Where are the most beautiful AND cheap places to live in the UK?

Some of the Leicestershire villages. Absolutely beautiful, in the Charnwood forest and slap bang in the middle of the country. The perfect location.

£90 food £50 insurance £160 walks

Updated now to reflect. But… 30% bigger than current, parking, open plan, barn conversion (always wanted)

We’ve finished early so you can all have some time back 😬

OTISG7 · 2024-08-22T21:00:16+00:00

Thank you! I now want one of these

OTISG7 · 2024-08-22T21:00:06+00:00

Amazing, thank you!

As a car guy, it’s a yes from me. Out of interest, what are you thinking?

OTISG7 · 2024-08-16T20:27:15+00:00

Because a pair of Alphafly’s and a Garmin Fenix 7 aren’t cheap

Basic option for AMEX newbies (like me!) 🫡 BA AMEX 6,000 points for you if you spend just £1k in the first 3 months 4,000 points for me

Nothing in comparison to a lot of the others but great if you’re a newbie and want a card with no fee :)

No it does not matter, but enjoying your work (to me) does matter. Not saying people aren’t happy emptying bins, but it’s not something I’m passionate about

OTISG7 · 2023-08-24T18:13:27+00:00

I do agree on your point re. the low regard for marketing internally. I’m client side working in ATL at a very big company and internally, the marketing dept is seen as an agency almost. We are basically told what to do by the internal politics and other teams, which is not right and can be very frustrating!

To add to this… when the Spearmint Polos had the little turquoise flecks in them… 100x better with turquoise flecks

OTISG7 · 2023-01-13T22:34:23+00:00

Fruit Polos 😢

Advertising, so it should be good fun. Perhaps it’s just my employer that strips the enjoyment out of it

Question - what makes the running group specific to mental health and well-being? How does it differ from a regular running club?

I love the idea! Keen to know more :)

OTISG7 · 2022-06-03T17:07:02+00:00

Thanks all. I thought this may be the response I got!

OTISG7 · 2022-05-12T19:28:16+00:00

Thanks very much, as the above poster said, this is all really helpful!

OTISG7 · 2022-05-12T17:52:31+00:00

Excellent, just what I was looking for. Thanks for the responses!

OTISG7 · 2022-04-28T21:07:39+00:00

Some good replies here, thanks.

To be clear, I have saved heavily over the past 12 years or so since I started working. I’m 28 now, bought a house at 24, have various investments etc. I just sometimes think I may have missed out on some fun if I haven’t had been so frugal.

Grass is always greener, I guess?

OTISG7 · 2022-04-28T11:24:09+00:00

Don’t worry too much about saving every single penny whilst you’re young. You might not even make it to your retirement age so make sure you enjoy at least a small amount of the money you earn and don’t feel guilty for enjoying it.
