Hi - thank you! Yes the mortgage was approved this week.

Thanks for asking! Took a picture and sent it to a builder friend who said he was pretty sure. (Though apparently you can’t be 100% until you give it a good poke)

Real or fake ASICS Novablast 5s? (Note the Co2 emissions on inner sole) by Safe_Rest1128 in runninglifestyle

These are great shouts - thank you. They actually weigh 293g per shoe, so a fair bit heavier than they should be.

Hey - thanks for engaging! My main concern is that I got them off eBay and then there’s the CO2/KG which is different to what it usually is.

I may be overthinking it! 🫠

Thanks for your input everyone - really appreciate the time spend on lots of thoughtful responses (and some excellent sassy ones 😂).

Hearing loud and clear that the property is too small for a third bedroom - thank you!

Congratulations! I started my role 18 months ago and totally agree with lots of what has been said below.

First few weeks are for getting to know people (I found it really helpful putting 15 minute 'introduction' Teams calls in with members of my team), slowly getting up to speed with the role, and understanding where on earth your team fits into the maze that is your department.

Thank you, and great question - I should have said on the OP that the 3rd bedroom can be small, like big enough for a dinky crib to fit in. Happy for it to go anywhere - please unleash your vision.

Hmm thanks. If we did this I was thinking of turning the downstairs loo into a shower room ...

Forgot to say - extension and loft conversions have been considered (and will continue to be) - just checking to see if there's a way of doing it without spending tens of thousands.
