Maybe just me but seeing it more often. Op can say “I’ve been left with £10 to last me a month, I have four children to feed, and now the boiler has stopped working”

First reply... well you should feel lucky with your £10 I only habe £5 and I cannot conceive so feel lucky you have children.

Glummy, and the whole " well, what did we do in the 70's, 80's and 90's? We all entertained ourselves and went out on our choppers in the Street. We weren't bored."

Really?

I grew up in the 70's/ early 80's and remember being really scared when my mum was at work and I was home alone. I remember being felt up a few times by men and no one giving a shit when I told them and I remember a number of young girls being abducted by a long distance lorry driver/ serial killer which was front page for ages and being terrified.

Yes, those 70's/80's years were bliss.....Who needs water parks, theme parks, escape rooms and bowling when you can hang out behind a youth club.

@Comtesse

Oh your baby wakes up every 30 minutes every night for 12 months and you are hallucinating with tiredness? Oh but that’s NORMAL! My baby woke up every 10 mins for the first 12 years! babies are supposed to drive you to psychotic breakdowns! I managed to work 70 hours a week and have 5 others and I skipped around trilling all the day long! BLESS Flowers just pop LO in a sling when you make a veggie chilli in the slow cooker.

MY GOD how can people be so sanctimonious!

This in all seriousness sounds a bit like my MIL!
