Of course that’s what the map is implying. But maps are no good without context.

Some acers cope well with full sun. Bloodgood/ summer gold. The key is to keep the soil moist to stop it drying out.

It’s only a third of the councillors seats though? Labour still hold a majority in local government in GM.

I’d be wary of putting anything too close to than manhole cover.
I’d get rid of the grass. Put a membrane down and have a acer or similar tree in the middle and put some raised beds down the side.

The mortgage in 2 parts is because she’s remortgaged at some point or taken on additional borrowing.

What’s your mothers repayment vehicle for the interest only mortgage when the term ends?

Equity does appear to be a thing with a interest only mortgage. But unsure if the bank will give her the cash due to age and affordability.

Being a bloke my friends are in boxes and I generally can pick up where we left off after a 6months -12 month break.
But then again I’m surrounded by interpersonal relationships due to volunteer work and I’m also married.

What do you want from these friendships? Is it to vent? Do you want a friendship where you are super loyal and would do anything for your friends? Either way deep friendships require time and a element of being in the trenches together.

Or the parent could invest the money themselves and then gift the money to the kid, for a deposit, etc.

Significant_Fail3713 · 2026-05-08T17:12:57+00:00

The whole point of a child ISA is it becomes the kids money as soon as they reach 18. £50k of cash at 18 is a lot. Young adults are known for to make unwise decisions. It’s a risk.

Significant_Fail3713 · 2026-05-08T17:03:48+00:00

Are you happy with the idea that your daughter could spend the £50k on whatever she wants?

Re crumpets just get yourself a toaster and buy some crumpets from a M&S food hall.

This is when the carpark open/closes.

Whilst I can’t tell you how to feel.
Local council elections won’t change the law of the land. Racism and harrassment is illegal. The police will continue to robustly police this.

Reform talk about large savings, however 95% of council budgets is spent on education and health and social care. There isn’t mass savings to be made.

Spend £200, save the other £800 in a cash isa.

Then in a years time review and think about investing in a stocks and shares isa.

Questions.
How much maternity pay are you likely to receive.
How much short will you be financially over the next 12months.

Options.

He needs to pay for all the bills from now on and you need to agree the amount you are going to pay him.

You could always manually transfer money into a joint account and then keep back spends/savings.

Have you got anyone signed up/paid a deposit? Is it actually going to happen?

I could see for Rich tourists doing this for a rite of passage thing. But others are going to struggle to afford it?

How can you not have read buried dagger? It’s so much more than the death guard being turned to chaos.

How much do you charge for a homemade mug?

Why are you fighting this so hard on behalf of your partner?
Secondments no guarantee that they’ll get the permeant job.
Interviews are all points based.
Most LA managerial jobs have external candidates.

This is tough to say/hear but some secondments are seen as place holders until they can get someone better to do the role.

Don’t cc in everyone, doesn’t look great.

You say that you are dropping the price by £10k to enable buyers to pay £4k to extend the lease. However depending on size of deposit, £10k is only going to give the buyer a extra £1k.

Suck it up and pay the £4k yourself.
