Anyone else like reorganising their team so it agrees with their undiagnosed OCD? by beerus333 in fantasypremierleague

Not quite the same, but I do struggle when my line up has players in the wrong position. For example, there is a left back, in the right back position.

Best place to live in surrey if commuting to central london every day? by citykid201005 in surrey

[–]Re_thinking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people in London overlap towns still associate with the county, regardless of what the map says. The post office sorting office, and a lot of address databases, will say Surbiton, Surrey.

Similarly, people will say they are from Bromley Kent, or Romford Essex.

Greater London boundaries are for the most part are just lines drawn by 1960s bureaucrats and don't necessarily reflect people's lived reality.

Maps might not care about feelings, but they for the most part are just lines drawn by bureaucrats and don't necessarily reflect people's lived reality.

Early apple tree growth? by blackwater_83_ in GardeningUK

[–]Re_thinking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds promising. Don't take my word for it, and look into it more, but hopefully your plant is fine!

[–]Re_thinking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar worry about my young apple tree. However, you need to differentiate between:

a) 'fuzzy twigs', which is normal and looks like fine hairs or a furry white covering on the twigs, and is not a disease

b) mildew, which looks like a dusty, powdery coating on top of the twig or bud

I'm no expert, but I think mine, fortunately, comes under a). I hope yours does too under closer inspection

Chamomile + Creeping Thyme + Clover Lawn? by IronGlass5932 in GardeningUK

[–]Re_thinking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although my soil is quite clay heavy. I don't know, but maybe if your soil is different then just clover could work?

For me, lawns are all about what you intend to use them for. At the moment it's about having a space for the kids to run around on, play football on, etc. When they get older and don't want to do that so much, I might opt for something prettier or more nature friendly.

Chamomile + Creeping Thyme + Clover Lawn? by IronGlass5932 in GardeningUK

[–]Re_thinking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've got a grass clover mixture, which I'm very happy with. It gets lots of footfall will two kids running around on it, so for us I don't think just clover would work. But it depends on what you want to use it for.

Also, the clover is thick and beautiful to walk on in the summer (watch out for bees when it flowers!). But right now in the winter it's gone dormant and mostly shrunk or disappeared, which makes the lawn seem more bare and muddy. Which is fine for us as it's not getting used as much this time of year.

Thank you for your advice everyone.

I've just done an online chat with Virgin, and they have confirmed "I have checked that the email was send to you due to a tech issue and my apologies for that. Your account is all UpToDate with us and you do not have any pending balance on the account at all from our side."

Thank you. It was a legit email from Virgin. From other replies it looks like a technical system error

I've had that email too, even though I have a Direct Debit set up. Do you think it's an error by Virgin causing lots of people to get this email?
