advise is a verb

advice is a noun

see your own definitions to verify this if proof is required

In your sentence the word is used as a noun therefore advice is the correct
word to use.

You are wrong again.

No apology offered.

I am still waiting for you to supply your diving credentials.

I notice any time anyone politely answers any of your inane questions there is
no reply or comment, only more uneducated nonsense.

Are you related to anyone named Black?
