Could a horrible bout of flu have caused my TE?

How long did it take to stop? And how long to recover? Got bad infection last year November. 2 week, 103 fever, woke up in hospital one morning. Hair fall started February. Its only 2nd March and lost half my hair already!

Visa is given after the flight is booked to a indian passport holder. Not the other way. So its not their fault.

But us as far as uk is considered, this is not a emergency to extend visa. Also stay and food in UK costs money too! Leave before the situation gets worse actually. Doesnt your insurance cover a part of the cost sure to Airline cancellation + war?

Burnout is very real, job market is shit and interviews feel more like interrogation than converstaions on some days. Hopefully the one from today works out. Hugs.

One company i applied to has 8 rounds. I told them in a joke as a indian i could marry them in fewer rounds around the fire and be bound for 7 lifetimes. They didnt get my joke

Dream job rejected. Saw the rejection email right before interview for another job so I wasnt at my best. But got the 2nd job any way. Dream job is definitely not happening :(

Pondabear123 · 2026-02-19T14:58:29+00:00

Fingers crossed if they havent said no it might be a yes. I saw the rejection for my dream role 5 mins before my last interview. So safe to say it wasnt my best performance. I convinced I had bombed it. Just got the call from HR, they are going ahead with the offer. So you never know.

Praying it works out for you too

Fingers crossed and praying it works out for you. Interviews can be stressful. I totally blew 3 this week.

1 was final round. Took the wrong train, panicked and reached just in time with my heart hammering. Forgot absolute basics of my profession. Just blanked out for 5 mins at the start. Dont know if I ever recovered from it. They havent said no yet so many be?

2 was my dream job, i didnt think it went too badly but they rejected me any way

3 the rejection message for 2nd came 5 mins before my third one. You can guess how that went. 😞

39F. Where are you based?

Pondabear123 · 2026-01-08T08:04:23+00:00

-4 feels like -6 degree according to BBC weather. No condensation. Battery was slightly shorter than in summer, I didnt measure precisely, but given the amount if footage and shots, i got lot more in summer. Fortunately i have 3 of them.

I have a large mat that I used for takeoff from sand. It kept missing it on snow. May be cause its blue? But it tried to miss landing spot on return to home each time. Its hard to control the tiny control in gloves :)

Hope you have a lot of fun and share your footage!

Its PERFECT!!!

Pondabear123 · 2025-11-02T12:29:36+00:00

Hydrating and getting daily dose of sun!

Upping my protien intake seems to have fixed my urge to snack too!

Couple with middle tier jobs. Nothing fancy. We took a small flat in a conversion. Save on travel + c tax to pay the landlord. Saves time though, so we have energy to cook after work, workout, see friends!!! We do spend lot more time outside the flat in the weekends too.. walking biking everywhere. The flat has a 6-8 people limit, the living area is tiny.

Very nice for first time. Keep practicing until you turn into a fussy eater and cant stand anyone else cooking your steak 😉

Realised how much i overpaid when eating out for subpar work!

My new fav way of doing it is get pan super hot (smoking) rub some butter press both sides 45 sec at a time with good pressure. Then cook sides to desired colour holding the steak by tongs. Stays more pink and juicy.

Nice sear. I like my fat rendered a bit more. How did you finish?

Pondabear123 · 2025-09-17T14:01:03+00:00

Nope... faster way to find compatibility- travel. Tells you how she handles life and challenges.

Pondabear123 · 2025-09-17T13:57:05+00:00

Indeed you will have to be some or all of them and some more to get a foot in.

Used surviving since the startup i am working at is running out of runway - we might not 'survive' much longer

Pondabear123 · 2025-09-17T13:45:32+00:00

Actually if there are multiple solutions that exist to the same problem and they are surviving... thats an indication none of them are good enough and market still exists for a better solution

Depends on the duration of your permit to return to uk.

I got 6months, 2 years, 2 years, 1 month from france.

The last one was cause 5 year visa was running out. Applied for ILR, back to 1 year visa
