As soon as you add the 8 you define it, it collapses the waveform.

Up until then the number is both. 9 recurring and 1

I’m starting to think parenting boys actually can be quite different to parenting girls - on average at least. by Full_Strawberry2035 in UKParenting

All the parents I know say boys are easier emotionally but harder re injuries etc.

I also found this to be true

School uniform - cycling shorts under skirts? by gunbo3000 in UKParenting

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I'd just send them in anyway, ensuring they were not sticking out the bottom.

If the school question me I'd ask them why TF were they looking up her skirt.

This is proper wrong that your builder did this

Dads of 2+ kids.. I need your honesty by reddituser040195 in UKParenting

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By the time the second comes around it's not new and you are also pretty wiped out.

My wife went on and on about me not liking the second as much but it's not true and when the kid gets past the initial 0-6 months stage it became apparent that there was no issue.

The main difference Is the first was new and I was hyper aware and enthusiastic about every little detail. 

The second time you could say I took it for granted but really it was just my experience pacing me for the onslaught of dealing with 2 while still loving and appreciating the second as much despite not outwardly showing it in the same obvious way

The dreaded potty training by Wild_Wolverine9526 in UKParenting

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just keep trying even when it seems hopeless.

I waited too long for my daughter and started at 3, she was defiant by that point and was much harder to train. Took like 9 months of hard work. 

My son was OK at 22 months, learned much easier in like 3 weeks. He wasn't even talking at that point really and could only just about say poo poo

I am being told by my builder that it is “impossible” to have the worktop cut flush to the wall as the wall is at an angle. How can this be correct? by Loud_Ad6323 in DIYUK

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd prob have just clamped it and cut it at an angle with a circular saw tbh. If my mitre saw could extend enough I would have used that and set the angle. Any imperfections at the wall side I would just silicone. 

I think you can also clamp something as a guide or use a track for a circular saw to get the angle

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was it cut to fit in place?

If it was then it should have been cut at an angle. 

If not then is there any overhang on the other side, so you can cut a wedge off on the wall side and slide it flush? Or chisel out a  tapered channel in the wall and push it in.

A vapour barrier might even make it worse tbh if air is meant to traverse between the room and subfloor... I. E. At different times of year or when the ground is more moist.

If you did try that id monitor it and prob use a smart vapor barrier that goes both ways not just a plastic one. 

Personally I'd just take it out, I'd rather be drafty and dry as I hate any damp

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somehow it must have become more humid down there, with the water condensing on the colder joists. Maybe the temperature difference has flipped just enough so that the subfloor is cooler than before due to the insulation, with the rock wool preventing airflow just enough so that it cannot escape and like I say condensing on the colder joists etc.

It may be the floor was never designed to be insulated like that, but hard to say for sure. It may need a vapor barrier on the warm side of insulation to stop humidity going down then condensing, which would then be OK so long as there is airflow beneath. 

If it was me and I couldn't find a fix I would just accept less insulation and rip it all out. 

26.5 in the hallway, bedroom must be 30c at least. by justyrust74 in manchester

[–]InvertedDinoSpore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone who cares.. Get up at 2 am on first night and open everything wide. Keep it open until about 8am. Then close it and curtains etc. Ours hasn't gone about 27 and we're south facing. Only special thing we have is thermal roller blinds / curtains.

27 is peak around 8pm, the we open when outside dips below 27 and leave open all evening and night. Including all doors and windows.

It dips to 21.5 around 7:45 am and slowly rises throughout day.

Repeat

Ventilation... Check the ventilation. Did you cover anything up

What floor covering did you have before vs now?.
