I don't think CQC will do anything to her because you can't force a resident to go to bed, but the only mistake she made was that she ought to have notified her shift leader

Thank you very much. I'll let her know.

Yes, fully boxed.......

Also consider the Samsung Fold series...... I recently got a bargain on a Samsung Fold 4........ I seem to prefer the Fold now........


How much of a bargain on the 4 ? I got what I considered a fair deal in December. 2 days later was on the train. Stood to get off. Reached for the phone and there were ink lines on the screen. 🥲🥲🥲

Woahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! No way. Was this on eBay ? I found mine on Facebook but was a funny experience.

Got a”supposed deal” went all the way the Peckham then the guy blocked me as soon as I told him I was there.
Then had to travel to Horsham where I eventually got this. Paid 500. Thought was a steal.

Abeg, any tips to find these sort of your deals ? I’m in the market for a MacBook (2021 - today)

That guy in Peckham, was a scammer...... He hoped you would ask him to post it .........😂😜

eBay is my bargain hunting ground....... It involves loads of hours and days of constant searching........ But a deal is always available...........

NB : With apple products, apple got you guys In a cult......😁
A deal is always difficult to find (because apple products are usually overpriced)..........

Good morning Elders!!! Can anyone guide me to the steps in applying for work visa? I have visited gov.uk but I just wanted a practical view from someone who has gone through it preferably recently. What are things I need to demand from my workplace to ease the application? Am trying to get it done before month end. Thanks and God bless

Is an Technical Support Engineer classified under shortage list? As am unable to find the exact wording for that in the list I got on gov.uk.

Lol… Na lie dem dey lie… Just graduated and if I must be honest with you, University of Wolverhampton scored excellent in supporting students and also offering assistance wherever you may need them ( In my humble opinion). Discrimination is everywhere, even the so-called Nigeria, no let that one deter you, everyone is welcoming here. Just know what you are doing, abi na face you come look for UK?…. Their payment plan is very great as well if that’s part of what you are looking for… They can allow you pay in installments until about 2 months to your graduation, their help desk respond to your query within 24 hours. What else are you concerned about?

Bro please I want to ask about the job aspect in Wolverhampton, are there jobs or the market is really saturated over there.

I did auto.

Passed theory test in Jan, started driving lessons in April. I had 4 lessons and 2 mock tests; each session lasted 2 hours.

Booked practical test on 14th April after my instructor certified me 'ready to pass'. First slot was for 20th September, I subscribed to 'test cancellation now' but nothing changed after 1 week. Then, I decided to try my luck with the website by searching myself. I was able to move the date to 18th July after several refresh and changing of IP address, the second attempt was not fruitful. I gave it a shot again last week and got a closer date which is just 6 days away.

Note: DVSA website blocks ip address once the traffic from a specific ip is too high, reason I had to use VPN 😀😀.

I must admit that the information from Nairaland helped me alot. I had to let go of my 9 years driving experience from Nigeria, and approached the lessons with a fresh mind. DGN driving school on youtube also helped alot.

Happy Coronation Day to you all o.

Anyone knows anything about these brand of rice, Trophy Basmati and Shahzada Basmati rice? I was in a Morrison store recently and saw them at a very cheap price of £17 per 10kg bag compared to the Setara Golden Basmati rice which I have always bought in these Pakistani shops at £12 per 5KG bag.

I'm scared of buying something cos it's cheap and end up regretting it. Please kindly share your views about the rice brands if you are familiar with them.

Thank you.

If you buy the ones from Morrisons, watch the water that goes in as the rice tends to get soggy if you dont watch the water unlike Setara.
