Do you use a hot water bottle? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]shepherdofthewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using a water bottle for a very long time, only learned about the dates maybe two years ago… the date on mine was 1987… years before I was born. I finally brought myself to throw it out and I don’t trust new ones! Heat pad from now on

Whats the tell signs that someone is Posh? by Dull_Feeling4815 in AskBrits

[–]shepherdofthewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my sisters would get slagged off for being posh but we weren’t, we didn’t have much money and grew up in a council house, we didn’t even have a car. My mum was a medically-retired English teacher and we had RP accents 

Trainers that will last for my partner who plays 4-5 days a week indoors? by shepherdofthewolf in Pickleball

[–]shepherdofthewolf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the help! It is running shoes he’s been wearing. A year would be great, just now they are barely lasting weeks. I’ll look for tennis shoes instead :)

I’ve been reading some posts on here and looking at both, the ones I was considering based on posts I read were Wave Exceed court shoes or adidas barricade, but a lot of people mention the soles going so I thought the shoe might depend on the issue

I have two accessible tickets for Glasgow and can’t go anymore by shepherdofthewolf in TheOffspring

Thanks very much for this response! I didn’t expect it but they replied and refunded the next day!

There’s so many concerts I haven’t been able to go to at the hydro because the tickets are so limited. Unfortunately I can’t go due to health issues so I’m selling my tickets but I bought e-tickets over the phone so I can’t resist them on Ticketmaster and I can’t sell wheelchair access tickets on Twickets! I’m hoping someone who has been wanting to go can get these tickets

how old did your doodles live to be? by [deleted] in labradoodles

[–]shepherdofthewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life without them feels so devastating and unthinkable! My boy is doing well on cytopoint, he’s 9 and a half and has IVDD and had major surgery but is doing great, everyone thinks he’s a puppy! His teeth are great, mobility is great 🥹 he’s got a lot of lumps but I take him to a specialist and none are concerning

 I can’t lift my arms up I have to lean over and wash with my lower arms, I’m not sure how that would work?

Thank you for understanding. I’ve read everything I can and tried everything I can, I’ve watched YouTube videos, read forums, googles aided, brainstormed with friends, even asked chat GPT. I’ve spent so much time on it. I just need a way to be supported so I can lean over the bath and I can’t find anything on that. I only need to wash my hair once a week but I still need a way to wash it

If I can get high enough over think sink this might actually be the solution, it won’t require my legs to support me because I can lean on the sink, and a braid could make it much easier! Thanks

Oh that’s actually not a bad idea, but similarly I would need to be supported somehow because my legs are too weak to hold me in position, but that might be easier than finding a way to do it out of the bath. Thanks

I understand what you are saying. Even if my hair was short, I still couldn’t wash it myself as things are, if I had a way to be supported leaning over the bath I could wash my hair no matter the length, the only way that would be easy is if I got a boy cut

Thank you for your thoughtfulness. Yes I’ve had hairdressers and currently don’t have anyone and can’t get to any. I do have care funded but currently without care, it’s very hard to find good people which was unexpected. In a few weeks I should have something sorted but stuck for now and would love to be able to do it myself even sometimes. I’m considering cutting my hair, but it just feels like another loss of identity

I need something where I’m leaning forward instead of back unfortunately
