Same with us. Last cycle we converted fewer insurance choice at UG because RG took students with lower grades who would normally drop down to us & then they were in Clearing too. For PGT - in the UK it's mostly international, and from the little sector data we have nobody is having happy times.

....and then we convert fewer home students and we are financially stressed. These are also just the latest in a long list of redundancy announcements. We made ours a couple of weeks ago.

You know this, but it is more complicated than that. HE is an ecosystem, when it's stressed in one area it impacts all of us, and while international student numbers are falling everywhere, higher ranked institutions just fish in the ponds that us lower ranked are in for Home recruitment instead....

Luckily I live in a country with socialised healthcare. I also don't get any medication from my clinic, the focus is on interventions which don't use analgesia in order to reset the nervous system.

(3/3) Why is it so hard for middle aged women to have their pain taken seriously? There is a world of difference between a nervous system disorder that results in chronic pain and fatigue across the whole body and a degenerative spinal arthritis that can in the worst cases shorten your life.

(2/3) Petitioning from the physio & my GP did not change their mind. Today I went back to my Dr because despite the best efforts of the pain team & myself following the ABC protocol, I am still in significant pain every day. My GP agrees that I am a textbook case of AnkSpon so we are trying again.

I don't think so. It's the holes down the middle, like the human sacrum. It's very delicate and light looking which would indicate a bird and their pelvises are elongated compared to ours. But they do look like skulls. Almost dragon ish.

Possibly a seagull pelvis?
