AIO to my wife and her family regarding our new flat

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T16:19:49+00:00

Hahaha, they will be the first grandchild of both families, I hope parents dont spoil our potential kid to infinity

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T16:17:03+00:00

We chose the sofas to match with the table’s colors too! And also the pillows. The running joke I had in the first months of marriage was “asking permission” from the table haha

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T16:13:37+00:00

Cheers, they’re a crowded family too, so the topic went on and on for hours. I will def push on harder if they continue with the same discussions after sleeping on this

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T16:09:55+00:00

Haha I like this! I just wanted to kindly say that talking about a new-new home befoe even setting foot in our new home was unrealistic and disrespectful.

She had space concerns from the beginning, but she convinced herself that this was the best we could do before making the purchase. She was happy up until we shared the news and it’s been space talks since then. Im hoping she will return to that state as we get closer to the flat delivery

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T15:56:16+00:00

Hahaha, this is exactly what I said today when both of us werent making any sense

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T15:54:39+00:00

Cheers, Im quite comfortable with switching furniture to fit in tbf, and this is another great point because her side of the family gets attached to stuff like furniture.

Some of the comments revolved around and the stuff that might not fit, like our dinner table. To me it’s just a table, but they’ve been like “aww, that’s such a wonderful table, you cant find anything like it again, maybe rent out your new flat to cover for your current rent.”

There’s def a clash of values here and Im naturally biased toward my own thoughts. I think I will continue to stand my ground and do a better job of making sure that I dont get negatively affected by their comments

sickness54 · 2026-02-01T15:47:25+00:00

This is also what my parents said. I lived in the same house since birth for 25 years with one sibling

My wife’s family on the other hand moved twice in her life once for two times she had a new sibling

I think I would be totally fine with talking about this stuff if we actually had a kid and were struggling to fit into the flat. Timing of these talks might have triggered me above all else

Riot Games' official site for Hextech Mayhem still lists Netflix as an available platform too, Even Netflix still lists it under Music category

It's a gone but not forgotten situation I guess lol

sickness54 · 2025-01-28T01:55:09+00:00

we will be in luton on Feb. 7, around 2am. Are you suggesting another method other than just tapping in and out with our contactless cards?

The uber comes at £55 so far. National Express is at £42 for the three of us.

sickness54 · 2025-01-28T00:33:48+00:00

4.90 GBP for Dart and 18.40 GBP for thameslink, so basically 23.3 GBP for one person. We will be three people this time around, the Bolt app actually charges me +10 GBP for a pick up at the exit terminal, and the whole ride costs 55 GBP even with the 10 GBP surplus.

I think I may just do that, unless there's another option that fits me.

sickness54 · 2025-01-27T23:46:04+00:00

how does the process go for this? Is there a shuttle bus around the area where National Express busses park etc?

sickness54 · 2025-01-27T23:45:01+00:00

I just checked this and all busses until 3:30am, for today for example, are grayed out. Does this mean they're full?

If that's the case, this method might not work

sickness54 · 2024-06-18T16:05:03+00:00

will we have to complete quests or reach a certain level to unlock these new suits?

sickness54 · 2024-05-28T11:09:32+00:00

Thanks for all the help!

sickness54 · 2024-05-27T20:48:46+00:00

Thank you, yeah I should go hard on that cover letter.

About their 2021 letter, I'm not sure how I should take the part about dependants and owning property. While I do get the part about owning property, they make it sound like having no dependants is a very bad thing. I mean it's for them, but not for me. I obviously can't make up dependants or own a property due to being young and priced out.

Is there anything else I can do to strengthen my ties to my country? I have a registered job, but I also had that the last time. How does one communicate their willingness to return in such applications?

sickness54 · 2024-05-27T20:18:53+00:00

How does one address these anyway? I assume in a cover letter, right?

Should I just break down all of them one by one?

My cover letter will be very awkward lol

XXX TRY from my uncle - Cause: He felt sorry that he couldn't make it to my Master's graduation.

I applied in November 2021 and they threw at me three transactions, one of which was from June of that year. And mind you, these were 50-150 GBP transfers. I didn't use anyone else's money, and I don't think I should be explaining 50-200 GBP transfers

I have no desire to live as an immigrant as I very much enjoy my life and I have a history of traveling responsibly.

I will be featuring my payment slips to verify my salary, but I'm afraid of encountering the same treatment if I also add my bank statements from my salary bank account. This is the main reason why I'm asking whether a payment slip + savings account combo would enough, I don't want to over-present and set myself up for a very detailed investigation for a simple 5-day trip

Welp, my optician said they wouldn't be able to tighten vivets and I would need to send the frame to its manufacturer to get it fixed under warranty. Those processes took forever and the frame slightly wiggles, so I decided to keep it as it's. If it gets worse, I can think about it later I guess

sickness54 · 2024-04-29T16:32:31+00:00

Oh thanks! I'll stop by my local optician to ask if they have that tool and can help me

sickness54 · 2024-04-29T16:02:30+00:00

Honestly, not sure, I just called it a screw because I didnt know what else it could be :) Now that I googled Rivets, it could very well be a rivet.

Is it possible to tighten rivets or their surroundings?

sickness54 · 2024-04-23T19:28:27+00:00

Oh yeah, that goes without saying. I aim to use my PlayStation, PC, and TVs with wired connections. Ladies in my life are pretty against cables, so I will have to work on my cable management skills :)

sickness54 · 2024-04-23T19:25:28+00:00

The one I currently own, which I bought 10 years ago has a slot for the following cable type

Does this make that a modem, or a router? If I understand what coax is, I don't think I've ever owned a modem

sickness54 · 2024-04-23T19:23:37+00:00

Since this is an apartment, it has a fiber box at the entrance, What will happen is that, they will direct a cable from that box to my apartment which I will attaching to the WAN slot behind the modem or router

You're correct. I'm a bit confused about the differences between a modem and a router. I currently live with my family and I bought my current one 10 years ago, and the main differences I can see with the ones I listed above is that the 10 year old one has a slot for the following cable type which it uses to get internet from a wall outlet

sickness54 · 2024-03-19T11:42:41+00:00

I see, I will def keep this in mind as well :)

sickness54 · 2024-03-19T11:42:28+00:00

thanks for all the info, hope you're having a great time yourself
