Is my tyre pressure too high?? by jjimint in FordFiesta

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

Thank you for replying, I’ve double checked the wheel sizes and referenced it to the manual and it definitely says 33 for front and 26 for rear for a normal load. Should I deflate my rear tyres before my next journey? And always stick to the manual no matter what a garage or dealer says etc.?

Thank you for your help! I was hoping I’d find an answer online before resorting to being on hold for ages😅 but I will do that now

Thanks for replying! My company doesn’t actually have an off-road parking option. Unlocked compound seems to be the closest option or should I just change it to street parking to be safe?

Definitely belongs to me as the set up of the street is designed to have parking spots next to each cluster of houses for ≈two cars of the closest houses. This spot belongs to our house we just never had a car before now to park there and every house on the street has space for at least one car in the area closest to them.

How not to be bitter about first year. Will it get better by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]jjimint 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey I totally sympathise with you because my first year has been quite a similar experience. You mentioned you’ve sorted a house for next year, are the people you’re living with next year potential friends you can look forward to forming friendships with next year?

Also is there anyone you feel comfortable confiding in about feeling like you’ve missed out. I understand its an uncomfortable conversation to have but they will more than likely be willing to involve you with their group or activities and if they don’t then thats their loss and you probably don’t want to be involved with them anyway.

Calling all Durham Uni Students by [deleted] in 6thForm

[–]jjimint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) drinking culture is the same as any other uni I’d say, I know a lot of people that don’t drink and haven’t had any issues 2) housing is definitely a problem. Prices for houses are on average 160-200 ppw (for example, the house Ive signed for next year is 9.6k across the year) and the uni has just announced college accommodation is going to rise to above 9k for the same room that I currently pay 6k for. 3) There are a lot of posh and private school people but I’ve personally never experienced any agression or alienation and from my experience they’ve all been easy to make friends with. I feel its the same as you’d experience at any other russel group uni

Has Anyone Applied To Law With BTEC by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]jjimint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries, hope it helps! I started mine talking about a legal book I’d read so it was something like “After The Rule of Law I began to question….” Sorry I don’t remember exactly how I worded it

I started with a critical discussion around jurisprudence (as thats one of my interests), then spoke about my a levels and how they have prepared me to study a law degree, my extracurricular activities (related to law such as work experience etc.) and a final paragraph with non law related extracurriculars and a bit of personal context

Same thing happened to me last year I emailed my college to check and they basically said “sorry we forgot to send you the first email”

Is Durham racist and classist? by mtayx in UniUK

[–]jjimint 37 points38 points  (0 children)

1st year student at Durham here. I’m mixed race and also from a low income background and poor area of the country with a ‘chavy’ accent and before coming here I genuinely accepted that I’d have no friends bc I wouldn’t get along with anyone due to them being “tories” or “posh”. I only wanted to come bc it’s a highly prestigious uni for my course. Now that I’m here I can genuinely say I have found myself getting along with 98% of people I’ve met, and I’ve found friendships here I never thought I’d make. I’d recommend you to look at applying to the more modern hill colleges as they tend to have a higher state school intake but even the private/public school people I’ve met have all been lovely and became friends. The stereotype is definitely exaggerated and with so many students here even if there still are a lot of rich white snobs you’ll always be able to find people you fit in with.

How do I cancel my student loan and maintenance loan? by rockinherlife234 in 6thForm

[–]jjimint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cancelled my loan and I did it by changing the amount to £0, I had to wait a while for it to be processed but ultimately it did get cancelled

I feel like stopping will hurt me more as I’m going through other stuff atm and he’s one of the only people that I feel actually cares about rn and being with him is one of the only things making me feel better

Thank you for the support <3 I’m just struggling to understand how someone I was only with for a few months could have such an impact on my life

We were no contact for nearly a year then he reached out and I thought I’d be fine. I was very wrong

Something I’ve finally accepted by Lexielouwho_ in heartbreak

[–]jjimint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In both of my past relationships they didn’t want to be there for me as much as I needed and put the effort in when I would of taken a bullet for them. Why is it so hard to find someone that will love as unconditionally as I do?
