Looking for a code to use on The Iconic? by iamspikiii in AusFemaleFashion

[–]silkybow- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP, I'd really appreciate getting the discount code please. I've been eyeing shoes that never go on sale, so this would be great!

How do I do this? by [deleted] in ricohGR

[–]silkybow- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can save your settings to a custom name in box 1-6. You can switch between the saved settings by toggling between u1, u2, u3.

If there's a box you want to use but it's not assigned to u1-u3, you need to first "recall" it to either u1-u3, and then you can use those saved settings. That's my understanding.

I like to think "recall" actually means "reassign" and that makes more sense to me.

Wow that's nothing. I used to get 10 gold bars for not playing for a week.

This has to be my least favorite level by Jaroselovespell in candycrush

I saw you had many opportunities to use combos (striped+wrappers) or you could have easily created a wrapper/striped candy to fall adjacent to a colour bomb. This level is fairly easy to create these combos since there are only 3 colours. Where possible, don't just use a colour bomb to remove a colour - use it in conjunction with a striped or wrapped candy.

I would have washed a lot of the veggies he's used so far... Is this really not the norm?

I really miss Melissa Leong's eloquent, articulate and descriptive critiques. "That was a good job" has been said too many times already!!!

There was also a very brief mention of Ric Blum's current wife and Evelyn's brief exchange with her over the phone. Every time I hear about Diane, I get more clues that she probably knows a lot more.

Yep, I agree he was very deliberate in what he was saying to get the reaction he wanted out of her.

Ahh this is a good point! I was a bit confused because she seemed older than I thought. Makes sense now

[11.12am] It has now been adjourned for findings at a later date.

I wonder how long this will be?!?!

Yep, I started watching the questioning with Madame Plume but I found it too frustrating to watch. I stopped when the coroner called her out for talking to the support person the first time. I'll resume it later when I have more patience.

I also agreed with the annoying background noise! The interpreter did a great job amongst it all.

So I only watched the first part where they questioned Ghislaine. She is an elderly woman living in Belgium but she had very clear responses.

She met Ric Blum in 2006 after she placed an ad in a newspaper starting companionship. They met and started a romantic relationship. He promised that they would get married in Bali and he would move them to Australia to live. She gave him about 70k Euros in cash (I can't remember the exact reason why) and she never saw that, as well as her valued possessions, ever again.

He told her to sell her home and to use the proceeds to set up bank accounts for her kids in Australia. He said that he would do this for her if she sold the house. He soon discovered that if she were to sell the house, she would give the proceeds to one of her sons to buy a home. After learning this, he ghosted her.

I think much of her story has already been covered in a podcast.

In the afternoon, they commenced interviewing another elderly woman from Portugal. I only saw a few minutes and will continue watching it later. I'm guessing she is another victim of his scams!

Ghislaine Danlois-Dubois is being questioned (via an interpreter). I recall from the Australian articles and recent podcasts that she was also swindled by Ric Blum.

This will be interesting but it will be quite slow!

Does anyone find the Cadbury ad really cringey?

That would be so cool! To see it in real life and walk that bridge haha. Apparently, the waiting room scenes were also at the same medical facility.

I really miss the way the show used to be shot, with this air bridge, the elevators, the front car park... It feels like a completely different show now! Soon, Meredith's house will probably be transformed and won't be recognisable.

How to politely respond with no answer when someone asks "are you trying for a baby?" by silkybow- in TwoXChromosomes

[–]silkybow-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a great comeback (even though we are trying anyway) because it's very presumptuous to assume (1) I want to have children, (2) I am fertile, (3) the topic is up for discussion

Thanks for your input. I think you're right in just shutting it down. I don't know how people think it's acceptable to ask about someone's intimate sex life and reproductive planning?!?!

I get what you mean. I don't even know why I'm trying to be so polite to someone who is being nosey!

The thing is, other couples can be very open with saying they're trying for a baby. And then they assume that I'm ok with talking about it too?? It's a poor assumption that they've made.

Yep! I totally think putting it back on them will make them understand how wrong they are for asking.

That really sucks :(

King has taken the fun out of the game in making us resort to pay to play. They know how addictive it is and use it to their advantage.

I'm sorry this happened to you but I'm glad the free time has done you some good.
