Yeah, I was quite surprised by this as I’m so used to how capitalism ruins everything.

This is what I read and it was a shock to me that companies not only improved the quality of the cloth when they realised people made garments from sacks, but also strove to provide fashionable designs and wash-off labels. There are some really gorgeous prints on here.

Nowadays, it feels like they would make the original packaging more coarse, then sell the product with nicer packaging at a premium, whilst making sure their logo was indelible.

Thank you for sending me down a delightful little rabbit hole looking into this

Oh wow, this is my orange doing the same thing! It’s his preferred position.

Thank you for sharing.

Childbirth, but my son’s birth, not mine. Lost a lot of blood and had to have meds to slow it, surgery to stop it, and a transfusion to replace it.

I don’t think anything would have got me before then, but I’m vaccinated, so who knows?

Muscled like a maiden’s fantasy!

I thought someone might have already shared this…

It was in the comments on another post a few weeks ago and I ended up watching the whole thing.

There is also a good You’re Wrong About podcast episode on this.

Of course it’s in Scunthorpe.

I met a cat in a chip shop, rubbing against everyone’s legs. Apparently he was in there often and the delivery driver would drop him home.

Outstanding

This probably pins me to a particular age bracket

I think I’m also in that age bracket but we had Trendies and Greebos. (I was a Greebo.)

I get that. I’ve been trying not to use the wooden boards for cutting them as it gives off such a weird smell when I wash them.

Not allergic, but the very thought of onions (and garlic) in pregnancy made me feel sick. Smelling them or seeing them cooked (with their translucent little stripes) would have me heaving. All the foods I love have onions and garlic in. It was awful.

Boris Johnson is in this club. People were too focused on his candyfloss hair and bumbling manner to realise how awful he actually is. Terrible Prime Minister.

I’ve never seen him or Nigel Farage in a suit that fits. It’s an attempt to distance them from the establishment.

He looks like a tardigrade

D4 assuming there’s no milk in it. My mother likes A2, maybe 3. It’s a waste of a tea bag.

Looks amazing! I have made samosas using filo, but also flour tortillas. You cut them in half then fold each half around your filling, using water and crimping to seal then.

Thanks! I’ll have a look.
