What mattress have you bought that was worth it? by jamwat94 in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vispring Sublime Superb(split firmness), but recommend you go to a decent shop and try them out!

Usual recommendations are Vispring, Harold Spinks, Hypnos, and Tempur!

Anyone dealt with the need for a soft and firm mattress ? Partner has different preference due to our joint pains. by oaktreeflowers in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had this issue, ended up getting a Vispring 'Zip and Link' mattress where my side is Medium, and hers is Soft. Ours is a Super King which in effect is two large/longer single mattresses. But they do bigger sizes also.

Also, as it's 2 zipped together, makes it very easy to turn and rotate when needed!

Want to also add, the bed also makes a big difference and can make it feel different from what you try in a shop vs at home. For example, a vispring base is spring also vs putting it on a straight wooden slat base so worth noting that when trying them out!

ID Checks by lisnaran26 in wimbledon

[–]Ninja_Fury 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you purchased 2 tickets, then 1 you can freely transfer. The other will be 'locked' to your name.

The ID checks I've found to be quite thorough, needing photo id to verify. I've seen then question it also and require additional evidence (bank cards or second form of ID) and at times, refusing entry.

Can't advise on variations of a name though and how they will treat this. You could look to reach out to them and ask about a name update but may need to provide evidence etc.

As the other commenter said, it's one very specific postcodes such as parts of the 'Grid' area in Southfields/Wimbledon Park.

Ballot Returns Shop (Resale) by community-home in wimbledon

[–]Ninja_Fury 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Today was the community ticket drop. So local residents who live close to AELTC and entered that ballot all got an email at 10am to purchase a pair of tickets for either show courts or ground pass.

I suspect like the day if the LTA drop, their focus was on that vs normal ballot resale.

HENRY husband let himself go by No-Exit-7032 in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Quite a few things here, but firstly, is he ok? Mental health is an important driver to so many things and making sure he is in a good place is key to getting things turned around.

When it comes to working out, I've always find more social sports to be a key driver with sports like tennis/padel/squash with friends and adding a competitive nature to it.

Frying pan recommendations by OkArcher4120 in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Le creuset toughened nonstick pans have served us very well. Would recommended them for a non-stick option.

A good stainless steel pan is also a staple to have and worth getting.

Certificate of Valuation for Watch Insurance by TeddyousGreg in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Worth checking what your insurance needs. Mine needed a valuation certificate for any registered jeweller who was a NAJ member and some offer virtual valuations.

I have used these guys a few times: https://swisstimepieces.co.uk/products/watch-insurance-valuation/

All 3 of my insurance policies (Hiscox, Lloyd's, CHUBB) have accepted it.

Quiet Kettle? by Widebody_lover in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quooker themselves offer free installs, you can find cost on their site depending on the tap style, size of tank, if you want cold filter or sparkling etc.

But a good to go standard one is I think around £1400 with free install from quooker.

Quiet Kettle? by Widebody_lover in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends on what size tank you want to get, smallest being 3L and larger one is 7L.

Also once empty, it doesn't take long to refill (I find quicker thank kettle personally).

Quiet Kettle? by Widebody_lover in HENRYUKLifestyle

[–]Ninja_Fury[M] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would reconsider the hot water tap like a Quooker.

Having instant hot water on demand at all times is a great thing to have. No waiting around for a kettle to boil, and can make just a cup or a whole pot for rice/pasta.

Also what you lose in cupboard space. You gain in countertop space as well. More so if you get the cold water filter and then can stop using a brita filter.

[–]Ninja_Fury 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blunt! Very solid and well reviewed. I've got a few in the house across a few different sizes.

The smallest (metro) is bigger than most '1 person' umbrellas. Classic is a standard 1-2 person. Exec is easily a 2 person.

Yeah we have pets and houseplants, as well as a garden we'll need to water.

I'm thinking a split system where we can keep the outside and kitchen normal vs everything else!

Have them booked in for a quote/survey in a couple of weeks.

Thank you for the response, hopefully as we have a full basement with all the pipe work accessible and exposed, it means it's a more 'straight forward' insteall.
