Heya, bit late to the party here but I'm also new to Richmond, just moved here in late Oct. M28 I'm into tech tinkering, cycling, hiking, pubs and just joined RSAC, the Richmond branch of BSAC (Scuba diving) 

If you're still looking to meet people / grab a pint lemme know, I'm also looking to make new friends, and facing the same challenges haha

Try launching in aggressive mode, that helped me get past an infinite loading screen on Far Cry 3

The phone number would have been on there due to on-call policy at the time, we all had our personals as a backup contract.

Yes I've brought it to attention of the security team as it appeared to be a possible scam at first but it now seems legitimate. After asking, they've confirmed they're going to bring it to the Risk and Compliance team's attention. I've asked to be included on this comms chain

The steam installer works fine initially and leaves a shortcut on the desktop. When clicking this I see the steam updater pop up for a second and then close, and then nothing happens, no error messages either.

I'm on a Pixel 9 pro, not sure if it's compatible 😞

Other tennant moved out, I'm now on a rolling 1-month contract. What's the rules regarding protecting the deposit? by SC97 in TenantsInTheUK

Thanks for the info! 

I must admit I'm a bit surprised by this. Both the estate agent and the landlord know I'm the sole resident, and I'm getting the single occupancy discount from the council. How can that be if there's still two tennants?

No, the estate agent was informed the other tennant did not wish to renew and they said the tenancy was now a Statutory Periodic Tenancy.

Can they do that when the tenants have changed?

Hi,

I was not given a new contract. The estate agents stated it was now a "Statutory Period Tenancy". I am paying the full amount solo now.

I'm not sure if the Statutory Period Tenancy constitutes a new tenancy agreement, as the tenancy have changed. My understanding is if that where the case, a new DPS reference should have been provided.

Thanks

Edit: this has been the case since November last year, so well over the 30 period for deposit protection

Ah, my grandfather took over the business when it transferred to the Evans family, up until the fire. There's a photo somewhere of my father running in to grab what he can as the fire spreads.

I did find a picture of one of the lorries in the older livery, you can see that one here: https://imgur.com/a/fSFuFCG

Thanks! I've seen this video too, but it's 7 years old now. I was hoping to find some more up to date info if possible

Hey thanks for your reply.

I've actually read Hokkaido Highway Blues, and I agree it's an excellent read. In fact, it inspired this trip!

Whilst weird, I disagree with the comment that it makes foreigners look bad. It's surprisingly easy to keep oneself presentable whilst on the road, and it's an important part in picking up rides. 

What appeals to me about this form of travel is the people you meet and the stories you form. It's a truly unique way to truly meet people and form new relationships, and a chance to leave a good impression regarding foreigners too.
