We've done the last 2 big plastic counts and have signed up to do this years, if the format is the same as previously it is very easy.

It's such a good idea and campaign @Baileys_Babe, we try to reduce, reuse, and recycle, but the sheer amount of it is shocking and that's for two adults who have the knowledge and time to bother, I dread to think what larger households with more pressures and less recycling availability are getting through

On the subject of AI and tech, it is very annoying hearing a goal at the Emirates and having to wait half a minute for it to appear on t'internet 😂
It wouldn't take a person a whole 30 seconds to write 'goal' and press send!

Well my masked singer guess was completely off for Sloth and correct for Can of Worms but only because I thought Mo Gilligan was right.
How did you get on @Sun_Addict?
No idea on the remaining contestants

I really thought sloth was Joe Wicks so that was a complete surprise. I didn’t guess can of worms but could tell it was a professional singer. I will confess to getting up and dancing to Cha Cha Slide as that’s one of the routines from my Zumba class 🤣🤣
I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3 -
what a shame PIP. Would it help if there was a ban on goals at that stadium? Just a kind thought to help reduce goal related stress 🤔

I was going for Matt Hanc*ck or Ed Balls for Sloth @Sun_Addict as there were so many parliamentary clues but I knew neither was quite right, especially considering the gusto with which the contestant kept throwing themselves on the floor!
That won't really work for me but thank you @Blackcats and I really appreciate your team instigating that policy at our stadium last week x

Usuals
Half wussy situps
Bit of flat clean
Free exercise of steps taking cat feeder to tip and going for Sunday beer with Mr PIP (with camra discount)
We were going to have leftovers out of the freezer but Mr PIP made the error of mentioning cheesy mash and beans and I could think of nothing else so we shamefacedly paid full price for a bag of spuds on the way home. I am willing to accept this extravagance
Ha, managed to paste on second attempt by trying to time when the godawful autosave was about to happen and thwarting it. F*ck me this is the worst 'upgrade' I have ever seen (love you MSE)

Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!2 -
in terms of re using plastics, I recently became aware that a local community centre is grateful for take away containers to package up left overs from when they host meals
