Anyone from the UK?

Social media is a lot of the problem. It can be so toxic in society. Hence why I deleted my accounts years ago.... Apart from this platform

It's irresponsible social media that is the problem that was basically fulled by miss guided decisions and lies Facebook and others used to be a force for good but now I just love my block and hide button.

Almost certainly - get the feeling that's going to be true for much of the UK by this evening.. :S

I did similar, then created an essentially empty one for facebook marketplace. I added a picture, thinking 'well, some people may look at this blank profile and think I'm a psycho'.

As a result I now have various friends and relatives adding me (damn facebook and their 'people you may know..' creepiness) and I'm studiously refusing to accept any of them as I'm truly just there for the shopping But now the risk is that people think I'm dissing them or being aloof; a total minefield!

Afternoon all. It's dragging in today. Promises of replies have not materialised so I am moving on from caring. I'll stick to the folks that show an interest. Fair? I think so.

I've been to Seattle itself a few times but I don't know about the cake shop. I'll ask @SassySheDevil about it when she wakes up. I like visiting the piers and Pikes Place market.

Flew over the Seattle Tower on Tuesday at 4,000ft. Such a beautiful day and it was a good view. Would never go up the tower again though. Seventy dollars just to get on the lift and when you get up there, they've removed all the things you could previously do up there. So all there is to do is look through the glass floor and take photos.

However I'm about an hour outside Seattle so I'm not bothered about going back. I'm enjoying just relaxing with Sassy and her family.

It has been many years since i have been there. Loved it, it's such a nice city (apart from walking up the hills). Had a few friends there too, but most moved to Portland.

Have fun, Wonks. Enjoy the view of the Cascades and Puget Sound. Wave to Mt Rainier for me.

ahhh, it's in Fremont @AWonkyDonkey ... Simply Desserts in Fremont. Always got that part of Seattle mixed up. Used to go there, then go see the Troll under the bridge.

I'm about to make spag bol for the fam, including leftovers for over the weekend. Wife's going to be away so I might ditch the healthier stuff and get some sausages in. They're like contraband in this household at the moment.
