Patchouli smells like BO. How can it be sold?
This is true it may not count as a silly opinion.

I think it smells more like moth balls

Picking one's nose is one of life’s great pleasures.

My husband would certainly agree with you

I remember the craze for patchouli oil perfume in the 1970’s. I bought a bottle and only used it once. After I’d worn it for a couple of hours it seemed to go ‘off’ and it made me feel dirty. It clung to clothes too, even after they were washed.

Pandas are ungrateful and should just breed considering all the effort everyone is going to for them

’easy-peelers’ are rubbish and it is a travesty that satsumas are now nearly impossible to find

Most Prosecco sold in the UK is headache inducing rubbish

Not if you drain them, drizzle garlic oil on top, pour mixed herbs over, put lid back on and give the pan a good, hard shake. DEEliccious!

Nope don't believe you 😃

Antimacassars need to make a comeback.

Agreed! And theyve a great name. And much better than adding a throw

Peaky Blinders is really boring.

Queen Camilla seems like a pretty cool person.

Prosecco is vile and just gives you a headache while you drink it along with heartburn. Champagne isn't any better.

EastEndQueen · 04/05/2023 23:14

Skinny jeans are delightful and much nicer then what the kids are wearing now

Totally agree about the driving retest post 65

Nuts do not belong in cake.

Quinoa does not belong anywhere.

Headlice should have been stamped out in the UK by now, like smallpox. Do we not have the technology?!!

You take that back! They're amazing!

Yep. Equally as lovely with sugar and a squeeze of lemon as a pud. I love watching them rise up in the oven.

My neighbours have a trampoline in the garden & the kids are out there all the time. Laughing and shouting. I love it, love to sit outside & listen to them. Reminds me of when mine were small

Goats cheese is grim. Tastes like feet. And as a vegetarian it's always always involved in the veggie option at weddings / events. Blush

Inkypot · 04/05/2023 23:16

@Rosscameasdoody I have never tried them like that! Adding that to the list of stuff to try along with the raisin pineapple bounty now

Main meals are shit. A meal should be a starter followed by dessert.

If it was this way I'd be a normal BMI.

Nutella is best eaten by the gobful.

My mum got me started on Yorkshire pud as a pudding. I love it with roast beef and gravy, but it really works with sugar and lemon juice - when you think about it, it makes sense because it’s pancake batter.

All perfumes you can buy commonly on the high street (eg Boots, Superdrug, Perfume Shop) smell the same sickly samey shite

Chocolate icecream is the worst flavour

Yarn-bombing is vandalism.

Yes! And littering.

And why do they roll it in ash ? Just makes a nasty product even nastier !!
