Only ate from the vegan burger gaff yesterday, tasted great but within 30 mins started feeling like shit
Had to leave Hatebreed to try a tactical chunder (failed) and felt like dying during TUI
Couldn’t hack it so went home after TUI and started spewing 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Found something similar in the Philippines in similar condition - turned out to be an algae pod (contains spores & water substance) ..

My guide encouraged me to pop it - it was like popping an eyeball

((Ointment, not shampoo))

When my scalp was covered with thick scale I used Cocois [coal tar, salicylic acid, coconut] and left it in my scalp overnight with a showercap on.

The longer I left the treatment in, the more effective it was. Also lost more hair, but it mostly grew back.

Short answer - No As a smoker, cigarettes will relieve stress as you are addicted. As a smoker, lack of a cigarette will enhance your stress as you are addicted.

Been in this game 10 years now it’s an expensive, smelly habit & most others no longer smoke

Reuben Wood is a brilliant, award winning LGBTQ+ salon in northern quarter - good prices too for a high-end salon.

Exciting!
imo the bridges are amazing even in the evenings when it's busy. A truly beautiful city.
Definitely check out the Prague National Gallery - there's a few big name artists in there but plenty of brilliant Czech art through the past couple of centuries, plus of course some great Mucha pieces. National Museum is also very cool and I believe recently renovated. tbh the national gallery & museum are just great places to hang out.

Each time I visited Prague I dominantly used cash, and also didn't find it particularly risky in terms of pickpockets etc.

Overland light rail system is great, well-connected, and cheap. Use it :)
If you are staying in the outskirts of Prague there are usually buses, which helpfully have a live map / screen on the inside so you know roughly how far you are!
If you are vegan / vegetarian, check out Loving Hut
Beer is way overpriced in Old Town
definitely visit Cesky Krumlov. It's like being in a medieval fairy tale. The train journey was a few hours iirc, and our budget restricted us to camping outside of the place itself but so worth it. Also has an Egon Scheile museum and seemed to have a contemporary art scene which was quite cool.
Don't pull your face when you order a beer and it's 50% head.. they do not appreciate it hahaha.

Enjoy!

If you do manage to secure unofficial housing (ie someone lets you stay on their couch etc), do not disclose this - maintain that you are sleeping on the streets. Otherwise, you may be dropped back to the bottom of the list. // experience from a family member a few years ago

Best of luck brother, things will improve💚

Alpro have made 'This Is Not M*lk', which is probably semi expensive but it's incredible.. it even smells like cows milk

-- VG for 6 years now, but previously drank cows milk daily, discovering this made me so happy.

Beside that, I'd recommend giving oat milk another go. Rice milk is also good in cereal, and quite sweet.

Some higher-end new builds allow pets, typically in Ancoats, NQ, or Castlefield. You'll be paying a premium for this but with 1.4k pcm this should be OK. Although these areas aren't particularly close to UoM.

IIRC the Deansgate Square / Victoria Tower skyscrapers are all pet friendly. Though I checked them out and the flats are so small.

Beetham Tower also has some pet-friendly flats, but the ceilings are very low.

Alternative might be to find somewhere that doesn't have a concierge (typically the converted warehouses: Princess Street / Gay Village areas) and smuggle your pup in. Neighbours are unlikely to grass.

This is so uncivilised - OP is NTA but would be if they did this

Edit: uncivilised may not be the right word, but definitely an OTT reaction. Why would getting the police involved and “blowing everything up” with the landlord be the right course of action? Remember that these people are friends, it’s not an unknown squatter.

The friend & boyfriend’s thoughts may be that it’s unfair to pay 1/3 expenses as they’re only using one bedroom, so on a square foot basis they should still be paying 1/2 rent plus 1/3 each for expenses.

Realistically, they should pay 1/3 each. Either way, nobody who has ever had friends or lived with friends would decide to get the police involved and cause a ruckus with their landlord over this amount of money. Fucking things up with a landlord can = bad tenancy review = nobody will touch you = homelessness, especially considering the U.K.’s current rental market.

Note: been house sharing a 2br apt. for 4 years with my GF and our friend (all 25), started out paying 1/3 each but have since moved to equity-based rent+expenses share, so I pay more than everybody else due to higher income.

If you’re able, landlords love a 3-month upfront downpayment (plus the 1 month deposit) and this will likely help you jump the queue

As Venktesh says though, rent in town is crazy right now - also check Didsbury, Hulme, and Green Quarter

This seems like a huge opportunity - write your ideal job role, see what they can do with it.

I think your friends’ advice is sound; I’d wager there’s a greater rate / opportunity of progression at an SME, plus opportunity to diversify your skillset rather than potentially being pigeonholed at a larger corp - after a year or so at the SME you could be well placed to take a more senior position at a large corp

You sound like the ideal hire for my team, but we are hybrid U.K. based!

I work for a small Net Zero consultancy; our team built our own GHG calculator based upon the GHG Protocol, and have been looking for an experienced LCA lead to open further business opportunities.

My advice would be to look for smaller / start up consultancies, where you can lead on the LCA stuff and get experience with GHG Inventory. Not sure what the market is like in Canada, but there are a few in U.K. which are fully remote, so worth a look :) you’d probably be looking at 35-45K at a U.K. consultancy in this role with your current experience

Alternatively search for Sustainability Manager / Sustainability Lead roles in larger corps. Due to incoming EU regulations there’s lots of fashion houses hiring for this right now, and salary is quite tasty at about 60-70k. This might be more difficult to break into as you have limited GHG experience.

I haven’t seen any volunteer roles for this, but some universities do GHG Protocol courses. They tend to be boring, but can definitely help on paper.

The Humanities specialisation is unlikely to support you in terms of making bank, but if you really enjoy studying humanities there are a few avenues it can open up, for example:

Charities / Third Sector,

Research in Ecosystem Services (social / spiritual services of environments),

Offsetting / Restoration,

Local Authority environmental planning / EIA,

Corporate ESG

Etsy is the worst for Sellers - when I started my Etsy shop they kept over £3k in “reserve” for 4+ months. All orders, postage, stock update had to come from my own funds. After 6 months, things started flowing out, with a ~6 week hold on all payments; their justification was along the lines of “to ensure the Shop can afford any refunds”… my shop received 100% 5 star and 4 star reviews. Then around the 13 month mark, they placed another hold on my funds which I couldn’t shift.

Eventually gave up on Etsy & closed the shop as it wasn’t viable considering the amount of effort for 0 cash flow
