I was passing Mappin and Webb the other day and I saw a display of short silver tubes or cylinders. Too small to be bangles, they were about two inches in diameter and one to two inches in length. Ornamented with various patterns and designs.

What on earth were they?

LivingTheThighLife · 03/01/2020 20:20

What do you think of Northerners?

Some of them are quite funny

We’re considering whether I should join the same club as my husband. What do you think? Who should I ask to sign for me, do you think?

Gentlemen need their own clubs to do gentlemen things like drinking whiskey and wearing skirts

Who are your top 3 celebrity crushes?

IndianaMoleWoman · 03/01/2020 20:41

Does your DH have a hobby that can be disclosed on MN without it being horribly outing? If so, what is it? How much time does he spend on it and what impact does this have on your life?
