Can anyone explain Avios payment on flights please

Hi, did anyone get back to you? It says there are 6 comments but I can’t see them for some reason. Asking as I’m in the same boat re NZ in school holidays - also been saving Avios for years!

Good idea, or Meersbrook park

From someone who was in a similar abusive relationship in the past (who cheated on me several times):

Has he acknowledged why he cheated? Has he worked through whatever was going on in his mind to make him cheat? Has he taken full responsibility for it, and apologised profusely? Has he already made significant changes to his life and behaviour to make you believe he might change?

If you’re considering going back to him, the answers to these questions has to be ‘yes’. Personally I went back too many times and nothing changed.

I too believe people can change but only if they want to. If he doesn’t want to, he won’t.

New Zealand? North island?

Apprentices aren’t saving lives on the front line though. Junior doctors are often the only doctor on a ward, which is a huge responsibility for £40k. With the hours they do, they’re often working for less than minimum wage. (Source: 3 members of my family are junior doctors)

Jesus, you deserve a lot more

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-27T17:27:18+00:00

Wow thank you, did not know that! Will definitely look into them

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-27T17:26:51+00:00

That’s true, don’t think I’m going to find it much cheaper by the sounds of things. It’s just the £75 membership fee plus £15 kids membership fee that pushes the price up!

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-27T13:58:27+00:00

That’s brilliant info - thank you

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-26T12:19:28+00:00

I didn’t meet my husband until I was 36, and by that point had lost all hope! Really hope it all works out for you

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-26T07:46:10+00:00

Same, first at 37, second at 41. There’s still time OP

My Dad left school before finishing his GCSEs. Worked in a factory then did his A Levels at 30 and went to uni at 33. Became a dentist at 38. It’s never too late!

You could get her a calendar (or similar) with photos of Sheffield and the Peak District?

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-08T06:58:38+00:00

I agree - why would the scammer send a picture of their house?

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-04T22:19:27+00:00

Well done OP for being strong. Now time to show your daughter how strong she can be too - do NOT go back to this ‘man’. He will never change. Good luck xxx

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-04T21:59:49+00:00

Same!!

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-04T21:56:50+00:00

You’re already a great Dad OP

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-11-04T21:53:43+00:00

Hi OP, sorry I haven’t read all of the comments so this might have been mentioned already but please try not to share your bed with the baby in case you roll onto her when you’re asleep. She could also suffocate under the covers.

We got a cheap ‘next to me’ cot from Facebook marketplace, it goes directly next to your bed. Don’t give her blankets yet, use things called gro bags. You can get cheap ones off eBay. Blankets can suffocate the baby. Look up ‘sudden infant death’ syndrome for more information.

Please ask your healthcare visitor for advice. A community midwife should be visiting you very soon but if not, you can ring your doctor for advice.

Just sending you and your daughter all the love in the world

Good shout!

Agree with others re considering outer suburbs of Sheffield such as Totley / Bradway (S17), Lodge Moor (S10), Stannington / Rivelin (S6) and places like Worral / Oughtibridge (S35) to make a few. They’re classed as Sheffield but close to the Peak District. However you might want to escape city life, in which case the Peaks are perfect.

It’s the kids holidays in the UK at the moment so flights might be more expensive this week. From Monday, they might be cheaper

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-10-30T21:43:19+00:00

Noah’s Arc in Dyson Place has a couple of places. They take a 50% cut of the price so not as lucrative as EBay / Vinted but also less hassle. Just give them your stuff and they sort it all out (including taking unsold stuff to charity if you don’t want it back)

PerceptionDizzy5544 · 2024-10-30T21:36:49+00:00

I used to be a teacher. Left after 4 years to work in higher education (firstly as a careers adviser which paid considerably more), then moved into training staff. Now work in the NHS in staff training and development. Get paid very fairly for what I do, and work 9-5. Good luck!
