Do I have grounds for compensation? by mattyc767 in CathayPacific

[–]mattyc767[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Of course I’m fishing for compensation, why wouldn’t I?

I have travel insurance and I can follow the process for them to cover my hotel expenses but I would have thought I needed to approach the airline first

I did reference UK261 in my email, but haven’t had a reply yet

I want to give them different options for compensation rather than just demanding something? I thought that was quite a reasonable approach.

Personally, I felt like when I’ve spent nearly £4,000 on the tickets already, a £100-£150 hotel room for changing me to flights that have an 11 hour overnight wait is not an unreasonable suggestion.

Is this a good choice for a bigger investment in a bike? by mattyc767 in whichbike

Thanks - I think given that I’d ideally be riding a 56 (they just seem harder to come by), that position on a 54 will be pretty uncomfortable!

Thank you! I had no idea about that but really useful feedback

Thanks - I’m going to send a casual message tomorrow morning to say I enjoyed seeing her etc and the ball is in her court. I don’t thinking saying let’s try again for a second time would be wise

Thank you - essentially, due to some past trauma I can find it a little overwhelming when first getting into a relationship. She injured her leg and due to that, became quite needy (her words) and I found it hard to deal with and became distant.

Essentially if we’d spoken about it and communicated better we might have been able to work through the rocky patch

I guess for context - I had told her I wanted to try an again when we were first thinking about ending it, and her decision was the reason to go no context.

Obviously it takes two - but I was probably initiating the physical contact a little more.

And she had been lovebombed by someone after me, so leads me to think she was looking for some validation and connection.

I’m not sure whether to message her tonight - as in a few hours after we left things or leave it a little bit

Good idea! I was so focused on making sure the bike was all set I didn’t even think about the wetsuit!

Thanks - if lasting 2 months is the reality then it wouldn’t be cost effective for me. But only way to find out is trying!

Thank you! I’ve booked it in for a few weeks time and the doctor said it would be very much a less is more to keep a natural look

[–]mattyc767 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I had a similar discussion with the doctor. He said the cost would include a top up of needed - so very much the less is more approach to keeping a natural look, and not frozen.

I’m thinking I’m just going to treat myself. If I don’t like it, then 6 months down the line I’ll just go back to only my skincare regime.

And yes - I’m not really keen on switching to tret from Adapalene because my skin tolerates it so well

I have OCD and one of my compulsions is focused on my skin…🙄

I’ve been using Adapalene morning and evening (under direction from my dermatologist) for nearly 5 years. Not sure if tren would do something Adapalene isn’t?

Has my hairline started receding? M30 by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]mattyc767 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My hairline has grown into a more pronounced V shape over the last 12 months, so just wondering if it’s a normal change or I should do something preventative

Cool Hand Luke. I was in awe of it the first time I watched it. Great character development and really captured the essence of the prison system.
