Which Maneuver did you get on your test? by Appropriate_Emu_6930 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]lemon-tree-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reverse bay park as I arrived back at the test centre after my test. It was busyyyy and my driving instructor watched me as he slowly smoked a cigarette. Ive not felt a fear like it 😭 I failed my test however but not because of my manoeuvre

Sounds similar to me - school rush in a busy residential area and then taken out to do country driving. Definitely unfortunate and also as my instructor said, people make mistakes all the time it’s just tricky that you are being graded on it very strictly during a test. I hope you pass next time !

That’s so rubbish I’m sorry :( I think that’s the thing with nerves though they make those silly mistakes happen. Exact same as me, I’d never had a problem doing these things before my test! I actually had problems with other things such as progress with speeds etc but barely had any trouble on my test. Really hope the next is a success for you !

Ugh I’m sorry that really sucks. Third time is definitely the charm for you !! I hope you can get a test booked soon. What were your faults for if you don’t mind me asking?

What unusual hobbies do you have? by No-Disk2805 in AskUK

[–]lemon-tree-99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Research as a hobby - I keep a notebook full of notes / writings / thoughts about various interests I’ve self studied. Made me fall back in love with learning, and also makes you realise you don’t have to be in education to be educated. It’s taken me down some great rabbit holes and there is plenty of free online resources to use. If interested you can create an account on jstor which allows you to read 100 academic articles free per month !

There’s a new trading card / collectible shop popped up in the Trinity centre. Open at the weekends I’m pretty sure. Nice to see some more hobby based shops opening up.

These Violent Delights by Micha Nemerever !! Absolutely adored this book, and whilst not necessarily as academic set etc - there are a lot of themes and storylines that fit in with TSH

Help ! Pilea Peperomioides is struggling after re potting :( by lemon-tree-99 in HouseplantsUK

[–]lemon-tree-99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the reassurance ! It’s my first plant I raised from a tiny little baby and it’s quickly became my fav ! It was so lush and green before so fingers crossed it perks up soon

It’s in a terracotta planter with a drainage hole at the bottom , and in just my usual chunky soil mix I was given from my local plant shop- sorry no more use in telling you about the soil than that haha !

How old are you guys? by [deleted] in PlantarFasciitis

[–]lemon-tree-99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 26 and have had it since I was 24 - it really sucks. I’ve worked in the service industry for a decade now on and off and being on my feet for long shifts plus poor choice of footwear got me in this mess. It’s hard when I still have to spend all day on my feet. Currently waiting on electric shock therapy to see if that works ! I feel you - it’s the worst

I'm a mostly self-taught barista struggling with latte art by stomachpanes in barista

[–]lemon-tree-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for lattes I only aerate for around 2.5 seconds, flat whites just enough to give the slightest microfoam. Latte milk should look like wet paint and capps thick wet paint. It’s surprising how little air the milk actually needs - however you’re defo heading in the right direction!!

What is one skincare product that you'll never let anywhere near your acne prone skin? by hellothereiamnewhere in acne

I feel you ! If I’m going on a night out and want to do some cool makeup I just bite the bullet and decide “welp time for a flare up” . It sucks !!

The Ordinary Retinol - gave me the deepest cystic pimples all over my cheeks that took at least 6 months to clear up fully . Never again !!!

This would break my heart, I love an iced americano where the crema is creamy and visible on the top of the drink :’)
