With no due respect, bollocks to your Mum.😀 If you love the house, it fits your criteria, and all surveys pan out, that's all that matters. Don't invite her for tea. πŸ˜€

What advice for my daughter to help her to stop biting her nails?

Posted by Still-Consideration6@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 57 comments

Mother_Ad7869@reddit

Micropore Β½" tape to cover the nail at all times. Cheap as chips and she can carry one round with her to reapply if it gets mucky. Keep applying it until there is an edge to file, then file it smooth so there's no rough edge for her teeth to get hold of. This is how I did it and I bit my nails for 20+ years. Once you get them growing, they grow like the clappers! Good luck to you both. πŸ€žπŸ˜€

How many days annual leave do you get?

Posted by Doomergeneration@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 1460 comments

Mother_Ad7869@reddit

OK, I'll try and explain...I get 24 days, but I work 4 on-4 off, 12 hour shifts, so if I book 4 days off I get the 2 off-shifts either side, so I get 12 days off. From this 24 days off, I can book 6 chunks of 4 days that give me 12 days off each, or a double chunk of 8 days that gives me 20 days off! Working 4 on-4 off, I only technically work 6 months of the year anyway! πŸ€—πŸ˜€

Which way do you cut a sandwich?

Mother_Ad7869@reddit

Two rectangular slabs like your friend, but with the top slice turned 180Β°, so the crusts are on opposite sides so you don't get one all-crust side and one filling side. Perfectly balanced...as all things should be. πŸ€—πŸ˜€

Depeche Mode. Saw them in 2024, they were still as awesome as they were the first time we saw them in 1993, just in a different way now, they know they've aged but know how to smash it. Great shows, fantastic sound and visuals! Dave Gahan is one of the best frontmen ever! πŸ₯°πŸ˜€πŸ˜€
