coming

In genre studies, a coming-of-age story is a genre of literature, theatre, film, and video that focuses on the growth of a protagonist from childhood to adulthood, or "coming of age". Coming-of-age stories tend to emphasize dialogue or internal monologue over action, and are often set in the past. The subjects of coming-of-age stories are typically teenagers. The Bildungsroman is a specific subgenre of coming-of-age story.
The plot points of coming of age stories are usually emotional changes within the character(s) in question.

    Issue with joint coming apart

    We have a shower drain which has a slip joint nut. The pipe keeps coming detached, leaving the nut and washer in place/attached, as you can see in the photo (towards the top). Would PFTE tape help with this? I presume not, as the nut itself is still attached.. Thanks!

    How long should I have my hot water coming on a day?

    I guess it all depends on the number of people living in a property and whether you have a shower everyday etc. But what's the recommended time I should have my hot water coming on a day. My local plumber stated an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening - seems excessive to me. Any thoughts?
