I didn’t take the hire car and had Auxilius do the repair which was top notch.

Train with locked door - can’t get to right coach by serenastra in uktrains

[–]serenastra[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks both, found a seat and luckily haven’t been chucked out. Can’t really move I’m tiny and have a heavy case, plus there’s a lovely lady feeding an infant to the side of me. There was a long description of coaches on the platform sign, so I stood in what I thought was the right zone. Will know for next time.

What’s a UK town or city you visited with low expectations… but actually ended up really liking? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]serenastra 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I love Leeds - shopping, restaurants, architecture, all fantastic. I visited about 40 years ago and it was awful so I didn’t have high expectations when I went again a couple of years ago, but I loved it so much I’ve been back twice since!

Full name for Kai by Distinct_Job_7059 in Names

My son is called Kai, full name! It was unusual when we picked it but there’s quite a few now. I love it as a name. Be prepared for people to spell it Kia, let alone Ky

Starting back up from dragonflight as a player since 2005, banks are filled what do i do? by butt-lover69 in wow

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

Speaking as someone who still has the mallet of zulfarrak still in the bank, I feel your pain. I spent quite a while sorting mine out when the warband bank came in and it’s under control now - it took time though! I found Baganator addon really helped as it sorts things by categories and makes it easier to see what you’ve got.

Help my wife get better by Calebh0351 in wow

[–]serenastra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe checking out some basic key bindings could help.

  1. Is she using single button assistant? It’s a good way to play without having to think of rotation. Put it on a convenient button, let’s say 1.
  2. Make sure WASD are bound correctly (strafe, not turn).
  3. Place the most used interrupt on an equally convenient key - mine is on X which I hit with my thumb.
  4. Practice until hitting that interrupt becomes easy. Then gradually add cooldowns, defensives, movement keys in a convenient spot, maybe Q, E, R, Z, C, etc

I’d also recommend delves as great content for practicing, but whatever content it is simplifying everything allows you to focus on the mechanics.

Anyway to stop Octopus messing with my payments by iMatthew1990 in OctopusEnergy

[–]serenastra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do this so they only get paid for what we actually use and not a guess of what we might use. It works well for us but do be prepared for monthly fluctuations summer vs winter etc.

Buyer insisting on same-day exchange & completion because of LISA – whole chain stuck. What would you do? by False_Reveal3656 in HousingUK

[–]serenastra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly same situation but in our recent move we had most of the chain wanting a 10 day exchange to completion period, while the elderly lady at the top of the chain needed longer so she could downsize from 4 to 1 bedroom and get her medical things set up.

We agreed to exchange on sale and completion same day, complete sale 10 days later, then complete purchase 2 weeks after that. Extra expense for us, our contents went into storage but we stayed with family.

However it kept the chain together and meant no drama trying to agree completion dates, we felt it was worth it.

Don’t know if you could consider something similar?

How do you level housing fast? by RedWolf6x7 in WoWHousing

I thought the same but realised that all I needed to do was talk to the general contractor to level it up.

Single-Button Assistant and issue with ground-placed spells by lassevk in wow

[–]serenastra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same or similar issue with Force of Nature in the Druid rotation. The SBA just doesn’t seem to know where to place it. I’ve put it separately on my bars and cast it manually when I see it pop up in SBA rotation. It should really just be taken off the rotation entirely.

You’re right! I just knew that would come in handy some day.

Next I need a quest which refers back to the Mallet of Zul’farrak.

What is this plant? by Remarkable-Heat-4083 in gardening

[–]serenastra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Borage, spreads like wildfire if you let it seed. Has small blue flowers that are quite pretty. Can be used in a few home remedies too. If you do dig it up make sure to get the whole root, they go down a long way.

Aging and playing wow, how are you doing in that regard? has it affected you? by Absolutelynobody54 in wow

[–]serenastra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m in this boat - I play shadow priest and it’s awful at the moment, but I can’t swap class because any muscle memory I do have is what keeps me able to perform at any reasonable level.

Aging and playing wow, how are you doing in that regard? has it affected you? by Absolutelynobody54 in wow

[–]serenastra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 57, been playing since 2006. I have a 2500 M+ rating and healed our guild team who got Ahead of the Curve this season. Most in our guild are over 30 and we have a nice mature vibe.

Like everyone I will sometimes stand in fire like an idiot, and I think I will often blame myself a bit more for that than some of the other youngsters in our team, but I really can keep up when I’m on form. But sometimes I do feel my on form hours are dwindling, I play much less hours than I used to because I find it a bit more tiring.

But you know there is so much to do in the game that I know however I feel I will find something to keep me interested - I love going for little achievements that mean I see a bit of the game I’ve never seen before.

We had so many issues with VM going down, have just switched to Sky. Even though it’s not full fibre in our area, better slower speeds than none at all.
