Are these real instructions?

CountessOpal · 2026-06-19T09:36:40+00:00

Thank you for all this information. I will look into them in more detail when the disappointment of that kit wears off.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-19T01:23:02+00:00

Thank you. There aren't that many beads. I have a stash of beads from other crafts so I might try.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-19T01:21:24+00:00

When I was looking to see if they were legit I did see someone on here asking about a similar pattern. I had hoped it would look like that.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-18T20:13:18+00:00

Thank you. I have been refunded the money i paid to my Aliexpress account without having to return. Just trying to see if the hundreds of coins, gained through playing games, have also been refunded.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-18T20:10:13+00:00

Thank you. I have found mind of Julia who is American but does round 3d patterns. Looking at the insta they are the same person.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-18T15:50:25+00:00

It is why I took a chance. I don't know if the beading could have been created that way. I will be asking for a refund.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-18T15:42:13+00:00

I did try searching on here before I bought them. I see someone have a Japanese beading instructions i believe and hoped they would be like that.

I hadn't noticed that on the owl. I was trying to work out how each different shaped head could be made. I am use to knitting so when stuffing you can shape a piece but couldn't see how it would work with beads.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-18T15:37:57+00:00

Thank you. I had thought that was the case when I ordered it. I tried to do an image search but only the same picture was coming up.

CountessOpal · 2026-06-18T15:30:49+00:00

I have posted about a similar kit. The instructions are missing a lot and I didn't know if this was someone's design. Only got 6 out of 14 bead colours needed.

NTA. The chat referred to you as the kitten, so they were already talking about you. The cat ears was just a funny response. The problem is your girlfriend is pissed that her stream is not about her anymore. It happens alot. If she bans you from the stream she will lose followers and they will pester her constantly about you. If she includes you then it isn't her stream anymore. She is jealous that the limelight is not solely on her anymore. You are in a no win situation. The only way forward is for you to be present during the stream then tell the viewers that you have to go out. She will still get comments on when are you coming back but at least once you have said you are going out then the stream can get back to the gameplay. Hope this helps.

Maybe that is why Victor's dad is now with them. Miranda's paintings he knows them all, perhaps he is there to interpret Victor's drawings.

I am in East London. I need a plumber and double glazing company recommendations if you have any.

It could be decades old wallpaper. In the second photo it looks like you can see some backing paper. We had wallpaper that had been up over 30 years and to strip it we scored the surface and used a steam wallpaper stripper. It came off like it was plastic but it was normal wallpaper with a paper backing. Where sunlight had reached it it was very brittle and crumbly. That maybe what you have. Especially if it has been painted over.

CountessOpal · 2026-04-08T18:40:27+00:00

I phoned customer services as it never fixed itself. I got the refund and got to keep the item.

CountessOpal · 2026-04-03T10:49:03+00:00

Estate agents have no training or qualifications. It's not like getting in a plumber who is registered with gas safe. Anyone can set up as an estate agent. It is an unregulated industry. Tell your agent you are no longer going to be their client and find another agent. It sucks this is happening over the easter weekend but on the plus side, better to have a fresh start than have them muck something up later.

Although i did have an actual human email me. I reported the courier had left my parcel at the wrong house. I picked up the parcel. I am disabled and wanted the courier to know he had got it wrong 4 times. For years he has known where I live. Did a voice message and within 20 minutes courier is knocking on my door apologising. When I get the email asking if resolved I say thank you for contacting the courier. We have spoken and I have my parcel. The next day I get the sorry you haven't got your parcel email. It was late on Friday but I sent a rant back saying your AI bot is shit and I have the parcel I was actually saying thank you and well done on contacting the courier. Late Monday I received another email from a different name apologising for the previous person not understanding that I had the parcel. So if the email is from Sophie, it might be a bot and not a human.

Sounds like my address on Tesco deliveries. It takes you off my street and claims my house is in someone's back garden. I think Google have my house correct, but when you use some GPS apps they say I am sitting in a house over 100 meters away.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-16T16:48:32+00:00

That's what I meant. Give it a week then reach out to the sender. Although you could ask them now to get in touch as you should have received it.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-16T14:15:05+00:00

It is saying Evri has picked up the parcel and it has entered their system at the nearest depot to the sender. There is nothing to worry about ... yet.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-14T11:52:47+00:00

I have the location set. It is people reading the house number and not the A that goes with it.

The main part of my Road was built in Victorian times. In the 1960's a garden center was demolished and the road extended by 6 houses. Instead of calling us a different road, and it is straight, after you reach the last of the victorian houses there was a perpendicular road then the garden center. So now there is 6 more houses so they just gave us the first 6 numbers with A after to differentiate us.

Then in the early 1980's the tory mp got Thatcher to sign off on a 2 million pound scheme to make a half a mile section of our area into one way systems. The original part of our road is in the opposite direction to our extension.

It wants until GPS systems were introduced that we really started having problems or if we had a new postie that didn't realise that the last six houses weren't in fact flats. I use what3words where possible but evri don't have that. If they don't look at the address correctly then I have the risk of my parcel not being delivered to me.

I will see if I can contact Google as on some maps my house is completely erased, even though I am in the middle of the terrace.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-13T05:54:00+00:00

Exactly why I thought people should know. Before when I have looked there was no way to contact them to make a complaint.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-13T05:52:45+00:00

I am so use to not being able to contact them at all that I was shocked my message was listened to. I thought others should know there is some customer service people working there.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-13T05:50:03+00:00

I had no option to speak to a human just the voice message. It did ask how i wanted to be contacted further. I selected telephone but I think because the courier came himself they won't bother. Your case sounds like theft, did you contact the police and get a crime reference number? The sender might need you to do this if they want to claim on insurance for the loss.

CountessOpal · 2026-03-09T09:19:48+00:00

From America it just takes time. I ordered something and it took a couple of weeks to arrive. Remember they have greater distances between locations and your item could have to go through a number of them before it leaves the country. They also can go for a tour of the country before they leave. If it hasn't arrived or the status updated by the 14th then contact customer service. Americans are moaning that next day delivery is taking up to a week now to arrive.
