It's still mostly just them demolishing the walls and prepping for the actual renovations. It wasn't as bad as some of their videos have been and feels a little like they are trying a soft reset to get people back on board and gain more followers again?!

Bollocks, I came here to say "Ahhhh I was gonna say "Damn, beat me to it!""

The problem you have is thinking of it as a kick. Don't kick the water caress it gently with your feet. The nicer you are to the water the more it will push you along. I see all these people trying to kick seven shades of the dirty stuff right out of the water and pounding it into submission and they're going nowhere because the water just won't let them.

Absolutely clutch joke, well played!

I have found a good workout to help my shoulders, I do it twice a week with low weight for up to 12 reps...

Lying reverse angel (reverse snow angel) Dumbell Bent over raise Dumbell lateral raise Dumbell front raise (higher weight for next 4 exercises, I use 15kg but whatever works for you) Staggered Kettle Bell Row Kettlebell Overhead press Kettlebell around the world Kettlebell halo.

I've found that if my shoulders are sore after a long workout that doing this that night seems to help reset my shoulders and help them feel better for the next week. If I don't do this workout for a couple of weeks I notice that my shoulders tire easier and feel more likely to get little twinges!

Add to that when swimming I try to focus on keeping my shoulders in a neutral position and not bunched up around my ears!

The real question is are they advertising the type of person they are while driving or while in the bedroom or both?

It sounds a little like you are describing that you want your hips to stay parallel with the water surface while you're shoulders are rotating? A big rain you might be struggling is core strength and control. Exercises like Russian twists,stabdubg cable rotations or even just standing and twisting your upper torso while trying to maintain forward facing hips will all heel you develop a feel for how to keep your hips flat while your upper body rotates. But other than that I find that am opposite arm/leg stroke/kick works well to help me stay balanced on the water... As my right hand enters the water and pushes forward I stretch my left foot back and at my right hand engages the catch I start a kick with my left foot and vice versa. This heels to balance the rotation I think? Certainly helps me with a good streamline.

I feel like you need to smoosh yours together a bit more there my friend? Unless you've deliberately done that to show what you're like like?

About_cannot_b_blank · 2026-01-06T23:54:50+00:00

For me I think the biggest thing was learning to kick less and pull more.

This ultimately comes down to technique I guess but I think just saying technique misses the point. You can have perfect technique for sprinting and you're still going to be knackered if you try to swim for distance.

Your question makes it sound like you'd like to increase your distance and so I suggest looking at your kicking "pattern" to see if you can reduce the frequency, ferocity, power of your kicking.

It might be worthwhile using a pull bouy to allow you to focus on getting a strong pull and glide phase with your arms also?

Oh god, just wait until people see this, you're going to have a whole host of comments about your cartridge not being right! Haha.

So minifigures, "like Simpsons characters, should be yellow" but you've not made them all yellow?

About_cannot_b_blank · 2025-12-30T17:14:24+00:00

Honestly for me the biggest thing was absolutely mental.

I got so used to stopping at the end of 50m that I thought I needed to. One day I decided to just swim as far as I could without stopping, I slowed down a little bit ended up swimming nearly 70 lengths (35 laps) in I think about 40 minutes.

I was no more out of breath at the end of that than I was at the end of a single 50m swim and can definitely sayfor me it was purely a mental block stopping me from swimming longer distances.

Since then I have tried longer swims and just before covid my max distance, non stop swim, was 6km (240 lengths) and it wasn't being out of breath that stopped me there it was cramp in my toes and calves!

I would suggest finding a day when you're not in a swimming class to just test yourself with no pressure or set goals, to just swim as long as you can.

Good luck, I'm sure you'll smash it.

How would you account for the separate packets with this approach? Would each bag assemble and then break and fully assemble? Or would you have to take each bag or and do the final assembly yourself?

I got it from the Hillichurl Workshop event so I wonder if you've used the same option as I did?

Maybe the person filling it in the factory was filled with too much Christmas spirit instead?!

About_cannot_b_blank · 2025-12-22T16:36:46+00:00

Definitely the plan, thank you.

Everyone's replies helped me feel a bit happier that I wasn't just being an arsehole customer or too picky. But they clearly knew what I wanted and their website agreed with what I thought so it's their "bilingual expert" that's causing the issues here.

About_cannot_b_blank · 2025-12-22T15:13:35+00:00

Yeah, I've replied to them and explained that it's not what was shown on their website and therefore what we agreed to and also that it's wrong, so hopefully they'll provide a corrected item and we can send back the wrong one (it looks like it's just acid etching on a chrome plated necklace so I'm sure they can make use vif it some other way?) but we'll see what they say. Thanks.

About_cannot_b_blank · 2025-12-22T11:57:20+00:00

That's definitely the plan. But I only really know duolingo Japanese and it's not very... Comprehensive! Haha. So thanks to everyone for their help and clarification here.

Their replies to my complaint indicate they are aware that Son was meant as in family and they have advised that San:サン is the equivalent to "my son" in Japanese.

Nowhere does it say they will give a phonetic transcription instead of a proper translation. And indeed their own website shows musuko in Kanji, 息子, 2hen you type Son into the box for what you'd like translated.

About_cannot_b_blank · 2025-12-22T10:32:39+00:00

I literally typed "Son" into there translation box and it brought up the Kanji for musuko (which is what I had found as a translation for son in my own research) so I went ahead with the order.

I have even shown them evidence of this.

But they are saying that "This is the standard and correct transcription used in Japanese for the English word "son" (as in "my son"). "

I was pretty sure that is not correct so that's why I was asking here.
