It began quietly. A laptop here, a flat white there, a lone worker hiding in the corner of a pub at 11am trying to escape the chaos of their shared house.

For years, Boomers have been gently mocked by younger generations. Their habits, phrases, and unwavering loyalty to certain brands are easy targets for Gen Z and Millennials who prefer subscriptions, apps and “life hacks” that often require more admin than the task itself. But here’s the twist: many of the things Boomers still do —…

Every winter, Britain falls in love with a new trend: hygge, hot girl walks, air fryers, weighted blankets, you name it.
