Quiet here, I've had dinner and now have tea and cake. Can't see anything watchable on Netflix, suggestions?

Anyone else having a very quiet night?

Building IKEA flat pack for DS' bedroom 😭 save me

Kitterkitkat · 23/01/2026 20:53

@CatherineParr unfortunately I've seen that! Claire Danes was very good. Might try Ozark as there are positive reviews.

Good luck with that @TheCurious0range, I always get into a tangle before it eventually goes into place.

Gin & tonic sitting in the conservatory listening to Jonathon Ross on Classic FM while DH cooks Thai curry for a late dinner - all very rock & roll here lol

Aw tea and cake sounds lovely. I did the weekly shop, made dinner, tidied up, washed and hung up uniforms and now I'm chilling with a cuppa talking to ye lovely people!! 😁❤️

Watching The Walking Dead (season 3, for the hundredth time) drinking rose tea and just put gluten free bread in the oven. I wish it was not gluten free.
Dog asleep beside me, child asleep in bed.

Watching Top of the Pops on BBC4

henlake7 · 23/01/2026 21:03

I feel like I spend more time scrolling through Netflix rather then actually watching anything. Done the same thing today, then picked up a good book instead (and a cheeky packet of crisps!).
Very boring evening😊

landlordhell · 23/01/2026 21:05

My eyes are closing. Sooo tired. Just watching Broadchurch. We are very late to the party. Then bed.

We have 6 10 year olds boys here for a sleepover. It’s very far from quiet 😂

mondaytosunday · 23/01/2026 21:06

Me! Sitting here with shepherds pie, glass of wine, Hijack in the TV, one cat sharing the sofa, other one on a kitchen stool.
I’m a widow, oldest lives on his own, youngest at uni. Dog passed away a couple weeks ago. Quite quiet quiet.

What channel is that on? Subscriptions etc

Tangerinesattack · 23/01/2026 21:10

Watching Death on the Nile with a gin and tonic and a cat on my lap. Lovely stuff!

shellyleppard · 23/01/2026 21:11

Takeaway pizza for us. Eldest one is on playstation, youngest in bed. I'm sitting with a book and a cup of tea....very rock and roll....not 🤣

Watching Top of the Pops on BBC4

We are too! Our era! We were 20.
Not liking many of the songs though, there were better weeks in ‘76.
I think it’s the summer we melted.

dontforgetme · 23/01/2026 21:24

We’re just sitting in the kitchen having a couple of drinks reminiscing about my lovely grandad. Chris Stapleton on the Alexa. Happy Friday all.

Bluemin · 23/01/2026 21:28

Watching the Picture of Dorian Gray. Came out when I was 20 and not seen it since then! It's on Prime. Very good.

Driftingawaynow · 23/01/2026 21:28

sitting With awareness a family member is probably going to die very soon. wondering if I will survive breast cancer. cat snoring by my feet. Camomile tea. Life is beautiful and strange.
Ozark is excellent

Clingfilm · 23/01/2026 21:29

Another Too if the Pops watcher here, I watch every week, love to see the fashion and hair and everyone's lithe and young, sigh.
I did clean the cooker earlier trying to distract me from wine as I'm doing dry Jan. Other family members are in different rooms watching their devices.

AreYouSureAskedNaomi · 23/01/2026 21:33

Binge watching S4C's Itopia with DC2. Sharing a blanket, DH is making us a snack, DC2 is cuddling a fluffy toy for the jump scares

ProfessorRedshoeblueshoe · 23/01/2026 21:33

I'm watching The G - I think it's on Film 4. It's scary.
