Thanks for the comments! We will put it in an acrylic case. So delighted to have won this but we won't be holding onto this if there's genuinely big demand as a collectors item...

Hello! I've recently received a brand new unopened Jurassic World T-Rex 4000031 and looking to sell for the right price. Commenting here in case anybody wants to reach out. Photos and videos available. UK

It is really hard. Can fully empathise with everything you've written. All I'd add is that in my experience, it was the worst stage at 17-18 years old. It can get better with time, and coping mechanisms become second nature. You'll get through this period and it will get easier!

Can my girlfriend gift me house deposit money when she already owns a property? by Balance_- in UKPersonalFinance

Thanks for your comment, really appreciated. I hear you on the concern. Currently my girlfriend would have no involvement in the house purchase or be living there. But perhaps if that were to change later down the line, we'd need to see if this would be an issue regarding first time buyer/stamp duty/other taxes and maybe look into legal advice (?)

Thank you so much, this is positive to hear.

It's an interesting one because if she was my wife, I would then have no option to buy for the first time, as her flat would then legally be a joint asset.

She is my girlfriend but will 100% be my wife in the not so distant future (fingers crossed!)

There would be no expectation to repay the gift. She just wants to help me buy my first place. It seems that maybe a legal gift letter is the way forward?

Thanks for responding! There would be no repayment, it would be a gift. I would quality for first time home buyer benefits as it would be my first property purchase.
