What does it seem nuts now that we used to do?

Listening to Snooker Loopy on the radio (RIP John Virgo) and it struck me buying novelty records was so mad. You listened to it maybe once and went ‘lol’ (or whatever we said back then) then it went onto a shelf to gather dust. You had basically paid for a meme. What else seems a bit nuts (in a charming way) in retrospect? submitted by /u/OpenCantaloupe4790 to r/AskUK [link] [comments]

I’ve (39F) recently separated from my husband (41M) and have moved out of the family home. This was my choice after years of deliberation and preparation and he has taken it catastrophically badly. One of the consequences is that he has chosen to cut all ties with our 11yo daughter. I won’t go into it here, but the primary reason is that it would be too difficult for him to take care of her without being married to me. Anyway, there’s other subs for that conversation and I want to keep this about the practical side of things. As I now have full custody, I’m struggling to work out how to manage this with working full time. I work in London 3 x a week with a 1.5hr commute each way (when the trains are running on time) and I have 23 days holiday remaining. I’ve already had to take 5 this year due to the house move last week, which I had to do mostly solo with some flatpack help from my dad as I was starting from scratch in a new house. 3
