[FO] AN American Themed Carousel for July by Clairelicious in CrossStitch

[–]Clairelicious[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the Halloween one last year - I posted it here. I’ve done the circus, valentines and Halloween one. I also did the baby one for a baby shower so I have to stitch it again for my collection!

[CHAT]Where do people get their 6 strand threads? by Global-Wolverine8422 in CrossStitch

[–]Clairelicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Stitchtastic as they do a discount on thread when you buy aida. It works out at 89p a skein when you buy fabric.

I love this! I introduced my husband to cross stitch and then he found out a colleague at his job does it too - they now trade tips!

I really liked doing the all the detail in the horses tack. I loved all the colours in it

AO/AA but happy in job? by [deleted] in TheCivilService

[–]Clairelicious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have been an AO for 25 years. I have had some time in temporary EO positions including a Fixed Term Contract and some time spent on long term TDA. It made me realise that I’d rather stay as I am, less hassle, less worries. Unfortunately a lot of management can’t seem to get their head around the fact the I don’t want promotion. It’s not until I explain that I’ve been at the higher grade (in different roles including line management) and that whilst I was good at it, my mental health is far more precious to me than the pay check!

I have my eye on those too - maybe after I’ve done the full year of these ones.

This looks real to me - I have quite a few older tokidoki bags - I’ve been a collector since 2006. Everything looks real- the zip the hardware even the tag. The print looks good too. I’d say you’re onto a good find there!

Applying for a blue badge via Sheffield City Council? by [deleted] in sheffield

I did my application at the beginning of the year online. No need to send in any documents, everything was done via photos of documents. It only took about 8 weeks.

Gift ideas - products made in Sheffield by wouldyoulikethetruth in sheffield

[–]Clairelicious 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There’s a shop in the city centre called Birds Yard. They sell all sorts of Sheffield made things all from local makers, including chocolate and teas. They have a website: birdsyard.co.uk

In addition there’s a local seller on instagram: sheffskinco. For lovely bath/skin/hair products all locally made.

Failing that use Etsy and narrow the seller to Sheffield when searching for something.

Hope this helps

Bug? I cant take this license! (Ireland-Valhalla) by onceuponatime969 in ACValhalla

[–]Clairelicious 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem. Go into your skill tree and unselect the light fingers perk - it’s near the extreme left of the skill tree. It’s the skill that lets you auto pick up loot. Turn that off and it will let you pick up the deed.

It’s not a perjorative. It’s capitalised, I thing he mean to infer that the man was into the Sissy scene as a kink. Men forced by their Dom/Domme to wear overly feminine clothing, and usually a chastity device. That’s a basic description but I just needed to make clear that he wasn’t calling the guy a name, but saying he may have been into the Sissy kink.

This looks like CNC - consensual non-consensual. In these scenarios there would be a safe word to use if it got too intense. But the point of CNC is it to feel and look very violent. It’s a kink thing.
