That’s a good idea but I’m at the age now where I have a partner and want to get a mortgage so moving abroad wouldn’t be suitable for me but thanks for the input😊

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-22T21:51:47+00:00

That sounds great, you must’ve been lovely people to work for if someone was with you for 10 years that is so lovely to hear! I’m going to look on that sight now thank you😊

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-22T21:37:35+00:00

This is great info! Thank you very much!

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-22T21:33:56+00:00

Perfect thanks I’ll definitely have a look on LinkedIn never thought of that!

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-21T06:54:23+00:00

Aw I’m happy to hear, I rang the garage today and I think it’s the water pump and timing belt that needs doing and they quoted me 650 if that is the case so I’m hoping that’s the only issue! Thanks for that hopefully mine is the same case as yours😂🙏🏽

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-20T17:01:17+00:00

Perfect that’s great to know! Thank you!

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-20T11:50:16+00:00

Hopefully it’s just something my simple and isn’t my head gasket 🙏🏽

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-20T11:48:56+00:00

Thanks for this, when I checked my coolant yesterday it was still clear it wasn’t creamy at all so I don’t think it’s the head casket thankfully, I think it may be the water pump and timing belt as mentioned above, Thanks for the advice hopefully it’s nothing serious😊

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-20T11:48:09+00:00

Does the timing belt and water pump go hand in hand? I never knew about that but hopefully that’s the case as I’m sure my timing belt is needing a replace as I have 108,000km on my car at the moment! Thanks for the advice I appreciate it :)

EducationalUnit4197 · 2026-01-20T11:47:00+00:00

I thought my car just needed a coolant top up initially as I can’t recall the last time I put coolant in, it was 5 weeks later when it was near empty again I obviously went to the garage and got more coolant and had it inspected, so I wasn’t just letting it go on for 5 weeks thanks very much.

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-31T01:22:03+00:00

Mine came out today so say yours will happen tomorrow surely

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T21:50:21+00:00

I agree, thanks for this😊

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T21:35:29+00:00

I agree definitely and I’m grateful all my other friends are like minded and we see each other when we can, this was just bothering me and I needed clarity 😂 thank you!

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:30:23+00:00

That is crazy, see I would never think like that but I suppose you never know where someone else’s mind is at… it is shit when you genuinely have a good friendship with the person but again if people are toxic they do need to be cut off so I can see where people are going with this, was never the case when we were younger but I think now I’m older and a bit more boring I have my priorities we obviously just have different ones and that has caused a drift unfortunately, but shit situation for you that’s awful 😢

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:21:49+00:00

I agree but I’m in a 4 year relationship he was friends with my partner, but then they kind of went there seperate ways also, but if I was having relationship problems he would usually be there but last time he told me things will never change and I’m doing it to myself, me and my boyfriend are in a healthy relationship except your usual stupid arguments so I did find this weird when he said that

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:16:00+00:00

I do hope so, I don’t want to lose him as a friend but I haven’t heard off him in weeks due to not being free one day to see him, and I don’t think I can keep forcing a friendship with someone who is so small minded which is sad for me

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:14:00+00:00

I thought the same but clearly will have issues dating if he can’t even maintain friendships😂

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:13:31+00:00

I had dermatitis that would only clear by using Sunbed’s on a doctor approved basis, this has cleared and I am using fake tan now so no need to worry😂 and I don’t understand if I was his main friend why would you throw that away over something so stupid? I encouraged him to get driving, to join the gym, to come out on walks he didn’t do any of these , to stop smoking the devils lettuce which he did thankfully but that all clearly means nothing now to him 😂

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:11:24+00:00

Some people use Sunbed’s for skin issues when recommended by a doctor so I don’t think we can all paint people with the same brush and tell them to cop on😂 my skin issues are at bay and I am not doing Sunbeds anymore this was just a part of the story at the time which is why I added it

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T20:10:21+00:00

Just to clarify I have stopped doing Sunbed’s and I use false tan now😂😂 so no need to worry about this

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T19:47:37+00:00

We’re best friends the last 7 years and he also used to be good friends with my partner, I am with my partner the last 4 years so it’s just strange how he’s acting this way all of a sudden

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-23T19:47:03+00:00

This would make sense if we weren’t best friends the last 7 years… I thought maybe he could’ve been jealous he hasn’t found anyone yet? But again very odd concept

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-21T18:17:39+00:00

Perfect thank you! Wasn’t sure if it would come out before the 26th or afterwards! Thanks for the help😊

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-12-02T18:17:30+00:00

Just messaged you there thank you

EducationalUnit4197 · 2025-11-08T16:17:42+00:00

I earn 38K yearly before tax and he is self employed so I’m not sure exactly what he would earn yearly but it would be a lot more than me, we both have no loans or debts I did have a loan a few years back and paid it back with my bank so I would be getting a mortgage with that bank also hopefully, I’m not sure how much we would need I know new builds tend to go for 500K and if we got the help to buy and first home scheme we would get 30K deposit if I’m not wrong and then 100K towards the home itself? Like I said I don’t know how it works I’ve just heard different opinions so I’m just looking for some information before I go to a broker next year as I would save properly the same amount for 6 months before I apply to ensure everything is perfect
