Hope this helps Lauren:
Turn off and unplug your washing machine.
Locate your machine’s filter and remove it.
Soak the filter in warm soapy water for 10 minutes.
Scrub the filter with a soft-bristled brush.
Check the filter area for any remaining lint and wipe with a damp cloth.
If the filter cannot be removed, clean it out with a brush.
Some filters are disposable, so instead of cleaning them you can just throw them away and put a new one in place.
Return the clean filter to the machine.
Hey presto!! x
Agree with you about people who talk about how 'generous' they are - good qualities should be self evident so stressing then is always suspect. .... My granny had an old saying, 'The more he spoke of his honour, the faster we hid the silverware'.
Absolutely love that saying - so true!😂
god I bloody love that silverware saying!
It can also be a cultural thing, i feel americans are generally much more open about talking about money, maybe even talking about their "generosity endeavours" etc. British ppl are usually much more closed up about things like that and are afraid of coming off as anything less than humble/not boasting! Just another possibility in case he wasnt as bad as he seems...
Not asking one question is a huge 🚩
Honestly, Lauren, I’d probably have done the same thing and kicked myself for it. You looked cute and you had a good burger. Every bad date is one step closer to the next good date.
That is SO true. Thank you x
"If i hadn't have gone, I wouldn't have known how good the burger was" .......amazing haha
Hahaha! I stand by that!
A one-sided convo like that is literally just being a sound board. You are sooooo fascinating and unique, I don't get why somebody wouldn't want to ask you lots of questions and know all of your quirks. You def deserve better. ❤
As a man , I'd have paid on the first date. Yes, I know it's 2023. However, I was raised that as the man you treat the woman, especially on a first date. Later on you treat each other, but on a first date the man treats the woman. Ill probably get called a sexist pig now 😂😅 you had a lucky escape! Noone needs a tight ass.
Yeah..i feel the same way but also feel the woman should offer to at least pay a half and be really thankful if the man treats her
As a woman I’d judge a man if he didn’t pay on first date. I’m happy to pay for dinner too when dating but the 1st date can say a lot about a man if he doesn’t take charge, it’s just decency. A real man would feel emasculated if the woman paid.
I agree with you. Nice to see there are still some gentleman left in the world.
No your are a decent man , not a sexist pig .😅
What a bunmer about your date. That guy doesn't deserve a second date.
You were absolutely GLOWING in that post date clip. What a stunning woman. 🖤
Thank you so much xx He is already blocked!
That's the joy of living alone Lauren you can do whatever you please, your studio is looking more organized ❤❤
Hi Lauren, i haven’t been on a date for 16 years!! But I remember I always ate before going on first dates as drinks take less time to get through than a meal. if it was going terrible I could leave after a drink. Also the awkwardness of ordering and eating a meal in front of a new person always freaked me out 😂
I normally always do this! Especially on first dates but he threw me off!! So annoying!
I’d probably have done the same and would have been annoyed the rest of the evening. But at least the burger was good! I’m jealous 🍔 Well done for keeping trying!
Thank you so much Emma x
Hey Lauren! Don't worry about talking about "nothing" on the video :) We will still love it, because we love YOU. Looking at your videos always makes me miss you and then I have to rewatch all the old vlogs again for the whole day. You are my internet comfort-person :) So sad we have never met irl ;) I'd be your bestie, lol. #notastalker
Aww thank you so much x
I love your vlogs Lauren, even when u “only talk about nothing “as you said 😃 honestly just never stop vlogging! 🙏 maybe only my life is boring but I cant wait for Sundays because of your vlogs 🤷♀️😀😘🌹
Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, Me too , so if your boring I must be too ,I Just Love Lauren's vlogs 👍
His phone dying would have been my out. “Oh, no problem, this has been fun. I enjoyed the drinks and conversation . Call me , we can have dinner another time.” You are too good of a catch to pay for your own burger. I really enjoy your drives. I like seeing what it looks like, across the pond.😊
Thank you so much! More drives to come x
Just recently found your channel Lauren you’re so funny 🤣 🤣 you really cheer me up xx I’m on a break from my long term partner so bit up and down atvthe moment you’re such a relatable person I love your personality you would be great in a sit com 🤣🤣❤❤
Please, bring back Let's guess the weather, oh, and Kitchen in a cupboard too 😉
Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, Kitchen in a cupboard, kitchen in a cupboard, kitchen in a cupboard yeah ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂, Love it !! Take care ❤
@@richardfinney5081💃💃💃😂
Watch your poor wee eyes with the Paula’s choice! 😮 great video as always 😊
Thank you for sharing yet another slice of your life! A few years back, I met a guy (come to think of it, he was also American...) at a Meet Up polyglot gathering. I didn't fancy him but figured he was nice and since he was a tourist, we went on a stroll around the city together a few days later, and then he suggested we'd go out for drinks the next evening. Drinks were nice and it was time to go home, and when we said goodbye, he grabbed my waist, pulling me closer to him and tried to kiss me. I pulled back laughing (which was, of course, a defense mechanism) and said NO while giggling. By the time I got to my car I was sick to my stomach 😢 and it was a while until I managed to shake off that nasty feeling.
I guess the guy you went out with was so self centered that he didn't even bother to read you and understand you weren't into him. Of course, there's the possibility that both those guys were shitheads 😂
I love your sleep stories. Im used to listening to my 21 yr old daughter tell me hers everyday 😂😂
I just finished this, unless there is a big spark (potential friendship or relationship) I wouldn’t eat on the first date too much expense for no return, you can move on to eat if you both agree in a good way. The payment was sus just say don’t worry I’ll pay for mine if they pull shi like that. But in the moment a decent or unsuspecting heart can fall for shi so don’t beat yourself up take it as a lesson
Tee hee..you could have said to the bar tender " just box it up please as I'm taking it home with me" and then to the guy " bye now "
Ain't hindsight a great thing
Kxx
Lolllllll imagine!
You’re too good for that guy and people who don’t ask any questions about you are just self obsessed you had a lucky escape you need to kiss a few frogs before you meet your prince !! He sounded like a bit of a chancer xx❤
For quite a few years now thats one of my main red flags to watch out for...Someone who doesnt ask questions means they're not interested in getting to know you - so why the hell are they even going on a date with you?!Its a huge NO from me. And it suggests the person is self-centered, maybe even a narcissist and probably isn't a very empathetic person which would be, in my opinion, one of the main traits to look for in someone if you're out there dating! Also, ppl need to be really careful with meeting ppl on those online dating apps, I watch quite a bit of true crime and the horrid stories of ppl who fall victim to psychopaths who prowl those apps...Just everyone needs to be really careful (or, in my view, ppl should preferably try to meet others LIVE in other ways/contexts...ex through friends, through activities/hobbies, through community events, etc Of course you have to be equally careful but I would think its generally safer!)
You are so real , it’s great x
Thank you so much Tanya x
Oh, a great storry !!!!
I would look in his face ,in the eyes and say: i've noticed you have switched off you phone !
Smiled and keep staring
Oh...the joy...haha
Hope things pink up for you, you are lovely
Greetings from croatia!
Croatia! Wow I would love to visit!
@@LiveitlikeLauren you are always welcome !!!! 🩵
Oh Lauren!!! You poor thing but thank god for your amazing sense of humour! Sadly your crap date is very relatable… I think we all have some (or several) crap/bizarre/creepy/horrible dates in our memory bank (especially those of us who dated in our 30s onwards - when the dating pool is getting pretty grim) 😅❤ Nothing worse than a crap date that has wasted your time and energy and on top of that your money (bet you wish you could send him an invoice for his burger and lemonade 😂) !!! You deserve to date only the best… people who are worthy of your presence and attention! ❤️ Wishing you only fun and engaging dates ahead with people with fully charged phones 😂 Lots of love to you from Australia xx
Thank you so so much beautiful xxx Love from London x
Fab vlog Lauren. So real to life. Sunday enjoyment xxxxx
Thanks so much 😊
I would have been a people pleaser as well, id have paid for the bill without question. I think its really the only thing you could have done in that situation. I would have been too embarrassed to enquire about other payment options. Its only afterwards when you start questioning things.
Me too ... only thing you could have done Lauren. I hate it when i question n get angry at myself after a situation or think I should have said x y z!! People pleasing but also i thiink its to not make the situation awkward and any more uncomfortable for ourselves!
New to your channel from North Carolina… love your videos! I especially like the drives and the shopping! I’ve never been to the UK so it’s fun to get to see it from your perspective. ❤❤
Thank you so so so much xx
Love watching your shopping shenanigans and heading your dating stories. ❤x
Glad you like them! ❤️
When that coffee fell :O I had a heartattack lol. Thank god it didn't spill or i'd have had to go back for another one lol
It was a close shave!
it sure was! 🤣@@LiveitlikeLauren
Love you Lauren 😍 💗 Take care of you 😘
Have watched a few of your vlogs over the last couple of days and I have to subscribe as you are a breath of fresh air to watch. I think I will live vicariously through you as I’m almost house bound due to mobility issues. P.S. you mama is awesome so you can see where you get it from.
Thank you so much x I am so glad you can get that from my videos x
Love the realness and unfiltered vlogs you make, your funny too ! (Would love more plant content..)🌱😊🍃⚡️🕺🏻
More to come! xxx
@@LiveitlikeLauren Yeay ! 🕺🏻
Lucky escape, Lauren! I would’ve paid too! Have a great week! Laura ❤❤❤
Right?! xx
I would of paid too because im weeeeak and hate awkward situations. Big hugs lovely lady! Love your vlogs ❤
totaly stunning!!!
I just love that you have so many great girlfriends! I have never had that ever and I feel like I’m a great friend to have 😅! I enjoy the time spent with you so much ❤ thank you for sharing your day!! Xx
As you drove off I was saying “seatbelt...seatbelt...” and you say “strap in Lauren” 😂 You are my kind of people! Love watching with my cuppa. You have such a great sense of humour 🤣 By the way, I would have just paid too - then thought sod off at least I got a decent burger 🤣
You're the best! Burger was worth it x
Would absolutely have said “no bother….. maybe another time! Nunite” lol x
Hi, just discovered you! 😊 you make me laugh so much……..we’ve all poked ourselves in the eye, blooming mascara 😂 I probably would have paid for the food too, you live and learn 🤷♀️ I’m an old lady now ha ha so datings a whole new ball game these days, in my day the man always paid, if he was a gentleman! Good luck next time 🤞xx
New from NY , starting this series from the beginning. Going to have breakfast for dinner tonight 😊
You made me laugh, thank you. Your videos are always a highlight of my day.
And I i would have probably done the same as you with the paying of the burgers, but be mad at myself for it.
I love your videos so much! 🩷
Thank you so much xx
Hey girl! For the hair, I can relate. Mine is very long to my waist, and gets everywhere. In the wash Ive found theres nothing really I can do, aside from inspecting the clothes for hairs before putting it in the washer. But i still pull hair off afterwards so theres that.
For the fuzzies, try washing the clothes inside out. I find it helps with that. And just try not to was any sweaters or towels on the same load as "regular" clothes if possible. Good luck!
Even if his phone had died then you go on a date prepared. And if he talks about being generous then you know for sure that he’s a miser! He left you in an awkward position and doesn’t deserve any nice dates. Just put it down to experience. You were the better person ! xx
Thank you so much x
you have the most flawless skin! xxx
Thank you!! I am very lucky x
I would have done the same Lauren, I would feel a bit embarrassed to make a big thing of it. Oh well at least he had shown you what kind of a person he was, and you don’t have to waste your time any further with him, you deserve better x
Yeah! First and last date!
Hey lovely 😍 yeah i would of paid for everything as well,and then I'd be really wired 😂just obviously are nature but u live and learn,good to see u again ur so real n honest lauren that's why we all love you 😍 xx
Omg kitties are so cute! We have a tuxedo cat too with the black nose and it looks like a *T* we say for TROUBLE 😂
Awwww sooo cute!
Banan..haha! That's the Swedish word for the fruit and you nailed the pronunciation as well. Impressed! 😂
Wow I’m multilingual!
Definitely not cringing because you're eating in bed. I have a hot plate that I use to sometimes cook from my bed.😊
I would have done the same and bought the burgers to ease the situation (fellow pleaser) I'd have been tempted to pinch his burger after discovering they were particularly nice burgers 😅 have a nice week Lauren take care xx
I should have eaten his burger too!
Aww🥺 Lauren… yeah I would have done exactly the same 😢 people pleaser 🙋🏼♀️🙆🏼♀️x x x much love 💕
Great editing, Lauren. I would of paid and explained he has deprived my local homeless chap outside Co-op, his daily Food and beverage.
My husband still thinks it's hilarious when we wake up and I sing "Let's guess the weathaaa let's guessss the weathaaaaa" in my best British accent!!! 😅 Also, when you say "voucher" that is the same thing as a "coupon", yes? I was befuddled for a minute and then I was like ohhhh! I bet that's what it is!!! I rage cut my hair off in the middle of the night in March and it's just now long enough to where I can put it on the top of my head. I immediately regretted cutting it so short that I couldn't pull it up!!! Better now, though. And it was always a trigger for me on dates on in any situation where anyone would talk themselves up. Like, if you're great, I'll figure it out on my own, thanks! My husband never talked himself up when we first got together, I think that's why I fell for him so fast!!!
A voucher is a giftcard!! We would also say coupon I think. But coupons aren’t really a thing here! I love that you sing let’s guess the weather in a British accent! You need to send me a voice clip!
Thank you! I live in Libya and miss B & M so much!!! I get to live vicariously 😅
Hey Lauren!
Haven't finished the video yet but with the hair in the clothes washing,
I try to hang my clothes outside when possible I don't know if you can.
Also you can get these sticky round things that go in the wash and they collect lint/hair/pet hair etc. The ones I got have a paw print on them.just google pet hair remover for laundry.
I also shed like a beast and the husband finds my hair everywhere hahah. And I try to vacuum more but that's a struggle too.
Thanks for sharing!! I will get them. My hair is EVERYWHERE!
Sometimes the barkeeper or the restaurant has Chargers. But honestly such a weird guy. You deserve way better than that.
Agreed!
You are funny x washing everywhere😍😍
Lol thank you xx
You should've just told him to piss off, bought yourself a burger and left 😂
What an entertaining blog. To be honest I would have done exactly what you did and bought the friggin meal.. then kicked myself afterwards. Lesson for us all there. Stop, think and THEN speak xx
Why do I get the feeling he’s used that trick before? I would have simply said “Oh no worries, let’s just stick with a second drink. I’ve got leftovers at home.” That’s only if I was not getting amazing vibes. If I felt in my gut it was genuine and we would be seeing each other again so he could return the favour, no problem. But if your gut was questioning it, play the game and get out 😂 xx
Excellent response!!!! I WISH I had said that!
Haha! I did laundry too amd was wondering if over the pond you say Laundry or Wash?? Hahaha You are mt spirit animal!!! 😂
😁 We don't saw laundry, we say "put a wash on" Hahah
Omg omg omg I'm totally fan Girling right now!! Thank you for the reply back!! You just rocked my world!!
I say "Let's guess the weather in your voice every morning"!!! 😂
I love thissss x
What kind of a guy invites you to a restaurant in Richmond and conveniently forgets his card and no phone battery!? I’ve had a couple of these dates with skin flints, you deserve much more than that Lauren! I would of cut the date short but it’s a difficult one 😏 x
I really wish I had, but then I would never have know how delicious the burger was!
I do the same with my laundry hanging to dry 😅
❤ sounds like it was money well spent to find out date one that he’s not right for you. Better than date 7 😅
So true!!!
Yes, I would have done the same, but you deserve better. ❤
Thank you so much Tracey x
Hi lovely Lauren,don’t buy the story about the phone dying,probably a well rehearsed trick ! .Hindsight is a wonderful thing oh I should have done this or that but being put on the spot like that ,would have done the same as you ,felt angry with myself for being taken for a mug .Think beyond that ...there is always karma 😊 x
I loveeeee Sushi!! Banan lolol I laughed so hard when you said " I've never said that before in my life" lolol Dude, so funny😅 Kat calling the construction guy Haha you looked like you were playing piano at first while you folded your clothes to the music lol! You looked super cute for your date tho!!
Awww thank you. Washing piano lol
Love a long one (that's what she said 😂). Seriously, another great vlog Lauren. I could just smash a smartie mcflurry after watching this 😂❤
So about the burger, I probably would have done the same. I don’t even know if it’s a people pleasing thing (although I do suffer from the condition), but I just hate awkward moments. Also, it comes so sudden that you don’t even have time to think. That’s really annoying, but don’t beat yourself up. I guess this shows who the truly generous person is 😆 Also, I call that “I’m generous” thing the humble brag. It’s pretty irritating.
Totally agree! The biggest humble brag!
Hi im a new subscribet probablly to old but i enjoy your content reminds of my 30s living in the city enjoy these times x❤
If there isn't any flirtation at all and the vibes aren't good I'd probably have said; "great so maybe let's call it a night then. Let's maybe split dinner another time" (fully thinking there ain't gonna be another time LOL). Don't be so hard on yourself Lauren! In the moment dodging a kiss like that can really be difficult if you aren't at all expecting it - and that is more of a fail on his part! To misread you and the date like that, not a good look to go in for a kiss if it's AT ALL questionable to do so. Good for you for putting yourself out there though, at least you got the 10/10 burger out of it LOL
Thank you honey xx
I use this conditioner it lasted me 8 months ❤
Wow amazing!
Been waiting for your vid 😂 love you loads. Not going to lie we would be best friends if we knew each other, we are the same kinda lady ❤
You're the best!
I use hair catchers from Temu, fabulous
Ohhh thank you
I would have done exactly what you did and been upset at myself for doing it. Btw.. You look gorgeous at the end of the video 👌
Thank you so much!! xxx
hi just found your channel and completely love your vibe and sense of humour 😅 - so sorry if this is being repeated but why don’t you get a little bed table one of those ones that go over your legs? i used to live in a studio and had one x
Hiiiii welcome to the channel ❤️ I really need to get one of those trays!! You are the first to suggest it funnily enough 😂
Omg here she is! ❤❤❤
You looked amazing on your date and had a great burger BUT WTF he went for a kiss!?! Omg NO 😮💨 I love your videos ❤❤❤
I know right!!! Thank you Misty x
Hi Lauren! Love you!
You too!! xxxx
I’d always be the better person and buy food but it’s another story for the bank of Lauren date disasters 😂 that or always carry a charger and then be able to say “don’t you worry buddy, I’ve got a multi charger!”
HAHAH imagine me supplying him with a charger! Excellent!
@@LiveitlikeLauren having a power bank would also be good 🤣
I would have done the same thing, sadly.
Even though it didn't work out for you, I still enjoyed your dating story 😊 because I don't date I strangely enjoy hearing about other people's experiences. I truly wish you good luck next time and hey, the burger was a 10 so it wasn't all bad 😅❤
Thank you! 😊 xx Burger was so worth it x
Enjoyed the vlog as usual Lauren. Have a good week coming up lovely 🤗. The music you play around 33 mins, when you’re folding/putting your clothes away…. Can I ask what it is please? It sounds familiar to me,it’s so lovely…. A bit melancholy, which I love 😐 xx
Agreed! If you have to say the thing...you aren't the thing!
So true!!
I had a date with a guy like that. It was eons ago. I was so angry at him. When i got out of the car he asked for another date and i told him i couldn't afford him and slamed the door. Never saw him again. I was stupid to fall for his trick.
Lauren!! I only tried marmite after moving to the UK last year and OMG…I love it! I always thought I’d hate it. I need to try this marmite peanut butter. Or is it your own concoction? 💜
They sell marmite peanut butter in most of the UK supermarkets. It is Marmite brand and looks similar to a regular jar of marmite. Just google it.
YAYY welcome to the club! It is a thing, they do smooth and crunchy. I love the crunchy
Yay! 🎉
Am I first?!
Your make up looks good
Thank you so much xxx
Can you do a kitchen in the cupboard soonish!?
Definitely!!
Lol at liking the burger more than the date! 🍔🤣 3 things: 1) not asking you a single question…I’m sorry, what? Why?? What did he think he was there for? For you to get to know him and him not to know anything about you?! 2) Bragging about being generous after making you pay the bill…BOY BYE! 3) no flanter?! Nail in the coffin mate! Hopefully the next date is better, you deserve a good one!
All of this is spot on!! BOY BYEEEE!
Omg i also call myself mrs trunchbull lol😂
Lauren I would've done exactly the same thing and bought the food; as we are good people. I can't believe your date didn't ask you one question. Sack him off and NEXT!! 😂❤ xxxx
Exactly!! NEXT!!!
I would’ve 100% paid for his food too in that moment, then massively regretted it later. I am also a people pleaser 😩🤣😂🤣😂
Reassuring that we all seem to have the exact same thoughts as we walk around b&m ❤️
Hahaha instant empty brain!
Hi Lauren 👋🏻 looking good 😍
Thank you!! 😊
Your eyes are stunning 😊
Oh thank you!
I probably would have done the same re pub grub but wouldn't do it again ❤
I think I would say oh that's ok I'll get my own. And if he asked could I get his I would say oh so sorry have a cash flow problem. You are better than that, but as you say good burger is a bonus ❤
Burger was worth it x
