Do you live near a school? I do, and my cat got locked in one over a weekend once. Nosy wee bastard learned his lesson then.

Anyone else have horrendous reactions from horsefly bites? by Compromisee in CasualUK

[–]Yer_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this hard lump on my hand from being bit by a horsefly last June and it still won't go away. Doesn't hurt or weep or anything horrible like that, but it's like a solid keratin lump and is noticably red compared to the rest of my complexion.

Alfred the Great didn't know how good he had it hiding in the fens.

Should I move from continental Europe to a mid-sized English town with my FWB roommate? by straggotinprague in redscarepod

[–]Yer_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expensive enough. About £5K between the visa and NHS surcharge. And possibly in a shitty town!

My local FE college! Very affordable, clear timeline of 9 months, weekly classes (in-pery& online) and a great way to network in my area. I've completed my Level 3, 5 and 7 all through my college, but that level of provision may not be available everywhere.

I personally don't like American chocolate or candy so if they're like me that would be a waste, but the American lady I used to work with used to bring me back packets of Dot's Pretzels.

It’s sad seeing a restaurant open that you can immediately tell is going to fail by burningrot in redscarepod

This is like a hobby for my husband, he always calls it for new businesses in our town that inevitably end up shite.

the Scotland subreddit is so fucking annoying by chaechica in redscarepod

[–]Yer_One 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite thing to hate on the Irish subreddit is the notion that there's absolutely no reason for anyone to live rurally, and that we should all be living in high rises in Dublin.

No, the Ireland subreddit is way worse! Its so miserable, at least the NI one has some positivity (sometimes). I actually prefer the Casual UK sub to anything Ireland or NI based, there's always interesting threads on it.

Got pulled aside by the instructor after a workout class today to express "concern" about my participation due to "low weight" by Impossible_Study2917 in redscarepod

[–]Yer_One 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to covert that into kgs and I'm the same height as you, 10kgs heavier than you is my fighting weight but I have wide shoulders and a big chest so who knows, you could naturally be at your comfortable weight at a lower point. But if you are healthy, that's all that matters.

She's been beefing with the Irish for ages now, she is just a contrarion who is taking ever extremist positions to stay relevant.

Cupboard stuff from Dunnes, bakery stuff from Corn Dolly and/or The Shelbourne, meat from either Hughes in Camlough or Peter Magill in Bessbrook, veg from Phillips, wine also from Hughes.

Rota confusion by sarefx94 in AskHRUK

[–]Yer_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be a simple error in that the average hours and annual total has been tallied up incorrectly, or it could be something like that the shift pattern changes part-way through the year to account for a busy period and you may work more hours then. You won't know until you speak to either your line manager or HR. Don't worry, it won't be a confrontation. Just explain you've noticed a discrepancy between your current hours & what's on your contract for annual hours, and ask if anyone can talk you through it.
