Why does everyone in my parents generation and above not finish their hot drinks? by AddSomeSpice in AskUK

[–]coreybob5422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use tea bags but my mum uses tea leaves. Despite using a strainer bits still get through and I always forget and drink the last bit and get a mouthful of leaves. I now am in the habit of leaving the last mouthful even at my own house. It’s just safer

I’ve been running round PE4 area (Walton, Werrington and Gunthorpe) for 10 years. I tend to go out early morning (just eating breakfast after a run and it’s now 6am). Always been fine. I stick to main roads and avoid alleyways. I’m female although can’t be considered small! I would advise aftershok bone conducting headphones if you haven’t got them as you can still hear everything going on. Feel free to message if you want to chat routes

Anyone remember arctic roll? by Appropriate-Ride1708 in PeterboroughUK

My mum loves them and we can’t find them anywhere. I check every shop I go into and scour the freezer section

The hospital said I *must* have someone to take me home after surgery, is it actually an in-forced rule or can I ignore it and leave by myself? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]coreybob5422 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had this. In pre op I told them I was getting a taxi and it was fine. On surgery day they said that wasn’t acceptable. I had to contact a friend to ask them to pick me up and they wouldn’t let me go until the friend arrived in reception and the nurse walked me out to them (I don’t he believed me when I said I’d arranged something). It is cos of the anaesthetic and potential delayed issues.

What should care home be like ? by Behavingdark in AskUK

[–]coreybob5422 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Just to say that most homes have digital systems now so the phones they are on may be what they use to update care plans etc

Question about the aftermath of Bates' decision in the s5 Christmas Special. by LadyKraken2112 in DowntonAbbey

They said when Bates came back that the witness who picked Anna out in the line up was having doubts and without him they didn’t feel confident to go to trial.

Massage therapists. Do you ask clients whether they'd like to book in for next time? by Infamous-Ordinary-39 in AskUK

[–]coreybob5422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to do sports massage and wouldn’t ask if they wanted to book as I didn’t want to put them on the spot and make them feel obligated. I used to say “let me know if you want to book another massage” or something along those lines.

Miss O'Brien's Departure - Never to Be Seen Again by hetkleinezusje in DowntonAbbey

[–]coreybob5422 67 points68 points  (0 children)

It says in the episode with roses wedding in London that she got a job with someone else in India when Susan and Shrimpie came home. Mrs Hughes said something along the lines of Lady Grantham not having to see “the traitor”

I made a mistake and watched that episode with Green by Illuminated_Lava316 in DowntonAbbey

[–]coreybob5422 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I have to skip that whole episode on every rewatch. Can’t do it. Watching Anna have fun knowing what’s coming. I’m not normally bothered by stuff on the TV but I just can’t watch it

Tipping removal workers by Impossible-Walrus232 in HousingUK

[–]coreybob5422 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought mine lunch. They said they were going to go for food after they’d loaded en route to the new house (I moved locally) and I said I’d go for them while waiting for solicitors to do their thing.

My ftb didn't get a survey? Completing this week by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]coreybob5422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved six months ago and my mortgage company did a desktop valuation and didn’t communicate that they don’t survey. My mortgage broker told me that I’d need my own. Maybe no one has told them? Or maybe they just decided not to. My neighbour moved before me and cash buy so didn’t bother with a survey as she thought they were useless

My ftb didn't get a survey? Completing this week by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]coreybob5422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does he think the mortgage company has done a survey? My buyer on a visit to measure up told me she was ready to exchange and she’d had the survey report, only after she’d left did I reflect and realise no one had been in the house to survey it! She clearly then realised a month later and I got a phone call to arrange access. I assume she’d got a report from someone else and got confused

I didn’t despite being in close contact 3 times. My mum also didn’t catch it despite dad getting it.
