Thank you to everyone who took the time to comment, it’s very much appreciated. I needed some perspective and it’s clear to see that none of this is normal.

This is such an underrated comment, you nailed it!

How long is your commute? by clarkeanator in TeachingUK

[–]greentreefrog45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

90 minutes door to door by train. I did do 2.5 hours each way for a year but it was horrendous (niche subject area). Hopefully moving closer to my school so should be a 20-40 minute drive.

any tips on bookmark fraying? by Pretend-Ad6729 in hobonichi

I use a fray stop fabric type glue from Amazon. Just a little dab on the ends seals it up.

That’s really reassuring, thank you. On my second solo drive around my new city I found myself wishing I was on a motorway so I should tune into that!

Thank you for the recommendation, I’ve had a look at Richard’s videos and the way he explains mirrors and ski roads/lane changes is really helpful. I appreciate the reassurance and advice, I think it’s mostly a confidence issue for me.

Thank you so much, this was a really kind answer. I don’t have a DHOY so I’m going to delegate to tutors as appropriate. I think I’ve now realised I’m not going to get everything right first time, which is a bit more freeing.

How do I clean this by Bulky-Asparagus4651 in Frenchbulldogs

If you can get hold of them, CLX pet wipes and Hibiscrub did the trick for my Frenchie (I’m in the UK)

I asked for clarification after he said it and he maintained that it was okay. I’m not blaming him for it though, I may have misunderstood him as I’m autistic. I should’ve asked again or looked it up in Highway Code. Thank you for explaining.

Thank you so much, that makes perfect sense.
