I'm banning myself for a while. I spend too much time on here and it's not healthy for me. Yesterday's result pissed me off more than I thought it might, thought it should, and being on here just causes me to dwell on things that really don't matter. My online flippancy merely masks what I feel and how I deal with it. I'll still watch games (the women this afternoon) but I'll try to get back to my zen nonchalance about it, and not distress over the result. The sun's shining, I'm off for a walk with the dog. I've no formal banning period in mind so à bientôt. 

I've just been on the transfer threads.  You've made the right choice.  I wouldn't hurry back.

I reckon superglue should be an essential part of every medical kit. Somehow I managed to get a painful cut on my thumb and a crack on my foot - both cured with the deft application of this magical liquid.

@Parafoxis more qualified to advise, but I'm not sure superglue is ideal for the job. Although, they do sometimes glue cuts rather than stitch. I just hadn't imagined it was standard DIY Gorilla glue type stuff.

They use medical grade superglue in hospitals for closure of small wounds that don't require stitches but are too open for a regular plaster, providing the wound is relatively superficial (surface skin only). It helps the wound heal more quickly as well as being a good barrier to infection.

 

And it has to applied correctly so you don't glue your fingers to the wound you're trying to close.

Well if the football has understandably been getting you down and is detrimental to your mental health, just stay on General Chat where you can get involved in vibrant debate about impending industrial action, the cost of living crisis, soaring utility bills, the collapse of the NHS, escalation in Ukraine and climate chaos.

If a company fails to deliver an order - especially when you paid extra for an agreed AM delivery - and didn't bother with any communication, the company Chief Exec should present themselves at your doorstep for disembowelment. No ifs, no buts. Especially when it's a big fat order.

 

...And if the sales department fails to respond to your email or return a call then they should all be sacked and have their homes demolished. And maybe water torture too.

Got some proper cut glue in France, it was great. Not sure where I put it though, which is less great.

I've taken the plunge and started my own business along with my wife. We're selling sweet boxes online which hopefully will grow into other gifts/items in boxes depending on how things go. 

 

Would really appreciate the support of everyone on here, it's even got a nice little fox logo on our badge - We are called The Leicestershire Box Company. 

 

I won't add links on the forum for fear of spam but if you fancy a look we are on Facebook currently with an Etsy store and our main website will be live in the next few days. Feel free to DM if there are any problems finding us through Facebook. 

 

Exciting times indeed! (Can't tell you how much fun the taste testing was! lol)

I've searched on Etsy and I can't find you, do I need to search FB instead?

 

edit: Found it now, LeicestershireBoxCo :)

Thank you Deb :D

 

I think because we have only recently began an Etsy account its taking a while to work us up the search listings. Through Facebook though should be easy enough and there's a link on our main page to the shop.

 

We would really appreciate any purchases or recommendations to others, anything is a real help at the moment to give us a great start :D
