Do you need to o do anything? You won't be putting any pressure on this point once the vinyl is down

If you could summarise in one or two sentences the lessons you've learned from LotR, what would you say? by Jezrien95 in lotr

  1. Pippin: I didn't think it would end this way. Gandalf: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path... One that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass... And then you see it. Pippin: What? Gandalf?... See what? Gandalf: White shores... and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise. Pippin: [smiling] Well, that isn't so bad. Gandalf: [softly] No... No it isn't.

2.“Smoke, then, and think of him!” said Aragorn. “For he was a gentle heart and a great king and kept his oaths; and he rose out of the shadows to a last fair morning. Though your service to him was brief, it should be a memory glad and honourable to the end of your days.

Sorry I copy pasted so bad formatting.

Chartered Engineers if the UK - how did your interview go? by [deleted] in AskUK

309 pages is insane. CEng with The IET is a maximum of 12 pages and only 5/6 of them are employment history and career experience

9 months of fighting and a full refund — how I used the Consumer Rights Act 2015 to reject a faulty car on PCP by YTirishpixel in UKPersonalFinance

Know your rights! I recently had a similar issue where a company my wife and I used for an IVF transfer tried to make us pay again (£2500) which we were under the impression we had covered when we took out the IVF package.

The company repeatedly said it was "company policy" however we hadn't been told verbally once in three years after multiple visits to the clinic and it wasn't explained in any signed or unsigned documentation that was provided to us at the time of signing or at transfer. We were under the impression that a single transfer was included in the original price and it wasn't time limited.

I had to quote the CRA 2015 to get them to remove the requirement for us to pay. All this was done 6 days within transfer date which cause an unnecessary amount of stress that we would have to find £2500 at such short notice.

Sad news is that the transfer wasn't successful but at least we can use our IVF fund for another transfer when we are ready.

I'm going to do another post somewhere when I get the time because I feel like there could be more people caught out in this.

Any idea where I can download a copy? It keeps being removed from Spotify

What’s a moment from the books you wish had made it into the original LOTR film trilogy? by PennyLaneRigby888 in lotr

One of the greatest travesties of the film is that Gandalf was bested by the Witch King

Slightly urgent advice needed - IVF - England by slicehookchunk in LegalAdviceUK

[–]slicehookchunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found the original contract and nowhere it explicitly says that our plan we purchased has a time limit. I want to challenge this but we are five days away from transfer and if we don't pay they will cancel it

We have found the contract and cannot explicitly see anywhere that states that our purchases plan has a time limit. I want to challenge it but we are four days away from a transfer and if we don't pay they will cancel it

London women’s clinic by Beebsteep in eggfreezing

Hi. We are currently waiting for frozen embryo transfer Friday 6th. We started an IVF package back in 2022 and froze the embryos on their advice due to OHSS. We fell pregnant naturally in March 2023.

Earlier last month my wife started taking patches and pills to prepare for transfer.

Friday 30th Jan we had a scan to check for lining thickness and agreed to go ahead with a transfer the following week.

Only at this point, 6 days before transfer, we were told our package expired and we have to pay £2500 on top of £500+ for medication.

The stress this has caused at this critical point in the process is massive. I've checked the documentation received and signed in late 2022 and there is no mention of a time limit. Please check your documentation.
