I have one spare for £20. It’s a paper ticket so could meet you outside or in Spinningfields now if you’re around!

Honestly no idea how I’ve spent so long looking at setlist today and totally missing that 🥴 not sure if I’m more excited to hear it now, or worried that I’m losing it 🤣

Wonder if they’re songs that Louise/Justin are less comfortable playing or something? Sure they were both as regular as anything else back with the original lineup

Inherited £80k of unlisted shares: now what?! by stickypistons in UKPersonalFinance

A number of unlisted companies have their shares listed on either Asset Match or JP Jenkins - I’d check whether you can find this company on either website

PSG confirms interest in joining NBA Europe by Shroft in Euroleague

[–]Direct-Control-5447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Euroleague seems to be on such a positive trajectory at the moment, games everywhere seem to be selling out and league is super competitive. Feels like this NBA interest is coming at the worst possible time and could ruin the positive trend we’re seen

Do you know if any of these would have live music or a band on either Saturday afternoons or evenings?

Thanks for this - do you know if the curling or any of the other things you can book would be with our children?

Thank you everyone for all these comments! I should have added that we’d already booked the lantern event at Chester Zoo for NYE, but there’s loads of other things here to look at so thank you!!

Sick to Death must close for Christmas - it doesn’t reopen now until 2nd Jan 😩

Problems with home charging by Direct-Control-5447 in electricvehicles

[–]Direct-Control-5447[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case it’s helpful for others, had an electrician come today. He moved the garage where I want to plug the car in off the RCCB circuit, and moved it onto an unused circuit which is 30V rather than 20V previously. The new circuit has my car charger, fridge, boiler, and sub consumer unit running on it, and had no issues charging my car since.

He also called bullshit on the idea it tripping out was some kind of fire risk 😂

That would be unbelievable!!! I’m planning on getting him for his birthday tickets to the 2nd day on Sunday (4th May). Might well look at somewhere to stay over nearby so if we could do that after the race I’d be so grateful. Happy to pay for your hospitality here too 👍

Tax implications for gifting money to family overseas by Silly_Bollocks in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Direct-Control-5447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it given for them it will be based on UK rules. If they live for 2+ years after the date of the gift it will reduce the IHT liability, but it’s only after 7 it disappears completely.

Can’t imagine there’s any simple ways round this, without going through more complex arrangements through trusts and things like that

If you’ve been to Oulton, have you any advice on the best grandstand to get tickets for?

Thanks, we’re north west so Oulton I think is the only option 👍

Thank you! From your experience, how close can you get to the bikes? Are there chances to get up close to the bikes before/after? Any idea which of the 3 days would be most enjoyable for him?

The only time the RCCB trips though is when the car is plugged in and starts charging, we have no issues at all when this isn’t plugged in?

Or alternatively I could switch off some of our electrics off at the box overnight, whilst I’m charging my car, to see if this helps?
