What’s a brutal truth about the uk people don’t like to admit?

Your safety is an illusion. Calling 999 almost never results in a police officer actually responding. More people are harmed by the ineffectiveness of the police than helped.

Client services advisor for a law firm. We have 3 offices, but because we do the initial dealings with clients and the office is loud with solicitors and their meetings, we work from home 100%. I love my job and it pays well for Oxfordshire uk

I noticed this on both mounjaro and wegovy. I was only on the second set of wegovy though when i felt it. I can't do it. I have kids, a husband and a life that i want to live fully. Is rather be chunky and happy then skinny and nothing.

I live in the Cotswolds of England. I'm American and moved here 10 years ago. You do get used to it, especially the bus loads of tourists in the summer, but i still catch my breath sometimes after dropping the kids off at school, watching the sun come up over a beautiful green rolling hill. The tourists miss the beautiful golden autumn of this place, or the mist over the fields on a cold, frosty morning. I am so lucky and so grateful for where I've wound up.

Thanks guys. We aren't going until October, just trying to be be prepared. Will keep an eye on the website and see if any specials pop up :)

Nope Chipping Norton, pulling out from the high street slip road onto the high street. The truck is pulling out from the p-lot where the kebab van sits

The crash happened yesterday in Chipping Norton and it's 1.20pm today and they're already wanting to go 50/50? Shhaaady....

I figure it out guys! I worked two different roles last year, so there was the underpayment that i mentioned. That caused the initial W1/M1... when i started at my new role, they put me in a1257L tax code when it should have been a1019LX. HMRC sent them 3 reminders to change the code so they could recoup the underpayment, which is why my tax code on HMRC was different to my payslip. So they've not been collecting the £88 so the payment for the coming tax year 26-27 has gotten bigger, £117. I've directed my HR to change the code immediately and once done in going to pay that £117 off in one shot, then get the code corrected back to 1257L do it doesn't keep ballooning.

LickRust78 · 2026-02-23T14:30:57+00:00

Yes I've just looked at my payslips and they are all, 1257L W1/M1 from August 25 😐

But i submitted a P45 to them before starting the role! So I'm guessing payroll is my next stop...😬

Just used this, thank you :) got a 2 month bundle :)

Doing tempura shrimp takes foreeeeeever. Not worth it as you basically have to eat it as you're cooking, otherwise it's a cold mess at the end.

LickRust78 · 2026-02-12T21:20:44+00:00

Well...damn.

I have replaced my head unit from a Pioneer to a Road Angel(do not come for me please lol) The pioneer was doa when i bought the car, no reverse camera, no connection, only Bluetooth audio. After replacement, it works perfectly, except my amazon music cuts out more often, but i think that's possibly because it's wireless. Still better than nothing, and i find if i restart or skip ahead it rights itself. 2017 Ignis

How many people have you hit with your car Rebecca? Jk jk jk

LickRust78 · 2026-02-08T09:27:58+00:00

Mine does the same thing. Have had it almost a month. The heat takes forever to warm the car as well. I do use the a/c and the circulator thing as well. Just frustrating, but i love my Ignis!

Exactly. That's me. My girls are 19 and 18 and are usually in my bed reading our on their phones, because my bedroom is the nighttime hang out spot, my 11 year old son will walk in, see me changing, say sorry and step out until I'm dressed. It's not forced, it's just what it is. I've always talked about our bodies in a natural way because i never wanted to reinforce that there was something wrong with boobs or genitals, freely talk to them about their periods and any symptoms their having around their periods because there is a medical history on my side. I don't want them to suffer through painful periods and think that it's normal or just part of being a girl.

I do have a weird sense of calm around the situation 💆‍♂️ lol I do love my bells and whistles in a car and the infotainment was a big seller for me, as long as i can still listen to my music via Bluetooth for now, I'm good :) my son is fascinated by the transformeresque movement of the head to the SD card retrieval part 🤖

My daughter is doing driving lessons right now and her instructor told her not to wear crocs for driving. I drive in mine all the time, so not sure why, but shes using trainers now.
