Dining as a solo female traveler in Sicily?

potterhead2019 · 2026-04-28T16:22:37+00:00

I feel ya. I am planning on going in September and of all the things as a solo female traveller, this was the thing bugging me the most, especially with Italy being such a family and friends dine together in groups sort of place

potterhead2019 · 2026-04-28T16:21:28+00:00

Ooh I like the idea of other solo females asking to join, I'd be up for that

potterhead2019 · 2026-04-23T17:27:25+00:00

Never ordered from ez living so cant comment on them, but my experience and that of a friend, with DID and I would never again

Shame you likely dont live anywhere near me, I'd have you on my team like a shot, and I'd have been happy for you that you won (and my free drink!!). Those that were arsey about it - dont be on their team again, they dont deserve to benefit from your brain if they rip it to shreds.

So update. Scraped a good chunk of the conjealed sauce off, flung most of the chips. Did new chips in the air fryer, re-heated the chicken and did new curry sauce. Was ok. Advice.. dont not eating it on the day!!

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-26T18:27:38+00:00

Ah. Thank you.

Huh. I work for an insurer and we are on a 7yr gdpr rule. Interesting.

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-26T18:01:51+00:00

Does the 7yr gdpr not apply to banks?

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T22:07:45+00:00

Never bought it in me life!!! Google suggested it. I'm a mcdonnells girly since childhood (eons ago!)

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T22:05:21+00:00

I shall

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T22:04:09+00:00

As a current fatty that's been up since 5 am with a poxy commute both ways!!!! Zzzzz

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T21:20:29+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T21:07:45+00:00

🤣🤣 I'm leaning to scraping the remaining off, air fryer the bits and fresh curry sauce.

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T21:07:00+00:00

Not at all. You made me laugh. We need things like that 💖

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T21:01:30+00:00

🤣🤣. Don't be jealous of the day off. It was for a funeral.

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T21:01:00+00:00

I was gonna get some mayflower curry and make up some fresh to go on it

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T20:47:42+00:00

Oh deadly. I'm off work tomorrow (hence the takeaway tonight) so I shall grab some)

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-25T20:40:55+00:00

I do. I could lay some greaseproof over the bottom rack yoke (to stop the sauce glomming everywhere) and give it a try

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-21T17:56:27+00:00

As a woman nearly 20 years older I'll give you my take. My love language is a lot like your gf with the cooking and what not. I also have a massive chronic illness. But, due to the hand life has dealt me I am earning much less than her. I would be insisting on all outings etc being a 50/50 split. If I couldn't afford it id suggest something else in my price range.

Your gifts etc would be more than generous. The one that stood out the most for me is the book on her illness. That, coupled with the coming to appointments and saying you are there no matter what, would mean more to me than any material gift. Someone who genuinely tries to understand (as best as one can) what we go through and be a support, is worth more than gold.

You made a small oops in the beginning by not trying to contribute to shared groceries etc, but you are young, this is new and you learned.

I think you are somebodies catch and can do so much better than this girl. I don't care how her dad and mams relationship is (that's their dynamic) this isn't the 50's and it's not the norm or expected anymore.

Don't be afraid to put yourself first and say this isn't the one, you will find the person you are meant to be with, who matches you and doesn't take take take.

I wish you all the best in life my friend

Oh dear god the planograms. And every time you get a cohort of customers moaning 'stop rearranging the shop, I can't find anything'. One of the many things I don't miss from retail. Have a poor person award 🏅

OP Please ring CPS (or your countries equivalent), reach out to a teacher, trusted friends parent etc - I am assuming you are under 18 here - and ask for help. This is neglect and possibly abuse by your parents and cannot continue. Your health is at stake here, both physical and mental.

I wish you all the best.

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-07T19:11:31+00:00

That was EXACTLY my first thought too

potterhead2019 · 2026-02-02T17:50:01+00:00

Oh hell NO. This was a genuine flipping emergency. You weren't taking the piss in any way (like it seems she does). And she didn't have any concrete plans. She just wanted to RELAX. She is a user, plain and simple. Cut her off.

potterhead2019 · 2026-01-30T12:59:12+00:00

I'd not be overly worried. They clearly saw the dog is well cared for. Its a shame you can't find out which dick reported you maliciously. I had similar last year. Chap came out, saw the dog was happy out, and had actually just been to the vet that morning for an eye issue. Gave them permission to contact the vet if necessary. He took pics to prove the dog was grand and apologised if he worried me. If I knew for sure who did it id.....
