Lotus biscuits/spread - any of it. Used to LOVE it, now I'm completely sick of it.

Prosecco - liked the taste bit good grief it was taken over by the 'dance on the tables and drink Prosecco' gang so that had to go.

Gin - same

There are so many other things. I think lockdown has made me even more grumpy. 😁

I also need to add cleaning my house and other 'lockdown household jobs'. It was so spotless last lockdown and now I just don't give a shiny shite even though I've got more time than I know what to do with.

@PinkyParrot

Murder series - gruesome death, pia detective with ishoos - there are only so many variations on a theme.

Same here - but books . I have been reading 2-3 Kindle books a week, normally crime books. Just started reading the mind of romcom I enjoyed in my 20s for something different .

‘Fun’ activities over zoom. Doing jigsaws. Zumba - but hopefully I will enjoy that again one day when the gym has re-opened. Prawns - don’t know why, but have suddenly gone off them a bit.

Coffee 🤢 i used to adore and crave it, i can't even stand the smell now

Gobbeldegook · 21/02/2021 00:26

Complaining. Used to love a good moan. Listening to others moan. I just want happy stories now. Defo more appreciative

Soup ! Soup I make for work lunches, that is.....

Started off as a health thing and I loved it, but now bored of.
Carrot and lentil soup, carrot and coriander soup, carrot and parsnip soup, tomato soup just to break it up a bit 🙄. Yes, I know there are more flavours to try, but dh does the shopping and as we have a roast on Sundays, he bulk buys carrots....

Getting fed up of Sunday roasts...
Still like my walks though..

salted caramel!

The colour grey 🤮 I used to like it but it's now so fashionable for home decor. After house hunting and viewing many properties I can't face it anymore. Grey walls, grey carpet, grey front doors, grey paneling, grey tiles, grey throws...grey, grey, grey.

SuperSharpShooter · 21/02/2021 12:12

@UseofWeapons - Cauliflower 😂 that has made me proper lol. Those pesky lockdown cauliflowers.

I used to like my kids oldest friend (who lives far away) and my relationship with his parents. Lockdown has turned him into a nightmare who has caused nothing but trouble between my kid and his other friends who we live close to and goes to school with, all over games with kids he’s never even met - death threats, the lot. His parents have been pretty lax in dealing with it all and my kid(s) stuck in the middle of it all.
We’ve had a fairly easy ride with lockdowns, my kids get on well and the house is usually peaceful!
I’m sad that we’ll never go back to our twice yearly meet ups at fun places that have been part of our lives for 13 yrs 😓

Just living in general. The weather is crap, TV is crap, I can't bring myself to read the same books over and over anymore or do craft things, our local park got vandalised by teenagers so I can't take my son to play anymore, walking is horrible because it's so cold outside and muddy, I can't even enjoy a cocktail in the evenings because I'm pregnant.

I'm so bored and fed up.

SugarfreeBlitz · 21/02/2021 13:26

High protien meal replacement soup. Ive eaten the same one every day for lunch since September. Am so bored and going back to high protien salads soon.

groundcontroltomontydon · 21/02/2021 14:42

Once I'm released from lockdown I'm going to be the most overdressed person for any occasion
Agree! I'll be haute couture-ing at the drop of a hat - when I put the bins out the neigbours will be shouting 'who are you wearing?' ...

StormyLovesOdd · 21/02/2021 15:06

DH and his comedy routines, he thinks he's funny, he's very very wrong. Ive heard all his jokes a million times on repeat

We live in a small house and I long to have some quiet time in the house on my own without DH and children there all the time. I am never alone now 🥲

Popcornbetty · 22/02/2021 14:01

'I'm going to turn from leggings or PJ slob to dressed to kill at Tesco.'

😂 i put lipstick on just for a drive in the car the other day....why not?! Sometimes i'll put it on just to hoover too Shock

@Snowymcsnowsony

My Dhusky.. She has decided now is a great time to shed huge bag fulls of hair.... Usually the weather is nicer and can shove her outside!! Where she prefers when fully fluffy! Ds6 asked every day this week why his toast always has a hair on.. Blush
This reminds me of a time a year or so ago. On a dog walk I saw what I thought (from a distance) was a woman wiping her dog down with handfuls of tissues or wet wipes and just throwing them on the grass Shock Got closer and saw that it was an 'exploding' husky and she was actually trying to get rid of the worst of the fur before bringing him indoors Grin
Snowymcsnowsony · 22/02/2021 15:55

She is a walking fur cloud.
. Everywhere is covered... Tried keeping her downstairs.. Isn't working...
Looks half sheared!

Used to drink tea, then totally went off it after pregnancy - tastes like dishwater now. Also used to like herbal teas but now they taste like spicy dishwater. Sad

SilkySuky · 22/02/2021 16:38

Food- cooking planning all of it
Cleaning- no matter what I do the house is a tip.
Mud- daily walks and the garden is minging at the moment.
The house- it all needs painting but if I do it myself I'm rubbish at cutting in and I will end up sitting staring at the mistakes I make along the ceiling.

Boooo to the lot of it.

Fembot123 · 22/02/2021 16:40

Cooking, walking, talking, working, TV, films, takeaways, nights in, days in, weekends in.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 22/02/2021 16:59

@Snowymcsnowsony and she doesn't look even the slightest bit sorry Grin
