Mine's classy. As am I. :emot-prettywink:
I'm getting my nose pierced soon too - my son had one done and he keeps playing with it - looks well stimmy. He won't let me twizzle his, so I'll have to get my own done! :dribble:

I still can't understand those who still suddenly decide to take up smoking willy-nilly in this day and age who previously were lifelong non-smokers, especially in pursuit of 'keeping up with the Jones's'.
All I can say is that those who start smoking now must have a lot of money. Last time I checked it was almost a tenner for a pack of 20? Stuff that for a game of conkers!! A fiver in the 80s used to get you a pack of ciggies, a few drinks, admission to the disco (do we still say that?) bus fare, a bag of chips and have some change! Or I used to filch a few cigs off my mum. (shh don't tell her!) Quick shake of the packet and she never knew. :whistles: Though I do recall her peering into the packet with a confused look on her face periodically. Am bad girl, no?
Actually, just checked the price of 20 cigs in Tesco and they are almost £14!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ohmy::ohmy::ohmy:
Glad I gave up. :yesyes:

Unfortunately I'm still smoker. Never quite managed to stop and over the last couple of months have been a bit of a continual chimney. Now I have a new vape, I'm trying to switch over.
But I remember buying a pack of 10, a single and a bag of chips for about £2. That was way back in the 80's.

Oh I roll my own now - cheaper but still not cheap (around £16 for 30g).

They're food in many S American countries.

Also true. Heck, rabbits are good eating, too.
Re: Partner keeps re-arranging furniture and rooms every other month
It’s hard when you can’t communicate properly about these things. Living with someone should always be a compromise on both sides and it sounds like it’s mostly you doing the compromising right now which isn’t fair. So you aren’t being petty.

My wife is from Ecuador. She ate them there. It's a common street food where they grill or deep fry them. She said it tastes like a combination of rabbit and duck. I had them as pets and I can't imagine eating one :scared15:

I have had 3 house rabbits and can't imagine eating conejo....or guinea pigs.

I had two French Lops that were house bunnies many years ago. Litter trained and all. Lovely sweet fur babies... much like a cat TBH.

Where you say 'single', I take it you must be referring to a 7'' vinyl music single.
I guess back in the 80s most shops were far more lenient in selling cigs (and probably booze) to under-agers, or simply didn't care.
My brother and his mates used to sneak into pubs in our town centre back in 1995 at the age of 15 and still get served booze with relative impunity, and no one seemed to bat an eyelid back then.
Also, they even managed to sneak into the two main nightclubs in our town at the age of 15 back then, and again, no one even seemed to give a monkeys!
Luckily, they never came to any harm though, nor were ever involved in any kind of aggro AFAIK.
I vividly recall hearing all kinds of tales from him about the shenanigans of other revellers that he witnessed back then.
