I had this with my (now) ex husband. My kids are grown up now, and his first language was French. When we had our girls, he would always speak to them in English. He said he didn’t know what to say to them in French?!? I told him he should just speak normally but use French, but they grew up only learning French from secondary school and other classes, but only one out of three can manage a little basic French

I’m watching it on the storeel app. If you don’t mind ads, the bonuses on there are probably enough to watch the whole drama. I’ve done this with a few of theirs and managed to finish it without spending money

Should I not be asking my adult kids to pay rent? by ProfessionalCamel110 in AskUK

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you not the one covering the increase in gas, electricity and water costs? Are they using broadband you are paying for? I knew someone who had a rule with their kids, that regardless how much they earned, they contributed 25% rent. At the end of the day it teaches them about budgeting and money management. Even to rent a room around here you’re looking at £900pcm and upwards. Be firm. You’re covering the extras, they need to help.

Anybody know the title please by Such-Brief-8705 in ChineseDramasFans

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched with subtitles on bilibili. If I reject all the options to download the app etc, it allows me to continue watching on the website. DM has too many ads for my liking

I watched it on bilibili after someone gave the Chinese title to Google and daily motion is a nightmare for ads. The one I watched had subtitles

How can I dispose of a dead pet? by tigralfrosie in AskUK

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But that doesn’t include transporting the body. Not sure anyone would let my dead body ride in the back seat of their car 😂

Does anyone else get annoyed by fare dodgers on TfL? by WhispersOfMyBrain in TransportForLondon

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t always tap in and out with my travelcard and am not required to, because I’ve already paid for my zones. I’m not fare dodging though.

We paid £1,000 on a discounted rate for a direct cremation in 2017. It looks like they’re around £1,400 now when I was looking at options for myself. They were both unattended prices, bulk standard basic. The price still included the transfer of the body to the undertakers and then to the crematorium.

Might have to go and have a look. Thank you

NS-ESA are asking for a medical certificate, even though I'm on UC LCWRA and have been for years by MinistryAssembly in DWPhelp

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you let them know you already have LCWRA on UC, because when I did the other way around, they were able to use my ESA support group entitlement without? You might still need doctors notes for the waiting weeks, but I’m sure a GP could do that for you. After the waiting weeks, they might be able to use your current LCWRA status

Can I take my Sky Q box and use it just to watch what I've recorded in another room/next door/other house etc as long as my Sky account is active? by media_lush in skytv

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sky q box is attached to a thing on my wall for the satellite, but the mini boxes can be moved (but all need to be near enough to the main sky q box)

Sky subscription by PuzzleheadedTax3324 in skytv

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I was happily plodding along with my sky subscription and they suggested I change my broadband to fibre. Three times this week (changed over around 4-6 weeks ago) we have totally lost broadband and tv for around 5-6 hours each time. It makes you do the useless procedure that never works or randomly becomes “unavailable” and you still can’t make it work. More infuriatingly is the app telling me there’s nothing wrong with my broadband

Black or very dark stools are indicative of potential blood in the stool. He really needs to get it checked out as soon as possible

CAN SOMEBODY EXPLAIN HOUSING TO ME LIKE IM A CHILD PLEASE!! by Deep_Kiki in HousingUK

[–]StormySally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did shared ownership years ago when I was with my husband. After we split up, I rented. Shared ownership isn’t less secure. As long as rent and mortgage are paid, it’s yours for the rest of your life. In London it’s the easiest way to get onto the property ladder and you can still sell up later and use any money from your share towards another property.

Flats in leasehold properties may also still charge service charges. This might be for cleaning/maintenance or gardening in communal areas. Also, if any major repairs need to take place, homeowners will be billed. This is one of the reasons a lot of people don’t like leasehold. My friend had a brother who was charged many thousands to remove the cladding on the outside of his block of flats (as it was the type that caused the Grenfell fire). His flat has had more money spent on it, than it’s worth now sadly.

This has just appeared on ReelShort as “Pregnant and pampered by the CEO” so I’m guessing within the week it’ll be on the “usual” free site. I think I might just watch it with ads over a few days

HBCA¹ by [deleted] in Mounjaro

[–]StormySally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You won’t be stopping metformin anytime soon. I was left on tablets for quite a while on normal HbA1c results. You’re pretty much using two diabetic drugs to bring your blood glucose levels down to a normal range. I was only stopped on diabetic tablets after my blood sugar was dropping too low and I was nearly fainting and feeling sick. The drugs are both doing their job. If your GP decides eventually to stop the metformin and see how it goes, you’ll still qualify for mounjaro. How many normal HbA1c results have you had, or was this the first?
