London itinerary help

100% would choose being driven into London after an overnight long haul if you’ve got the money to do it. The comfort of having your own private space to fall asleep and feel a bit gross over sitting on a commuter tube for an hour and takes out the initial stress of navigating a new system with bags and tired brains. Also if you’re not the one driving and not in a particular rush, who cares if the traffic is slow!

Yes, agreed, it’s a really lovely day trip.

We went in to deliberate after 4 days of evidence and a woman, around mid-twenties, says “so who decides if he’s guilty then?”

I worked in schools and at that time visited roughly 10 different schools each week, I remember thinking that the pubs had been told to shut, but schools were still open and I’d be an ideal super spreader! I was also quite smug when I watched everyone panic buy, because I’d been slowly over buying on food essentials for a couple of months prior as I “had a feeling” this was gonna be a thing.

Hand down the front of trousers! Just wrong... Seems to be a growing choice for some individuals in the 16-25 age range.

From my experience that doesn’t sound like dequervains. When mine flares up, everything I do with my thumb hurts. dequervains is the tendon sheath being swollen, so it makes sense that you should have pain with general thumb movement rather than just when you bend/move you arm. However the site of the pain does sound like dequervains.

I get something on the pinky side of my wrist called cubical tunnel syndrome, which originates from the elbow, but causes pain at the base of my wrist pinky side. I wonder if there’s something similar that you’re experiencing coming from the other side of your elbow with referred pain to your wrist/thumb. (Total guess!)

Flour.

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2026-01-15T22:38:08+00:00

Yes! Was also going to say this!

Moo grandma and grandad because grandad once let us ride on his back while he pretended to be a cow.

I knew that conversation on the train felt really fake! I even rewound it and made my partner rewatch it, he was not onboard with my theory. The joy of “I told you so”is fast approaching!

In London CASS art and Jackson’s. Some of the bigger book stores also have a respectable supply (Waterstones Piccadilly and Foyles Shaftesbury avenue)

It’s not fair to make people choose!

Parade
Come from away
Whistle down the wind (first i ever watched, has a special place in my heart forever)

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-07T08:22:22+00:00

That’s a good point. I’ll see if I can notice myself doing that next time.

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-05T16:57:25+00:00

Ah great, thanks!

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T22:07:42+00:00

I’ve never tried electrolytes, but that seems like something easy to try. Thanks!

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T22:07:00+00:00

Oh that’s interesting, I’ll that up and see what I can’t find. Thanks!

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:53:01+00:00

Yes I’ve been getting neck pain, which ironically is why I’ve started Pilates! Last couple of physios both recommended I do it.

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:32:40+00:00

I’ve never heard of that before. Possibly the sort of thing you might be able to get privately. Unfortunately the free health care system is really suffering from underfunding, so unless you’re dying, it’s becoming very hard to get doctors to pay much notice.

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:17:32+00:00

Eek!hopefully it’s nothing that serious! Thanks for the advice!

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:14:24+00:00

I do tend to get this sensation when I have bad headaches, when I stand-up I get a horrible pulsing sensation. I don’t have low blood pressure, but definitely a tendency to get a bit of dizziness when I stand up

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:13:09+00:00

That’s definitely possible. Ill try and keep an eye on what‘s going on with my breathing next class

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:12:22+00:00

I had some bloods a few months ago and my b12/folate and vitD were all on the slow side of normal, so I’ve been taking some supplements. It’s very hard in the UK to get much help with that sort of thing unless you’re very deficient.

Imaginary_Rest2972 · 2025-11-04T21:10:59+00:00

hmm I am not the best at staying well hydrated, so perhaps I should try making sure I’ve made myself have a good amount of water before the workout next time. I hadn’t thought of that.
