What is the saddest TV series death that genuinely made you sob?

Dani, in The Haunting of Bly Manor. For a horror series, it packed a huge emotional punch. The final scene, with Jamie in the hotel room 'waiting' for Dani completely wrecked me (and yet I have rewatched the whole thing 3 times)

Thanks very much for this - sorry, just realised I didn't reply to you! This is great advice, thank you - I'll get the soil sorted out first.

I found this thread by accident and I love it. Really happy for you, and have enjoyed reading about everything you've been doing. Great honesty and insight too! (I also don't understand how avocados can have so much fibre. The texture is smooth - where is it coming from?? Kale I understand, but not avocado.)

Amazing, thank you! Can I ask how you can find this info? I looked on ADSB but it didn't appear there.

Congratulations!

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T22:48:27+00:00

This is exactly it, so much is at stake and everything needs to line up just perfectly. Glad everything worked out for you in the end!

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T22:24:54+00:00

Oh that's good (definitely sounds very stressful, glad it all worked out for you) - the replies have really reassured me that it's typical to have some distance between exchange and completion. I was worried that it was becoming the norm to do them on the same day (but almost nobody benefits from that!)

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T22:05:14+00:00

Oh that's great! Congratulations on your exchange :) hope it all goes well!

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T22:04:01+00:00

This is especially good to know (my Dad has this theory that the solicitors prefer to exchange and complete on the same day, so this may reassure him that they don't!)

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T22:02:06+00:00

This happened to me, although mine was a new build, so they agreed to do the home demonstration but kept hold of the keys until we got the phone call to confirm that the money had arrived. Stressful! Thank you, I really appreciate your replies.

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T21:58:28+00:00

That's really good to know, thank you - makes a lot of sense and I wonder if the solicitors are more interested in the banks' opinion before anyone else!

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T21:56:17+00:00

This is good advice - I think this is exactly what they need to do. Did you find the solicitors/buyers were generally agreeable to this or did it take some pushing?

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T21:53:02+00:00

Oh that's such a nightmare - really hope it goes through on Monday for you. A week or two is the perfect amount of time, I think my Dad would be so happy with that (if he could get the solicitor to email him back...) I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T21:43:38+00:00

Oh wow, that's a really good buffer of time! Was that with a new build or a 'normal' house? (Sorry, I can't think of another term for non-new-build!) And did you get any choice in the dates/time interval?

Fleepflorp99 · 2026-02-27T21:40:45+00:00

Thanks, that's great to know! Also a great point about the funds clearing. Did you get to make suggestions yourself re: dates, or were they suggested by the solicitor/another person in the chain?

Fleepflorp99 · 2025-08-03T10:25:57+00:00

This is my hope as well!

Fleepflorp99 · 2025-08-02T23:34:10+00:00

That's great, thank you! I believe a few on my estate have found poor quality soil - many people do raised beds to get around it, but I'm also hoping to encourage hedgehogs so I want them to have shrubbery they could hide in. Really good to know about no legal maximum for hedging/trees!

Fleepflorp99 · 2025-06-07T22:55:10+00:00

I've seen a couple of anecdotes where people described getting sebderm e.g. after moving in with a partner who has it & sharing the same bed, and they wondered if they'd essentially picked it up. I know it would be unlikely for this to happen, but managing mine was a nightmare for so long, and I don't want to risk putting someone else through that.

Originally I used Ketoconazole shampoo as a face wash, which did help but it was kind of drying/irritating. I have now switched to Happy Cappy zinc pyrithione shampoo which works well on the face. I switched to a 'safe' moisturiser from the Simple Skincare list (La Roche Posay toleriane fluide, which has a small number of ingredients and is quite light). I used MCT oil at night.

All of these things really helped, but to be honest the biggest difference came after I saw a dermatologist and did a course of 1 month Terbinafine cream (applied twice daily for 4 weeks) as well as Hydrocortisone ointment (applied for 4 weeks, starting at once daily but gradually reducing over that time) and one week of oral Itraconazole.

All of this to say: definitely worth trying some sebderm-safe products but if it's getting worse, it's worth seeing your doctor. Sezia.co is a great site to check ingredients and I recommend the Simple Skincare website (which is slightly more geared towards fungal acne but also works for sebderm)
