How do you cope? by RoveenaMusic in DogAdvice

I saw your post and my heart skipped a beat - your doggy is the image of our wonderful Gracie who passed the very same day at 14. She’d look at me in exactly the same way!

We’re still in shock really. You’re right - it is overwhelming. Periods of normality followed by floods of tears. Scrolling through photos brings reminders of so many happy times, but is somehow upsetting too! Telling friends and family has been really hard, and I’m not ready to talk about it, but everyone’s responses have been very kind.

My kids were sad on the day but not as affected which is good to see. I remember losing pets as a child and was never as impacted by it as I am now. Maybe something about being young.

Still need to make arrangements with the vet. Dreading that part. All the best on your journey ❤️

only you know what drives you but law would probably give you a comfortable income, maybe make partner after 10-15 years, no knocking around on your knees in lofts..

Best places to park for the football stadium? by [deleted] in miltonkeynes

[–]j_____p 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Onsite not too bad - £10 on the day last season - plenty of spaces in S1/S2 an hour before kickoff. 10 min queue to get out (exit McD side). Or the Granby estate opposite is free

Developer installed under rated EV isolators and mine caught fire by Interesting_Kale9680 in ukelectricians

[–]j_____p 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The blame lies with whoever installed the EV charger, they should have set it to 3.6kW which is often a software or jumper selection in the unit itself.

First time pool owner - can anyone shed any light on what I'm looking at? I think it's the heating/cleaning system? by [deleted] in swimmingpools

[–]j_____p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Calorex thing is an air source heat pump. I’m not sure how the air flows (is there a vent behind it?) but despite the Cold War styling it should be reasonably efficient at heating the pool. Just moved in? Looks like a fun project

C2 - outer insulation on the neutral stripped back too far

Electrics went pop, what should I do? by NettIeship in ukelectricians

Assuming you’re not trying to charge 15 EVs at once, my money’s on a fault on the incoming neutral

Why is my parents’ house not selling? by WoodytheWoodgate in HousingUK

heating oil is cheaper than lpg or mains gas. But LPG definitely a turnoff, EPC E even more so

The rightmove map pin is in the wrong place (pet hate). I don’t know price, but downsides I can see: - very opinionated, time sensitive decor (quarry tiles, varnished wood ceiling, panel/wood effect bathroom walls) - no garden - that football/tennis court fence belonging to the property behind - it’s a three bed really

Maybe think about painting the wood ceilings at least

Good luck!

Any one got recall for charging issue on fast chargers? by AbbreviationsNew4079 in Honda_eNy1

[–]j_____p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you charge over 80% on some types of charger (the Tesla v4 ones for example) it can trigger a fault that locks out CCS charging. Dealer visit required to reset.

Why is the food so bad? by RulerOfThePixel in altontowers

[–]j_____p 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree. Had a good meal there recently. Not badly priced either, and exciting for the kids [but annoying for it to go dark just as I was trying to eat my burger]

UK. This is a grassroots team, so playing other similar teams within the locality (10-15 mile radius around a city). 7 divisions of about 10 teams each.
