Short answer: Yes — act before 28 Nov 2026 if you don't want a price hike.

• Your current tariff (Fixed Saver 24, 24.6p/kWh) is being withdrawn at the end of 2026.
• If you do nothing, you'll be moved to their Standard Variable tariff at 34.1p/kWh — a ~39% increase per unit (plus a 61.2p/day standing charge).
• To avoid this, either:
  • Log into your account/app and pick Fixed Saver 27 to lock in a fixed price, or
  • Shop around and switch to another supplier if you can find a better deal.
• You can also just pick any of their new tariffs anytime before the deadline.

Also worth a quick skim: their T&Cs change on 1 Jan 2027 (meter readings, complaints, email contact) — nothing urgent, but good to know.

Bottom line: Don't ignore this one — doing nothing means paying more. Compare Fixed Saver 27 vs. other suppliers before 28 November 2026.

Subject: Security Deposit Refund – [Property Address]

Dear [Landlord's Name],

I hope you're doing well. I'm writing regarding the $1,400 security deposit for [Property Address]. I moved out on [move-out date], which was seven weeks ago, and I have not yet received my deposit back.

I've tried reaching you by text multiple times, but I haven't gotten a response, so I'm following up by email to keep a record of this request.

If there are any deductions from the deposit, please send me an itemized statement along with the remaining balance. Otherwise, I'd appreciate the full $1,400 refund within the next 7 days. You can send it by [check to my forwarding address / e-transfer / bank transfer] to:

[Your forwarding address or payment details]

I've left the property in good condition and believe I'm entitled to the full amount. I'd prefer to resolve this quickly and amicably, but if I don't receive the deposit or a response within the next week, I'll need to explore other options, such as filing a claim with [local tenant board / small claims court].

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards, Sam [Phone number] [Email address]

A few quick tips:

• Fill in the brackets with your dates, address, and payment info before sending.
• Check your local laws — many states/provinces require deposits to be returned within 14–30 days, sometimes with penalties for late return. Mentioning the specific law can strengthen your email.
• Keep a copy of this email. If he still doesn't respond, that paper trail will help if you file a claim.

No, that's a phishing scam. Here's how you can tell:

• The link is fake. Real DHL links go to dhl.com or country domains like dhl.de. "dhl.com-redelivery.eu" only looks like DHL — the actual domain is "com-redelivery.eu," which has nothing to do with DHL.
• Tiny fee = classic trick. Scammers ask for small amounts (€1.99) because people often pay without thinking twice.
• False urgency. "Pay within 24 hours or it will be returned" is designed to pressure you before you double-check.
• DHL doesn't work this way. Real customs fees are handled through the official DHL portal or on delivery, not via a random texted link.

What to do:

1. Don't click the link and don't enter any payment or card details.
2. Delete the message.
3. If you're actually expecting a parcel, check its status directly on dhl.com or the official DHL app using your tracking number.
4. If you already clicked and gave card details, contact your bank right away and report it.

I don't want to send you into book club with made-up information, so I'll be straight with you: I'm not familiar with Nineteen Quiet Rooms by Ottilie Marsh, and I don't have reliable details about its plot or ending. Rather than invent a twist that might be totally wrong (and embarrassing), I'd rather admit I don't know.

A few options that might actually save you for tomorrow:

1. Skim strategically — Read the last chapter or two, plus the first chapter, and any chapter titles that suggest a climax. Even 20–30 minutes can give you the ending.
2. Search for a summary or reviews — Goodreads, LitHub, or publisher pages often reveal key twists (with spoilers, which is what you want right now).
3. Honest deflection — At book club, say something like "I'm still forming my thoughts on the ending — what did everyone else make of it?" People love explaining twists.
4. Ask a fellow member beforehand — Someone in the group has clearly finished it; a quick "no-spoiler-free-zone, I need the twist" text might work.

If you can paste in the book's description, the final chapter, or even fragments you remember, I can help you piece together what happened and prep a few things to say.

Savory eggy bread with buttered leeks & parmesan — stale bread is actually ideal for this. Everything's vegetarian, one pan, ~20 min.

Do this:

1. Prep (3 min): Slice the leek half into thin half-moons and rinse well (leeks hide grit). Cut the bread into thick slices (~2 cm). Beat the 4 eggs in a shallow dish with salt, pepper, and a small handful of grated parmesan.
2. Leeks (6–7 min): Melt a good knob of butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook the leeks with a pinch of salt until soft and lightly golden. Scoop onto a plate.
3. Soak (2 min): Press the bread slices into the egg mixture, flipping once so they soak through but don't collapse.
4. Fry (5–6 min): Add more butter to the pan. Fry the eggy bread over medium heat until deep golden on both sides and just set in the middle.
5. Plate: Stack the eggy bread, pile the leeks on top, and finish with more parmesan and black pepper.

Optional upgrades if you have them: a clove of garlic with the leeks, chili flakes, or a squeeze of lemon at the end.

It eats like a rich, savory French toast — crispy edges, soft middle, sweet leeks, salty cheese. Solid dinner, not a sad fridge-clearing exercise.

Here's one that runs about 50 seconds — warm, a little funny, and only lightly climbing-flavored so it doesn't tip into cringe:

---

Hi everyone — for those who don't know me, I'm [your name], [sister]'s sibling.

When she told me she'd met someone at the climbing gym, I'll be honest, I gave it about as long as her ukulele phase. But then I met Elliot, and I noticed something. She talks about him the way she talks about climbing — not like a hobby, but like it's just part of who she is now.

Elliot, you make my sister calmer, braver, and somehow still willing to hang off a cliff for fun. That's a rare combination, and clearly you're a rare person.

So please raise your glasses — to [sister] and Elliot. May you always catch each other, on and off the wall.

---

Swap in names and you're good. The "catch each other" line lands as the closer — pause a beat before it. If the ukulele bit doesn't fit her, replace it with anything else she was briefly obsessed with (sourdough, rollerblading, a podcast).

What's on the chart:

• Ava (7) gets lighter, independence-building tasks — making her bed, setting the table, feeding pets, sorting socks, dusting, folding towels.
• Leo (10) gets more responsibility — trash, dishwasher, sweeping, folding laundry, vacuuming, bathroom sink, helping prep dinner.
• 2 chores per kid per day, Mon–Fri, with an empty checkbox next to each one and a "chores done: __/10" tally at the bottom of each kid's column.
• Daily bonus stars at the bottom to color in when both chores are finished — a little extra motivation.

How to use it:

1. Open the file in Chrome/Edge/Safari and click Print chart — it's set to landscape and fits on one page.
2. For fridge use, laminate it or slip it into a sheet protector and check boxes with a dry-erase marker, then wipe clean each week.
3. The "Week of ___" line lets you reuse the same printout all year.

You can also click any chore text on screen to reword it before printing (e.g., if you don't have pets, swap "Feed the pets" for something else). Want me to swap any chores, add a weekend column, or turn it into a reward/allowance tracker?

Here's a diagram you can open and show her. A simple way to walk her through it:

• Earth is like a spinning top that leans a little (23.5°) — and it keeps leaning the same direction the whole trip around the Sun.
• Point to the left Earth: "See how the North Pole leans toward the Sun? That's our summer — sunlight hits us more directly, like a flashlight pointed right at you."
• Point to the right Earth: "Six months later, we're on the other side and the North Pole leans away. The light hits at a slant, like a flashlight from the side — that's winter."
• Bonus: the orange/blue halves show that summer and winter are opposites — when it's summer up north, it's summer down under too... just flipped!

The flashlight analogy usually clicks really well at this age — if you have one handy, shine it straight down on the table vs. at a slant so she can see the light spread out.
