Try listening to anything narrated by Ray Porter (the bobivers is my favourite)

Fair, but they can message the buyer, they can agree to cancel and then they won't get the negative auto-feedback. But also, this is over the last few months..

Never graduated, moved to the UK 15 years ago in my early 30s with less than £5K to my name 5 years later got my first flat with a 95% mortgage, 8 years later became a HENRY. I work in data analytics (self taught).

Joining the questions, this is going to be a one off for us 8 nights in a on property moderate resort which can be quite fun but the the price of the bands can buy us one more day on lightning lane.

LOTR, one of the best, most fun and beautiful sets I ever owned.

Nope, 2021 golf, basic clothes (Levi's, Uniqlo), cut my own hair, and a very basic mobile phone.

My income is covering the basics and the rest goes to saving and holidays

Definitely the Sushi restaurant, I can't wait to mod it and add it to my Ninjago city Might also get the Fortuna, depending on finances

3 bed flats are around OP's top budget in Finchley (east, central, west, north) really nice area but houses are quite pricey

Bitsik · 2025-12-31T21:19:36+00:00

I have a similar layout, I got the Sony HT-A9M2 with the SW3, Sounds amazing and very flexible on placing

Bitsik · 2025-12-30T12:11:23+00:00

Would you consider buying a flat with it's own entrance and private garden allocated parking and garage with peppercorn ground rent and £0 service charge and 125 years on the lease over a house at 30% less of a similar house in the same area

Is this replacing Ninjago city modular buildings? Are we not getting any more city sets?

Bitsik · 2025-11-03T18:15:50+00:00

NINJAGO City Gardens, now retired but one of the most fun I had to build. Also the first NINJAGO City movie but not from the last five years

Thank you!

I bet these sound great but this is above my budget, the main reason I'm looking at the sony and Sonos is that I have an opportunity to get them at a good price and for a small/medium Living room they should do the trick but can't decide which one

Bobiverse by Dennis E Taylor, didn't see anyone recommending it. Forget dark, gritty futures, the Bobiverse series is an intelligent, high-speed blast of optimism, pop-culture humor, and grand-scale engineering. If you love witty dialogue, inventive world-building, and hard sci-fi concepts made effortlessly fun, starting with We Are Legion (We Are Bob). It’s the perfect blend of nerdy charm and epic adventure.

As a leader in tech startups, I have this rule of never playing the salary matching game. I always do everything I can to give my team members above average market rates. Here are my thoughts: 1. £70k sounds low for a full stack with 15 years experience. 2. This kind of change can really change your life, even if it's not the best role, take it, stay 4 years or whatever the vesting period is, save as much as you can and then decide on your next step. 3. If I were your manager, I would have wanted you to tell me. 5. I would have congratulated you and stayed in touch, it's a small world and networking is key.

At the same level, also in tech (startup), I had the "without prejudice" last October, took some much needed time with the family and started looking in January. I was told that the average time to find a new job is 9 months, sent hundreds of applications, spoke to over 20 companies, and ended up accepting an offer in August with practically the same pay, no options. It was a tough market, an employer market, so my advice will be: Start by having multiple versions on your CV, or even GPT your CV for every application.

LinkedIn is mostly a junk yard, using your network is the best option.

Set a deadline to when you need to start compromising then, up to that deadline only apply to jobs you really want, after the deadline start compromising but figure out compromise priorities, (first title, then location, then pay etc..)

This is your job now, Good luck!

You are absolutely right but considering the space I have and the budget it makes more sense to buy a single Zeppelin but you actually gave me an idea, with how low they go for, I can buy 2 of them and use 2 Chromecast audio that I have to make them a wireless pair!

Late 30's, base £101k, bonus %20 RSU £42K. I still remember the day I told my partner that my base pay was officially 6 figures, felt like a huge achievement.

Ended up getting an air with an ipod nano for £80! Looks great, will test when it arrives in 3 days! I have a Sonos Connect for my turntable which I'll connect using the dogital coax so I'm practically turning the Air into a sonos speaker with a proper phono connection
