StefanAVFC Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 @Demitri_C i don't wake up screaming but I have panics in the night, I think related to mild Apnea. Sometimes I'll wake up 3/4 times a night due to it. As @Stevo985 says, definitely get to the GP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wazzap24 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Why do so many more southerners drive like absolute pricks in comparison to the Midlands/North? I've done a large sample study and I've currently got the ratio at 8/10 in the south vs 4/10 Midlands/North My findings are beyond doubt, but I just can't work out why?

I manage clients based all over the UK. I find Northerners and Midlanders (and people from the South West and Wales) far easier to deal with than people from the South East and London My worst area is Kent followed by Essex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted October 12, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Really sorry to hear that mate, wish I could offer something other than that. I guess knowing the problem is the first step in being able to deal with it? All the best mate.

I'd pay you to hold my pipe a few times a week as long as you'd look away. @Xela could get rid of his wank cabbage too! You could earn a fortune! More seriously, sorry you've found that out. I'm sure you'll learn a lot about it over the coming months and you know we're all here to (rib) help you out mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I've known about it for years really, it's hereditary and my dad had it and my brother has is now, he's 7 years younger than me and he's is way more severe than mine currently is, there's no cure for it, medication is pretty limited and the side effects can be pretty severe so it's catch 22 really, at the moment it's things like buttoning up a shirt, holding a drink without spilling it, I've broke 3 phones this year as I can't grip them properly, eating has become a nightmare as the food constantly shakes off the fork. Eventually it will stop me working but when I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted October 15, 2018 Moderator Share Posted October 15, 2018 Really sorry to hear that @Jimzk5. But they do seem to be making good strides in that general area over the past few years with stuff in the pipeline too, so fingers crossed they'll get it under control to some degree in the near future.

Rob182 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Does anyone know what consumer rights we have for services, as opposed to goods? Is it still a 30-day cancellation, or is that just goods? Someone at work said they think it's 14 days for services, but I don't have a clue. I signed my daughter up for 10 swimming lessons and the first one had to be missed because my wife was ill. The second one is meant to be tomorrow, but my daughter's ill. We paid for all of the lessons in one go, and my wife has called the leisure centre and they've said we can't get any of our money back so we'll just have to have 2 lessons.

Popular Post villa4europe Posted October 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2018 im not sure if this is boring or not, personally i find it exciting lining up a new site in the centre of london, i requested a UXO report, unexploded ordnance, basically i cant have it that we start we find something and the risk of the delay falls on my company, got a report back today telling me that 544 bombs fell on that postcode during WW2 and a brief description of damage that was done to surrounding buildings for £800 i can have a circa 70 page full all singing all dancing report in to all of the bombs, when they dropped, what damage they did etc etc that to me is going to be awesome, it probably wont actually tell me "there are definitely no unexploded bombs in the ground" and i will still have to pay someone to take a watching brief during the excavations but i just want that report to read! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted October 19, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 19, 2018 Heard this in some podcast recently (some ex footballer was asking it on Twitter apparently) - If you could have a five minute conversation with yourself from ten years ago or yourself ten years from now, which would you pick?* Let’s say you can’t discuss things like “oh put five grand on Leicester winning the league” or anything like that, you could do it both ways and it’s predictable. Just stuff personal to you. I think the sensible answer for me is to speak to future me, accept what’s gone before and have a good understanding of what’s to come. However, my gut reaction is that I’d want to have a serious word with 25 year old me. *you can make it 15/20years etc either way if you wish.

You could have the fascinating conversation, but the earlier version of you would have to have their memory of it wiped immediately, to prevent changing history in a time paradox.

Let’s say that no one gets hurt or anything is drastically altered as a result of the conversation. Pretend that no paradoxes occur. You just get to offer advice (or listen to advice if it’s future you you’re speaking to), don’t drink quite as much, that girl you’re going to meet - don’t get yourself worked up too much over her, spend more time with family....that sort of thing. I suppose ultimately the answer depends on whether the person answering has more regrets about the past or is more worried about the future.
