Hard agree with this. At work this summer I said my daughter was going to a festival - everyone told me not to worry as I could track her at all times. When I said I’d never tracked her location, they were shocked. I trust my child to be where she says she is, with the ability to look after herself.
People are very hard on young people on here, lack of critical thinking, lack of responsibility etc, and then you see something like this and it all makes a different kind of sense.

There’s an ad on Sky Sports for BetFred, and it features a Mancunian bloke arguing with his mate, and I’m sure it’s someone who used to be a tv presenter. Mike something, maybe? Kind of like a Tim Lovejoy-type ‘lad’ presenter in the 90s? Help me out, it’s driving me mad.

My daughter’s opinion on the terrible de-aging effects used for a Will Byers flashback scene in Stranger Things 5: ‘He looks like he’s off on the Polar Express.’

Finished The Beast in Me last night. If you manage your expectations and are not fooled by the funky titles and brilliant soundtrack into thinking it’s anything more than a tawdry thriller, you’ll enjoy it. It’s ridiculous, but the best ones are.

Big news at the doctor’s surgery - they now issue wide, shallow pots for collecting your stool sample which you then ‘decant’ into the narrow sample tube before handing in. This makes my usual method of ‘Andrex hammock’ redundant.
Yes, you saw Andrex Hammock at Glasto ‘97 etc.

Daughter’s just told me her history teacher said he liked Michael Jackson and one kid said ‘Yeah, Black or White!’ and he replied ‘Well, when he was younger…’ 😂
