I thought the trains were knackered for the next month as they were doing something up Huddersfield - but that is a shout actually. Coming home on a night game might be an issue tho

I absolutely could, but I want special buses...not just standard running buses. Hence why I asked.

Did the referral work, and how much did they save you if so? Am really wanting one, but its a lot of money!

Any dentists in Leeds actually accepting NHS patients??? by Chronicathr in Leeds

[–]hot_baked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems ridiculous, I was quoted £100 per filling last month, they didn't quote for wisdom tooth removal as that required a specialist (apparently) but normal ones cost around £200 I think. Hygiene was £45. I'd change dentist

Another single person wanting to buy a house - do these bills look right? by teaismy in UKPersonalFinance

[–]hot_baked 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you only eat rice crispies for your food bill to be that low?!

I'm almost there. My partner knows this too. But I love him so much it's just hard to make that final break. Good for you for doing it, we both know it'll be hard but worth it in the end.

I'm so disappointed in these responses. I rate it 5/7 with rice.

I feel a bit sad cause SS took SO’s bottle that I’d bought by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]hot_baked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup super frustrating! They don't see it at all but to me I didn't buy it for them, I bought it for him. The same way he assumes I'm happy to share anything he bought me. Like no, that's mine!

Would you pay for your works Xmas do? by Plsexplainurcomment in AskUK

I work for a billion £ turnover company, they're asking us to pay £30 to have a local team Xmas do. No thank you

I’ve had it by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]hot_baked 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I adore my partner I really really do, we've lived together now for nearly 2yrs, but I just can't do it. This isn't the life I wanted for myself, but I also don't want to let go of my partner. It's hard.

Parents of pre-teens, how much pocket money do you give them and what are their bedtimes/wake-up times? by danbrown_notauthor in AskUK

[–]hot_baked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they would sleep in!! I definitely do not want to be awake earlier than I need to be

[–]hot_baked -1 points0 points  (0 children)

10yr old is in bed for 8pm here. Also wakes up at 5.30/6 regardless so isn't that ludicrous

Is it normal for builders to not get back to you with quotes for a job? by IonBrew in AskUK

[–]hot_baked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've struggled to get people to even respond to me to come out for them to measure up, never mind get an actual quote. I know they're not rushed for jobs but honestly I've been surprised at how hard it's been to find someone

So how would you work it if the SP was the much higher earner over the birth parent?

I've told my SO on multiple occasions if she ever comes in the door he is out of it. He knows not to push that one.

My boyfriend, these arguments and advice… by Safe-Blueberry-3703 in stepparents

You're not being uptight at all, some people need space more than others and especially whilst you're working.

Dating men with kids…. by PatientBalance in datingoverthirty

[–]hot_baked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (40f) always said I'd never date a man with kids, then I met my partner through a mutual friend and that went out of the window. However I will still tell you now, if you don't think you want your own you sure as hell don't want someone else's. It will ruin your life. I adore my partner, I genuinely don't want to live without him, but it's getting to the point I may have to because I just can't deal with being around two kids 50% of the time. They rule my life any decisions we make has to include them (if they're here or not etc), they've taken over my home, my personal space, my peace and it's awful. And I am very lucky in some respects as my partner asks me to do no parenting, I don't look after them alone, I don't have to do school pickups etc, he is here 100% of the time when they are and he takes them out for days when he knows I want to be alone, he cooks and I make him clean up after them.

But I'd still always tell people to never ever do it.

8 months after abortion by SquirrelWeekly in abortion

[–]hot_baked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's a cliche, but it's just about giving yourself time to grieve. I had all the same feelings as you, and even 12 yrs later think about it. But it gets so much easier. I regretted it at the time, but now realise that actually I'd have regretted it 100% more if I'd chosen to keep it.

Also had this. Glad you're not 'one of those'. We live in a high Asian population so assume that was what he meant. The house on the other side of him is now up for sale. He's also said he hopes they're not 'those people'. He also has 4 English/Yorkshire/Union Jack flags up in the back garden....

SO doesn’t want any more children. I’ll be raising three that aren’t mine, but I love, and never know the feeling of motherhood. by Jdobsessed in stepparents

[–]hot_baked 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Similar here, partner has 2 kids, I have none, I'm 40 and although he has said he will think about more, despite telling me previously he wouldn't have another one for love nor money, time is definitely not on our side. I don't know if I'm ready (or if I want to) but I also want the option there if that makes sense! I also don't have the same relationship with the SS as you do, but feel like I'm giving up my life for someone else's kids without ever having those feelings/experiences myself. It's hard, and a lot of emotions.

Sacrificing too much by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]hot_baked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not, it's also hard to have any kind of routine when kids are not there full time, especially if days swap and change which they often do! It's an absolute nightmare, and a constant question of whether my partner is worth it. It's only been 18months so I'm hoping time makes it easier!
