Suggestions on how to discipline a ten year old son who put a dandelion in my bum crack while putting on my walking boots please.

Dandelion for scale.

Every day on my lunch break I get a can of Vienna sausages (usually smoked so I don't have to rinse my hands afterwards). I've eaten hundreds of cans of these sausages and have never been blessed by the sausage gods until today.

Behold an extra tiny Vienna.

My wife and I moved about a year and a half ago and ever since then we have been perplexed by this wet spot on the road. It is there every single day but varies in size. It always starts in the same spot and trickles off to the shoulder and never has any sort of stream. Just wet. Hasn’t rained in 15 days and the mighty wet spot stands strong. Banana for scale

EDIT: Thank you all so much for the hilarious comments, I didn’t expect this to blow up as much as it has. It’s given me a good laugh!

Part time lurker here. Accused by my wife of hoarding but raised poor and believing I understand the value of things. She consumes a 12pk of sodas a day. I collect cans for melt value and homemade trinkets. Needless to say that I was raised to waste not, want not. I might give up collecting cans if she gives up throwing away so much money. The bananas are being outnumbered.

Last night we tried the Crunchie bar. (Backgroud first: I am American, I have never tried or heard of Crunchie, we do not have Crunchie here)

In the US this is called sponge candy or angel food candy. I generally only see it in stores around the holidays. Crunchie is very good. It is lighter than the honeycomb candy we have so much less teeth shattering. I think this is my new number one.

I've recently discovered that I have a natural talent for art. Not bad for over 50, never been good at art previously. A great time waster and looking for advice from established artists on whether I should swap my high flying corporate career for a more rewarding hobby. They say if you do what you love you will never work a day in your life. Here is my latest effort called "Feline Fine".....be nice

My dad is 85, a widower and likes pringles. Not enough to buy the name brand and not enough to eat an entire tube in one sitting. Don’t know how, but he lost the lid to his off brand pringles.
Not to be deterred, and to keep his
remaining “pringles” somewhat fresh,
he improvised with the lid shown in the
image. You will note two things. 1. The
lid is a perfect fit. 2. My father may not cough up for proper Pringles but he will spring for name brand skin cream. It’s probably a left over from before my mum died, but nonetheless it’s ingenious. For those still interested, I did not go searching for the lidless skin cream. I’ll leave that until my next visit. I did not taste the “ Pringles” so I’m not sure if they were stale or if they now taste like skin cream. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I enjoy the surprise and disgust some people here have when confronted with traditional British dishes, especially those from the USA. For your consideration I made a Bread and Butter pudding. Can't decide to have some before or after the Panto we're going to tonight.
