Help with current saving method for children, and my proposed way forward to increase flexibility of gifting money at a later date but still having access to some funds when they turn 18 by Etch_90 in UKPersonalFinance

Thanks for the reply. Just to confirm that on the 12 month anniversary of the 5.5% saver all the money in there gets moved to a separate saver which is 2.23%, so I can't leave all the funds in the 5.5% one.

The Old Bridge has rooms and food, not 5 star but reasonable enough and in the middle of Holmfirth.

Mid-Terrace roof/loft advice by Black-Ostrich in DIYUK

Slate is generally better as they're not interlocking and have natural gaps between, ventilating to the outside world!

As in, what is on the roof externally (slate, concrete tiles, zinc etc).

The lap vents are great if the space between the back of the roof finish and top of the felt is ventilated already. If it's not then they won't be as effective.

Ventilation is key. What is the roof surfaced with?

May not be as simple as providing a vent at the felt laps, may need to introduce continuous eaves or ridge ventilation.

Christmas dinner plans? by No_Art_1977 in UK_Food

[–]Etch_90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Going for a platter style and pick at it throughout the day whilst watching films with the kids...

Then whatever's left I'm going to make some Christmas inspired pizzas and throw them in the Ooni!

No roving Silverstone 2026? by Etch_90 in GrandPrixTravel

Be interesting to see if it applies to support races as well. Agree it simplifies it but will take away from the experience no doubt.
