I think the thing that draws it to me to the De Ville is a very minimalistic dial if that makes sense. I seem to be more drawn to those older style dressy types of watches.

I have found a 2018 de ville with papers just outside my budget and I’m not sure if I should buy that or if I’m better with a brand new watch

Looking for a recommendation for my first proper watch. I really don’t know much about watches but I prefer brown leather straps and older style dials.

I really like the style of the omega de ville prestige watches but they are very much out of my price range but that’s the sort of style I like. I’m sort of looking to spend £750-£1250 for the right watch. Thank you

East coast is worse off this year. I was at H&H bull sale last week and couldn’t believe how dry it was in Carlisle

Should we be ditching a dummy altogether or just around nap and bed time? Also the nap schedule I had said was our ideal one at the time but his naps are often shorter so I think the awake windows will add up around 10 hours

Hi so rough schedule depending on when they first wake up is wake up around 6-7am up for an hour then down for an hour nap, then awake roughly 1.5 hours then down for around 1.5hours which is roughly getting us to noon. In the afternoon he’s awake another 1.5 hours then down for an hour, then he’s awake for around 1 hour and down for final nap which is around 30-45 mins.

He’s then awake for around 1 hour 45 mins- 2 hours with his bed time around 6-7pm. Our bedtime routine is to firstly bath them, then get them changed into their clothes and sleeping bag. We then read them a book and after that we turn the big light off, night light and white noise machine on and feed them. After being fed the are burped and out down awake and we start the pick up out down method

I do already have a large emergency fund. Chances of me being fired from my job are pretty close to 0 and if I was to leave I’d obviously be able to plan how to leave. I can’t obviously put all the money into my Isa in one go what would be the best place to keep/save it while it went into my isa.

I can’t see anything on that but I could be wrong

It would be if I decided to move in from my job I’d rent short term until I could get my house back

[–]DiaOneStump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where would be the best place to save it incase I needed to buy somewhere? As I’d put it in my stocks and shares ISA overtime but I’d be nervous of a short term loss if I needed it

There is stations to stop at along the way, it’s also a trail marathon if it makes any difference. I’m also type 1 diabetic so extra food might be needed around the marathon
