    im thinking of what to get when i go to kfc on sunday. i checked the menu and the twister wrap looks nice. but it doesnt come with chips and a drink. so im thinking of getting the four piece boneless meal.

    @toffuna101 If you get the KFC app on your phone or parents phone, you can get some good deals on there, or even some freebies. Might be worth having a look at.

    interesting @DonnerKebab i heard mcdonalds has the same thing but i usually just order as a guest there. maybe i should try it out, who knows lol.

    greggs give a free doughnut for your birthday on there app, mcdonalds have a reward system (i get a free big mac every now and then as part of said reward system) and certain offers come up from time to time like £3 for a big mac and fries occasionally. It's good stuff. I don't use the KFC app as much, but you can get all sorts of stuff and they have all sorts of offers on there. Definitely worth looking at. Btw, if you're a student, add your student ID to the KFC app, verify that you're a student, and you get something free if you spend above 5 quid. It say on KFC's website that it's a free Popcorn Chicken Snack Bucket.

    damn thats worth it. i might start downloading these apps then. i dont go to greggs at all but i might go on my birthday and download the app. also im not a student yet so id probably have to wait until september. im not sure if college counts as being a student as these companies only consider uni students to be eligible.

    @toffuna101 don't worry, when i was in college, i was eligible for student discounts the same as at uni. KFC treated both the same. They'll give you a student email account at college, and you just need to sign up with that to something called studentbeans. It's free, and verifies your student status, and KFC will approve the student discount. Each time you go and spend £5, you get that freebie.

    @River I'm doing alright thanks. My legs still killing me 😂

    How's your day going?

    and remember, i'm here to talk to if you want about anything. I might not be able to make things better or say the right stuff, but you don't need to be alone through anything your dealing with.

    @River if it still hurts as much tomorrow, then i'll go. For all I know it might just be a minor fracture and can heal on it's own, and the indent in my leg might just have some other explanation besides a break. Plus, my leg falling off would be an absolute sight 😂

    and tbf river, same day doctors appointments are notoriously hard to get. It must suck having to do those chores that often instead of going. My mum had me cleaning the entire kitchen up this morning even with my leg being as messed up as it is, as well 😂. Still, it is what it is. There's always tomorrow for the doctors for you.

    @DonnerKebab in my house I’m the only person to clean and tidy everywhere whilst my mum messes it all up just after I’ve cleaned

    We get emergency same day appointments 🥲 if not u have to wait 7 weeks

    Yes u need hospital

    @River I know that feeling so much. It's not just my mum for me, but also my younger brother who doesn't know any better. So I'm spending all the time tidying up after everybody, keeping things nice, doing the dinners and doing their chores for them pretty much, and they just mess it up instantly. It sucks. I really can't wait to get my own place, or leave the country for either australia or america and just do me for once 😂You ain't alone in hating that.

    And i'm glad your able to get emergency appointments. My GP just has a policy of, if it can't wait a few days, go to the walk in centre. The irony of it being called "walk in" given my leg's condition is not lost on me 😂😂😂 If tomorrow it still hurts as much as it does now, then i'll just go to A&E then.

    Are you able to go to your doctor tomorrow then btw?

    @Redemption cheers mate, it's good to be back. How are you doing?

    @DonnerKebab no problem bro, I'm not too bad thanks I'm just kinda irratable like I have a bit of an urger to kick off like at my course on the last day they told me a long term goal, so I said 1 of mine which is buying a house but they were like be more specific on buying a house, like what area, when by, I was just thinking "I dont fucking know what area" and I don’t know what area,
    its whatevers affordable and safe at the time or I don't know when by, depends when I get a job, have the money. I know they kean well, trying to help me get my goals and its me Im just so irratable and I don't kick off but have that urge to not like anyone is doing wrong I just feel so easily triggered and irratable. I got a meeting about my next steps on Friday. Anyway, sorry to make it about me, how are you? Did you have your GP appointment yesterday, if so how did it go if you dont me asking?

    definitely @DonnerKebab !! i just got into work though to see my name is in fact on the list of who is on shift today but i’ve been given no actual allocation lolllll

    @shannon_164 If you haven't been told, then that sounds like a them problem, not a you one. pretend to know nothing, and deny having ever seen that they put you on shift, and then blame your boss for not letting you know 😂😂😂

    hahaha @DonnerKebab to be fair when i said to our sales desk agent she said to go wherever i wanna be so i goes “ok bye then i’m away home” hahaha but ive had such a chill day tbh, on my way up to gates now to board a flight that has a 2 hours delay so me finishing in 40 mins means i ain’t gonna be here lol

    @Redemption no problem mate, i'm happy to hear you get all this stuff of your chest.

    It's a long term goal, and the smaller details don't matter when talking long term. Housing prices change, area's become cheaper or more expensive. In long term planning, besides the aim to buy a house planning one day, that's generally the most you can plan for in regard to it. So don't feel angry about not being able to plan things in finer details, because when it comes to that, that's the most you can really do.

    And getting angry and frustrated is normal, especially given the circumstances. What's good redemption, and is progress, is that despite having those feelings, you still control them and don't kick off. That's improved self control, so you should be proud of that.

    And i didn't. I haven't made an appointment yet. Sounds silly, but I don't like the doctors. They're utter pricks. I'm waiting on my passport to come through to use as photo ID to get into a different GP practice. If it still hurts and if i'm still passing out by every now and then tomorrow, I'll go to A&E instead. Thanks for asking bro.

    @Redemption my issue with my doctors are that they are useless. I have been told by them before, that because i had a medical issue for so long, it never needed solving. They honestly could not give a shit about me. I've had infected wounds that have caused fever, shaking and vomiting, and thought i'd rather face my odds with that than seek out my doctors "help". Hopefully i'm able to change GP soon enough and find doctors who do care.

    Worst case scenario for my leg is it continues to hurt and sting, i continue passing out from time to time, and I just go to A&E instead. It's as simple as that.

    And yeah, i will have to come along for a support circle next week. I'll sign up when the forms are open.

I try to go on circle every couple of weeks just to give other people the chance to be able to join so might not join next week but yh. I just hope you feel better soon and hope you're, I hope your family are OK with you.

    I’m so sorry for ruining circle and for being the reason it had to close early, sorry @shannon_164 and @Redemption

    I hope everyone has a nice night. I will be off for the night due to current circumstances. Sleep well. Sorry again.
