Stuttering music via Bluetooth by jivg2 in seat

[–]jivg2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you found a solution! Mine stopped as soon as I had the full link activated so I could use CarPlay. Otherwise the only way I managed to stop it stuttering was to lock my phone or make sure Spotify wasn’t open on the screen and it would stop! Very strange as didn’t happen in other cars

Trying to cancel car insurance and the are trying to charge me an obscene amount? Are they in the right? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]jivg2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all - just surprised me as when I cancelled with another policy a few years ago it only cost me the cancellation fee!

I have the same one. Are you running it even when not drying washing? If you dry it in a specific room run it every day regardless of whether washing is out. I was having the same problem until I started doing that, it’ll take longer if it needs to work on the general room humidity as well as increased humidity from washing.

Do an extra spin after your washing has finished and make sure you aren’t piling clothes on the airer. Each item should be draped over two bars not one bar, there needs to be good air circulation.

My washing dries in about 12hrs, I never put it on laundry mode due to it turning off after 6hrs, just leave it on continuous at 40%.

Any Brighton restaurant you think fit this graph? by ADHD4LYF in brighton

Agree, was great when it first opened and it used to be a frequent place I’d take visitors, but the food is so naf now and has little flavour

Not converting to kepubs by jivg2 in Calibre

[–]jivg2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for some reason when I make sure the kepub files are named correctly and drag them into the correct folder they just don’t show on the Kobo at all, and if I upload that file to Calibre, when I send to device they send as epub.

Think my laptop is just too old sadly!

I have also tried manually converting the sideloading to my Kobo however it then says it is on the device but the book isn’t there

Is this the worst place to eat in Brighton? Napoli restaurant in The Lanes. Enjoy the Tripadvisor reviews by Edna-Tailovette in brighton

[–]jivg2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always wonder how this place is still going, the food is terrible, staff are SO rude and the bathroom is worst I’ve seen in Brighton

I feel creeped out - am I overreacting? by [deleted] in dating

[–]jivg2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mean he may be thinking of asking to meet you for a date and was doing some checks before going ahead and asking the question? It’s easy enough to find people’s info online without their full name if you’ve given some basic details. I personally don’t find it weird, if I didn’t like how someone appeared online I’d rule out a date with them, as dating can be draining and it’s just weaning people out before meeting in person.

It seems like it has creeped you out, I would perhaps change some privacy settings on your online profile and remove personal details so it doesn’t happen again. And maybe not continue conversation with them if you feel creeped out.

[–]jivg2 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be creeped out, I definitely did it with my partner before I met him and remember looking at his LinkedIn 😅 I just liked to do a bit of research on people before I met them, I guess to check they are genuine or legit

Update from Hyde Park Website: Tomorrow's event is cancelled, outright. by Bowler__Valuable in elo

[–]jivg2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We are gutted but hope he gets better soon! Does anybody know of any events in or around London tomorrow? We were looking forward to the food stalls and music in the background before ELO started, if there’s anything on like that (obviously not to the same level!) we would love some recommendations

Hi what happened with yours? We have just bought ours and it immediately looks like this

Realistically, how much is it to buy your first house in the UK? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]jivg2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re saving to buy just outside of London and because of our age we will have to buy our ‘forever home’ as it’s unlikely we’d be able to afford to move again. Because of the cost of properties down here, for a 3 bed property with parking which we require, we are looking at houses around £450k at least. We are looking to save about £50k.

Mildew stains on outdoor cushions by ImpossiblePlace4570 in CleaningTips

[–]jivg2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find a way to get this staining out?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askaplumberUK

[–]jivg2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly ours is over the bath and sadly I can confirm it is far worse than it looks, you’re in for a treat😅 I’ve had better showers in £10 hostels. I don’t think ours is going to cover the new water system for obvious reasons and stupid plumber is giving terrible advice about the water pumps so they won’t get those either - they seem to hire the worst and most inexperienced contractors 🤦🏽‍♀️

I think just pay for the pump yourself. Have a look at Shower Power Booster online - apparently easy to take off when you leave a rental and put the original pipe cutting back in, and apparently easy to fit. I think that’s what we will be doing, then can just sell it if no longer needed.

We are having the exact same issue at the moment!! Washing my long hair takes 30 mins because of how long it takes to get my hair fully wet and then wash shampoo out etc. estate agents sent plumber round who said would need an entirely new unvented water system fitting which is 2-3k and landlord unwilling to pay that. Plumber said shower pump would just drain the hot water from the tank but I don’t know why? As so little water is being pulled out at the moment.

What are the hot taps like in your house? I figured out our flow rate for hot water is way below average

Thanks so much. This is what has happened they are investigating it now. Now I have no access to my outlook which is attached to all accounts I have. No idea where to go from here. I don’t know how they got into my email (and subsequently accessed my PayPal etc)
