads 🤮🤮🤮🤮

@sappholives83 At least it's just tomato sauce. I'm glad they aren't stealing actual blood.

So, yesterday Trump is at his golf course in FL. He's playing around, and suddenly he leaves for a dentist appointment. His press team says it was a regularly scheduled appointment but it was not on his Presidential schedule.
Today @NancyMace posted this. What's going on?

@KirstiMiller30 Used to play it in the UK but they were for ever banning it due to broken wrists.

I grew up in Wagga Wagga where the kids growing up used to play a game called "Red Rover Cross Over".
It was mainly a boys game where all the boys would gather in a group at the end of the playground with one boy standing in the middle of the playground.
He'd yell "Red Rover Cross Over” and all the other kids had to run to the other end of the playground without being caught.
The kid in the middle had to catch and hold one of them while yelling "caught 123"
The kid caught would then join the kid in the middle for the next call of "Red Rover Cross Over" during which both kids in the middle would catch another kid who would stay in the middle and so on.
The last kid caught would win the game and he'd be the one to stay in the middle for next round.
It was good fun (my three daughters used to play it most afternoons with me) while giving the kids exercise and training for future rugby teams or other sports.
Can anyone else recall playing the same game?
