And @Babysnark is this a carpet beetle? Just found it on a cushion upstairs but have been coming across them on my linen sofa downstairs
now I’m worried my stuff is going to get eaten by them.

This is a fairly new thing. So I imagine a lot of older vehicles won’t have a long historyNo, I'm only looking at old cheaper cars. Im poor
Must be in person - it’s to complete paperwork regarding court/practicalities of being street homeless (arrangements for sleeping bag etc) as temporary accommodation all inaccessible (it’s not for physically disabled) and I don’t have acccess to zoom or teams (device too old, no money to pay for another). It’ll be no different for dates. Says they’re fully booked for except 29th March and 1st April when they’re available all day, and, 2nd May (all bank holidays).
ETA Thank you!!

I'm sure that there is a more appropriate place to post this - but we have just had the dreaded Universal Credit migration letter. Does anyone know if you still receive the "child element" of UC if one parent is working? Currently my partner works full time, I don't / can't work - we receive child tax credits and are entitled to working tax credits, but receive £0 due to earnings (a little over minimum wage but not much). Am panicing a bit!

Has anyone ever missed an item on self-scan checkout? I used the hand scanner in Sainsbury's and forgot one item (a pack of magnums if it makes a difference) in a shop of about 15 items. I got picked for a control check and it appeared. The woman didn't give a hoot. It happened once to me before about 2 years ago, a pack of bread mix in a huge store cupboard shop.
My anxiety has me thinking I'm going to be banned from the store - someone talk sense into me!!!

It would depend on the ISA, I have two with RBS, I have one that is my tax free where I can put up to 20k into an it's not taxed, I can't put more into it once it's hit 20k, I can put however much or little into it as I want till then but as soon as it's 20k it's at its limit, I can take money out an put it back in but it doesn't change its limit so say I have put 10k in an I take 5k out, it will still say I can only put 10k in even though it now only sits at 5k if that makes sense, an I can put money in whenever I want
My second is the flexible savers one, it had quite high interest on it for the first 5k that goes in but it's locked to me only being allowed to put a max of £150 in per month, the interest is paid monthly on the totally amount, again I can take anything out but it's limited to what I can put in per month
Then there's other ISAs where they have limits on how much can go in yearly or how much they can hold, I'd check to see if it's a money limit one you have as once it's hit its limit then you can't go over it, I know there's some that will only allow for so much to be put in during the year then you have to wait till the new tax year begins before you can add again, usually these two types have pretty low interest in them, my interest gets paid monthly to my savers on the full amount(my tax free gets no interest because it's not being taxed) but right now there's not much interest as it's still low, I think the interest rates vary around the 1.75% mark, if you want higher interest then it's typically from ones that you lock for so long, my dad has one with not bad interest but it was a set amount he agreed to keep locked for 2 years so he cant access it till then
Wow. THANKYOU so much!If your landlord wants to evict you they must have give you proper notice using the correct 'RHW' form. If they haven't then talk of evicting you is just that and you can ignore it. If they have and the notice is valid then whatever they did or did not tell the police, they want you out. You don't have to leave when the notice period expires. The landlord will need to ask a court for an Order of Possession. You can challenge the claim for possession. If the court issues the order this is effectively telling you to leave on the specified date. If you still don't leave the landlord must ask the court for a Warrant of Possession. If that is issued, the landlord can use High Court Enforcement Officers (Bailiffs) to make you leave. As I explained if the landlord succesfully takes any court action to make you leave, you may be told by the court that you must pay the landlord's costs. You can check whether the notice you have received is valid and how to challenge it here: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/w...privately/if-youve-got-a-section-21-notice-w/
Re. registering with the council for a council house; with respect if you have a device that lets you post on Tattle I think you can probably register with the council. The message that you need to 'update' probably refers to the device's operating system (which is free to update) not the actual device itself. If you can't register this way I understand that every public library in Ceredigion offers access to a computer.
However if Ceredigion council is anything like the councils that I deal with in England, even if you are accepted onto the waiting list, it could be some time before you are offered a council property so that probably isn't an immediate solution. Edit: just read an article from last July that says that the average wait for a one bedroom property in Ceredigion is 783 days!
The Ceredigion Council website homelessness webpage appears to offer a wide range of services and support. I expect you have already engaged with them but you haven't and if you are in imminent danger of being homeless, you should contact them now.
Homelessness - Ceredigion County Council
www.ceredigion.gov.uk
I also found this local charity that helps people threatened with homelessness: https://thewallich.com/services/ceredigion-solutions-worker/
I don't know anything about hoarding disorder but as far as I can tell, treatment is either arranged through your GP or privately. The MIND website lists a number of organisations that offer support (including completing application forms): https://www.mind.org.uk/information...oblems/hoarding/useful-contacts-for-hoarding/
The notice is valid. I had it checked. However, I wasn’t given a new contract after the regs changed so it may not be valid (I don’t know if that makes sense). They’ve told the police, housing solutions and housing worker from Wallich that I’m safe from eviction. I’ve told them all that the landlord has tried to change locks illegally, been here yelling at me to get out and all sorts, but they say it’s all fine and I’ve misunderstood, due to illness. I am suffering a lot with PTSD right now, and those three have actually seen how much it is; mental health have said it doesn’t matter which makes people being able to help difficult e.g gp, landlord.
I know the version of tattle I use isn’t the same as others, it’s an older version, I totally get what you’re saying its not like to can see my screen. The council website simply gives ME a page saying to update device. I’m unable to access our nearest library (I have tried!); there’s two computers in each and they are very hard to get access to (non bookable).
I’ve been waiting for an adapted property that meets my medical needs (am physically disabled as well) for ten years. I’m already in top band. I can’t manage steps or ramps due to my condition being so bad now. It doesn’t help that landlord said I could stay until one was found.
I’ve accessed help with hoarding disorder myself, MIND, GP and social services all were unhelpful but my poor mental health makes it difficult for them to help. It wasn’t helped by someone stealing my bin and landlord refusing me one for 3 years.
I’m hoping to meet with council and Wallich tomorrow. We’ve a major storm warning though that may not happen, otherwise I’ll need to cancel (extreme wind and walking sticks is just asking to end up in a road and I can no longer manage a vehicle).
The problem is having both mental and physical disabilities and too young (albeit only by a couple of years) for adapted flats for my needs and having those needs recognise, my condition is rare and instead of engaging with specialists social services dismissed it and decided to concentrate on mental health - and, unfortunately those places are not accessible or adapted so I would need to pay for someone to get me inside, carry me up and down stairs for kitchen/bathroom (neither of which are adapted).
Council have known about my condition and that it can only worsen for almost 20 years! Unfortunately covid stopping everything for years and me stupidly staying away from people due to shielding has meant I’ve now been declared ‘better’.
Anyway, I thank you very very much!

Any PC-savvy people here, please?
I got this PC and loved it, so quiet and fast, but only lasted 9months (being refunded so no worries there ) and don't know if I should buy the same and hope it doesn't go wrong again .. ( just randomly restarted here and there and also had to reboot at times to get speakers to work ) or another one.
is this a better one?
or do you have any other suggestions? I am good with computers but crap with the specs side of things. I am only really looking at the mini ones.

Definitely appropriate for the thread, dating thread might give some good advice too.
I think it is entirely your decision when to tell him. Sorry, I know not helpful!
I would just be honest but kind with it when you do decide to tell him

Does anyone know why when looking at car MOT status online most have a long history of all the MOTs but some only have the last MOT?
I’m invited to a winter wedding and I’ve been looking at dresses. I can’t seem to find one that is 100% what I’m looking for (navy). IVs come across the following two dresses but I’m not sold on them. Ideally, I’d like something a bit more versatile I can recycle regardless of event/season. I would appreciate some opinions.
1st: The color seems a bit too summery for my taste and I’m not sure about the semi-open back. I like the material and the cut though.
2nd: Love the color but not a fan of the pattern. Length is great but the dress doesn’t seem to be ‘wedding guest’ vibes enough.

I’ve posted this in the share your cat thread but it’s not very frequented so thought perhaps I’d try here too…
We're getting a kitten. We thought we wanted a girl but lots of people who have both are saying they can also spray even after being done and boys can be more affectionate, calmer and less aloof. I remember our old boy being a real cuddle monster. We'll have a nearly 3 year old and
a baby on the way when kitten arrives.
There's a fluffy, very pale ginger, almost grey ginger boy, a darker fluffy but smoother ginger boy with markings and a similar coat tortoise shell/ginger & black girl to choose from. Have to admit I've always wanted a ginger cat but I also love diddy girls. Just to narrow it down, I’m thinking the fluffier, paler one will be more hard to deal with hair wise?
Any thoughts please?
