Ling 3.2 FlashinclusionAI

TLDR: Yes — you should do something, despite the "nothing else you need to do" line (that only refers to the T&C tweaks).

Your cheap fixed deal (24.6p/kWh) ends 31 Dec 2026. If you do nothing by 28 Nov 2026, you're auto-moved to the Standard Variable tariff at 34.1p/kWh — about 39% more per unit, plus a 61.2p/day standing charge. That's the expensive default.

What to do:

1. Before 28 Nov 2026, log into your account/app.
2. Check the actual rate of "Fixed Saver 27" — they don't state it here, so don't assume it's good.
3. Compare it against other suppliers (price comparison site / Ofgem's list). You're free to switch anytime, but check if your current fixed deal has an exit fee — usually there isn't one near the end of a fixed term.
4. Pick one and confirm in writing/app. If you want no hassle and are fine paying more, doing nothing gets you SVT.

The T&C changes (meter readings, complaints, email contact) need no action from you.

Not sure what's cheapest for your usage? Paste in Fixed Saver 27's rates and your rough annual kWh and I can ballpark it.

Subject: Security deposit return — [your address], moved out [date]

Hi [Landlord's name],

I'm writing about my security deposit for [rental address]. I moved out on [date] and returned the keys on [date], and I've given you my forwarding address at [address].

It's been seven weeks and I haven't received my $1,400 deposit, nor any written statement of deductions. I've also sent several text messages that I haven't received a response to, so I'm following up by email so we have a written record.

Please do one of the following by [date — e.g., 14 days from now]:

1. Return the full $1,400, or
2. Send an itemized written statement of any deductions, with receipts, along with the remaining balance.

I'd like to resolve this without taking any further steps, but if I don't hear from you by that date I'll look into my options, which may include filing a claim in small claims court or with the appropriate local housing agency.

You can reach me at [phone] or [email]. I'm happy to answer any questions about the condition of the unit.

Thank you, Sam [Full name] [Former unit/address] [Forwarding address]

A few tips:

• Send it to whatever email address is on your lease, and CC any other address or property manager you have.
• Deposit deadlines vary a lot by state/city (some are 14–30 days, some allow 60), and some places let you recover double or treble damages for a bad-faith withholding. Worth a quick search on your local rules — it also strengthens the email if you mention the specific deadline.
• Screenshot your unanswered texts and keep the email and any delivery confirmation.
• If you have any photos/video from move-out, keep them handy in case he claims damage.

Almost certainly a scam ("smishing"). The giveaway is the link: dhl.com-redelivery.eu — the real domain there is dhl.com-redelivery.eu, not dhl.com. Scammers register lookalike domains that merely contain the brand name.

Other red flags:

• Tiny odd fee (€1.99) framed as "customs" — a made-up amount designed to feel too small to question
• 24-hour threat / urgency to rush you
• Unsolicited payment link in a text; DHL doesn't collect customs fees this way
• No tracking number, no reference you can verify

What to do:

• Don't tap the link, don't enter any card or personal details
• If you're expecting a parcel, check it by typing dhl.com yourself and entering the tracking number, or use DHL's official app
• Delete the text; you can report it to DHL (e.g. forward to phishing@dhl.com (mailto:phishing@dhl.com)) and to your carrier/anti-spam reporting (in the US: 7726; EU: local fraud line / report at police or national CSIRT)

If you already clicked: don't fill anything in, but if you did enter card details or info, call your bank now to block/reissue, change any reused passwords, and watch for follow-up calls or "refund" scams. If you installed anything from the link, scan the device / uninstall it.

If you tell me where the text claims to be from or paste the exact sender number/short code, I can point out more specifics — but don't click the link yourself.

Skillet leek, bread & parmesan "frittata" — uses everything, one pan, no oven. Assumes you have salt, pepper, oil.

Prep (3 min)

• Leek: halve lengthwise, rinse well (grit hides between layers), slice thin. Keep white and green roughly separate.
• Tear bread into 2 cm chunks.
• Whisk 4 eggs with a big handful of grated parmesan, salt, plenty of pepper.

Cook (15 min)

1. Knob of butter, medium heat. Leek whites first, 3 min; add greens, pinch of salt, cook 5–6 min until soft and sweet, golden at edges.
2. Spread leeks out, drop bread chunks into the buttery pan, toast 2–3 min, then mix through. (If bread is really hard, splash in 2 tbsp water or milk and let it soak.)
3. Pour eggs over, press everything down so the bread soaks it up. Lid on, low heat, 5–6 min until edges are set and top is just barely wobbly. Shower with more parmesan, rest 2 min. Slide onto a plate.

No lid / want it fully set? Flip it onto a plate and slide back in for 1 min.

Finish with black pepper; chili flakes or a squeeze of lemon if you have either.

Same-ingredient swap if you'd rather have soup: soften leek in butter, cover with water, simmer 10 min, salt, serve over toasted bread with a poached egg and parmesan.

Check the bread isn't mouldy anywhere before toasting. Want a version that's more salad-y or more cozy-soup, or is she egg/dairy-avoiding too?

Here's one that reads warm without tipping into cringe:

"For those who don't know, [Sister] and Elliot met at the climbing gym. Which makes sense — they're both the type to look at something hard and decide they're going up.

I've watched my sister become the bravest person I know. And Elliot, from the start, you made her laugh more and carried the quiet stuff alongside her. That's what told me you were the real thing.

So raise your glasses. To a lifetime of good routes, better company, and always having someone in your corner.

To [Sister] and Elliot."

* = frozen product · 12% service charge not included

Your steak math: the steak is priced by weight at €5.50 per 100 g ("all'etto"), with a 1.2 kg minimum. So the smallest possible steak is 12 × €5.50 = €66.00 for the two of you to share (€33 pp before extras). Add the cover charge (2 × €3 = €6) and the 12% service (~€8), and you're looking at roughly €80 total, about €40 each — for the steak alone, before any sides or drinks. Every extra 100 g of steak adds €5.50, and the final price depends on the actual weight served.

Here's a ready-to-print chart. Just print this page (landscape works well) and stick it on the fridge.

Day	Ava (7)	Leo (10)
Mon	☐ Make your bed ☐ Put dishes in the dishwasher	☐ Unload dishwasher ☐ Take out trash
Tue	☐ Feed the pet ☐ Tidy up toys & books	☐ Sweep kitchen floor ☐ Wipe bathroom sink
Wed	☐ Set the dinner table ☐ Dirty clothes in hamper	☐ Fold laundry ☐ Empty recycling
Thu	☐ Wipe kitchen table ☐ Water the plants	☐ Vacuum living room ☐ Wipe mirrors
Fri	☐ Sort laundry into piles ☐ Sweep up crumbs	☐ Mop kitchen floor ☐ Wipe bathroom counter

Easy swaps if a chore doesn't fit your house: make bed, put shoes away, load dishwasher, dust low shelves, walk the dog, rake leaves, clean toilet, pack school bag, wipe baseboards.

Two tips:

• Let them check boxes with a dry-erase marker if you laminate it (or slide it in a sheet protector) so you can reuse it each week.
• A small reward for a full week of checkmarks — screen time, pick dessert, etc. — helps a lot at these ages.

I can't make an actual picture, but here's a diagram you can sketch for her — and it's the one picture that makes it click:

                        ☀  the Sun
                          •

  JUNE: top half leans        DECEMBER: top half
  INTO the light  → summer    leans AWAY → winter
  (for us in the north)       (for us in the north)

The whole trick is in that slanted line through the Earth: our axis stays tilted the same way all year (it always points at the North Star). So in June the top half tips toward the Sun, and six months later we're on the other side of the Sun, still tipped the same way — which now means away from it.

Why leaning matters — two things, both easy to show:

1. Slanted light is weak light. Dark room, flashlight, a ball (or an apple). Shine it straight at the ball: small, bright, hot circle. Aim it at a slant: the same light spreads into a big dim oval. That's exactly what winter sunlight does.
2. Slanted light = short days. Less time each day for the Sun to warm things up.

The trap to warn her about: it's not that we're farther from the Sun in winter. We're actually closest to the Sun in early January! And the check she can do herself: when it's summer here, it's winter in Australia — same Sun, same day, opposite lean.

If she wants to make the picture: stick a pencil through an apple as the axis, tilt it, and walk the apple around a lamp without letting the pencil wobble. She'll see the lit half change all by herself.

Want me to write this as a one-page version she can read herself, or as a note she could take to class?
