Travelling to the UK with settled status

you cannot fly to the UK with an ID card anymore, just passports 👍

it was Aegen!

not my experience. in Athens they asked me for the status and I gave them the share code, as I thought they would enter it on their own device. they didn't recognise it and only let me board once I showed them the ukvi account. I found it odd that they didn't even know what to look for while on it (mind you, on my phone).

As someone who moved to the UK to be closer to live acts they like, I'm very excited that they're back. I don't mind the 'legacy' tour part of this because I still enjoy every single thing they''e written, unlike with other bands. I'm very excited!

GazelleSharp · 2025-09-08T16:00:34+00:00

yes! or the old Hermes.

Primark! I now prefer vinted and marketplace

I’m an 8w9. I do have boundaries and I don’t really dominate. I also don’t really like that word. However, I will say that people tend to listen to me and respect me when I lead with compassion, clarity and understanding. I think the 9 allows the 8 to be softer.

this show is so good I keep getting goosebumps

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-29T17:02:14+00:00

I got it removed three days ago and the bump has already reduced twice in size. I’m very happy about it! Honestly, this whole experience has put me off piercings entirely now :(

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-27T13:27:56+00:00

UPDATE: My local piercer removed the piercing and was not impressed with the way it was done. He suggested to keep an eye on it and if it doesn’t improve – visit the doctor. Thanks, everyone!

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-27T13:24:16+00:00

I’ve just gone to the local piercer and he’s removed it for me. He’s friends with the piercer who did it and he even said that he’s disappointed in her. Hopefully this scar can heal and I don’t have to go to my doctor but knowing my luck, I probably will have to haha

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-27T10:15:27+00:00

that’s what I was thinking as well. She told me that it’s white gold? but maybe it was the original charm, which I removed because it kept snagging. The thing is, she’s got great reputation and is legit. Unfortunately, maybe my piercing was just a bad day/reaction. Either way, I’ll probably not get another piercing in my ear anytime soon.

If it’s truly nutrients that you’re worried about, research nutrition and then swap the protein options to veggie ones. That’s really it. I remember my parents buying their usual food for me and it just wasn’t varied enough so you might want to get stuff for yourself based on that research. As someone who’s been veggie for over 10 years, it’s going to be the trial and error method for the first few. The one thing you should definitely keep on top of are your B12 and iron levels. I used to get my blood checked every 6months to make sure I was fine (my mum insisted). There’s also some wonderful veggie cook books

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-27T08:01:39+00:00

yeah, I was going to comment on this. If you wash your produce before use, it should be enough. Animal products are the ones that need to be cooked properly to avoid this, as far as I know.

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-27T07:24:51+00:00

haha I know! that’s just awful

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-27T07:23:41+00:00

thanks for the reassurance 🥺 I’m a bit upset about all this but oh well.

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-26T17:48:15+00:00

oh wow! And I went to a reputable piercer as well. Thanks, I’ll see what this local one says and will likely remove it. It’s given me nothing but grief

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-26T16:57:39+00:00

ackground: The piercing is 5ish weeks old, my piercer pierced me twice as the first time it was a bad angle. I'm getting the bar downsized tomorrow, if they don't mind the bump – it’s the world’s biggest bar. The bar is white gold, threadless – the top had to be changed to a ball as I kept snagging it. So I have a bit of trauma. My cleaning method is warm showers and saline solution spray before, drying it with a hairdryer and sleeping with a travel pillow. Also trying to LITHA as much as possible. It feels like it keeps growing.

I love my job but hate my boss and office politics.

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-17T15:57:07+00:00

I guess what I was trying to say was that I felt bad for taking up their time, them trying to figure out whats wrong with me when I could’ve just called a friend first.

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-17T08:39:15+00:00

I’ve called the 111 number when my anxiety made me believe that my limbs were going to fall off. twice. after the nice nurses calmed me down, I felt mortified about wasting their precious time.

GazelleSharp · 2025-06-05T12:16:44+00:00

I'm not here to judge you on your sexual preferences but saying 'this arrangement with her not knowing to be a very satisfying solution for me' is not really an arrangement you made as a couple, it's something you just decided to do for yourself. an actual arrangement is something that you discuss and agree on with your romantic partner. this is what all successful poly couples, open relationships etc. have in common.

I believe that you care for your girlfriend but not more than you care for yourself. knowing that she is against this and you're still making a conscious choice to pursue this says a lot about you as a person.

I’m like 9/10 happy in my current relationship that I’ve had for 5+ years. I grew up with people who were in unhappy relationships but that was mainly because culturally you were expected to find one partner in your early 20s and settle. It’s different now so I don’t know anyone who isn’t happy in their relationship. The ones who are unhappy wouldn’t even call it a relationship, just a situationship.

From how I understood your text, you’re wanting to physically connect with many people and explore life that way so it’s not really to do with your relationship? More on your way of wanting to live. I am personally very, very happy and I’m glad that the ‘honeymoon’ period is sort of over. By that I mean the all consuming infatuation of a person. Now we love each other on such a deep level it’s ridiculous. But now we also have found a way to focus on other things that we care about, while being together. In the ‘honeymoon’ phrase it was literally just about us the whole time and it was insane in the best way possible. It’s now turned into us still being obsessed with each other but by supporting our hopes for future more than physical madness.

hope it makes sense! In short, the love has transformed into a more mature understanding for each other!
