@birdwatchbud Mine just learnt (at 19) that headbutting me in bed will wake me up for attention!

@sillymoder_ Do you get the benefit if you have one in just the main room? Or you need one in every room? My apt is like 200 m3.

@jennirsl Real custard would have cost more than the school budget for the entire meal!

@AmazonHelp @EmmelineWyndham Delivery Instructions don't matter. They still ignore them.

@Knight21st TBF, even some van drivers don't know this. My brother has been driving 30 years and only found out when he had to do a speed awareness course 🤣

@jtimsuggs Will you read X-Wing: Mercy Kill? Was written much later (2012) by AA, and it's also set way later. It's the only one of the X-Wing series I haven't re-read. I don't recall enjoying it as much as the others. Would love to hear a fresh perspective

@InterstellrNews I have them on DVD, but watching on YT was easier than pulling the physical media out of storage 🤣

@vitt2tsnoc They did the same last year in my German supermarket with pink baskets. Never saw anyone pick one up..

@abertrotzdem @Jenny_1884 I felt bad every time a card arrived with a £3.40 stamp on it. Less than half that to send one the other way

@Gremlili @Hoonyusi I would just comment on milk- don't give them cows milk. Other milk can be OK. I get the specially formulated "cat" milk. Lactose free and added nutrients. The only way to get additional liquid into my water-averse Holly 😅

@DrLKVaughan It has been like this for years. Exactly the same for a friend of mine at Uni, graduated probably '04 or '05. Hundreds more students allowed to enrol than there could ever be jobs for...
