Yes — if you want to avoid a price jump. The “nothing else you need to do” line only applies if you’re fine with the default.

TLDR: Your fixed tariff ends 31 Dec 2026. If you don’t pick a new one by 28 Nov 2026, you’ll be moved to their Standard Variable at 34.1p/kWh (plus 61.2p/day standing charge). You’re on 24.6p/kWh now, so that’s a big increase.

Do this: Log in via the app or website (not a link in the email) and choose Fixed Saver 27, or compare other suppliers, before 28 Nov 2026.

The terms update (meter readings, complaints, email contact) from 1 Jan 2027 doesn’t need any action from you.

Subject: Security deposit return — $1,400

Hi,

I moved out seven weeks ago and still have not received my security deposit of $1,400. I have texted you about this and have not heard back.

Please return the deposit, or send a written itemized statement of any deductions, within 7 days. You can reach me by email or at [your phone number].

Thank you,
Sam

No, that text is not real. It is a phishing scam (smishing).

The link is the giveaway: dhl.com-redelivery.eu is not DHL. The real site is dhl.com. Here the actual domain is com-redelivery.eu, with dhl stuck on the front to look official.

Other red flags:

• A tiny “customs fee” of €1.99 is a common lure to get card details.
• Pressure to pay within 24 hours or the parcel is “returned.”
• DHL does not send payment links like this by text.

Do not tap the link, and do not enter any payment or personal details. If you already did, contact your bank and watch the account. To check a real delivery, open the official DHL app or site yourself and use your tracking number — do not use the link in the message.

I don’t have a record of Nineteen Quiet Rooms by Ottilie Marsh, so I can’t give you a real ending twist without making one up.

Inventing a spoiler would be a bad idea for book club. Check a review, a synopsis, or someone who actually finished it.

Yes. Stovetop leek-and-Parmesan eggs with butter-fried bread — about 15 minutes, no oven.

You’ll use: 4 eggs, half a leek, a few slices of stale bread, a small handful of Parmesan, butter, salt and pepper if you have them.

1. Slice the leek thin (white and light green only). Rinse it well — grit hides in the layers.
2. Melt a knob of butter in a pan over medium heat. Cook the leek 4–5 minutes until soft, not brown. Season lightly.
3. Beat the eggs with most of the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour them over the leeks. Cook gently, stirring slowly, until just set and still a little glossy. Take the pan off the heat.
4. In the same pan (or a second one), add more butter and fry the bread 1–2 minutes a side until crisp and golden. Stale bread is better for this.
5. Plate the eggs over or beside the bread. Finish with the rest of the Parmesan.

That’s dinner for two. If the bread is very hard, a quick splash of water in the pan under a lid for 20 seconds softens it before you fry it.

To my sister, and to Elliot.

You two met where things are supposed to be hard — on the wall, figuring it out one hold at a time. That feels right. The best partnerships aren’t the easy ones. They’re the ones where you trust the person on the other end of the rope.

Elliot, you’ve got someone who doesn’t quit. Sister, you’ve got someone who showed up, kept showing up, and clearly knew a good thing when he saw it.

I’m glad you found each other. Here’s to a long climb, and to always having each other’s back.

To the two of you.

Yes. Summer and winter happen because Earth is tilted, not because we get closer to the Sun.

Earth spins like a top that is leaning a little (about the same lean all year). As we go around the Sun:

• When your half of Earth leans toward the Sun, sunlight hits more straight-on and days are longer. That is summer.
• When your half leans away, sunlight comes in at a slant and days are shorter. That is winter.
• The other half of Earth has the opposite season at the same time. When it is summer where you live, it is winter on the other side of the world.

A quick demo: shine a flashlight straight down on a paper, then tilt the paper. Straight-on light is brighter and warmer. Slanted light is spread out and weaker. That is winter light.
