Much as I love chocolate, this one looks decidedly unappetising! Perhaps it's the colour? I'd love for someone to try the recipe with dark chocolate and see whether that's any good. [And no, I'm not offering to experiment as I burn water!]

It's fascinating to read articles/surveys about how (young) men want women to behave. Were they raised in households where their mothers behaved (or were treated) in these particular ways?

I love strong tea and coffee so it's definitely Twining's Extra Strong Breakfast for me. Every time.

Thank you for the tip! Now all I need is a steady supply of the green stuff!! 😉

Amazing shot, @CharlieBear - B&W was definitely the right choice!

I drafted a response about suffragettes having sacrificed so much to get women the right to vote and yet, more than 100 years later, we still have women who feel the need to polish their kitchen sinks, but then decided against posting that as I might have been hauled before the courts for...

This makes no sense to me. Waste of electricity. And what about the huge amount of time it takes her to break open the eggs and discard the egg shells? ;)

How amazing! We need to hear more stories like these...

Whatever floats her boat, especially since the bathroom is hardly ever used. I must admit that I'd be mightily confused to enter my host's bathroom and find pebbles in the basin ... am I allowed to brush my teeth and spit on them?

This reminds me of the cigarette ads where Dr Such-and-Such recommended smoking Brand X!

Two questions: 1) Why do we always see women demonstrating 'bed-making' on their own? Where are the other users of the bed - partners and/or children? If one is fortunate to have other people in the house, all these tasks become much easier. 2) Am I the only person in Australia to still iron bed...

I'm a typical pear and the clothes don't fit me either - snug around the hips and miles too big around the waist. And elasticised waists all sag or start falling off ... sigh.

Stirrup pants were sensible in the 80s as fabrics did not 'perform' as well as they do now (see the comment from @Phyll about baggy knees above). Stretch fabrics have evolved since then and are now light years away from what put up with then.

So you're halfway through your shopping when you change your mind and decide to swap one item for another ... how do you cancel/deduct the original?

Fascinating that this topic attracted so many comments! Wow! Could the people who find the anthem boring indicate which national anthems they like?

I have mobility problems and having a bag over one shoulder only tends to affect my balance, so crossbody is the best version for me. But yes, I fully agree that they're less attractive!

I understand and agree with your comment around rip-offs. However, according to the article, the Louis Vuitton costs around $4,800!! Is that a good reflection of the value of the bag? Also, with fashion items, everyone copies everyone else. All the time. For example, the article states that...

According to the Australian Asexuals group, Asexuality is a sexual orientation defined by a lack of sexual attraction to any person of any gender. This has nothing to do with the person's libido or desire to participate in sexual activities. I found this explanation on...

IVF is mentioned early in the article.
