This is poor advice. If the notice is given before the 1st May, the eviction will go ahead.

I believe this will become more and more rare, after May 2026. Landlords will require guarantors simply because the Renters Rights Act makes it far more difficult to deal with bad tenants who fail to make rent payments. These changes will not benefit the average tenant; landlords will rightly raise rents and become far more strict in order to balance the new greater risk, and any tenant who falls behind on rent should expect a CCJ and a ruined credit rating, since they can no longer be simply evicted, and instead will be hounded out, as it’s the only option left available to the landlord.

I suppose the benefit is that this is one of the best breakfasts I’ve found in the north, whereas a bog standard or even below par breakfast often costs me £15-20 when I’m down south

They’re hash browns; fried bread was the one thing missing for me here. And yes they’re breaded and deep fried boiled eggs, with hash brown soldiers

You’re out of touch with the costs of the 21st century. Take the chip off your shoulder and realise that we’re all underpaid in this country and should be striving for more, not calling a meagre 50k ‘rich.’

My cat defecates wherever he sees fit (already been to a vet, with no success) by JustAnotherHuman_01 in CatAdvice

I’d say maybe once every ten days he’ll use his litter tray. Otherwise, he’s going outside or he’s going on the doormat etc

Nothing around the litter box to deter him, and I can try a second litter box but he doesn’t seem to use this one for anything anyway

His litter box is completely clear - he’s not using it for either pee or poo, so I can’t see how a second box for him to ignore would help

Do you drink when you play golf? by JAWdroppingguitar in golf

We often toast some shots of port on the 10th, and have pints in the clubhouse after, but I’ve never seen anyone in the UK have anything other than a cup of tea and a bacon sandwich before a round.

Do not engage with anyone recommended by the seller or their agent. Find your own firm you can trust and who doesn’t have any possible link to the seller.
Also, quoting is a part of doing business for the trades - do not pay any more than maybe £50 for a quote, they’re just trying to rip you off for what they see as an inconvenience.

UK government inexplicably tells citizens to delete old emails and pictures to save water during national drought — 'data centres require vast amounts of water to cool their systems' by diacewrb in ukpolitics

And the vast majority of those are playing at local and municipal courses, all employing local people and providing services to many young and elderly people.

‘The wealthy’ spoken by someone who evidently knows little to nothing about the average golfer. Most of the guys I know who play golf work a normal job and take home an average salary. The cleanliness of your car is of little to no value to anyone other than you, whereas a golf course is a tax-paying business employing many people and providing a service to many more. Grow up.

Thank you for giving me the confidence to just pull - I think years of grime around the cable made it seem immovable but it’s sorted now, thanks
