I’m just one retired bloke from the UK so hardly representative, but my wife and I were planning a visit to New England next year which has now been binned for the foreseeable future. Canada is looking favourite at the moment.
I’ll make you watch Season 1 of DARK. You’ll also get popcorn, crisps and wine.
Cynic that I am, I expect the book sellers to leave the prices unchanged whilst they pocket the VAT savings.
Fried bread!
Sync on my phone and any old browser on the PC.
Of course! You leap out of bed and stagger around the room whilst shouting, “Oh, god! Oh, christ! Arrgh!” The cramp eases off in as little as 5 minutes’ time.
Chronically, kidney stones followed by gall bladder stones. Acutely, cramp anywhere in the leg.
At the end of the day, it gets dark.
Either my council tax or my utility bills.

Well done on that semi-colon: really pushing my buttons!
Abberant apostrophes (and missing ones).
Sentences that miss out words for no reason: e.g. “A couple things” vs. “A couple of things”.

Also, what a wonderful hotel! I’d recommend it in a heartbeat.
I love Bobby Fingers!
I’d throw some money at the ‘free’ ones if I could afford to.
New York City. Stayed one night before flying home and discovered it was noisy, smelly, crowded, dirty, expensive and generally horrible.
My old town, East Grinstead, finally famous for something unrelated to Scientology!
