If I didn't have any idea who it belonged to, or couldn't think of any way of getting it back to them, I'd have the currency converted and donate it to a charity shop.
Boring, I know.

I don't embarrass very easily but one moment in particular sticks out in my mind:
It was my first week at university (Freshers' Week) and I was out at a pub with some of my new-found friends (i.e. we were still virtually strangers). I hadn't been drinking very much at all, just a couple of pints. Suddenly, out of nowhere, I vomited all over my lap, the floor in front of me and a little on one of my friends (he never lets me live that down). I was mortified and I sat in stunned silence for a minute before I quickly made my way home to shower and change.
We laugh about it now - we all have crazy drunken moments at uni - but it was incredibly embarrassing at the time. I don't know why all these people are still friends with me.
Later that night, I went out and got drunk again on whisky. It was a good night.

There is certainly a place for numbers in certain stories, but I agree that it is usually unnecessary to be so explicit about dimensions. They don't really mean much to me and don't give me a great impression of how someone actually looks. I have never, in any of my stories, stated the length, size, height or weight of my character in numbers.
However, in the story I am writing just now, uncertainty about age is quite a central idea (both the youth of one character and 'maturity' of the other) so I have been using actual figures. I haven't found this detracts much from my descriptions.

I must be the only person here without a smartphone or an iphone.
You're not the only one. I'm resisting this particular technological revolution with all my might. My phone makes calls and sends texts, and it has a couple of very simple but very amusing games. It still has more functionality than I require.

Although the majority of my stories are not true, I do try to make them seem plausible because I like to imagine that it could really happen.
While I agree that some of the stories here are a little farfetched, so are some people's sex lives. It is not for me to say what could and could not happen in sexual reality, nor to deny anyone their wildest fantasies.
I can only conclude that the person who wrote this e-mail (I will hazard a guess at their being male) has a fairly boring sex life and little imagination.

I don't think there's much you can do. Stop being the saviour of their relationship (be a little selfish once in a while) but don't actively sabotage it. Be a friend to them both and hope that things work out for you. If they don't, then you move on and try to love again.
In the meantime, maybe give yourself some distance from the girls. Start dating again, hang out with other friends sometimes. Putting yourself constantly in that situation is only torturing yourself.
Best of luck to all three of you (and Becky as well, I guess). And for the sake of other Lushies, learn to use paragraphs.

Why do I need to charge this thing up every day? I am used to once a week charges with my work phone. Sure it does a lot, but once a day charging?
My sister's partner says she experiences the same thing because she is using it quite a lot while at work. Unfortunately, I think that's just how they are. You can get a small pack that plugs in at the bottom and gives it an extra couple of hours, you could look into that.
I'm the same, my crappy old phone lasts forever. Even when it says the battery is low, I can still get another day out of it.

I have written from a female perspective before and I think I pulled it off. However, I think I would struggle to do so in the first person. Obviously I can relate to a male point of view a lot better, so I write better like that.
At times I have read a story and then been pleasantly surprised to find that the author was of the opposite gender of the main character. Some writers do it very well. I agree with MoW, you shouldn't be thinking about the writer when reading.

It feels, to me, more natural to write in the past tense with present participles mixed in i.e. 'Her hand came to rest on my thigh, lingering for just a moment.' This, I imagine, is how most people write without thinking too much about tenses and the like.
I recently wrote a story completely in the present tense and, although I think it turned out really well, it took a lot of focus. It had the odd effect of making a first person narrative seem like a third person, sort of like an out-of-body experience where the character is describing the action as it happens, but about himself.
It depends on what you're trying to achieve with a particular piece of writing. I wanted it to be really 'in the moment' so I thought present tense might help with that. Different styles for different purposes.
