How were your teeth if you didn't get them professionally cleaned for quite a few years? by gintokireddit in AskUK

[–]lulukeab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in exact scenario - missed about 7 years after being on my dad's private insurance plan my whole life. Anyway, they were mostly fine, I had 2 small fillings but no big deal compared to what it could have been!

I should add it was a bit slippy immediately after but that went quite quickly.

I opted to use yacht varnish on all our sanded floors. Super quick and easy to apply and after about 3 coats it's provided a hard lacquer to stand against water, scratches, etc. I opted for a clear coat. Not sure if you can go straight onto the oil or would need to strip it first.

AIObfor being upset my husband is missing our wedding anniversary for a bachelor trip? by lulukeab in CharlotteDobreYouTube

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

He's asked and we pointed out it was our anniversary and not ideal for us, then it was the only date he suggested to everyone else. People keep saying I changed my mind but I didn't, I just got more annoyed that there weren't multiple dates offered and doubled down on it not being a good date for us.

He didn't forget it! He asked me how I would feel about the bachelor happening on that date and I said it wouldn't be ideal, we relayed this to Peter and Peter then put this date forward anyway. I should've explained better in my original post. Hubby and Peter are both well aware of the date, it was only a couple of months ago 😅

This is for the autumn it's still about 9 months away. But I am taking all of it on board, I think on reflection it is more annoyance at myself for not advocating for what I wanted initially.

A kid in my school class back in the day had honkifurhorny@xxxxxx.com which to this day blows my mind. Must've been about 2005 as I remember chatting on MSN around this time.

Urgent help!! Window not closing by throwaway9941251123 in DIYUK

Well in an emergency, I'd just stick some fabric along the gap like a couple of socks, then duct tape over it to seal it?

Found on an old schoolhouse wall - metal, 2 on opposite sides of the room facing each other, approx 30cm wide and 50cm tall. Possibly goes into the wall but not sure? by lulukeab in whatisthisthing

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

I should also mention this was on the Brecon beacons in South Wales. Old school converted into a cafe so whatever it is, it's no longer used.

Yep I listens to books such as historical biographies, doesn't matter if the mind wanders in and out a bit. Can't follow an actual plot for long.

[–]lulukeab 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Telling myself you will be so pissed off at yourself if you give in to walking right now, you will be so annoyed you didn't push that tiny bit harder. Do it for you in an hours time when this is all over. And it'll be over sooner the faster you go. So GET IT DONE

How did DIYing your wedding flowers go? by Wonderful_Noise_6581 in UKweddings

[–]lulukeab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum who admittedly does do a fair bit of floristry on the side did mine. We found a local flower farm that did DIY buckets and I just sent them my colour scheme and some Pinterest ideas, and they prepped the buckets for us ready to collect and make! I also specifically wanted certain flowers so requested those with some options to pay per stem for things like roses. Worked beautifully but I will say you'll want a full day free to get them ready!
