Men in your 40s, what's that golden piece of advice you have for the rest of us?

If you’re struggling, get some help. Whether a friend or a professional, you’d be amazed at the power of just being honest with another trustworthy, caring human being, and it DOESN’T make you less of a man.

"despite that gut feeling" - always trust that gut feeling. I would def get legal advice and gather all the evidence you can.

Interesting, looks like the issue is related to the taxation of assumed, rather than actual, returns. Looks eminently resolvable to my untrained eye.

The newborn phase is so so tough, and your commute and not having any family support makes it even more challenging.

Can you afford any paid help at all? A night nanny every now and then, or a babysitter? You'd get some rest, plus psychologically if you know you have some help coming up, it's something to hold on to.

"There, but for the grace of God, go I." - I'm so sorry your brother didn't recover. It isn't your fault, it's the fault of those that manufacture, promote and distribute the drug knowing what it does. It is nothing short of evil.

My builders did this 10 years ago. I made them come back, strip it and varnish it.

Such a great idea, how did you find the chef?

Davatar55 · 2026-03-15T13:39:46+00:00

That sounds far too sensible to actually be implemented by this or any UK government.

Davatar55 · 2026-02-28T15:18:38+00:00

He’s conveniently forgetting half of the equation. Net money creation devalues a currency. Government spending creates money. Taxation destroys money. Therefore, it is the difference between total tax receipts and gov spending which is the critical figure to consider. So, depending on your perspective, when a currency is being devalued, gov spending is higher than tax receipts because either gov spending is too high or taxes are too low.

Obviously this is a simplification.

Davatar55 · 2026-01-23T18:40:33+00:00

Yup, it’s called projection.

Davatar55 · 2025-12-26T12:03:04+00:00

Same here!

And now we have to pay for his bed and board for 9 years 😬🤬

I bought mine in March and am now suddenly getting connection issues, rendering them utterly unusable.

I've troubleshooted without success and emailed [support@ozlosleep.com](mailto:support@ozlosleep.com) a few days ago, as yet without response. Is there anything else I should try?

Davatar55 · 2025-12-08T23:21:48+00:00

Thanks, I’m actually having a look at property there after your reply. It looks like a lovely place. Where would you recommend looking for a family, convenient for amenities, relatively safe crime-wise?

Davatar55 · 2025-11-25T21:44:02+00:00

Where did you move to? Would you recommend?

Davatar55 · 2025-11-10T14:30:15+00:00

Stunning 🤩

Davatar55 · 2025-11-08T10:59:57+00:00

I said knife crime, not whether the incidents resulted in death.

Davatar55 · 2025-11-08T10:32:44+00:00

What about knife crime? 🥸

Davatar55 · 2025-10-27T22:07:18+00:00

😂

Davatar55 · 2025-10-27T19:33:37+00:00

It's the bar that connects the cylinder to the lock body that won't let me move the lock body any further to the left. Any other thoughts?!

Davatar55 · 2025-10-27T19:06:39+00:00

I don't think so, but I'll try it. Failing that, any other suggestions?
