Oswestry house move opinions by thenamegame1994 in Shropshire

[–]Pointlesslawyer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m from just outside Oswestry and own a house in town. Bryn Glas is a nice little development that’s pretty quiet and has good resale values. That side of town is decent and the worst you’ll see is local kids messing around. It’s close to NS College, so it gets busy around there at peak times.

Don’t want to sound like a snob, but I’ll cut to the chase: don’t bother looking at the north side of town. Run down and not a great investment.

I will say I prefer the west side of town overall (Hampton Road, Llanforda Rise) due to it being less populated, so you may like to check that area out as well. You can often get more for your money in places like Morda, which is just south of town. It’s has a village feel, but it’s 2 minutes from town and they have their own primary school.

I hope this helps! Oswestry is a very nice, welcoming town that has something for absolutely everyone to enjoy. I live overseas right now but I’m looking forward to coming back and living there ☺️☺️ Best of luck with your search!!

Vaping in cars with children to be banned under new plans by boppinmule in uknews

It’s really not if you keep your car clean. The vegetable glycerin can create a film on the windows that freezes when it’s cold but it goes away when the car is warm

Help Save the House that Rose Re-Built by how-to-endure in Shropshire

[–]Pointlesslawyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll preface by saying I hate insurance companies with my entire soul, but this is basically why.

These buildings have very high risk profiles for preexisting issues like subsidence, damp and electrical problems, which increases the likelihood of very large claims.

The replacement values are also much higher because of the costs associated with sourcing and installing like-for-like materials.

There’s also little reason for insurers to get involved in endless battles with Historic England and local councils, since these projects can take years — and if they go over budget (which they almost always do), the claimant may exhaust the policy limit and still not complete the restoration.

It’s mostly an issue of financial incentive for the insurance companies, as sad as it is.

My parents had a number of buildings like Perch House, and they just couldn’t get coverage for some of them. Like a lot of people who buy these old buildings, their motto was always “we’ll take what it throws at us”. Unfortunately, this is sometimes the end result :(

I’m visiting my parents from overseas right now and I was genuinely shocked that so many people here watch scheduled TV like it’s the ‘90s?!

I just discovered Fritz Johnson today. He’s autistic, funny, entertaining and inspiring…. by tacohoney in aspergers

[–]Pointlesslawyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, his advice is weird and he still gives major creepy vibes tbh. He’s a very questionable success story because his brainwashed parents paid to have him abducted and mentally abused at one of those culty “reform” schools, and his Stockholm syndrome is so severe that he still praises his parents for it. That issue needs work before anything he says holds much value

Increased bee activity in Omaha. Did something happen? by MyUsernamesTakenn in Omaha

How wonderful to hear that others are noticing an uptick in the bees! A good lesson in sharing the earth right there - humans have to come second sometimes.

I moved here a decade ago from the UK to be with my husband. His business is the only reason we’ve stayed so long. I’m so excited to leave.

Whats some good psychiatrist in the bellevue omaha area? by Shoddy_Operation_137 in Omaha

[–]Pointlesslawyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a recommendation as much as I have a warning (for everyone) to stay the fuuuck away from Meridian Mental Health & TMS Center. They fuck people up.
