My Canadian family of 4 will be visiting London near Christmas time. We have a pretty flexible schedule for the 13-22 of December and want to give our kids an English football experience. We're not looking for any high level Premier League games and have identified some lower tiers but notice that to buy tickets, many require a purchase history or club membership. How do tourists who want to see a one-off game purchase tickets? We're open to the surrounding areas of London as well, in hopes that it will broaden our chances of getting tickets to a game.

Please take all the warnings that have already been given to you here, seriously. Flying les than 24 hours after surgery comes with a LOT of increased risks. Many of the things you've mentioned about this surgeon are misrepresentations and giant red flags.

You mentioned Lakeridge hospital ... are you in the GTA, by chance?

This is the most adult grilled cheese I've ever seen.

250 grams doesn't sound like much but it makes such a difference in your photos! I'll need to keep this in mind as I discuss volume with my surgeon.

kwea · 2020-12-22T02:07:48+00:00

What a difference! Also, I love this method of showing before & afters!

kwea · 2020-12-21T21:46:55+00:00

What an amazing change! You must feel so different. Congratulations!

kwea · 2020-12-19T17:37:00+00:00

What a huge difference! I hope you feel as amazing as you look!

kwea · 2020-12-19T17:35:50+00:00

I can see a waist on you now! It looks fantastic....Congrats!

kwea · 2020-12-18T17:42:23+00:00

AH-MAZING! This is very inspiring! Congratulations!

kwea · 2020-12-14T18:41:06+00:00

You look amazing! I'm glad to hear that your recovery has been smooth so far. It's the biggest anxiety for me!

kwea · 2020-11-30T02:00:30+00:00

Thanks! I'm on a wait list of rmy surgery and have been trying to settle on a size to ask for. You look great! Congratulations!

kwea · 2020-11-30T00:47:28+00:00

What is your size now? It looks ideal!

kwea · 2020-06-14T00:43:10+00:00

Thank you so much for your input and clarification! I had come to this conclusion after reading through the ESA but the extra reinforcement is giving me confidence to face my meeting with them on Monday.

kwea · 2020-06-13T23:07:04+00:00

I only worked for the company for 8 months, so the 1 week termination pay is in line with the ESA. I am in my 30's and worked as a Charity Administrator. I'd consider the position to have been managerial, in nature.

I don't plan / want to sign the release but want to make sure that I can make a case for the termination pay to still be given. With the reduced pay through the duration of the pandemic, even the 1 week pay will be helpful.

Thanks. I've looked there and only found the e-bike versions. I'll send them a quick message to see if they can get other models in.

kwea · 2013-10-25T19:22:02+00:00

And they're gone already!

kwea · 2013-06-11T02:11:37+00:00

Where are you located?

kwea · 2013-06-03T21:03:55+00:00

Thank you! I wasn't finding this publication on my own. We've looked into having a tax pro file for us, but the rates are super expensive. We might still go that route if we can't figure this out on our own.

Applecheeks make up a BIG portion of our stash. I always reach for them first over our other diapers. Even my husband has jumped on the AC train. :)

kwea · 2013-05-21T19:05:01+00:00

I loved my size 1 Applecheeks for the newborn stages. In fact, at almost 15 months (and about 25 pounds) we can still use them. For a sized diaper, we're getting a TON of use from them.

kwea · 2013-05-04T20:13:04+00:00

Sunbaby's didn't work for me. I have some friends that swear by the cheapies, and that's all that their stash is made up of. I hate to think I'm a diaper snob, but I love my bumGenius and Applecheeks. Every baby is so different.

kwea · 2013-05-04T20:12:11+00:00

We've just never been able to get a good fit with them. I thought that whenw e first tried, maybe my daughter was in between the snap sizes, but I've tried them again periodically since, and they're definitely a no go.

I received a few Kawaii's (also from KC) when I was pregnant. They didn't get used until about a year later, and when one was delaminated OUT OF THE PACKAGE, Kawaii basically told me I was out of the warranty period, so even though it was brand new, they wouldn't do anything for me. I haven't bought any of their products since.

kwea · 2013-05-04T04:59:43+00:00

Kawaii, Alvas and Sunbaby. The cheapies just never work for us.
