I thought you were eligible for settled status after 5 years of living in the UK for 6 months or more each year? Assuming you don’t get citizenship through your wife. (Edit: I see you’ve explained this in another comment further down, that sucks)
Sorry to hear about your redundancy, that does suck.
Friend of mine got covid and it just sent her sense of smell completely out of whack. Nothing smelled like it did before. A curry smelled like wet trees, she said. My leathery / amber perfume smelled like talcum powder to her. It was so weird!
Honestly, I’d plumb the depths of nostalgia with these, find some of the stuff you used to use as a kid. Imperial leather, Badedas, whatever it is. It’s a cheap and fun way to really evoke some memories, smell is so powerful.
I grew up in Italy so it’s Borotalco for me.
I have a fondness for this soap’s smell as well.
Scon to rhyme with gone is how posh people say it - the Queen said it that way herself!
I did with my S10+, so you definitely could more recently.
Having said that I’m finding the crud much reduced on my S23, like they don’t try to push bixby down your throat every 10 seconds.
