Nice people thread part 5 - nicely does it

And in fact we do welcome people here, whether they are nice people or not, but we do not tolerate not-nice behaviour on the thread. Perhaps it should be renamed "the nice thread".Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

Personally, i do
N't consider myself nice, but i can behave nicely if required.
I definitely do not think of myself as nice, but I am very polite and even considerate in IRL (unless you wash my passport or I am on the tube in rush hour).
However there wasn't a "polite but not that nice people" thread so I had to make do with this one!0 -
Not a good day today...was up early after 3 hours sleep to watch the GP and was just taking some moments to myself with a cup of tea after putting the roast on when mum calls in a right state, dad not well at all, so I tell her to call 999 immediately.
I get down there straight away and the ambulance had arrived already (the port ambulance rather than the normal ambulance service) and they cart him off to hospital and we all follow.
Well, they only bleddy let him out again! Extremely low BP, low O2 sats, irritabillity, confusion initially and a pain across his middle...screams not just normal run of the mill stuff to me but no, the doctor, whilst not knowing what is wrong discharges him with instructions to come back tomorrow morning at 9am for the Rapid Assessment unit.
Unfortunately, he discharged him after the doctor had sent the rest of us away to get a cup of tea...we come back to find mum and dad waiting by the door to be taken home, so no chance for us to question.
And to top it all off.....looks like sister in law has gone into labour, 6 weeks early!We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Passports renewed in 2010, but the ESTA was dated before that. OH thought we just have to put new passport numbers in and change the address details, but the ESTA expires when a passport expires, so a new application is needed.
If we had renewed before Dec 2011 it would have been free, now there is a charge, but it is the timing that is important.
Luckily we looked at it today.
It’s pence anyway, hardly the top of anyone’s worries
More than paid for in terms of other countries with 2 trips :T💙💛 💔0 -
