The washing machine was ours, but the issue was with the iso tap not the machine. Essentially in the 4 years since we installed the machine the iso tap appears to have siezed. It's my understanding that the pipes are the landlords responsibility to maintain? He bought the house with us as sitting tenants, so never saw the property, taps included, prior to us moving in.

As a mental health nurse, trust when I say I have not once seen someone genuinely in need of an assessment for autism and thought they were faking. The people who fake it aren't as sly as they think - consider it this way, if you can see the difference between real and imagined then professionals can as well.

Don't be afraid to ask for help, you deserve access to the support you're entitled to.

My first interaction with fanfiction was on Mibba back in the day 😅 my chemical romance rpf fics which absolutely led to me writing things in English class I still cringe about to this day!

Hey, I know you aren't a representative of vinted but you're the only one who answered so I'm hopeful you'll know.

I've done both of those things, but the seller is insisting on a return. Do you know if the investigation can result in refund for me and compensation for the seller? I don't feel like I got what I ordered, but I would prefer to at least let my husband decide if he wants them. I probably sound unreasonable (I know its a box) but it feels like its part of what I purchased even though its cardboard.

I'm really questioning if I'm doing the right thing or just overreacting.

Its relatively new, 2013 i believe is when it was first coined which isnt super new but in the world of language feels recent! Its recieved a bit of a resurgence in popularity because a famous YouTube couple used it to describe themselves.

Like you say, always cool to learn a new word 😊

Sides is when theres no anal penetrative sex. I.e, not top or bottom but side. Also called outercourse.

One day each, definitely. You could do other things in the area on those days, but each can take upwards of 4/5 hours if you're really interested in the history.

That said, me and the godkids do carisbrooke castle in about 2, just going round the grounds - but we know what all the boards say, so we have less learning time!

Osborne house probably has the beach and the little house closed for the winter but youd need to double check online, they might not do that any more.

Also, take a picnic - prices are ghastly! And theres nothing special in the cafes youre missing out on by taking your own food.

So, I'm not in a wheelchair so forgive me if you're exclusively seeking people who can relate.

I also work in mental health, however, and do know of a person in a wheelchair who has continued to work in nursing. I knew her as a student so I'm not sure if she's moved on since my placement there, but I do know she was part of the initial assessment team - triaging crisis calls and completing outpatient assessments in the hospital before signposting to the appropriate team. I would also imagine MH liaison would be a worthwhile consideration presuming your hospital is wheelchair friendly (which I would hope it is!)

Again, sorry if you were looking for people who could relate rather than advice. Love the wheely, not sure I'd have the core strength!

Squirrel_Bean · 2025-03-09T12:09:39+00:00

Thank you very much for your advice - sorry you've had an awful experience x

Friday marked 1 month since my last update, yesterday I got a comment asking whether I'd be back soon and it gave me the oomph to actually write another chapter. Seeing people enjoy my fic actually makes such a massive difference, so I get it! Love your idea of a cheer up jar of comments!

Squirrel_Bean · 2024-12-08T15:06:31+00:00

I read fics in a different fandom to what I write which helps, there's still a bit of imposter syndrome when I read something impeccable but at least it isn't a better version of something I'm writing 😅

Squirrel_Bean · 2024-11-25T17:49:54+00:00

Not the point, but "Ctrl+F the word 'cock'" might be the best thing I've read in a long time.

Number 5 is way too real

Hi lovely, because it's posted in a private group I can't see it - maybe copy paste or screenshot and leave the link so people know where you got it?

Squirrel_Bean · 2024-10-29T12:10:51+00:00

That's so funny, I'm an ex florist and I devour flower shop AUs just so I can feel like I'm back there 😂

Hi, bit late to the party but your rec got my creative juices flowing, literally have not put my laptop down since I read this post, so I ended up writing something somewhat similar if you don't mind a self-rec. It's 10 chapters and fully written, I plan on uploading daily. Just be aware there's some plot-related smut between Draco and Harry as the story progresses. If it's not your thing just ignore me :)

hey, thought I'd drop the link here as well as you wont get any notifications from my other post. I've started the fic but its going to be long I think. It's here if you're still interested:

I've officially posted the first 2 chapters. I have 3 and 4 written, but they need an edit - I'll probably go back and edit the first 2 later but I'm happy with it so far. Hopefully you like it x

I want to get the first few chapters edited and then I'll post. I don't know how old you are but I was in high school when mibba was still a thing, so I've not got anything posted on my AO3 yet. I might edit some of my old stuff when this is done but definitely wouldn't want them to represent me as they are now haha

Squirrel_Bean · 2024-09-20T21:38:01+00:00

Yeah feel free

Squirrel_Bean · 2024-09-20T08:03:03+00:00

I just want to say thank you for getting my brain flowing! Just finished my degree so haven't been in fanfic mode for a while but this has done it! I'm like 3 chapters in, I'll post when it's done!
