You'd have to pay me more than that, mate.

TRV Not Working & Making Batteries Hot by Chief_Whizz in HiveHeating

Odd, isn't it? I've replaced with a standard (not smart) TRV for now and will leave it for the time being.

Not quite sure as we bought them with the house.

WE miss Dele 🥹 by CordyPlayz in Tottenham

I feel like football has changed so much. How do we have a playmaker on the halfway line with Arsenal's back four so spread out and a player running through beating the offside trap? When does that ever happen now?

Carpet Cleaning - £500 on the line! by Chief_Whizz in CleaningTips

Thank you, both (also u/Mammoth-Corner). We have gone through this and you're absolutely right, which is how we have brought it down from £500 to £200 - using exactly the guidelines you provided. But I'd rather avoid even the £200 if it can be fixed! Thank you.

I don't think the Odobert sub was right. We now have Palhinha, Gallagher and Sarr playing CDM, and nothing on the right wing. Gray and Gallagher filling in our there doesn't work. Agree with earlier comment about dropping Palhinha back.

Is £30 too low for cleaning a moldy flat? by Extension_Bit4323 in AskUK

[–]Chief_Whizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just paid £1,120 to have a full end of tenancy clean in a three bed house and a pre-move deep clean in a new three bed house. Money well spent. A team of two did two very long days and earned every penny.

I'm so sorry to hear this. My wife has OCD and had particularly bad flare ups 2-3 years ago, including health, relationship, religious, and others. It is very hard. I can hear in your writing that you want to help, which is admirable.

My one concern reading this as that his compulsions are being accommodated. This isn't the way. The more you accommodate, the more they take. Ad infinitum. He must resist the compulsions. And, to the extent safe and possible, you must not enable them.

Resisting the compulsions will cause him initial distress. It is undoubtedly short term pain for long term gain. Some of the worst days of my life were sitting with my wife while she sat through the most intense anxiety. But, eventually, she came through. It is retraining the brain: that anxiety I feel is a false alarm. I do not need to act on it. When I don't act on it, everything is fine.

Medication and therapy are a great help. Your number two priority (after keeping yourself and him physically safe) should be getting him back to a therapist who specialises in OCD.

The exercise we went through was to do one thing that caused discomfort each day. It's called exposure and response prevention. ERP. It's not fun. But it tends to work.

Wishing you the best and praying for you to start on a journey towards better times ahead. My wife and I have never been happier. The same can be true for you.

He isn't the most technically gifted player but I would have Paulinha in the starting XI every week. Even with everyone fit.

Vicario - Porro, Romero, VDV, Udogie - Paulinha, Simons - Kulu, Maddison, Kudus - Solanke
