There is a small but vocal minority that really tries to get them hooked on bagpipes. As a parent, I’ve had to be so vigilant.

They do it in Scotland too. Sometimes (gulp) they progress them to the fiddle. It’s inhuman.

We got a new television after 14 years. It’s very large and when it arrived my husband said ‘oh boy! I am going to watch Days of Thunder!’

The BBC is taking a similar approach to sound design so you have to stay ready to turn the sound up or down at any moment. Highly interactive.

Really struggling with air travel and and a neurodivergent family along with capitalism and also etiquette - we have not a lot of money and certainly not £41 (per person) to book seats on a flight - 9 yo is autistic and can’t sit alone - I have seen posts about rudeness of asking for swapping seats

I find myself liberated from to-do lists. Because the answer to ‘what do I need to do today’ is 1 (maybe 2) things! Delightful.

He loves for who I am, and that has changed and shifted and he still loves me. He is kind and generous and sees people who are different and lifts them up. He also gives a great foot rub.

As an American who has immigrated to the UK I can say that they are very low key and mellow about WW2 so I get why Rishi Sunak thought leaving the commemoration was no biggie.
