Thread, I need your help/advice. A friend of mine has CFS/MS, and has been told by his mother (by text, no less) that she is moving up north and he will not be coming with her. Effectively, he will be made homeless in the next couple of weeks. Fortunately he has a brother (who is also estranged from their mother) in Farnborough who has found a spare room for him around the corner with his fiance's mother, but we all know stories of how temporary that arrangement can be, particularly with someone who most days is incapable of getting out of bed. I'm not entirely sure if he's currently receiving PIP so obviously if he's not then that should be number 1 on his agenda, but beyond that and contacting Shelter, I'm not sure what other resources are still left in this dumb poo poo country to help him. Can anyone point me in the direction of anything that could help? EvilHawk fucked around with this message at 10:10 on Dec 2, 2021 |

So my other half has just gone into labour and we're gonna be in the hospital from 2 this afternoon going through everything. Right now I feel a bit under prepared but I've not really seen much on what Dads to be should do except be supportive. So far I've got a laptop full of TV shows for her to watch and I'm to go off and get her food/snacks after I drop her off at the hospital. I've got the car seat ready and stuff but feel like that's not really all that much. I might take my Switch or something? Anyone else with kids have a general set of pointers on what to take or what they wish they had? Best I can think of is something to pass the time for both of us if it takes ages.

This isn't me as a person with legal training talking btw, it's me as a person who did this about 15 years ago, so he should definitely talk to Shelter for advice, this is like their bread and butter. I do have very limited professional experience dealing with homelessness though, & I'm pretty sure there's still legal aid available for housing issues in case the Council deny their obligation to house him, so he needs to get on Universal Credit immediately to make sure he qualifies for legal aid.

If you get chucked out of the hospital at any point due to Covid poo poo, clean the house from top to bottom. It needs to be loving spotless when she gets back. Also get her something nice to come home to, like food or flowers or whatever, & make sure you've got everything you need (e.g. lots of caffeine) within arms reach of wherever you intend to stay up all night with the baby whilst your partner sleeps. My daughter's only 10 weeks old, I'm getting all nostalgic remembering bringing her home now, congratulations mate  (e: most of this advice given to me by the older lady who runs the burger van near my work so ymmv, but it went down very well with my partner) Borrovan fucked around with this message at 10:03 on Dec 2, 2021 |

Borrovan posted:Sounds like he'd probably be considered vulnerable for the purpose of local authorities' obligation to house the homeless. There's info here. He should go to the Council and present himself as homeless. I did that once, I was a bit of a weird case but the Homelessness Prevention Officer was extremely cool & sorted out getting me the deposit & rent up front for a private let that I then paid for with housing benefit, I think I was on the streets for about 5 weeks total (ymmv, I am very white & middle class, lived in a posh area with a Labour Council, & basically physically turned up at the Council offices every day crying at people until someone took pity & sorted it all out). Probably important to make sure he doesn't give anyone the impression that the brother's fiance's mother-in-law (?!) situation is even semi-permanent, he should just say that he's sofa-surfing basically. Thanks for this, I'll pass the info along.

fuctifino posted:The other option is that everyone gives up, nobody reports on any of this, and nobody cares or even gets to know what is going on. This isn’t accountability. This corruption has been happening since the Tories got in in 2010, and the press have known about it the whole time. The difference now is that the powers that be have decided they’d like Boris gone, so suddenly the papers care about this, suddenly. They’ve probably been waiting for covid to die down so the blame can be neatly dumped on him, but with the Omicron variant turning up that means the sleaze stories will probably die down a bit until this has blown over.

Mate I wouldn't take your Switch, your lady has to be the focus and it's easy to get sucked into devices. A bluetooth speaker and some of her favourite/relaxing tunes loaded on a phone would be my recommendation. A couple of changes of clothes for her as it's always a while and depending on your situation could be a day or two even with things going perfectly. You'll need stuff to eat too. Take a book maybe, but mainly just take yourself. Good luck, I'm sure you and it will be awesome. Zalakwe fucked around with this message at 10:54 on Dec 2, 2021 |

I really want to take up woodworking or whittling or something as a hobby. Mainly because I don't have a big house but there are lots of trees around and some space by the shed to sit and cut wood, and I want to spend less time with technology. Not sure whether to look for a class, or just get a knife and look at YouTube videos or something. Anyone here tried the same, or have any experience with it please?

There are a couple of youtube channels I enjoy that focus on hand tool woodworking which might help you get a feel for it, and also some good starter projects if you have some space. https://www.youtube.com/c/RexKrueger Rex has a number of "make your own tools/bench" videos which you might like and also he sells plans for his stuff on his website. Also good because he puts a lot of emphasis on not spending money if you can avoid it. https://www.youtube.com/c/WoodWright James Wright does a lot of hand tool stuff too, helps you to see how it is done. There's also https://www.youtube.com/c/PaulSellersWoodwork Paul Sellers for some good specific techique instructions. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 11:01 on Dec 2, 2021 |

You can probably adapt it into a sawhorse to help with basic operations and then move on to other things, though I think if you are going to be making a workbench you will want it under cover so the wood doesn't rot or warp.

And he's still getting nice write ups from various pub publications. Also had a guy who was a clear money launderer refuse to give me my annual leave because he'd declared bankruptcy on the restaurant and then opened it up the next day under his wife's name, so technically I hadn't accrued any annual leave. I also phoned the DWP to find out that I was never on their books and the payslips I was being given were forgeries and they were pocketing the tax and NI for themselves. gently caress I don't miss working in pubs and restaurants.
