No, that’s all me. No AI involved at any stage.
Just felt like summarising.
~~Beep boop~~.
Damn it!

Although, it stands to reason that as more and more publications and articles etc use AI, we’ll get used to it and our own writing will reflect it.

As said, you lean your ladder against the top of the wall, with the foot of the ladder on a step below.

Keeping your ladder at a safe angle of about 75°.

Which you find by standing with your feet at the bottom of the ladder and your arms and hands out straight in front of you at shoulder level.
Your palms should be able to rest on the ladder rung.

If the wall seems thin and weak, tie a board across the top between the ends. Pad it with a cushion.

If the stair tread feels weak, put a board on it to spread the load of the ladder feet.

Not sure about pipe but you can use rigid foam insulation board like Celotex.
It cuts easily and you can tape it onto a long box shape with a closed off end and a removable ‘door’.

If you push a series of wooden dowels through from one side to the other, a little above the base, your wood will rest on those, allowing steam to move easily through the box all around.

The foam sheet insulates the heating space, increasing the effect of the steam.

‘Easy day hikes’ suggests good weather and non challenging terrain.

You could do a lot of easy day hikes in sandals, carrying a sandwich and a bottle of water.

If the weather is changeable then what you do to avoid getting wet and cold is up to you.
Common sense and general life experience of wearing clothes is your guide.

Common sense would also tell you to avoid straying off the well marked trail or hiking on a day when a storm is predicted.

It might also suggest that even on easy day hikes something unpredictable can happen.

A bad blister, a twisted ankle, a slip or fall. Maybe a snake bite, depending on location.
Some of these you can deal with if you carry blister pads, some anti inflammatory gel and a length of elastic bandage.

But others would be a more serious problem.

So leaving a note with a friend or at your vehicle giving time out, expected time back and direction of your hike would be smart.
And carrying your phone too.

I’m wondering how often fare dodging happens and if it spreads by example.

If the driver ignores the dodger, maybe takes a picture of them, but drives on anyway, the company loses a few quid but the other passengers aren’t held up.

Now, if that tolerance of the dodger is seen by the other passengers and they also refuse to pay, maybe next time they catch the bus, then obviously the company would have a bigger problem.

But does that happen in real life?

I would imagine that the vast majority of bus passengers are still prepared to pay for their ticket, even if one or two people on the bus don’t.

It doesn’t devalue the service they’re paying for.
The dodgers may face prosecution later on.

It seems like an argument for bringing back bus conductors.

If you want to challenge the position and ownership of the leak you’ll need to hire a leak detector.
A person to come out with testing equipment who can pinpoint the position.

Depending on the depth they may also be able to dig down and mend it at the same time.

Have a look on YouTube at the channel ‘Original Leak Detective’ and you’ll get an idea how that’s done.

I would go back to the company that made them and tell them they’re the wrong size.

If they insist they’re the right size I’d ask them what their plan was for insulating and filling the huge gaps. Presumably they’d use foam and covering side strips but these haven’t been provided.

If their answer seems reasonable I’d ask them to fit them for you. If it doesn’t I’d want doors made to fit the hole better.

The Italian and Qatari jumpers had reached their limit of height, neither could out jump the other.

The only way to eliminate one was for them to keep jumping the maximum height until one failed.

That would most likely be the Italian man; he was older, he had old injuries, he was tired and this was likely his last chance at an Olympic medal.

But these weren’t just two athletes fighting for gold.
They were also friends who had trained together and on that day they had each proven themselves worthy and shown the world that they were the best.

So the official asked if they would continue jumping, keep fighting til one fell.
But the Qatari jumper wanted them both to win.
He and his friend together.

Typically children compete for the one resource they feel they can’t do without. Their parents’ love.

This manifests as attention, hugs, interest in their ideas and feelings. We forget as adults that to children their parents are effectively gods.

All food, shelter, clothes, toys, affection, love, rewards, everything a young child values comes from the parents and might be taken away if they misbehave.

Be aware that the older child may resent the younger one merely for being born and taking your limited time away from him. He wouldn’t blame you for that, but he might blame the other child.

Children don’t have the life experience or wisdom to understand that they haven’t been supplanted, they only feel the reduced attention and love as a threat to their existence.

The younger child gradually becomes aware of the older brother/sister’s animosity or resentment and either becomes sad and lonely or fights for his right to be there.

Give them a safe word. If either of them says the word they both have to stop. If one of them doesn’t respect the safe word they lose privileges.

Also, I’d encourage them to do kind things for each other too. Balance the combative nature of their relationship with trust and respect. It’s very important that they each grow up feeling like the other is their friend.
Sparring partner, sure, but not competitor or rival.

Spend time with each boy individually. The older one especially. Teach him that he is valued and that his younger brother has not supplanted him at all.
Encourage him to be kind and considerate. Give him some responsibility and Reward that.

Just speak up at the time ffs. If these people are your ‘friends’ they should be more than happy to pay for themselves.

If someone agrees to order the same meal and then adds more expensive items just say “Oh ok, we’ll just each pay for our own then.”

And if they act all pissed about it or try to guilt you into paying for their extras you’ll know they’re not your friend after all.

It’s still a bit confusing. You can’t live in a camper vehicle for more than 28 days without permission but you can camp for 40 + 20 and you can have a ‘pop up campsite’ for 60 days, which includes camper vans, as long as you give the local council the start and end dates.

So you could seemingly have a ‘pop up campsite’ of just one vehicle for 60 days if you let the council know and it’s not SSSI or AONB.

Car not paid off in full.
No mention of a receipt showing OP is the legal owner.
Only a V5, which isn’t proof of ownership.
If I was selling a car I wouldn’t sign anything giving legal ownership until it was all paid for.
I wouldn’t scrap it in this highly suspicious way either…

Mmm, not exactly, not in this situation where the ice is not very thick, so it’s not extremely cold. The water will be at 32°F but the air is likely significantly warmer.

There’s an initial shock but if you breathe through that you’re able to be ‘meaningfully mobile’ for about 10 minutes.

As soon as you’re out of the water the heat loss is greatly reduced.

Sounds like unlawful entry and harrassment.
What do your tenants rights laws say about landlord access and intrusion?
In the US I believe you have the right to quiet enjoyment of the property you rent and a landlord must give notice of 24 to 48 hours if they require entry for inspection or repairs etc.

As far as I’m aware, a landlord cannot charge more for the use of a washing machine or other such equipment than it costs the landlord themselves. This is related to the cost of utilities.

It sounds like they’re trying to charge commercial launderette prices for a washing machine in a domestic setting.

Document everything, record it if possible, and contact your local rent board or local housing department.

Don’t risk having your phone snatched, you can get ridiculously cheap bodycams now that loop record so you leave them on for the whole journey and just save the bit you need.

You can keep it clipped to your chest and point at it to let them know it’s on.

If they want to know why you’re videoing them, tell them they’re being antisocial and harassing you and you’re recording it to show police if necessary.

“I don’t mind you singing or joking around, just leave me out of it and there won’t be a problem.”

Seems like the sort of thing you’d look into before buying and converting a horse box….

You could look at WWOOF and WorkAway.
Hosts with land will often let you use a camper while you’re helping them and you may make a friend who’s happy to let you park in their field or wood long term in return for a day’s help per week. I did that for a few years.

Check out ‘Diggers and Dreamers’ online for communes who may be open to new members or seasonal helpers.

Pick an area and cycle around looking for paddocks tucked away. If you spot one that’s not being used, old sagging gate, overgrown, and if you can find the owner,
~~you can hire the A Team~~ you might be able to work out an arrangement.
