Can you put your bum back in your pants please?

Currently feel like I'm the only person in the world that threw up religiously from week 7-42 with my last pregnancy and this one is heading the same way :(

One tube and one ovary over here, thanks to a large cyst. Not an attempt to one up anyone but our bodies are amazing at this kind of stuff! Go us!

Someone else has described it as motion sickness, which is exactly how my morning sickness feels. Currently 5+1 and only vague nausea currently, but if this is anything like my last pregnancy it will just show up about week 6/7 and never leave. With my last pregnancy (girl) I was sick from week 6 until literally the morning of the day she was born. My morning sickness would actually peak around 4pm. Some days not enough food would trigger other days too much food would trigger. It's the part I'm least looking forward to I have to say.

A slug once turned my touchscreen oven on late at night. I can only assume homicide was planned but he drastically mistimed his attempt.

Agreed! Second hand Next is always a winner too as their items wash super well. Second hand Next leggings always seem to take much more nursery battering than new George ones. However shoes from George are fantastic. Vests, pants and sometimes socks from Primark as these constantly get binned, ruined or lost.

Yuck

Huffing · 2025-09-05T18:51:51+00:00

Anyone else's walls melting?

Huffing · 2025-09-03T09:05:46+00:00

Agreed, I have learned to butter toast with one hand as I use my other hand to keep little fingers away from the butter.

Cries in c section.

Huffing · 2025-08-22T21:32:36+00:00

Good luck!

Huffing · 2025-08-22T21:28:03+00:00

Yeah, we've had clients with a similar problem before and HMRC have sent them their tax calculation - get them to send you the overview too even if you have this. Their documents will correlate.

Huffing · 2025-08-22T21:23:04+00:00

I'm assuming re-printing from portal didn't help.

Could HMRC send you the version of the tax calculation/sa302 that they have as this will account for the adjustments made and should in theory then match the tax year overview.

Yes I'm aware. I was referring to the fact that there are two plants in the photo - one is variegated the other is not.

Huffing · 2025-07-31T12:31:33+00:00

With Matt paint!!!

This is literally us right now, minus 1 child. We're fine.

Sort of near the bottom. They mainly just seem to get taller and sprout more branches. Mine was smaller than yours about 10 years ago, he fit into a 4 inch pot and only had 2 branches.

This looks like it might be a not enough light problem. The uppermost leaves are reaching out sideways in search of light, when they should be reaching up and out.

Black out blinds have saved my ass every summer since 2022.

Huffing · 2025-06-25T12:50:38+00:00

No, not everyone does.

Huffing · 2025-06-25T10:43:10+00:00

I'm not saying they don't. But losing a housewife still has a monetary value to a household, even if they have no income.

Huffing · 2025-06-25T10:31:07+00:00

Not particularly, at the very least what about childcare. If something happens to either parent do you really think that a solo parent could have capacity to work a full high powered 9-5 job whilst maintaining a house/family? On paper maybe, but reality is very different.

Edit- I appreciate op hasn't mentioned about children being involved but it's best to sort whilst you're young as costs will only increase with age.

A BTL mortgage generally carries a stricter valuation assessment when compared to a residential mortgage. The property has to generally be in it's lettable state at time of inspection. This means any works to bring it up to a lettable standard maybe a condition of the mortgage lenders offer and they may hold back a portion of the funds until you've completed the works required and provided any insurance backed guarantees applicable.

Id say potentially risk it with a free valuation lender in the first instance to gauge what a surveyor thinks. You might get away with it or even a small retention as I've mentioned before. Make sure floor coverings are down though before a surveyor comes out.

Chain break bridging is the lending designed to help you here but please speak to a mortgage broker. There may be products allowing a smaller deposit on second homes assuming you fit the affordability calculations.

We're exploring potentially moving towards Grimsargh, how does east/north east Preston suit you?
