The original

They call it pop here in North-East of England as well.

I wasn’t a black out drunk, mainly cause it didn’t take much to make me drunk, but I couldn’t stop once I started either. First I hold out on drinking during the week, then I’d have drinks on the evening, then a drink before work then decided to quit before it got further out of hand.

I hope you find the motivation to quit cause honestly drinking is such a waste of time. I genuinely believe all you need is to believe you can.

I work in a care home. I also have that thought every single day.

No use crying over spilt (choccy) milk

I’ve got the same issue but with all black socks

Love a bit of blue cheese, pineapple and ham on my pizza (and not that uncommon in Finland), but I have actually had it with shrimp added and that was quite nice.

Half the plants I’ve grown seem to always catch some sort of a bug that I feel like wasn’t my fault, but I usually say a plant has survived despite my loving care.

I’ve grown some scotch bonnets, coriander and a few fruit trees from a seed but not with very much success. My lime tree was rescued by my sister, the mango by my step-mom.

The only one I’ve managed to not kill is the dragon tree I have but apparently they purify the air a bit.

Learning a new language. You learn a bit about how languages work, understand other cultures a bit better, usually learn new vocabulary for your native language, understand the relationship between different languages, learn the roots of loan words and generally helps your brain stay healthy, even by only studying the basics.

I’d like to be able to set the default view to sort by new in subscribed communities, currently it defaults back to active/local.

I’m sensitive to rejection so both in person and online I try to be agreeable and also find common ground with people. If someone’s stressed out at work and takes it out on me I tend to give them a bit of time to cool down then come and apologise and that seems to go a long way. It may seem silly but I think people refuse to apologise cause they don’t feel they’re in the wrong but I find it calms people down quickly and then I can bring up my viewpoint highlighting that it’s just how I view things and that doesn’t make their view any less legit.
