Does anyone else cut away just the top part of the cellophane on a new box of tea bags to avoid a mess of tea dust on the cupboard shelves? @yorkshiretea.bsky.social

Disappearing all day to go out to play and not coming home till dinnertime.
Being warned about getting gangrene when you cut yourself.
What’s a real thing from your childhood that kids these days would find completely foreign?
Like, how we used to be able to walk right up to the gate to meet our family coming off a flight.
Or how we had to pick a spot to meet at the theater BEFORE we went.

Scrubbed my bathroom to within an inch of its life today. All because my sister is coming to stay.

Hello! I am working on a project with the Royal Institution about the Christmas Lectures, and would love to talk to people who grew up watching them on TV, or now watch them with their own kids (or, ideally, both). Please share 🤗

I was horrified yesterday to find out that my friend (older than me) keeps her PIN numbers in her wallet alongside her bank cards. She is not technically savvy, so trying to convert her to a phone with fingerprint to pay would fail. How can I help keep her safe?

I cut up an old pair of jeans and made a bag. First time I have tried sewing a bag.

Looked after my grandson all day. Had a G&T when he went home, and now I'm falling asleep in my chair.

Today, I hung my washing outside to dry for the first time this year. I forgot to bring it in, so I assume it will be freeze-dried in the morning

I owe an apology to all James Bond movies. I mocked them for having completely unrealistic, cartoonish villains that simply weren't believable.
2025 has made it impossible to levy that criticism anymore.
