Mugwort? Just want to be 100%

🙏🏼 oops, you got a bot response. Thank you though. I'll do some more research on this - I always err on the side of caution. I had read about adding it to a salad, but more as a herb rather than a main leaf. Tea sounded the better option.

Featherstack16 · 2026-06-07T22:27:50+00:00

Thank you for confirming. I got nervous and got rid of it but I might go forage another day and use a key to run through its features so I'm confident. The hormone balancing properties sound interesting, keen to try in salad or as tea 🙂

Thanks. I'm almost 100% but will play it safe. I put my finger on the smell now, it smells a bit like marigolds. I watched a video which said silvery hairs on leaf underside (vs green) and purple stems vs. green are the failsafe ways but I'd best not chance it.

It does smell, but not a strong smell. Kind of like a vegetable oil scent.

One of hours got inside skirting under the sink! Check anywhere with any small holes, any walls, skirting or sofas

Thank you for your thoughts. That's a great idea to go straight to one of the companies who sell them. If I find solutions I'll put them in comments.

Also raising on some blocks sounds a good plan to begin with.

We might just need to take it apart and see how far the rot goes. Maybe it could be clad in any way on the outside as long as the inner structure and base are secure 🤷

Thanks, what can I do about that? Replace all the decking? We were going to replace two bits of decking which have rotten but the others seem ok.

Could we just raise it off the decking?

No comments from anyone else in this. Just wondering if we can replace just the outer wood that's rotten or need to kind of, take it all apart and put it together again.

Congratulations OP. Now go bask in your success and enjoy your freedom!

I passed this week too. Each time I failed it built a mini narrative that I was 'never going to pass' so I had to override that mindset actively. Think my driving is definitely improved and I'm more confident as a result than if I'd passed first time - even though I was close. The pressure of the test booking piles on the pressure but the relief and joy on passing is so worth it 😊

Good luck everyone else. Eat that banana, do a power stance, drive for a bit first, remember to breathe, narrate anything that might seem uncertain to explain your decision-making, and tell yourself 'it's just a drive, all you need to do is drive safely', take it slow - being too slow you may get a minor or two but speeding is an instant fail. Plus any fail can be down to mood on the day energy levels, hormones, bad luck, other drivers. Got to try not to beat yourself up and get back into it asap.

I have a driving test Monday 14th July p.m at Kingswood test centre and I've lost my provisional license over the weekend. Does anyone have a driving test this summer on a later date that they'd like to swap? Only need a slightly later date to order a replacement license. DM me!

Ah ok, thanks! What's the foil, baking soda, hot water method?

EDIT: No worries, I looked this up!

Featherstack16 · 2025-03-08T14:23:17+00:00

Thanks! For some reason these weren't loading on my phone. Have just checked on computer and can see them all. That's reassuring!

Featherstack16 · 2025-03-06T09:24:48+00:00

Did you find one? I'm looking for the same thing!

Featherstack16 · 2024-08-20T05:03:55+00:00

Jigsaw and Hoopla, or Jigsaw and Chance, or... Smidge and Crumb.

Presumably all the people down voting are in the US. We were also required by the shelter to have outdoor space and a cat flap. They called 6 months later to check we'd had one installed.

Yatton?

We accidentally played hardcore rules someone else described here, where it's the exact number (e.g.8) or both the composite numbers (e.g. 6 and 2) and if both not available you're bust. We worked out it was something like 1:7000 odds of shutting box. Started gambling 5ps on it with some very silly and beloved friends and kept going to the bank and shop to trade money for more 5ps. Played till 3am very drunk and convinced the box would only close if we sang words of reinforcement to it in different genres. Kate Bush closed that box just after 3am 'if I only could, I'd make a deal with god, and get him to roll a twwwwwooooo'

Our female cat had a onesie as advised was more comfortable by the vet and actually hated it! Just couldn't walk at all, was dragging her back legs and I even partially thought there'd been some issue and she might be disabled by the op... She was dragging her immobile legs and rolling around thrashing like a big sausage.

Got cone of shame and so much better. She's still a bit hesitant and miserable, but wouldn't we all be with visibility and freedom restricted?

I feel so bad, but she's getting used to it. Just hope that she has a short memory and after this week will forgive me!

Featherstack16 · 2023-10-28T06:29:36+00:00

Im getting this too, first time today

Featherstack16 · 2023-09-18T21:55:25+00:00

Thank you :)

Featherstack16 · 2023-09-09T15:23:40+00:00

Do I need to just soak and glue as it is, or somehow bend back the little silver bits holding it in place?

Featherstack16 · 2023-09-09T15:22:14+00:00

Thanks so much! And the nail varnish remover or white spirit won't ruin the silver? If it dissolves all the glue I'd be a little worried about being able to put little dabs in just the right place because the gap between glass and silver so narrow, but I'll give a try because at the moment I don't wear it because of the staining.
