@AK_Bell Sounds horrific.
After a tough couple of years for her, hearing laughter coming from my (14yr old next week!) daughter's room is heartwarming.

Well I really enjoyed the first two episodes of Willow. Aimed at a young-ish audience but that’s as it should be, I loved Willow as a kid. Lots of charm to it.

@AK_Bell The original Stark family motto.
Could be a coincidence but I've just played a few unranked matches of OW2 and the team balance in terms of skill feels waaaaay off.
@mattthr Annoying. I did the order of things 'wrong' in an early area in a castle so couldn't save some lady therefore that quest line was just not completable. There was no way of knowing this beforehand.

@mattthr The game was just a bit too big for me in the end. I enjoyed it, I never thought I could play a Souls game but I think after 94hrs or so I'd had my fill and frustration.

I know certain people would froth at the mouth about it, but I'd love at least a basic quest log/map that gave you some guidance, even if it was for a cost. Then the biggie, a difficulty slider. I would still have gotten enjoyment out of it if it took me only 10 attempts at certain bosses rather than dozens.

@_Jackalope_ My friends and I agreed that if we had to do dating at our age now we'd be fucked. Sounds horrible.
@cyber_shep Haha yes I'm here to dispel the myth that vegetarians are healthy. I eat very few vegetables 😂

For anyone that cares, I've only been vegetarian for 3 years. People can eat what they like, I'm never seeking to change anyone's mind on it, as a species we're omnivores and that's never going to change.

I think the range of meat substitutes these days is great. I've always been a picky eater so was already eating Quorn and similar foods before I decided to cut out anything that requires an animal to die.

The thing that finally convinced me was a video shared on Facebook of a cow drinking from a bucket of milk and being silly with it. It was behaving like a dog and I was like yeah, I already don't eat much meat anyway so I may as well.

I am dairy intolerant too but wouldn't go for veganism as I don't want to give up eggs. For what it's worth I get my eggs from a colleague that looks after rescued battery hens so I know they're well looked after. But I do eat other things that contain eggs, eat them when I'm out etc so I'm not claiming any moral high ground there.
