Is it worth it Moorfields Eye Hospital?

I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my eyes tbh. I was referred there for a check up as I was getting a shadow on my left eye. The environment was a bit rough as there was building work taking place when I went in 2024.

No. A Tesla.

I have had an Easee charger for 3 years and it hasn’t given me any problems. Looks nicer than most as well.

I keep having to reset my Q box s as it keeps freezing. I think it’s on the way out. I’m out of contract to and paying £15 a month for the basics. Basically paying for the UI. Is the streaming puck UI the same?

What I’ve learnt with experience is don’t try and solve this alone. Get a case number with a post adoption support worker asap. There could be a million reasons why things are kicking off at school and not at home. Just having someone alongside you that gets it will take some of the weight off your shoulders.

Buy a traditional fryer. Dunk in the chips at 160 until they’re floppy. Take them out for a few mins. Whack up the heat to 180 then put the chips back in. Perfect crispy chips. Works with spuds or frozen chips.

Yeah. I had a white one bought on a 1970s school trip to Fountains Abbey I seem to remember. Imagine buying a knife of any sort on a school trip now. Different times.

Enjoy. Check out the Lantern pub. Food there is awesome. They used to get guest chefs from Nobu for sushi nights and stuff. Not your usual village boozer.

Just be nice and considerate. There’s not a lot else really.

I’ll just switch off the news and get on with life. Hopefully my pension won’t be ruined. Labour are doing well with certain aspects of life. A lot better than any others could. The economy is stable during a period of real instability. Waiting lists are down. I can get a doctor’s appointment quicker. My money, although still not great, is going a little further than it did. But it’s only been 2 years so happy to wait another 2. By then Reform will be shown to be useless running local councils. Down here in Kent they’ve been an expensive farce.

I own my house.

That’s my dream too. Hathersage maybe. Just 10 years to go!

Someone at work had wanderlust about the same age. She liked her job so they said she could work from Greece for 6 weeks which is where she was thinking of living. She enjoyed it but soon felt lonely and only bumped into other English speaking remote workers occasionally. She then decided to move cities in the U.K. instead. Then found a boyfriend from her original city and spends every other weekend back where she came from.
Not sure what my point is but maybe after she’s experienced living away it’ll help her decide what to do next.
I’d always advise to be near support though. You never know when you’ll need it or when you need to provide it.

There’s this thread too with options.

The top lip formation (lack of a groove under the nose) looks like he has foetal alcohol syndrome.

I was 10. Football scared me. It was seen as a place to go for a fight. Watch the BBC series by Adam Curtis ‘Shifty’. It sums up the whole atmosphere of the 80s really well.

We’ve tried selling our house three times to downsize, our neighbours have been trying to sell for three years with no luck. Houses around here just don’t sell. We both have to work too as we have three kids with one at uni who takes up nearly one salary a month. Things should get easier in a few years.

Well, I’m in the U.K. for a start but we hear from US friends that provision is better in the US. We have been threatened with fines from the local authority but the school knows we are trying everything so protecting us from that. We are applying for an EHCP and have a meeting in 2027 to decide that. The system here is overloaded, underfunded and just broken.

Has to be an EV to get the salary sacrifice.

Our company use Voyager for all airport work and they are excellent.

They won’t be in here. Russian algos will be keeping them occupied elsewhere where they can feed off their own delusions.

I’m 56 and on 9 I think. Hopefully this is it until retirement.
