    Music is good! 
    TV is shit these days to be honest

    Only good thing on TV is the quiz shows aha, for a bit of lighthearted entertainment I love the chase.

    My mums boss got her haircut @independent_ and her hair is quite short like me short haha the washing wasn't an issue and if they cut around the ear they just tell you to remove the ear tie and hold it to your face :)

    @Past User aww that's good to know :) it's all so complex now!

    I love bubble wrap!!!!! It's so relaxing and even now I'm still compelled to pop it as soon as it's anywhere near me!

    @Past User that's the best kind of bubble wrap!!! I used to try to pop that by standing on the bubbles when I was a kid aha. I can't remember if it worked or not but it's a very vivid fun memory I have.

    @Dandelion goodnight hope work goes alright tomorrow <3

    @GreenTea oooooh I can't believe I'm about to look on amazon to see if you can actually get bubble wrap and bubble wrap alone there!! 

    @Past User they do unfortunately, I've found that as well recently, remember samaritans and shout are open 24/7 if you need support just now

    Pity, you’d think it would be night time when people are feeling most vulnerable.

    @Liam I completely agree if I need support it's likely gonna be at night. That's where shout comes in. And Samaritans if you are ok with talking on the phone. 

    @Past User I know how you feel it sometimes feels like nothing can fix it sometimes it's good just to talk about it.

    I've spoken to a lot of services over the years, most do close at 10 though or 11.
