Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
I'm actually quite looking forward to the weather in a weird sort of way, it can be crazy hot here in the summer and crazy cold in the winter.
It's going to be weird because I miss lots of things...

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
I'm in Switzerland at the moment so all the paperwork with moving is all a bit of a faff and not particularly easy to navigate with not being linguistically gifted.

Re: TV programs you're watching?
I've been watching The Young Offenders on bbc3 recently. It's a bit hit and miss, there have been times I've spat my tea out laughing and times when it's just a bit meh.

Re: How much percent are you ginger?
Weasley level ginger, though with a few grey hairs too these days.

Re: TV programs you're watching?
Watched the first two episodes of Dahmer yesterday on the basis of it being in the "most watched" bit in Netflix. Probably going to have nightmares now for the next few years.
