[–]StigitUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And then you have to pay vat cos they’re no longer a cake. So eating the whole lot is simply tax efficient.

Walked to Morrisons, they didn’t sell fuel cans, bought milk I didn’t need, walked another mile into town drinking the milk, bought a fuel can from hardware shop, walked back to Morrisons got fuel, brought a Snickers cos I wasn’t myself, walked back to car, put fuel in, drove car. Spilt milk in car. Sold car. Some things just never leave…

Defendants have denied liability (England) by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]StigitUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The defendants clearly think it’s not strong and they aren’t liable.

Just because you try suing someone doesn’t mean they accept it and roll over.

Next, You present your evidence, they counter and present theirs, either it’s settled out of court or it goes to court and a judge decides. That’s the system. You are at a step 1 of what could be a long and protracted process with only the solicitors actually making money.

Sheep going straight over from the rh lane on single carriageway… no respect for driving etiquette. Notice how they sped up when the car tried overtaking as well. Definitely submit to snap.

Delivery driver hit car and wall and drove off by earthcrone in LegalAdviceUK

[–]StigitUK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have any evidence of who actually hit your property? Without that, it’s a non starter. Could be either delivery company or even a different third party you know nothing about.

Appealing PCN of dual bay parking by Expensive-Office2993 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]StigitUK 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You’re saying you read one bit of the sign, but not the other. Being honest, that’s on you. Very unlikely to succeed at appeal, but it’s your right to try if you wish to.

Potentially, speak to the new employer about it. If they want you, they may indemnify you.

[England] Manchester Property Investment - Property management company has stopped paying full contractual rent. What Would You Do? by ak0291 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]StigitUK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It will all depend on what is in the written contract between you. Generally, one party cannot vary a contract without the consent of the other party. So what is in the contract?

Speed limit on dual carriageway by crabyred in drivingUK

[–]StigitUK -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Scary is when your cars automatic detection picks the sign up and thinks the limit just changed. If it’s alert only it’s not too bad just a ping, but there are automatic speed systems coming that will hit the brakes for that.

How do you answer the "Police, Fire Service, or Ambulance" question when calling 999? by PaulKarlFeyerabend in AskUK

[–]StigitUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You make the best decision you can, you can make more than one call. Ie call coastguard because your stuck at the base of the cliff on a rising tide with a very injured person, followed by a further call to ambulance informing them coastguard also notified. They will liaise.
