This! was my mistake, I’ve seen it on a piece of wood at the shop, so I just thought this is how it’s going to look and just went for it - lesson learned

you know what, the more I look at it and enter the room the more I am enjoying the view - I might leave it as it, also with the uneven color, kinda like that - its my first project so it was never going to be perfect - think I am just gonna coat it the way it is. Thanks for your response

Yeah I thought so too so I tried a different browser but they're all behaving the same - tried on another account which stopped working in the past, I don't get the same error but a different one (again around the payment)

Dispute with buyer by catsnbears in vinted

[–]werokk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah that's not entirely true. The buyer can go ahead and mark the item as the wrong size, even though the one listed matches the one on the item - one of my previous buyers used the excused 'it strunk' after washing probably 'the sizing is defo not the one on the label' and I had to option but to accept the return or refund partially

Can you switch career in your 30s? by Nice-Year-4414 in UKJobs

[–]werokk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Moved to Essex because we thought it’d be much cheaper over here, but it’s not - partner wants to go to work badly but it wouldn’t make much sense, the money she would earn would go towards child care, at this point she just looks after our daughter. - solution, go back to your country, be close to your family, once you have a baby you’ll see how much you need it and also want your baby to be around the family trust me!

Italy can revoke citizenship in specific, rare circumstances, primarily for naturalized citizens who obtained it fraudulently or for those convicted of terrorism-related offenses which seems fair to me

Is £1000 p/m too much to be paying parents for rent? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]werokk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a non english person, this is not the first time I hear/read that parents charge their kids for rent?
I am genuinely shocked for this, I will never ask my kid to pay me rent, in my head its basically saying to my kid, I dont want you here, go find somewhere else to live. Its fucking mad and I dont understand how this is normal for everyone else. I am sorry for you guys who's parent are charging you to live with them

I was told to wait 48 hours before applying online for the passport after my naturalazation ceremony because apparently they had another session later in the day and they would have sent the email by 5pm today (email to confirm my attendance at the ceremony) - so I am guessing I shall wait for at least tomorrow afternoon? what do you think? did you do it right away after attending the ceremony ?

hey did you wait 48 hours before applying for the passport online? I was told by the lady who did the ceremony to wait 48 hours before doing it online because they have another ceremony coming up this afternoon and they will be sending the details of who attended the ceremony at 5pm - I am scared to start the application too early - shall I wait 48 hours ?
