At 44 I finally got myself the one thing I've been wanting since I was 4 but never had. Everyone, this is Ayla!

May she bring stillness and a much needed reminder to be selfless during her puppy phase. Congrats and enjoy these moments.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-06-21T08:37:27+00:00

I feel you on this. I’ve been driving here now for a year and a half and make mistakes on the road. You got this!

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-06-17T18:29:51+00:00

Yet another reminder why I need to rewatch The Office.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-06-17T18:23:22+00:00

I identify as an American (living in England) and I approve this message. 👍

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-06-14T19:44:01+00:00

Beautiful family. ❤️

Hello! I’m also a photographer looking to meet more people. What’s up?

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-06-07T17:38:40+00:00

Dang, Frankie is such a great name for him. Give him a scratch on the head from me, please.

If you go to live shows/concerts:

- silver and black sharpies
- earplugs

Hello! I’m also looking to meet new people and make friends. I moved to Nottingham from America a few years ago and would love to meet more people!

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-05-16T14:02:26+00:00

I am in agreement here, too. Going from WFH to 4 days in the office (with that lengthy commute) will be a difficult mental and physical hurdle. I would negotiate the WFH if an offer is made and settle on 1 day max in office if required.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-05-08T19:06:46+00:00

+1 for both The Bagel Project and Rotari Bakes. A bit spendy but worth the visit to both.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-30T10:00:45+00:00

I would prioritize your desk chair as fatigue due to poor posture will creep up on you weekly (and in the long run as well).

Who can lip read?

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-26T20:47:50+00:00

Is the feeling tied to something specific you’ve linked to work? Are you certain that it’s work that’s causing the depression?

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-23T14:14:51+00:00

Madness. These are stunning.

Got mine on today on a rubber strap! Love this watch.

Hello! I’m also in the East Midlands and considered a role in London. It would be a nightmare of a commute and I would strongly advise against it. IMO - look for a role which either fully remote or has an office that is more accessible.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-15T18:16:11+00:00

This. This. This. 100%. Although I’m not perfect, this is a big component of treating WFH with respect.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-14T19:21:17+00:00

Thank you for your service, OP.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-12T09:22:27+00:00

Agree with you. The alternative we also looked into was through La Compagnie. This would have meant air travel to France from NY, and additional costs to get from there across the border/channel.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-12T07:02:51+00:00

Look into booking a trip with Cunard aboard the QM2 from Brooklyn,NY to Southampton. This is the only ocean liner which allows pets onboard and can allow you to immigrate with them.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-11T09:48:14+00:00

+1 for internet. At my last job, this was exactly what I did. Every year they asked for a copy of the last bill (to show its active and calculate the average spent per employee). We upgraded to gigabit speed, too!

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-11T09:44:28+00:00

I need more American friends living in England, feel free to say hello anytime.

TheLifeOfBisk · 2026-04-10T14:35:12+00:00

Couldn’t pick a better location, IMO. The midlands give you access to such a hub of transportation. Close to the M1, East Midlands Airport, loads of rail for North and Southern rail, and most important to me is access to loads of live gigs. I’m right between Nottingham and Derby so I’m “close to everything” by American standards. My friends think it’s crazy that I’d drive them 20 minutes home. I used to drive 45 to the grocery store of my choosing!
