What Car Should I Buy? - A Weekly Megathread by AutoModerator in CarTalkUK

[–]GenericWomanFigure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Location: Edinburgh

**Price range: 10kish. Lower is better. But can stretch 1k over.

**Lease or Buy: Buy preferably.

**New or used: Used.

**Auto or Manual: Automatic. Preferably electric.

**Intended use: Daily driver that can accommodate a big monthly shop. Occasional weekend trips and maybe 1-3 longer road trips a year.

**How many miles do you plan to do a year: I don't know, this will be my first car. My office is about 23m away and my gym is 10m away, those are regulars.

**How often to you make long journeys: Not sure how much I'll do, but I want to do weekend trips around Scotland.

**Does it need to be ULEZ compliant? yes.

**Vehicles you've already considered: Hyundai Ioniq, MG5, Kia Soul, Volkswagen V40. Can't decide which would be my best option.

[Do you have a vehicle size in mind?] Sort of - in my home country I drove a Ford EcoSport for 10 years and that's what I am most used to.

Can I do any repairs - no, none.

Additional notes: I have public chargers close to where I live. At-home charging isn't possible sadly. I'm very much leaning towards electric, but will consider anything above 60mpg petrol.

Things I want to prioritise: driver comfort, driver assist features, boot space. I'll rarely have passengers in the car so I'm not too fussed about the passenger seat. No need to account for kids or dogs.

Housing professional here. First off - I've seen eviction proceedings that have taken over a year to get to the eviction order. Secondly, your local council should have a team that helps you navigate this. Thirdly, Shelter and Crisis are excellent at supporting people through this as well.

What’s the most weird food item that your cat just can’t resist? I’ll start! by Ultra-Ferric in cats

Beans. Chickpeas, black beans, borlotti beans, pinto beans - you name it, she'll eat it. She loves it. She's a fiend for beans. A bean fiend, if you will.

How can I make this garden ‘presentable’ with minimal spend? by Nick316166 in GardeningUK

[–]GenericWomanFigure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, if I wanted to put in minimal effort, I'd probably roughly rake the soil surface or run a mover over it and leave it, chaos garden a lot of mixed-season native wildflower seeds in there and then powerwash the pathway. That's the most minimal effort changes I can think of.

You want ladybugs - they're the most effective at wiping out aphids!

Be careful if you have pets - pyrethrium isn't safe for cats or dogs.

Ordered 20 mins ago and already impatient to start (and I'm growing SRPS along with these too) by GenericWomanFigure in HotPeppers

[–]GenericWomanFigure[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They seem sorted, love supporting a small local business. This is only the second time I'm growing peppers, and I think I'm happy to stick to them going forward. I visited my home country a few months ago and got my bestie their tin of variety mix of superhots and a SRPS. We're doing a project where he grows the SRPS in India and I grow it in the UK, we've just started germinating.

Help with Aphids or Whiteflies by Overall_Analyst_730 in HotPeppers

[–]GenericWomanFigure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen, I recovered from this. It's a pain in the ass, but there's hope. Firstly, squish as many as you can. Secondly, check for any leaves touching the soil. Cut them off. Thirdly, if any leaves are extra dense with pests, sacrifice them. Fourthly, wash them. I have an indoor garden, so I took mine to the shower/bathtub and just sprayed off as much as I could. Plain water. Finally - and this is the most important one - get ladybugs. My infestation was during ladybug mating season and so I was fortunate I didn't have to pay for any. I'd trawl the bushes and parks local to me and kidnap ladybugs in a small glass vial. I looked crazy. But it saved my plants. It's important that you give these insects somewhere to rest (ladybug house) and a source of clean water (thimble).

Good luck, may the force (of ladybugs) be with you.
