  1. Hi everyone. I'm looking for a friend of mine. We lost touch a few years ago and I would love to reconnect. I've tried all the usual routes, Facebook, Google to no avail. Does anyone have any advice on how I can track my friend down? TIA!
  2. Hi Looking for some advice regarding a parking fine. I took my nan shopping on a Saturday afternoon to the retail park just off the parkway. We parked just outside card factory as my Nan isn't very mobile and needs to be as close to the shops as possible. I don't have a disabled badge for her with not being her primary carer. however she does have a wheelchair that we take with us. we parked and I took the wheelchair out and we went into card factory and then I wheeled her across to the other shops. Week and a half later I get a parking fine from Horizon Parking saying I I went over the 1 hour parking limit. I assumed because the other car park across from the card factory is a 3-hour stay that it would be all 3 hours stay but apparently it's not. Can I contest this parking fine? I probably wouldn't have parked there if I wasn't with my nan on was just that the parking space is a little bit bigger and nearer to where we needed to be. It does not give any information on how to contest the parking fine. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
  3. Thank you Medusa for your reply. I will definitely ask the vet about that tomorrow. Can I ask about your cats having vaccinations? Does it matter if they haven't could she still have the medication you proposed?
  4. Hi guys Just wondering if anyone has a cat with asthma? My cat who is 12 was diagnosed with a thyroid problem. Then last week she started breathing quickly and tests and scans later have revealed she also has asthma. She's had a steroid injection that should last until tomorrow when we go back to the vet. The only trouble is she's always been a sniffley cat and suffers with colds etc so my petplan doesn't cover her for upper respiratory problems. Just want to know a rough cost of treatment and if she'll be happy on meds .
  5. Thank you so much for your replies. It's really helps that other people have been through this. We had an OK day yesterday- she ate a bit more then tonight she's walking around just miaowing even though there's food down for her. I just at end of my nerves! Can I ask how much surgery cost? I am with petplan but worried they won't pay out . Thank you again
  6. Thank you for your replies. The vet did offer the surgery this evening. She says she thinks my cat is one of the few that it takes a while to settle and levels to balance out. Just have to be patient which is not my strong point! Vet says her bloods are very healthy for her age and it was only her thyroid one that came back high. Thanks again.
  7. Thank you for your reply. Surgery wasn't offered as a option because of her age. I'm back tonight. I don't think it's the medication that's making her sick as she was she was throwing up before the medicine. It's just so frustrating watching her not eating much and then throwing up. I feel like I'm torturing her
  8. Hi Really hoping someone can give me some advice! My cat will be 13 in August and has just been diagnosed with over active Thyroid. I took her in a week last Monday with vomiting. They gave her an anti-inflammatory and anti sickness. After a day she was vomiting again and off her food. Back to vets again where they did blood work and found the thyroid problem. She has been taking medication for 10 days now and we had to half her medication within the first few days as she was still vomiting. We seem to have a good day with no vomiting and eating little bits but then go back to vomiting again and eating tiny bits of food. I just want to know how long I persevere with the medication. She was sick three times before I went to bed last night and then 3 times in the night. Most of it is just clear liquid. She miaows in this awful way before she's sick and she's lost so much weight it's heartbreaking to watch as I'm doing everything the vet is asking. Hope someone can offer some advice! Thank you Laura
  9. So my two cats are 12 now. I've always fed them on Sheba, whiskers or Felix but after reading up on lack of quality meat in most cat foods I want to switch. So far I've tried them with some high protein, no grain, no added preservatives which they seem to like. I mix there wet food with some royal Canin in a morning and dinner. The only problem is it's costing a fortune. Anyone have any recommendations for wet food?
  10. I know there are other posts about this but they seem a little dated. Looking for transport to take us from the registry office up to the botanical gardens to have photos taken and then back to town again. I've got a couple of quotes but the cheapest is £750! Only need the transport for a couple of hours! Anyone got any recommendations?
  11. Hi Looking for some help locating a young bloke who knocked on my Nan's door offering to do her garden for her. She asked how much and he asked for £40. Started to cut top half of her garden when suddenly his Strimmer broke and he left with the money. Low and behold my nan hasn't seen him since. Anyone else had this happen to them in the Totley area? Any help appreciated ?
  12. Renewing this thread as some posts are a little old. I'm looking for a photographer for 3-4hours work for our wedding in July 2018. Preferably someone who isn't expensive as we are on a very tight budget. Thanks in advance!
  13. Hi Looking for some advice in the way of CCTV. Basically I want to put some up around my property. There's quite a few options online and not sure which to go for. A lot of the CCTV packages don't come with a hard drive and I'm also unsure what size hard drive I would need. Any advice would be awesome! Thank you! ?

  18. Hi! Just looking for some advice for my mum's dog. He's always been a nervous dog and never eaten out of his bowl. My mum has to hand feed him. He doesn't eat dog meat just chicken and other meat. He does eat some biscuits but only occasionally . We've had to take him to the emergency vets this evening and he's got an abcess on his tooth and needs two teeth taking out. Any advice anyone could give about feeding him or what to feed him would be appreciated!
  19. Hello! So I've been on go compare website and I'm confused! At the minute we say £72 a month for a phone (that we don't use) TV package and unlimited broadband. We're wanting to lower this cost dramatically as it's too much! We only really need unlimited broadband as we don't watch TV enough to Warrent the cost and never use the phone. I'm confused by all the mbps speeds etc. My partners child has his xbox he plays on and we hook up Ipads and phones to the WiFi, we also stream online. What sort of mbps do I need? Any help would be appreciated!!!
  20. Thanks everyone. I do automatic updates, but for some reason it hasn't been updating when it's supposed to. I may just do a factory reset as I only have pics and music on there so could just transfer them over. It's a HP Pavilion. It's not that old and like I said I don't use it for major things.
  21. Hi Was wondering if anyone could give me any advice. My laptop is about 3 years old now. I only really use it to watch stuff online and do a few bits and pieces for work. Recently it's started to slow right down. I know it hasn't been able to do updates as when it tries it just says; ' configuration failed' When it plays videos it slow times so i downloaded the latest flash player but that didn't make a difference. Can anyone give me some advice to get it back to normal? Thank you in advance! Laura
  22. Looking for some up to date advice on getting married abroad. Any experiences or recommendations? Thank you!!
  23. Looking for a fish and chip van to hire for my wedding in a couple of years time. Just wondering if anyone has hired one or know of one that serves sheffield. Thank you Laura
  24. Thanks for your replies! I am going to change his diet . He is a greedy bugger. He visits all the old ladies on our road daily for bits of food. To have a cats life!
  25. Yep, I'm wondering if it's the biscuits as he's been sick a couple of hours after eating that. No win situation though as he's a long haired cat and hates me grooming him so get the biscuits that help with fur balls! He's high maintenance!! Xx
