    @Salix_alba_2019 we love Gertrude they are cute and vibing. The swan was vibing with me too xd and there was a Tourchwood shrine where I went too (Tourchwood is spinoff show to Dr Who) in memory of a fan favourite character and the swan was just chilling at the shrine <3

    Apparently fun fact you can adopt a highway in the US, omg imagine if you could claim ducks. Im convinced the duck I saw near Ianto's shrine was Ianto himself reincarnated as a swan xd . I need to watch Torchwood as I've only seen scenes and looked at wiki. I haven't watched it yet lmao ik ik I should be watching xd as Ive heard good things.

    @Salix_alba_2019 wait so you calling it a duck wasn't a joke?? I was starting to think you're just messing around with me at this point xD

    Also I noticed that for some reason I don't get any notifications when you tag me. Just you, everyone else's work normally. Strange

    @JJLemon18 ooo that's odd, I'm not too sure what's going on there with the notifications.

    Every time I read this interaction , it proper makes me laugh 💀 I'M FROM THE CITY, PIGEONS ARE ALL I KNOW 🤣🤣🤣

    I also say bath as a collective term for an actual bath or shower and my boyfriends (past and present) have always corrected me lol

    @Salix_alba_2019 okay I actually got the notif this time.

    Hahaha. You see what I mean tho? There's a photo of a swan and you suddenly start going on about a duck named Gertrude, and I'm just like where on earth did that come from?? This made me laugh real good too :lol:

    I also say "bath" for both a bath and a shower lol. It's kind of like a standard word for "washing yourself" I guess

    I just say I'm having a shower when I shower and bath when I bath which is rare as I don't bath anymore.

    I was just looking through the old archives on here including my introduction in the introduce yourself thread and It's amazing to think that The Mix was previously known at The site before it was changed to The Mix. It's amazing to think that this place has been up and running since 2002 and earlier 2000's the year I was born. It makes me wonder what the future of The Mix will look like eventually <3 will still be here of course hehe

    Random but does anyone know how to avoid clothes shrinking? I feel like every single thing I buy ends up getting smaller after a couple of washes. I find something that fits perfectly in a shop but it never lasts very long. Unless clothes just do shrink a bit when you first wash them?

    What temp do you have it on?
    Used to go to the laundrettes when didn’t have washing machine and my clothes would always shrink so thought everyone’s did but then got own washing machine now never shrinks so might be your washing machine or the temp have it on. Maybe it’s because they tumbled dried it or something and don’t tumble dry just leave it to dry I dunno but used to annoy me loads. I would say my clothes maybe sometimes do shrink now but rarely
