a pipe smoking dog posted:has anyone had any luck buying glasses online? My frames are hosed and in an attempt at fixing them I manage to gently caress them even more by getting superglue on the lenses. I've got my prescription but it doesn't have my "pupillary distance" (how close together/far apart my eyes are) and I don't want to go into an opticians if they're even open because the idea of having someone get that close to my face is loving terrifying. As said, Glasses Direct will let you try at home then send back. If you check MoneySavingExpert they often have voucher codes for Glasses Direct too so you get 2 pairs for £15 or whatever the deal is.

Bobby Deluxe posted:How would that impact us if my wife has a bunch of money in one of them Vanguard things? Not a huge abount, like half a month's wages in case the dog explodes or something. Not sure what you mean by "one of them vanguard things" so I'll guess you mean Vanguard Life Strategy fund held in an ISA? If so you don't want your emergency fund invested in anything as you might need it the day after the market drops 40% or something. Best idea is the keep your emergency fund (3+ months of wages in case of losing job is a good target) in a simple current account. Santander 123 lite is ok as it pays a bit of interest but also cashback on certain bills. It has a £3(?) a month fee but you can make that back on cashback. This is a good flowchart to follow, although the green optional bits are essential imo: https://imgur.com/BfHzwr9

Jose posted:If you accept one and want to go to the us on holiday you need to declare it and then your esta or whatever it's called will be rejected requiring you to go to the us embassy for an interview. That depends what the caution is for, if it's a "crime of moral turpitude" you must declare it, for others you don't.

Dakha posted:The other trouble with covid to zero is that closing the borders is much harder for the UK than Australia or NZ. Closing the borders is no harder for the UK than anyone else, that's British exceptionalism rearing its ugly head again. Compare the UK to countries like Vietnam and Japan to see how badly we've really done.

Jakabite posted:And we can’t quarantine new arrivals indefinitely or close borders indefinitely given that we’re the second largest travel hub in Europe, if not the largest. So we get to say, June, there’s zero covid(which I’m honestly doubtful is possible at this point particularly given the Tories), then what? Indefinite arrival quarantine? I was pretty firmly in the "lockdown until Covid is beaten, save as many lives as possible" camp, but I hadn't thought about your aspect of the argument before. How the gently caress can we possbily countenacne losing our status as *second largest travel hub in Europe* ? Good god, open up now and kill everyone, we can't fall down that league table!

Dakha posted:Do any of you covid to zero people have school age kids here? I’m honestly curious. Yes, i have 2 kids, one in nursery and the other in primary school. Homeschooling while my wife and I also try to work fulltime is hard as gently caress, but we'll continue to do it rather than send them back to Plague School for as long as we can.

OwlFancier posted:It was a real policy from the lib dems that was something like a couple hundred quid for you to spend only on some sort of education over your entire life. It somehow managed to be even worse than that, it was split across 3 fixed ages so you were forced to spend it at specific points in your life, and it was so low as to be almost worthless. E: it wasn't as low as I remembered : £10,000 to use over their lifetime on upskilling courses and further education. That’ll be divided into £4,000 at 25 years old, £3,000 at 40, and another £3,000 at 55. But still, why split it up into chunks at specific points? £10k to spend as and when could be great but this is terrible. Lungboy fucked around with this message at 23:19 on Feb 15, 2021 |

Vitamin P posted:Yeah it seems like David Cameron is the actual good guy in this story? The EU offered to throw migrants under the bus to stop brexit, but Cameron (like everyone) was confident enough that Remain would win that he told them no don't do that? I don't read it that way, rather that the EU *would* have thrown migrants under the bus (remember, that's what Cameron went around Europe asking for then came back empty handed which is what really drove the referendum argument) but Cameron's hubris meant he never asked them and instead repeatedly told the EU that remain would win easily. I've seen loads of people stating that they voted Leave due to the EU's refusal to give Cameron any kind of deal regarding migration, and if this story is true then it seems his stance to say he'd win easily directly led to him losing.
