Weirdly (given your username!) pineapple juice. The freshly pressed type you get on an exotic holiday somewhere. I could honestly drink it at anytime but right now I really want some.

I guess I could go and buy a juicer and £425 worth of pineapples it'll take to make the amount I want to drink 😄🍍

I really want a chippy tea unfortunately I have a bad stomach and it is not a good idea, can't even have a drink!

Save the craving for when you’re feeling better, hope it’s soon x

Love a little trip around these kind of shops I’m a sucker for their little garden decorations at the moment 🤣

A dining table and chairs. I keep sending links to my DH, who says he’ll have a look and never does

@ohyesido snap!

SwornToSilence · 07/05/2025 20:13

I'd like a full Waitrose shop without having to get off my arse and do it / put it away

This new sofa that I have seen online. It's ££££££££ but I'm a bit smitten. Going to try it out tomorrow. It's okay to buy a ££££££ sofa right?

Yes totally you gotta be comfy and look good and we spend so much time on them!!

A house! Tired of moving from rented to rented all the time.

Just putting it out here in case anyone wants to throw a couple of hundreds of thousands my way! 😁

Edited: sorry, just read the word obtainable! OK, maybe a new pair of jeans. Hate trying them on in fitting rooms though.

TennesseeStella · 08/05/2025 12:52

To go back to bed after being awake half the night. I'm working from home, I could...but I probably shouldn't!

piscofrisco · 08/05/2025 13:03

I wasn’t to go to a garden centre and buy all my bedding plants for the summer. (And have 6 available hours to plant them). I have no time to do this and it’s really annoying me.

notprincehamlet · 08/05/2025 17:23

I want to drop around 6kg so I can fit into my nice cycling jersey without looking like a swiss roll stuffed into a sock. But I don't want it enough to stay away from toast.

Thank you. I needed the validation. Well I went to visit one today and I have decided to go for it. No expense spared on comfort! It's going to be glorious. Soooo comfortable compared to this sunken disaster I have at the moment, because it's way past it's best.

Make-up. I haven’t worn it since my 20s and now I’m older I NEED it, but don’t know where to start and I’m a bit embarrassed to approach the beautiful women on the make-up counters!

Food - hotdogs with lots of onions and tomato sauce! I very rarely have them, but am craving them today for some reason.

LinesAndLinesAndLinesAndLines · 08/05/2025 17:35

An exorcist rubber duck. And chips and cheese.

Exactly the same.
Never thought I needed it until just lately and I feel like I missed the boat in learning.
I am from the bronzer era.

I LOVE the phrase 'bits and bats'! 😻

So much better than bits and bobs (and I love bsts).

I'm going to start using that now: thank you @Moier!
