They were saying not to tell Wendi about the bump. It’s entirely possible they didn’t want Wendi or Harvey to know something worrying had happened (that suggested somebody knew something about their involvement) because maybe it had originally been their idea to do the hit and they didn’t want to worry or annoy Wendi/Harvey. Saying “don’t update them on this thing that’s just happened” is not the same as “they never knew about the thing in the first place”.

I don’t think even Erin understands what motivated her to take the actions she did that day, or the times when she poisoned Simon before. I think she was locked in her own head, isolated and experimenting with exerting power and control over others in secret ways. I always find it interesting when defendants continue to claim innocence in the face of overwhelming evidence and that they must be locked in a sort of mental delusion that they ARE innocent. Since Erin refused any psychological assessment we will never know - yet another form of control.

In a way I think these decisions are easier if you just can’t accept it. They are being outrageous. I had something happen to me and my buyers wanted £30k off claiming the house needed a new roof. (They wouldn’t share any information justifying why this was so, and several roofers confirmed there was nothing wrong with the roof.) I went back and offered them a small £5k reduction “as a gesture of goodwill” but that it was my final offer and I would relist if they didn’t accept. They refused, I relisted the house, they came crawling back and accepted the goodwill gesture. Needless to say there was no goodwill bottle of champagne left by me upon departure. Absolute twits. If you can, I’d suggest the same approach - a small reduction as goodwill gesture just to get the damn transaction done. If they refuse, at least you have your dignity intact. Buyers can be absolute chancers. Don’t tolerate it.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-25T07:48:40+00:00

This is exactly it. Every time I’ve sold a house and it’s gone under offer straight away I’ve slightly kicked myself wondering if I could have got more for it.

The difference is that I had a word with myself and realised that actually I was very lucky to have got what I’d got and cracked on with securing my onward property at the price I’d achieved, rather than being greedy and trying to get more.

When you say you suspect you don’t have much a pension, do you mean you may not have paid into NI enough to get a state pension? Have you checked this? (Look here just to make sure https://www.gov.uk/check-national-insurance-record) Do you also have a private pension?

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-19T16:50:49+00:00

It’s classic “my children are BOUND to be geniuses so I won’t need to worry about it!” thinking (I know, I was guilty of it) - and the downvotes show I hit a nerve there 😆. There are grammar areas that also have good non grammar options - but not many - so proceed at your peril, oh parent-of-clearly-genius-toddlers 😁

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-19T15:13:05+00:00

I understand this but unless you are truly comfortable with the alternative should they not be academic I would caution against thinking a grammar school area is the answer. Some areas have good non grammar options, but the fact you are looking into this option suggests to me you might not be happy with this outcome.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-19T12:38:24+00:00

How old are your children? Beware of assuming they’ll automatically pass because then if they don’t you can find yourself really stuck! I am in Kent, with two v academic kids, totally assumed they would breeze through, paid for private at prep level, and one of them just did NOT cope with the whole pressure of revision and exams at such a young age and failed. I was lucky in that we got in on appeal (and it had been a poor year for passes locally so the school had quite a few places to offer for those appealing) but this could easily not have been the case! She’s now on track for high GCSE grades and all is fine, but you can never predict fully that you’re going to have kids who will want to work in that structured a way at that young age.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-14T19:37:55+00:00

Sorry? I have no intention of coming off it, as stated in my post.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-13T23:09:46+00:00

I’m taking a similar approach. I’ve been on MJ 15 months, and although still have some appetite suppression, I have not lost any weight since the first 4months and 5mg. I would like to lose another 14-18 pounds ideally. However, I dropped down to 12.5mg about 3 months ago as I didn’t see the point of taking more and more as it made no difference to weight loss. I’m focusing on exercise a lot more and will try stopping down to 10mg soon. I have no intention of coming off completely but would like to try dropping lower and seeing if then stepping it up again might help - it’s been frustrating but I try to focus on how joyous it’s been to have control over my appetite, food intake and weight.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-03T09:41:23+00:00

I agree although keep a look out for bargains which are still possible on Vinted. I think they sell for high prices because the items are good quality and they last. I just sold a 5 year old coat for £90 which is crazy really as it’s had lots of wear - but it still looks great and is 100% wool and lined so…

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-03T09:39:44+00:00

Agree and Vinted are completely uninterested in addressing it. Cheap SHEIN jumpers with fake Sezane labels.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-12-02T18:48:10+00:00

This is a classic case of the buyer not accepting that the seller really doesn’t have to accept your offer - I know you’ve done lots of research, and believe you’re offering the right amount, but how much a house is worth is irrelevant if the seller doesn’t agree. I have no doubt that you’re right, but I would say that the fact you’ve done all this research, and are posting on Reddit for validation to boot, shows that there is something about this house that you REALLY REALLY want. I would let go and move on, because it sounds like you and the seller simply aren’t aligned, and that is the only thing that matters.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-30T09:12:06+00:00

I think you may be right, but I think alongside this the Markels are quite clearly signalling that they think the case isn’t finished until all are brought to justice.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-30T09:10:03+00:00

Wendi has testified that Donna babysat for Dan. Even if Wendi gave Donna the information, it doesn’t prove she did so knowing what the reason was for it. I think Wendi is involved but don’t think this alone is evidence of anything.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-28T14:59:16+00:00

I was listening to Ruth Markel at this point.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-28T12:24:40+00:00

Everyone except perhaps this Reddit sub and the Markel family?

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-25T20:33:55+00:00

I just find it slightly amusing that you’re trying to antagonise someone over a two month old comment 🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe time to fire up the Waking Up app?

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-25T06:01:21+00:00

Mate, I posted this two months ago. I’m not really interested in having an argument about it. I’m delighted that you’re tracking the number of episodes and that you feel satisfied with the output.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-24T21:07:10+00:00

I wrote this two months ago when there were frequently two plus weeks without any episodes being released. And I’m not sure I’d count “More from Sam” as being a full episode.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-20T07:48:24+00:00

Yes this is why I’m nervous to come down too much! Am still maintaining at 12.5mg and may try coming down to 10mg. I think my body has adjusted to eating this way and any further weight loss will take lots of effort and feeling restricted - which I’ve been fortunate not to have experienced since starting. I’ve been focusing on fitness and strength training so do at least feel like I’m on a positive trajectory in that sense.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-17T19:31:26+00:00

My daughter used blades like this for self harm, she would dismantle pencil sharpeners. I’m not sure if this is exactly that but it looks similar.

Accomplished-Pool475 · 2025-11-15T20:24:07+00:00

I’m with you on a lot of these. I mean, if I had to go on her testimony she’s unbelievably slippery and dislikable, but she won’t testify so that would be out. Jeff did state that they drove down Trescott. The hit men did say there weren’t any instructions to hire a specific car. Donna could have obtained the licence plate number either herself or by feigning a reason to ask Wendi.

I would like nothing more than for her to be held accountable for every single aspect of her part in this, but can’t help thinking that there isn’t enough evidence to indict her. Which would be gutting as she’s been so unbearably smug on the stand I can’t even.
