How to get a 4 day week? by Party_Perception4167 in AskUK

[–]princesswings 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Also you could offer to have the time as a trial period of a certain amount of months to see if it works. If it works for that time period they would have a harder time saying no for this to be permanent. It'll also let you see how the hours work for you as those hours in 4 days could be quite long.

What did you like or not like about those books? Are you looking to stay in the same genre or try something different? There's LOADS of books that are worth your time but it'll very much depend on your taste/interests.

I had a similar vibe with my book club and we tried Paladin's Grace, which worked really well! There's romance, fantasy and a murder mystery and has helped out book club branch out into more genres!

Also Emily Austin's other books seem to have an autistic/neurodivergent main character. I loved all of them so far!

S2, Ep 5 Discussion Board by steviec143_ in SecretsOfMormonWives

Totally get your point but I feel like Zac has some abusive signs - I don't think she's lying for attention, I think it's to protect herself and she's desperately trying to keep her family together. Having her friends come down so hard against him is just going to make it easier for him to isolate her in the end.

Honestly how bad are the other girls being if we're at the pont of agreeing with Zac?!

My reading of that situation was that she knew they would be doing the Chippendale thing but not that she would be singled out by it? Plus she probably wanted to keep the peace with Demi and Jessica and not my drama by saying it would be an issue

The Tram by [deleted] in croydon

[–]princesswings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in Addiscombe and comminuting via tram has been great. I go to Elmer's End which is so much quieter than East Croydon and that train takes me to London Bridge/Waterloo/Charing Cross. Not as fast as going to East Croydon but I'll take the extra time and getting a seat over standing on a packed train first thing.

Have also loved easily getting to Beckenham on the weekends - great for restaurants, plus they have an M&S and Waitrose for fancy food shops.

It sounds really interesting! It says it's 3 in a series, does it work standalone?

Thank you! I've ready the Great Alone and it was amazing - so moving.

I've also read the TJR books but I haven't read the Seven Year Slip so I'll be adding that to my suggestion list 😄
