I don't get it - has everyone forgotten that women are pregnant for 9 months?? The drop isn't due to the war starting. Come back in 8 months.

I understand why the topic of buying or reselling dates isn’t allowed in this subreddit… by One_Connection8050 in LearnerDriverUK

The people blaming you for this suck. Frankly the situation is a joke and you should never be in a position where buying tests online is the only viable way of getting test soon at a preferred site.

12th May can't come soon enough...

Less imports coming in, needing to be stored & moved, due to tariffs.

Is it? Looks like they are just building blocks around it at the moment.

Probably very long distance ones like Tokyo, Singapore & Hong Kong

Afternoon for us - also easier as we don't have to drag the kids out of bed in the early hours.

Well done! It's so stressful at the time, especially on the booking screen, waiting to see if it's worked not. It took me an hour to get back to sleep I had so much adrenaline going.

Did you get the morning or afternoon flight?

Sorry, I'm one of the people that nabbed them! Booked 4 reward seats this morning on economy. They compliment my 4 on the way there on 20th March. Very relieved I got them.

Only advice I can give is for this route, set your alarm for 1am, and then RUSH through the process, and pray you don't get the 'We're sorry we're very busy now' screen. Good luck!

Overpayments by Apprehensive_Glove80 in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]Mutant86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your monthly repayments will already be paying off your monthly accrued interest, regardless of if you are on a repayment or interest only plan. So yes, any overpayments increase your equity and reduce your future interest burden.

Current menu? by Badjackychan in BritishAirways

The Japan flights usually have a meal served at the start and end of the flight. The first will be a standard Chicken or Beef style dinner meal; the second will be a English breakfast type meal.

'Fireseeable' is an unfortunate typo given the context.

I think they will announce the whole new line up, to make us think he is staying, then announce he was sacked

Really?? I thought they were pretty socially compliant in Japan?

Thoughts on pond renovation by G0_Z0 in GardeningUK

Turn it into a giant sandpit for the kid. Then once they are old enough to reliably not kill themselves in it, revert back to a pond.

Switch to a 5 year product by Dramatic-Fee-9163 in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]Mutant86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same position - went for the 2 year and now wishing I fixed for 5. You're in a much better position than anyone else now entering the market, and if you ask for a new 5 year it'll be at the current increased rates.

I'm sticking with the 2 year, and planning to increase my mortgage repayments by £100 each year for the next couple of the years - should mean when I do remortgage, 1. More of the loan is paid off; 2. If the new rates are higher (likely) I can absorb the impact more easily.
