Honestly, hinges FILL me with rage. WHY do zero protrusion at 90 degree full overlay hinges not exist?! Had to smash these glued drawers apart and build out the runners to get the clearance. 😪 #diy #bespokecabinetry #builtinwardrobes

Replying to @AldiUK
@AldiUK a question that crossed my mind earlier today after seeing someone put a Bluey toy from the middle aisle in the food bank at the exit.. what actually happens to everything that doesn’t get sold? Do you donate it? Do you sell it on at discount? Do they go in the bin?

Genuinely interested in this as @AldiUK seems like the type of store that would donate household items, toys etc to homeless/less fortunate, well at least I’d hope that’s what happens

I think if all supermarkets donated anything they didn’t sell to homeless shelters and food banks then we could pretty much solve a lot of societal issues . Surely it can’t all be about the money and their bottom line all day every day? Maybe I’m just an optimist

Can we normalise not sending kids to childcare settings when they’re ill please. I’m sick of being sick every damn week with a new illness my son’s picked up from others (and yes I’m being hypocritical as I’m also sending him back in while he’s ill, otherwise he’d never go!) 😅😫

Fully support this, know of & heard of so many suicides while at Uni. It’s truly heartbreaking! – at East, England

Please write to your MP urgently to support a legal duty of care for our Uni kids. Being the last to know of a mental health crisis can prove FATAL for your child. Where a parent would step in there is a VOID #ForThe100 @Caroline_Ansell theguardian.com/education/20…

It does make me laugh when kids toys, that are made of 100% plastic and non-renewable/recyclable materials advertise as “with plastic-free packaging”… think you’re missing the point there.. #greenwashing – at East, England
