I’m such a child. All the neighbours see which bin I put out on bin day as I’m the first up and about so I took the brown bin out, waited while they all took their brown bins out and went to work then I sneaked ours back in and put the proper green bin out. Psychological warfare.

You southern folk regarding dinner/supper/ lunch whatever. We had Dinner Ladies at school not Lunch Ladies. Now let that be the end of it. While I’m on one, supper isn’t a meal it’s two of those biscuits with cows on them and a glass of milk and you only get that if you’re good.
