    I once walked through an old railway tunnel. It went on for ages and it took us 15 minutes to walk through it. It was pitch black all the way through. Was awful lol

    There's a place in Scotland with a mine that my mum and dad have been down and dad keeps trying to persuade me to take another trip there with them!! Not a chance in hell am I going down a narrow claustrophobic mine!! @Past User your post reminded me of that.

    Leighbeer Tunnel is the one I'm on about. It's a horrible tunnel lol. Apparently it's not as long as I thought. I guess we were too scared and took our time
  • independent_independent_ Community Connector Posts: 9,952 Supreme Poster
    Some tunnels are even worse for tall folk like me. I do vaguely remember going down a mine when I was little, heaven forbid I went down there now because oh my god the ceilings were low! 5'10.5 me couldn't handle that!!

    Hahahah @Past User I can’t eat those I’ll never come off the sugar rush 🤣 I’m already a mad head

    @independent_ it was peer pressure 🤣 they all call me the baby of the group though so I had to prove that I’m not... but it failed because I ran off 😝😂

    Has anyone ever watched the film instant family?
  • independent_independent_ Community Connector Posts: 9,952 Supreme Poster
    I love teacakes soooo much!! They always remind me of when I was little and used to go to my gran's and she used to make me a (weak) nescafe original coffee and a teacake lol. She passed away a few years ago sadly but that still reminds me of her every time.
