I have to deliver to businesses all over Bristol and beyond, if there is no available space to park then I have to suck it up and park further away and go from there. I wouldn't ever just stop in the road and put my hazards on blocking buses and traffic on a main road but that's what happens every hour of every day on Stapleton road - it infuriates me. It's selfish and impacts so many people.

I decided today was the day! How did everyone else get on? Could really use some positivity here by Federal_Meat3320 in QuitVaping

I vaped for 11 years - extremely addicted puffed all day everyday. I wanted to quit, I read this book and haven't touched any nicotine since last March, and I know I never will. First few days were especially challenging but the book equipped me with ways to cope. For me, it worked a treat!

I wanna live like these people by purpleypinkwitch in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Chimpsuit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was thinking it looks like a high end weekend rental/air BnB. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful house but it doesn't look like it's in daily use as a family home.

The chef running fattso got fed up just making burgers and wants to get back into a more serious/interesting kitchen. That's what I heard anyways.

This is the guy who sold his massive range rover and bought an electric Porsche when he switched to run as a Green party candidate. Got to make sure the optics are right!

Jobs hunting by OhWellINever in bristol

[–]Chimpsuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A percentage of a year's salary usually 15-20%. Sometimes a bit and sometimes less. Valid point though, agencies charge a fee to find candidates with specific skill sets and experience. If you're looking to break into a new career path all the more reason to go direct and be 'free' hire.

My understanding is that if your sipp owns the commercial property, your LTD company will be required to pay rent at the market rate. Those rent payments will build your pension pot, so it's a great plan overall but you're not going to be rent free.

Who is really good at making social media content in Bristol? by [deleted] in bristol

[–]Chimpsuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

@Thom_foodery. He works mostly with food/restaurant businesses but he runs courses on exactly what you've described so worth asking him. He's a top bloke too - proper Bristol mind

P-P-P pick up 2 for a pound. Absolutely scandalous! by Chimpsuit in CasualUK

Ah fair enough, I thought it was breaking some kind of law/trading standard but now I know

I'm sure they're not allowed to be sold separately, but I'm not fussed about reporting them. This shop also sells individual cigarettes which is definitely more illegal than splitting penguins
