GlamMrsO: I don’t know too much about Swansea but I know Aberdeen scores alright on all 4 points you’ve raised especially as regards diversity and jobs. Swansea is smaller so might be more family oriented. It depends on what you’re after ultimately. |

Is anyone else having issues booking biometric appointments for Schengen Visa? I’ve tried Netherland and Paris options for a few weeks now with no luck. Anyone know if this is a thing now? |

MJ01: I hope she’s on her way this weekend? Cause Baby will soon be here. I’d say given how little time she has, don’t bring anything outside maybe ori n co if that’s what is the plan to use for the baby. Once she’s here she can buy the essentials. Bring food/spices for post partum. Clothes n hardware can be bought here. If it’s Scotland ������� for instance she doesn’t need to buy any essentials as most of it is given free after birth. England is different but still I’d say buy when you get here. Once you’ve paid your IHS you’re entitled to NHS care. As soon as she enters, she should register at the GP closest to her immediately and ask to he referred for antenatal clinic. Of course if for any reason you come in and labor sets in you can go straight to A&E. No one will turn you back but it’s not ideal. Nothing concern her with loosing her baby. The care system here is not full of barbarians looking for who to torment so she should remove fear from her system and be bold. A bigger issue is getting a fit to fly. Ideally she shouldn’t be able to fly at 36 weeks but it’s doable. Best of luck. 3 Likes |

Ticha: Thank you. This has been very enlightening. I’m now even more convinced I made the right decision for my kids because I think what you’ve described is a bit sad. Imagine taking a decision to avoid impact on a few, then end up skewing the quality of students overall. Smh. Thank you so very much @Ticha 3 Likes |

SPDAZZY:[b]Yes you must wait. Entitlement for 2year olds is typically for low income earners and considered public funds. Alternatively you can put your child in nursery and pay until they are 3 and start free hours[b] |

Ticha: I understand but shouldn’t this (SPAG) be taught as part of the standard English curriculum in school? Why are parents having to pay extra for English lessons?? It’s like the standard in schools is a bit lower than I thought it would be. Cause this ideally should be fundamental things. The whole discourse has surprised me Wallahi. |

LagosismyHome: Okay. Maybe it’s because the way they teach it in their school plus the small I’m doing has already made them quite advanced at their age. English lessons have never crossed my mind. But I see what you mean. |

MadeMen4Life: Tbh I’d still report this item as not received. They should replace or refund. The delivery company was meant to make sure it was safely delivered and they didn’t. To avoid this kind of situation going forward always specify what Amazon, Hermes, DPD and DHL should do with your parcel if you’re not at home I.e- deliver at local depot, come back tomorrow or leave with Neigbour. Develop a relationship with one Neighbour who can collect parcels for you and vice versa. You live in a flat so nothing like delivery at front door, it’s too risky. Alternatively, when you buy items there is a box at checkout that says ‘ any additional message for courier’ it’s not for decoration. Use it. You can specify that item should only delivered in hand or specifically within the hours you’ll be home and they usually will try to help you. Pele 13 Likes 2 Shares |
