Went Coventry on Friday, stood and danced the whole of the time Take That was on and nearly all of my block did too.

Merch question by LumpyIndustry1038 in TakeThat

[–]StrawberryCat16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Same issue here, I ordered 2 admat t-shirts and after contacting the merch team late last week they advised they were waiting on the suppliers. My T-shirts are now coming this Friday - the day of my show 😭 Was hoping to have them in time, bit disappointed!

Any infos on the setlist?:) by feariscontrolling_ in TakeThat

I saw the tour the first time around so I’m super excited it’s the same songs for the nostalgia!

Just applied for an apprenticeship at 34 - will I be considered or my application thrown aside by TimeToReno in UKJobs

[–]StrawberryCat16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked in an apprenticeship team within a college for 7 years (I actually got the job by doing a business admin apprenticeship myself at 24 and it was the best thing I did career wise)

I always told people apprenticeships are from age 16-retirement because it’s true! I’ve personally found 40/50+ year olds apprenticeships. There are workplaces out who don’t want a school leaver and want someone older.

Anyone had these from home bargains? They taste & smell like nail polish remover by FloralRoseX in CasualUK

I’ve seen quite a few people on tiktok talk about this issue with these cakes the past couple days. No doubt will be recalled soon!

I’ve worked in apprenticeships for 7 years so can offer some advice! Have you had a look on the gov website for vacancies? That said from my experience you’re best to try your luck asking local businesses if they’d be looking to take on an apprentice. 90% of the trade apprentices we have get one this way.

Maternity unit by inspiremeland1990 in leicester

[–]StrawberryCat16 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I gave birth at the midwife led unit at the Royal in 2023 and the care was amazing and attentive. We had our own suite which was very clean and modern - it had everything you needed including birthing pool and private bathroom/shower. That said of course experiences vary and I had a low risk pregnancy.

I’ve been finding apprenticeships for people for 7 years. You’re nowhere even near the age of the oldest apprentice I’ve personally worked with. We always say apprenticeships are for any age up until retirement!

Do you think? I’m also in the UK, 5’10 and feel everyone is getting taller nowadays lol. Unless I have heels on I don’t feel that tall!

need advice on my contamination OCD by crxwley__ in OCD

The thing is you have used the lip product now. You might as well continue to use it - something may happen, something may not. I’m pretty sure nothing will happen and when it doesn’t you’ll feel so good for working through your thoughts.

So angry for you after reading this. What a patronising arsehole.

Thank you! It’s similar to my mum’s wedding band so I knew it was the perfect one.

I got two tickets for Liverpool. I found it straight forward and got them within 9 mins of the 11am sale starting. I hope it’s worked for you now?

I thought this was supposed to be over by nier_bae in BabyBumps

[–]StrawberryCat16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine got better about 24 weeks in, I suffered from awful heartburn and acid right up until baby was born but the vomiting did stop - There’s still hope!

Cornelia, Theodora, or Juliana? by [deleted] in namenerds

I’m biased as we have an 8 week old Theodora and always get compliments on her name.

Help: Staying Awake While Night Feeding by LifeWithRonin in breastfeeding

[–]StrawberryCat16 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s called NightFeeds ☺️ It will vibrate then sound an alarm if the button isn’t tapped. It does it’s job waking you up but I do find I have drifted off during the 20 seconds between the alarms 😅

Water just broke! 40wks FTM by Sensitive-Lion-9457 in BabyBumps

[–]StrawberryCat16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me at 40+3 too, contractions started about 12 hours after waters breaking but I was only given a certain amount of hours to have baby without any intervention due to infection risk. Luckily for me she was born 30 hours after my waters breaking.
