Thread | Flight issue - sorry TWTD
at 15:28 4 Jul 2024
Hi all,
Sorry I need your wealth of knowledge again please.
My flight to China has been delayed on the first leg, meaning I will miss the connection.
The next connection is not for another 2 days, meaning I will miss my hotel booking and also pre-planned excursions.
Etihad are not being helpful and my insurance say I must get a refund from the carrier and they can't help me.
I wonder if anyone knows if I am entitled to a full refund in this scenario please? I know they will try and wiggle out of it so hoping to have some ammunition.
I am trying to push for a flight the night before but seems to be sold out their side.
This trip is turning out to be a nightmare.
Thanks for any help. |

Thread | Travel Insurance woes - pre existing
at 08:40 26 Jun 2024
Hi all,
Sorry, not something to put on a forum like this but TWTD has many wise people that have helped in the past.
I have recently been diagnosed with inflammatory arthritis at my grand old age. This is an umbrella term and there are many individual diagnosis from here. As I'm still under investigation and testing, travel insurance won't cover me for this or any other conditions. I'm due to go to China next week. This is quite terrifying as the condition is considered systematic so I worry they may try to blame a heart attack for example on the condition and not cover me.
So, does anyone know of any travel insurance companies that may help even when under diagnosis? I was using staysure as they are usually good with medical conditions, but they basically told me I have no hope.
Not sure If I'm over-reacting here. Can't decide what to do! |

Is that how long they’re going to wait to get near the play offs again?
Absolutely pathetic from them.
15 years, who gives a fack, the Ipswich boys are going up! |

Thread | I'm already an emotional mess, god knows what I'll be like on Saturday
at 08:35 1 May 2024
if we do it! I hope the club don't expect us to stay off the pitch. This 18 months has been pretty awful for my family and I, and is still very bad on a personal level. Ipswich Town has very much helped me through this period so to see us get promoted after over 20 years of misery will put me in a flood of tears I'm sure. This next few days is going to drag so much. I still can't believe this is happening. Hearing it on the radio made me feel emotional, that Ipswich are now being spoken about again. What a turn around and what a club. |

Thread | Shirt Sizing
at 12:18 30 Apr 2024
Hi Everyone,
I feel I should buy my first town shirt in years (except 1 I had to return) considering Saturday could see us get promoted, everything crossed.
It seems to only be the black shirt in stock so I'll look to buy that. However, I was wondering if this is part of the range that was very tight?
With Adidas I bought an XL and it was a good fit, if not a bit too big.
I usually wear XL
But the red and black shirt I bought and had to return was an XL and too small.
Any advice much appreciated! |

Thread | Just one of those games, still in our hands
at 08:51 11 Apr 2024
We were the better team but the ball just wouldn't go in the net. The final ball and/or the final shot just wasn't there tonight. Any other game and we walk away with a comfortable win. It happens sometimes and we're still 2nd in the league with promotion in our hands. We've played a lot worse and still managed to get a result. Good performance after the defeat at the weekend.
With the 2 week recovery after the Boro game and Burns & Hirst potentially coming back, let's keep the faith! Who ever thought we'd be in this position at the start of the season!
I like the look of Taylor, gave us a lot more energy in the middle I thought. |

Thread | How are we feeling about the nodge game?
at 08:49 2 Apr 2024
I must admit, until we got it back to 2-2 yesterday, I was really dreading it. With Moore potentially missing out too, even more so. However, the attitude our players showed yesterday has filled me with more confidence. I just hope we can show the same desire that we did in the second half yesterday.
With a full squad, I'm confident we'd beat them. Still not over yesterday, my ears are ringing so badly but its so worth it! |

Thread | Is the standard of driving getting worse?
at 08:48 13 Feb 2024
Just saw a very near accident on the A14 where the Shell garage slip road joins. A white Hyundai joined without even considering a lorry in lane 1, which had to swerve aggressively, almost tipping over and coming within inches of hitting another car. Fair play to the lorry driver!!
Seem to be seeing these sorts of incidents more and more often recently. People don't seem to understand that a slip road gives you no priority to the joining traffic, it's a give way! |

Thread | Rumours of Tories bringing in 1% deposit mortgages
at 18:27 21 Jan 2024
Just when I thought I couldn't despise this Government any more.
Clearly only to try to entice the younger voters as they're desperate.
Literally just opened a lifetime ISA, so by the time I'm able to withdraw, no doubt the house prices will have increased drastically if this came in.
Although it looks good as allows more people to get onto the housing ladder, surely it only results in houses becoming more expensive any pricing out those who it's supposed to be targeting?
Or am I completely missing something? I know it's probably not as simple as that. |

Thread | Tinnitus
at 12:47 9 Jan 2024
Hi everyone,
I've had tinnitus for almost 10 years now and it hasn't caused me much distress except from the 1st year where I really struggled.
I've been to football home and away, clubbing (with ear plugs), travelling etc and never had an issue.
Since the last home game it has increased and is really bothering me again. It's affecting my sleep and sometimes my concentration as I can hear it 24/7.
I'm really considering skipping the next home game to give my ears a rest, but as stupid as it sounds, football has really helped me through a difficult year as my wife became extremely ill and spent over 5 weeks in hospital and is still recovering (but certainly very close to her normal self, thankfully!)
I wonder, for those who do suffer, do you wear ear plugs to the matches? Or take any other precautions? I'm wondering if it was actually the tannoy system. I remember it being very loud and because of the medical emergency, was on much longer than usual.
Thanks for any advice!
EDIT - also interested to hear from people that have had it long term to see how you've coped / how it's progressed in time. [Post edited 9 Jan 2024 12:50]

Playing so open against a team with so much pace and technical ability was always going to be a struggle away from home.
