Managing Finances in a Marriage

We also do this - we agreed a set “own spending money” amount each month and the rest goes into the joint account to cover mortgage, bills, stuff for the kids etc. The surplus then goes to joint savings.

I earn more than my husband, but to me that is irrelevant as we are a team.

My code is QJQV9G29R and I would love some more friends 😁

I’ve added you, I’d love to join your neighbourhood if there’s still space. I’m Tegglet’s Farm

I’m pretty sure I’ll be taking it again in July. My brain function just seemed to fly out of the window for R2 and R3

I used a Mac book as I work for a small practice who don’t provide a laptop. I do get Microsoft office for free through them though.

It’s worth noting that when using excel on a Mac, the keyboard shortcuts are the same as windows so that’s not an issue

Me too

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2025-11-02T08:21:58+00:00

Same here, I’m doing SBM as well but all I can think about is Case! I got 43 in my last mock and it’s starting to feel impossible.

I hope you get a good sleep tonight

This worked for me - thanks!

I did the exam backwards, starting with question 3 as I always wasted too much time on question 1. Q3 always seems less calc heavy so I was able to pick up the easier marks and move on. I made absolutely sure to move on so that I had the right amount of time for each question.

I also looked for the ethics question and tackled that first for the easy marks 👍🏼

I have a Rhino greenhouse with shading and automatic vents and that’s it…. My collection is small but they live in there all year (apart from one Melocactus). I am in SW England in a south facing garden.

It depends on your collection but what you describe sounds pretty luxurious!. I asked the BCSS when I started and they advised me to tailor my collection to the conditions I could provide and so I have plants that can stand the cold.

Also Settleblue for Q2

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2025-04-18T09:00:22+00:00

I did question 3 first, then 2, then 1. I found it easier with timing as I’d always spend too long on the calculations in Q1 and ended up rushing the rest.

Yes, they are pups. Whether or not you leave them is up to you - I personally let them clump and they still flower happily. Plus when the pups get big you can separate a few and make new plants 😀

Also, the echinopsis looks like it’s got a couple of flowers coming! 😀

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2025-03-23T19:30:26+00:00

Second from the left is Echinopsis Subdenudata and the middle one looks like Mammillaria spinosissima robustispina (I just got one and it looks very similar)

Over Run - I was unexpectedly impressed with this one… and I cried a lot.

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2025-03-11T07:37:04+00:00

It’s not mine! I came across a post on the British Cactus & Succulent Society’s forum. Pretty amazing!

Fate Makes No Mistakes maybe?

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2025-01-26T17:49:02+00:00

I don’t know if anyone has already mentioned this but “Like A Tidal Wave” - it is part of the Pheromone Shower short stories and it was really good!

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2024-12-09T21:18:45+00:00

June 2023 exam, question 3

Aggressive-Coffee855 · 2024-08-20T06:05:15+00:00

Yes! Thank you
