What is 'housebound'??
Do you think of yourself as housebound?? I used to consider myself housebound because I couldn't leave the house at all, but now I get out for occassional walks and to some medical appointments, although I can't do it reliably or regularly and still consider myself housebound but think I probably shouldn't anymore! It made…

If you were to teach something you’re good at, what would it be?
For me, I'd teach piano as I've been playing since I was very young. I tried to teach my son but he had little interest in it. I'm hoping my daughter will be different! She's 1 and absolutely loves her little instrument box, but it's maybe because she gets to hit a drum and make a loud noise 😂 What would you teach?

What Is Your Perfect Sandwich? 🥪✨
I had a delicious moment during my lunch break that made me think I've found my perfect sandwich. It was tiger bread with Branston pickle, cucumber, lots of crunchy fresh lettuce, tomato, red onion and quorn veggie ham slices cut into 2 triangles. The shape does make it taste better! So now I'm curious…what's your perfect…

Hi! Now tell me something embarrassing!
Good morning all, My name's Carl, I'm new to the forum (but not new to Scope!). I could tell you all about my pets or my hobbies, but I thought the best way to introduce myself to you all is by sharing a story about one of the most embarrassing thing that's happened to me… To cut a long story short: It's the first time…

What should be a Winter Olympics sport but isn't?
Some of us at Scope have been watching the Winter Olympics for the last few days and realised that some of the sports could be more exciting with a couple of rule changes. So, what sport (real or imagined) should be a Winter Olympics sport but isn't at the moment? I submit to you: The Penguin Slide Relay where teams wear…

laughing at inappropriate times
Does anyone else do this?? I have my whole life. I remember being in assemblies as a kid and they're be on serious topics and I'd get the giggles, or on school trips to sad places and stuff and it's gotten worse as I've aged 😅 Anyone else?? To clarify, I don't find the actual event or whatever funny, I think it's the…

A poem called cloudy skies
A poem called cloudy skies It means that it is dry, and cloudy skies. There is no surprise in those cloudy skies, as we look out of our windows it leaves us feeling motivated to go and do things we need to do. This is how our foe those cloudy skies make us feel. But we deal with whatever comes our way, and that's all I…

Would you want to live on another planet?
I was having this conversation with my housemate this morning and thought it would be interesting to see what you all think! If you had the option to live in space or on another planet, would you go? I'm becoming a bit of an earth-child in my old age, and I think I'd firmly want to stay here even if there was another…

I love...
Inspired by Biblioklept's discussion about things we don't like, I thought we could share what we love too! I love getting cosy under a big blanket with a cup of green tea and some biscuits. I also love learning about unusual topics, such as bread clips and bus stops!

For example I loaded it just now and these are the leading articles: Why Generation Alpha are being raised as Content, not Children Doctor’s warning as … Cancer: 15 foods to…

A surprising fact about me is...
I had a pet tern called Terry! My mum worked for the RSPCA and we had a myriad of animals come and stay with us. It was a very fun time and felt like I was living in a zoo sometimes. However, it did trigger my fear of birds as we housed a parrot for a few days and it absolutely hated me 😰 Tell us yours!

How do you remember the Fruit of the Loom logo?
I totally remember the one on the left with the cornucopia, but it turns out it's a false memory that a lot of people have and FOTL logo has always been the one on the right without the cornucopia. Until recently I had never heard of or seen a cornucopia, so why has my brain always associated the FOTL logo with one? I…

What Are Your Favourite "Cult Classic" Film & TV Shows?🤩🎬️
My local cinema have been showing David Lynch films over the weekend and one of my friends is a big fan of his and so we went along to watch Mulholland Drive.
