Inconvenient Annoyances

Sounds like time for a solicitor 

Definitely. I'm so sorry this is happening.

I dont know what will happen. I'm not sure I have the mental strength for that. And I don't know if they somehow found this board so I can't really talk about it here either. I really just want to go home.

Ugh! But please don't struggle with this alone Margo, you can always take it to PM.

That's lovely that you think it's only for the rule breakers but the implementation of it has impacted every immigrant, legal or not. Choosing to extort spouses and families over other forms of immigration in the name of making it self funding was also a poor decision.

When abuse gets shut down it often affects other people too, not just the abusers.

Each time a service moves the where it must be self funding, there will always be those who think they are entitled to have other people pay for them.

Margo, huge hugs to you.  PMs are good or you can post in Homesickness/Hardtimes because it's a members only board and doesn't show up in Google Searches. 

Do. Not. Give. Up.

Definitely take it to PM, though. They probably haven't found you here, but it's better to keep stuff like this off the internet.

Don’t give up!! We are all here for you!

My IA for the day is that I was traveling to Skye for work and came upon a brutal traffic accident about 30 minutes after it hap. First two ambulances had just arrived from Portree. People from stopped vehicles were actually getting out and videoing the scene on their freaking phones! What is wrong with these people?! There were fatalities and people seriously injured and they think it’s entertainment?!

It was nasty. They haven’t even mentioned the overturned lorry on BBC.

About a month ago we had an accident here with an overturned lorry and it literally gridlocked the parkways with traffic. People were filming it in their cars etc and the police got all of those people in trouble.

I drove by an accident on Saturday where I could see police tape and a tarp over a bike and police walking up and down an embankment. I couldn't find any info on it besides the road closure notice due to serious accident. honestly made me really uneasy because that is a 2 lane 50mph highway with no shoulder and a hard curb, why would a cyclist be on it?

it's awful that people document that kind of thing. The only time footage is helpful is when it captures the events leading to the accident via a dash cam!

Yeah, I kinda hate cell phones. Because of their owners, often. 

I was on a shuttle bus to work one morning a couple of years ago. The bus had maybe 15 students (university age), me, and the driver. We saw a woman start to run from the other side of the street to catch the bus, in front of us, and she ran right in front of a car that was traveling in the opposite direction - the poor driver had no time to react. The impact threw her over the hood and she landed on her head in a crumpled heap. The driver stopped, I said someone needs to dial 911, and the driver and I got out to help her.

Turned out that several of those bastards on the bus took video and some took selfies, and posted them! And nobody on the bus called 911, except the driver, from what the police told me later. And they also got a call from someone in a passing car.

So, yeah, call me a luddite, but I'd rather cell phones didn't do anything but make calls and text messages.

Oh that's horrible Rick.   That road is treacherous and people go waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too fast on it.   The poor man who died.
