Christmas already?
I went through town earlier and a well-known shop that sells craft things (amongst other items) had started displaying Christmas craft bits and bobs. What are your thoughts? Is it too early? Perfect for crafters? Or something else entirely?

What you can do, not what you can't
I have two very elderly and frail relatives who are unable to do lots of things. They have very opposite attitudes to life. One of them deeply mourns the loss of their youth, always talking about what they can no longer do and wishing they were young and able again. They absolutely hate being old and are always complaining…

Tattoos
Does anyone have them and care to share more. What do you have; why you got them; when did you get them; do you regret doing it, did you change your mind as you got older, or would you do it again without hesitation. I can’t wear short sleeves, partly because I used to self harm mostly by cutting my arms which has left a…

Things that last a surprisingly short amount of time...
Opposite to other thread about things lasting a lifetime... Be careful about naming & shaming specific brands 1. Earphones - seem to buy a pair every 2 months, I have tried buying good ones but they break as well so I just buy £5.99 ones now... 2. Bought a watch from a company which is meant to be a half decent make, it…

I would be interested to hear what things do people have that will, should or have lasted a lifetime, and the stories behind them, if…
