I think I saw Melania Trump smile properly for the irst time ever to day, she was with Catherine visiting some scouts, had one small child on her lap and was playing with others, I've never seen her look so human.

I wish this site wouldn't decide it's randomly going to sign me out and that when it does my cursor would work properly and not stay stuck, it never matters what mouse I use, it always does it to annoy me.

I had an oddity the other day, I was coming in from outside and realised a draft was blowing under my toes, I looked down and I had a hole in the toe of my slippers!

  • All my Christmas decs are in boxes in my living room at the moment because I am lacking storage and furniture! I’m actually so tempted to put them up before Halloween but I’m worried my Xmas trees will dent my new carpets. 

    I also relate to Squidward off SpongeBob too much

    It is best to put a board of some kind under the tree to distrubute the weight and stop it forming little divots in the carpet.

    Better still, use a tray or something with a curved edge as the base to it so there is no transition line with the shallow dent it will still make. You can put a foam sheet on the tray so the tree does not slide about too.

    Ahh brilliant thank you for those tips! Will defo ask you for more if I need any! Say I have a tree skirt anyway so no one will see what it will be standing on anyway lol. Might do the same with some trees on tables. Rest the table on the boards. Then hide with some fake presents haha! Say I’ll probably have a different arrangement again next year! Just whilst I’m waiting for all the furniture to come haha!
