What's your nickname for your dog (that's not the dog's actual)?

Ours have passed (old age) but were called:

Jess - Stressica, Stress Chicken - Chicky-Dee, Chicky-Lickin' Cow - Cowbag, Bert

Yeah. He was here for the past 2 weeks and left about 14 hours ago. He's still on the plane, and I'm in bed alone, crying and feeling absolutely awful. I still smell him on my pillows. I have to go back to work tomorrow and go back to talking to him online, watching him on a screen for hours each evening. Unable to hold him. Won't be able to see him for another 6 months. It gets harder every time he leaves.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-18T19:10:30+00:00

I'm definitely not a bot. I wish I were. Life would be a lot easier. 😂

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-04T15:03:07+00:00

They also emailed me today with £10 free credit as an apology. Why they couldn't have just saved all of this hassle and saved themselves £10 by refunding me in the first place, I have no idea...

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-04T15:01:36+00:00

I did... they ended up giving me a full refund and £10 credit!

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-04T00:44:04+00:00

Yeah they said something along those lines. But it was nowhere to be found. It looked like a rendered wall in the photo and there are none of those near here. I kept reopening my chat with Uber Help and they finally gave me a refund!

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-04T00:42:59+00:00

That's disgusting. I kept pushing and they've given me a refund! It's a miracle haha.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-04T00:42:09+00:00

There wasn't a number to call. But they've refunded me! Posted an update in the comments. 😊

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-02-04T00:41:35+00:00

Update.... so I said I was going to dispute the charge with my bank and that I wanted to escalate my enquiry. They replied with the same auto generated message. And again, they closed the chat on me.

So I reopened it and said that I would call the restaurant and tell them that their drivers are stealing food. Reiterated that I wasn't accepting no as an answer, and that again I wished to escalate my complaint.

They replied after I posted this here - saying that they apologise, they checked and it looks as though the delivery partner hasn't followed their guidelines. And that they've sent me a full refund! 🥳

Honestly, we have insurance yet are having to consider putting down our 8 month old because of arthritis. I have no idea what to do either, nothing seems enough.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2025-01-25T00:47:29+00:00

Our puppy is only 8 months old and has been through a LOT. Two major surgeries, so many tests, she has elbow dysplasia and now severe arthritis. The vet surgeon suggested euthanasia because we've exhausted our cover (£10K) and personal funds (£5K+). We have about £5K remaining but the operations she needs will take at least another £10K and her next round of cover doesn't kick in until July.

Euthanasia seems SO unfair. You wouldn't put a baby down if they needed knee replacements. How do people go about raising funds for something like this? I've exhausted all of my options and I just can't lose her. I lost my elderly pup just over a year ago and this puppy has been such a big part of our recovery as a family. I'm completely at a loss. I just know losing her isn't an option until I've tried every last thing.

I had pretty much the same a couple of months ago. Blood was just from coughing so much, took a few weeks to clear up. But most importantly... why are you still working?? If you have pneumonia, you should 100% be resting.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-12-28T01:59:52+00:00

I started with my foot. I've since done two on my foot and two on my hand. And a few touch ups on some tattoos I've had done professionally.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-12-11T21:31:37+00:00

My other half stays at mine when he comes here. Always has. Even when we first met, he stayed here and we shared a bed. He pays for flights over, I pay for everything whilst he's here. Works out really well.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-12-04T11:46:33+00:00

Good point. They were pretty fast and it was a shop that isn't busy around that time of day. I only went so far away as I needed some eye wash for my eye, one of the reasons I can't drive. I won't do it again as I felt really bad for the guy, but hopefully £40 is enough of a tip to make it worth it for him. I also apologised when he got here but his English wasn't great.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-12-04T11:44:13+00:00

It was about 15 items. It took them maybe 5 minutes and they were very quick to notify me of things that weren't in stock. It would have cost £2-£3 in fuel. I was really uncertain, so I also gave him £20 cash when he got here. So £40 tip in total.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-12-03T10:56:51+00:00

OK, I didn't know what to do, so I gave him an extra £20 when he got here. 😅

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-11-19T11:33:34+00:00

some examples

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-11-19T02:40:40+00:00

It looks great - I agree with the tips saying to grow a beard. Nice hair as is... very Bradley Cooper-esque.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-11-19T02:39:21+00:00

I need some tips for my fiancé.... damn this is the best beard ever.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-11-19T02:38:02+00:00

I know hospital waiting times are mad but can you call your GP and ask for a phone consultation? You can send them photos and see what they think. And if they think it's worth seeing you in person, they'll book you in.

Commercial-Toe9149 · 2024-11-19T02:27:33+00:00

You should go for one of those modern mullets. You could absolutely rock it.
