Hi, This is my first mani in quite a while. Regular polish 1 coat and a thick layer of top coat. I wanted to just practice the absolute basics.

Red polish: NHC nail polish; Color Cosmetic number 158.

Topcoat is Luodanqi QDTC; number 11.

First pic is now my attractive/photogenic hand, the right. Left always used to be my winner 😪, so picture taking was easy. Now it's like a cat with socks to get a good photograph of my right hand, so awkward.

The rest of the pics are left hand. Ring finger was injured and the nail is now bumpy 😖 The rest of the hand, I dunno. It's not up to par and just generally I need help.

Is there anywhere I could improve? Any tricks to make things look more ... polished? 🤭 Are side walls OK? The shaping? Am I going too close to the p fold? They just don't look great.

Any advice appreciated.

Thank you so much. 🌸

Cat proofing a Trellidoor?

Hi. I need to put some kind of breathable material over a vertical concertina type Trellidoor to keep a cat contained inside. Otherwise we won't be able to have our front door open and it's going to be incredibly hot inside over summer. We want to preserve the security functionality of the door too.

Have you done this before? Any tips or advice?

Thank you 😊

Men's work clothes near Walmer?

Hi all.

Husband got interviews coming up but we don't have a huge budget. Any places you'd recommend for reasonably priced office/smart men's stuff, shirts particularly? Chinos, etc.

Thank you so much.

Text editors in 2026?

Hi all. I want to get back into writing online articles. Are people still submitting articles to client in M.S Word format or am I hopelessly behind the times?

Should I be using more advanced tools? Will my work still be marketable in M.S Word format?

Thank you.

Large dog problem.

The problem is actually with the owner, it's a dog doing dog things.

Anyway. New tenants moved onto the same property about a month ago and we have a cat, property mngr told us cat was welcome, advertised as pet friendly etc. No LARGE pets were allowed prior. Because new tenants are family of landlord 🤦‍♀️ they've gone and brought their large male dog here, it's already attacked and knocked down my cat and I, luckily I threw my cat and she ran for her life. I had scrapes and bruises, fell on concrete.

Dog leaves big piles of faeces everywhere, which stinks and attracts flies. It pisses on everything. I'm completely over it. We can't even use the garden anymore and it shits on the driveway, in laundry area and on concrete walkways. It's also left fleas in the grass.

They can't find anyone else to take large dog and I feel for them but their own family and friends won't adopt it, why should we put up with it?

Since dog knocked me down they've been obnoxious to me too. Verbally harassing me and just being awful.

Landlord is SO apologetic about the attack and situation but the dog is still here sitting outside my front door. Nothing done. I'm livid.

Suggestions?

What are good laptop options today?

Hi! I'm looking to buy a laptop to use primarily for word processing - writing online articles and research for same.

I also enjoy YouTube and my eyes aren't great so a bigger screen particularly for the text work would be great, good sound volume and picture quality (graphics?) would be nice for YouTube. Something reliable with a good brand reputation and good after sales. Excellent battery quality essential. I can't spend a fortune ☹️. Any suggestions on good models, I'm not a programmer or anything so don't require all the bells and whistles that a techie would. Thank you!
