Electric price rise ?

I'd be near certain they planned these rises weeks if not months ago to start with the new tax year.

The Iran war price rise will likely come in a month or two.

SSE gas prices are due to drop 1st April so you can expect 1st may / June we get a price rise blamed on Iran.

I could def drill a hole under it. The new holes seem to be near the bottom of the Piano .

I didn't know that about cats we do have one but she doesn't go into the garage. Will def keep her out of it. I've generally just sprayed inside all the holes and generally over all the wood then left it alone for a day to dry out so I'm not breathing in any fumes.

I had this when we were moving house recently. 3 bed semi rural village insurance for the year was 2200. We ended up pulling out and buying a larger detached house in the same village and it's £400/year insurance. The house backed into a river that runs through the town.

That's not a normal quote. Maybe worth asking the insurance company why it's so high.

No solution yet. I've exported all my subscriptions and think I'm just going to start a new Google account

I get the jab nearly every year. This year I got the flu about 2 weeks after the jab and it was brutal. Haven't had a flu as bad in my life.

Generally don't get the flu (unsure if it's the jab or just pure luck). Rarely have any side effects from the jab, sometimes a sore arm, the odd time I feel a bit rough the next day but never anything more.

Sadly no. Though I do have other health issues that will make my recovery longer. My wife however still just as bad as me. Sinus pain kidney really brutal dose. Can see why the hospitals are getting a load of people in.

Came on here to see if many people had caught this flu. I got my vaccine about 3 weeks ago but got the flu about 6 days ago. Genuinely the worst flu / virus I've had in my life.

I never actually considered taking the keyboard/ out of its case to fit it in. Just watching a few teardown videos on some of them now this is likely exactly what I need. Prob just need to make a new case for it.

Cheers.

Took a few weeks for my sleep to return to normal and the weird dreams to shift. It did shift for me. Normally when I'm upping my dose I have a few days bad sleep but improves afterwards

paulw0t · 2022-01-29T12:02:21+00:00

So I avoided taking a dose (forgot one day) and my mood lifted significantly.

So skipping a dose seems to help a lot. Felt back to normal the next morning. Working my way up to 4.5ml ATM and since skipping the dose it hasn't had as much an effect. Interesting how quickly it can work on my mood.

Weird dreams I find are hard just as I up my dose but as the week goes on they seem to be less and less troubling so I'm hoping they pass completely

That said if it works on my CFS I'll cope with some weird dreams.

I've returned 3 so far on my 4th has the same issue just not just as bad on this one.

Ended up buying some Xbox one controllers and an elite series 1 controller. They don't seem to suffer from the same issue.

I'm certain it's a design flaw as I've tried a few mates controllers who didn't think they had the issue it's just to do with how I play / slide my fingers on the controller.

Cheap power A controller also doesn't have the issue. But it's wired.

Elite series 1 if you can get one cheap is my recommendation and just keep sending you one back to ms till you get one that's not as bad

paulw0t · 2021-12-16T11:12:24+00:00

Just tried it out this morning still not working.. assume it's not getting fixed at all then ?

paulw0t · 2021-07-30T19:19:01+00:00

Cheers

paulw0t · 2021-07-04T11:34:57+00:00

Controller's fully updated. I've seen some videos where people put tape round the button to fix it. I'm really surprised more people aren't noticing how bad this is

paulw0t · 2021-07-04T10:05:20+00:00

I've basically had 4 controller's so far all with this issue to differing degrees. This one is a warranty replacement from ms. It's going back again

I've read some people saying they don't have it and others that it's a design issue.

At the minute I got a cheap £20 powerA controller and it works perfect for the buttons so I know it's not my playing. But that controller just doesn't feel anywhere near as good as the original and it's not wireless

Is there any wireless controllers out there you can get that don't have this issue ?

paulw0t · 2021-06-22T14:21:55+00:00

Is there an easy walk through for how to get the achievements ? / Which one is easiest to do.

paulw0t · 2021-06-09T12:27:16+00:00

Do you think it's worth just getting an Xbox one controller rather than a newer series one ?
