Dear all,

It's my day of birth and I am, as they say "getting on a bit". In this thread, therefore, I will endeavour to impart old timey life advice or wisdom. I may also draw you something in MS Paint. On the other hand, I don't have much time to myself during the course of a day, so I can't promise expedient responses or vouch for the quality of my contributions.

Anyway, please do come on in. Take off your shoes (unless they're really cool shoes), take a seat (or hover around awkwardly clutching a drink). I'm putting the kettle on. PLEASE NO GIFTS. Thank you.

hey Uria I hope you have a super cool day.

Thank you very much, BYOB poster rear end-penny.

My piece of wisdom for you today is sartorial. Are you stumped for that little extra accessory? Look around at the everyday objects in your home. For example, an ordinary washing-up brush can become a fetching piece of jewelry if you put it on a chain around your neck.

Please help yourself to snacks!


Thank you for the winter sig, Heather Papps!

but I can't use my arms, so could you please pass me that sippy cup?

an enjoyable way to take advantage of your youth and relative freedom is to walk down the street while listening to your Discman. It's like having a sound-track to your life.

Thank you very much! Does it count to have chatted to her on Telegram Messenger? We didn’t chat about the birth as such, but we have covered that ground before.

Stumped for a name for your new pet? paint colour names can make for unique, whimsical pet names.

Better not eat the pretzels, apparently some of them are sentient.

Be sure to call your mother, if she's around and you're on speaking terms! She probably remembers it better than you do.

Happy birthday!

Do you have any advice on how to sweat less?

Thank you!

I don’t really know, as I suspect sweating might be partially genetic (e.g. I sweat a lot when I dance, but my friend doesn’t). However, one tip is to wash your armpits with a water/vinegar solution. Wear loose, light clothing. Avoid most synthetic fibres and silk.
Remember, sweating is natural and necessary and fresh sweat doesn’t really smell bad.

I'm not worried about the fresh sweat. It's very humid here.

Ugh, humidity is the worst. Well, the loose clothing at least and washing with water/vinegar in the morning. Otherwise, a heavy-duty antiperspirant (though I don’t like those) + carry around a fan.
