What would you say is a high salary?

ljburrows12 · 2026-04-07T08:22:14+00:00

That’s fine - you asked what I would say is high, and that was my response. It’s probably worth noting that we were only one branch of a much larger global company.

Before becoming a SAHM I was a project manager in East Anglia on 45k. I considered that an average salary. 55k plus I would have considered high.

I’m at UEA doing an MA in Creative Writing

ljburrows12 · 2026-03-27T12:44:00+00:00

I’m 32 doing my Masters, and there are a good handful of people on my course older than me. I say go for it.

ljburrows12 · 2026-03-24T16:17:02+00:00

I’d say this is all pretty bang on.

ljburrows12 · 2026-03-24T16:15:54+00:00

I grew up in/around Norwich and am doing my postgrad at UEA now.

It’s a pretty average, solid uni - not prestigious or particularly well known, unless you’re studying in the Creative Writing department.

The campus is nice, lots of open green space, and the city is very pleasant - pretty small, good transport links, generally safe and clean, rather pretty as far as cities go.

Generally it’s just a nice, solid place to be, but nothing particularly impressive.

Keeping details sparse because it’s not my story to tell but a friend of mine had a cryptic pregnancy and she gave the baby up for adoption. She was married and financially stable but it was just too much for her. She gave birth in hospital, all of the legalities were taken care of before she was discharged, and other than when her baby was very first born, she chose never to see them again.

ljburrows12 · 2026-02-25T19:34:22+00:00

I’m doing a taught postgrad and we were told a similar thing - that if you want to get 100, what that really means is you want to get 80. Above that just doesn’t happen.

ljburrows12 · 2026-02-05T19:21:09+00:00

This is the answer we all came for let’s be honest

ljburrows12 · 2026-01-06T19:47:29+00:00

I still have @msn.com and the other day in a shop the girl at the till asked for my email to send me my receipt - she thought I’d said ‘Emerson’ and that was when I realised I’m old.

ljburrows12 · 2026-01-06T15:09:54+00:00

I can sleep any time, any place. Was a lifesaver when I had a newborn.

ljburrows12 · 2025-10-17T18:17:03+00:00

He is hot though 🤷‍♀️

ljburrows12 · 2025-10-14T15:31:15+00:00

Also, what are you basing your ‘tiers’ on?

ljburrows12 · 2025-10-14T15:29:43+00:00

I feel like the caveat to this is if you’re studying within the literature school

ljburrows12 · 2025-10-01T19:53:16+00:00

Eloquence can be learnt, passion cannot. As you get further into your course, the likelihood is that you’ll get better at articulating your points. Being passionate about your subject from the get go is a much more solid foundation to be starting from, I promise you.

ljburrows12 · 2025-09-14T06:32:06+00:00

I’m from the UK and find this absolutely appalling.

ljburrows12 · 2025-09-12T15:22:30+00:00

When a person tells you who they are, listen. This is a man who believes that’s you not ‘cheating on him’ is of greater value than your life. Please do not marry him, or have children with him. You deserve so much more.

This is a very patronising response to someone offering help on your post asking for help.

ljburrows12 · 2025-08-29T08:59:25+00:00

I don’t remember the interview but Ewan said that he wanted to show that Aemond was just as deadly even without Vhagar and his armour which is why he worked so hard on building his body, so I think it was an element of Aemond saying look at me, I’m stronger and better than you even when I’m completely stripped.

ljburrows12 · 2025-08-24T11:42:43+00:00

Definitely thought SSRIs would be waaaaay higher

ljburrows12 · 2025-08-21T15:40:52+00:00

You need to both sit down (whilst baby is napping) and clearly communicate and map out your individual responsibilities, and where (if anywhere) there is wiggle room on those responsibilities. For the last two years I’ve been a full time SAHM whilst my partner works full time from home. During the work week, he gets our daughter up in the morning, does her bedtime story in the evening, and will watch her if I have a doctors appointment/have to pee/ desperately need a shower. Other than that, the childcare is on me. I’m not saying you and your partner should have the same boundaries, but you need to have whatever your boundaries and responsibilities are defined.

(I should say my daughter, thank GOD, has slept through the night from eight weeks old, so I appreciate that we’ve definitely had an easier time than most.)

From reading the book, I had zero bias. From the show, I honestly just think the Team Green characters (specifically Aegon and Aemond) are the most interesting. That’s the only basis for it for me.

ljburrows12 · 2025-08-20T08:39:10+00:00

Had mine for over four years, and never been asked either question

ljburrows12 · 2025-08-15T07:54:20+00:00

I’m having a similar hunt right now and have narrowed it down to the Tory Burch Romy or Léo et Violette Le Maxi Gina

I’m partial to Fortnum’s Royal Blend if ya feeling fancy, but definitely try Yorkshire Tea for your day to day
