I have a few questions, if you have an answer to any please provide:

* can I go to a private gynaecologist without NHS referral?
* what is the average cost for a private gynaecologist?
* if I do private health insurance, will they fund visits to private gynae?
* the wait time for NHS gynae is quite long (around one and half year) am I better off going to Nigeria or another EU country?
* if you have used a private gynae, please refer with any information that may be useful.

Thanks

I have a friend with similar situation. His wait time though is 9 months. This is crazy..she is considering going back to naija or check to see if she can go to any EU country but doesn't know how that works. Also, an aunt of mine back in nigeria needs spine surgery and knee replacement surgery, does anyone here have a knowledge on how one can get it done in either india or any reputable EU country that can give her a medical visa to get it done. Edakun!

Plus the potential or current bitterness you'll have towards your inlaws for years to come.

Hello everyone, hope I met you all well.
Pls I have been giving this declaration form for nursary education funding by child's school to fill and return. But I don't know if it has anything to do with public fund as our visas frowns at public funds. The school says it has nothing to do with that, but I know the form will be sent back by the school to the council. I'm afraid o ! Kindly advice pls πŸ™.

Its screaming public funds. Most of these people do not know much about immigrants not permitted to have access to public funds or what a public fund is, so they'll tell you, its not a public fund.

Hmmm on this 20 hours topic, what happens to someone who finished writing their dissertation 3 months before the submission deadline but didn’t submit so they started working more than 20 hours since they were done with their school work.

Wait for your school to write you informing you, You're done with your studies and that the home office has been notified too. Make una dey try calm down na.

I will make my life, your dwelling place, i will build your throne in my heart. Come father, come son, come holy Spirit. Come and take your place, in my life.

Modern day gen z christian musicians have long way to go. When we listen to the likes of panam percy paul, ojo ade, to mention a few, the fear of God is always strong in us. We always feel sober and try to always do the right thing. But today's musician are competing with the likes of davido and wiz kid( not all though, but majority). When you listen to Christian songs, you suppose go one corner begin reason your life and eternity.

If I have a big purchase, I simply apply for another card and put purchase on card....... Enjoy 24 months interest free period + S75 protection (then clear balance before interest free period is over).......😜

I did this when i moved to a new house. Used the new card to buy my household items cos I'm on 1yr free interest period. I think this is one of the reason we accumulate so much cards cheesy not me acting like I didn't know

Well, some people see it as being financially organized. According to his words. His argos card is for argos shopping, his tesco card is for tesco, sainsbury card is for sainsbury, aqua is for drinks, capital one is for Chinese meals, amex is for vacations. Quoting my colleague.

I don’t believe oh have 20 credit card

I have a work colleague that has close or if I'm not mistaken above that numbers. He brags about having so much credit cards and how he's got one each for different hangout spots and restaurants where he frequents. Infact, he has all of them on his google wallet so he doesn't go about carrying physical cards. Did i believe him ? He showed me and i got tired of watching him swiping each and bragging after we got to about 17

I'm curious but how's your credit score like? I believe they usually advise against having too many credit cards?




My score is growing fine. Each cards have their own function and i try to spend carefully not going above my capacity. I also pay back on time even before statement. So my score is fine.
