    @Jellyelephant thank you <3 I couldn’t believe it, that’s a few times I’ve won £30 now and for it to happen 2 days before christmas is pretty nice!!

    Thanks for sharing the music you both enjoy @Apollo :)

    Oh, I like Daft Punk too! What is your favourite Daft Punk song?

    And can you recommend any Kero Kero Bonito and Mitski songs for me?

    I'm not sure I have heard of them before! :3

    Good morning @supernova, @Jellyelephant, @independent_, and @Millie2787

    How are we all this morning?

    Good luck to your brother with his vaccine @Millie2787 and good luck to you with looking after your niece today! I am sure you will enjoy it, the same with wrapping presents with your mum :)

    Have a safe travel @Jellyelephant. Hopefully, you won't have forgotten anything but if you have it is never too late, there are usually temporary replacements if you have all the essentials! <3

    That's a nice big win @independent_ Congratulations! What might you buy? :)

    Hello @Dancer :) How are you?

    I'm glad you are okay @Dandelion :)

    How was the run? And how much work have you got left? I know you had nearly completed your report when I last heard yesterday! I hope you enjoy the town.

    I'm good thank you. I haven't got much planned but I am even more excited that Encanto comes to Disney+ tomorrow! =)

    My run was okay thanks @Laura_tigger82 ive got used to running my route at uni so I’m finding this route back home a bit harder (there’s more hills lol). I’ve got one small section left and then I need to amend bits and reference but I still hoping I can get it done today, I’ll let you know at the end of the day 😂.

    Ooh I didn’t realise encanto was out so soon, I’ll have to watch it at some point

    Yes hello hello :D hope you're all enjoying the holidays.

    I'm okay, not much really happening for me but some friends are home over Christmas so I'll probably be organising doing something with them at some point.

    Anyone doing anything nice over Christmas and New Year?

    I always love watching new Disney films on Christmas Eve with my family and it looks like Encanto is this year's watch! :3

    How are your holidays going @Supernova? :3 Time with friends sounds great <3

    I love referencing and doing the bibliography (what my uni calls it). Normally just sit there on the sofa and just do them all at once
    Some people think I am unhappy. I'm not. I just approach silence in the world that never stops talking.

    You and I both @Abigail :)

    Preferably with a cup of tea and music in the background for me! :)

    I'm sorry to hear you are struggling @Jellyelephant

    Is there anything we can do to support you with your anxiety?

    What normally helps you when you are feeling anxious?

    I'm sorry to hear this @Jellyelephant :/

    Could you do relaxing activities like listening to music and watching television?

    Could you plan activities with your family like baking, games, and shopping?

    I can certainly listen and hope you are feeling better soon :3

    Tried to wrap presents earlier but without the present in it (if that makes any sense) and completely failed.

    My mum said she'll do it and I'll just help with the tape. It's my presents though so my mum said she'll blindfold me and guide my hand to where I need to put it.
