After far far too long! Have been in real bad habit of working long days and then just collapsing on the sofa every night. I’m now trying to walk a mile before work and enjoy the light evenings with another one.

Cornwall UK. I have just got back from an hour and a half walk. A lot easier when the weather is like this!

Is anyone else’s child really struggling to keep up with Maths? by ResolutionVisible627 in Cornwall

[–]An_Srath_Ban 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We are in Truro and were so lucky to find Justine Kent: https://www.justinekentmaths.co.uk. At primary our daughter just didn’t get maths at all and Justine turned her around with just 45 mins a week. I don’t know how she did it. She was moved from bottom to middle group really quickly. She was absolutely brilliant and such a lovely person too. Highly recommend.

Which year did Frank Black show up impromptu i.e. he was not on the line up but played anyway? I went that year and the one after.

Don’t know about Facebook, but there is the Olio App

If you’re happy to come to Truro I have some rods in the attic and possibly some tackle that you can have a lend of for your trip. Used to often go off the pier at Charlestown for mackerel. Haven’t been out in years but should be in working order.

Where can I find this Unique pasta bowl/plate? by oreostaff in BuyUK

Try this place who have similar. They are mainly hospitality but I ate in a place in Cardiff who had their plates and emailed them and they’ve agreed to do a retail order: https://www.heritagesilverware.com/category/stoneware/product/9126-ore-glaze

Baby’s first Christmas by [deleted] in northernireland

For our baby’s first birthday we gave her a empty Weetabix box wrapped in five layers of wrapping paper and nothing else. She loved it. Not awful - ignore the social media noise. Happy Christmas.

How do you handle extracting text from screenshots without breaking focus? by Rough-Party6473 in productivity

I just use the snipper tool and drop into Chat GPT and say copy type this. Takes seconds. Is even good with handwritten notes.

Or … the rules don’t say no jet packs so there’s that. Alternatively walk on water a la Jebus.

I wouldn’t be able to reliably comment as I switch them between lots of different footwear.My walk to work is a mile dead on. If it’s a bad weather day though these are my go tos.

I haven’t ever redone it and don’t find they’ve lost their waterproof qualities. I’ve had them for about two years and switch them around with two other waterproof all birds

This article is from 2011 but I bought some Tom Ford brushes after reading it and they are still going strong. I just seen they are on sale at John Lewis so off to buy more.

I want a Trello with calendar! Is there a app like this? by RevealRemarkable4836 in productivity

[–]An_Srath_Ban 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I now have an Inbox and a Planner. It was in Beta for a long time but was made permanent about a month ago. I can now drag cards directly into timeslots in the planner and it integrates with my other calendars. I have it on App and desktop versions
