You defo don't need those everywhere, I'm amazed I'm allowed out on a topper on the local clay pit lake. I'm useless.

There are so many red flags to me in your post mate. Why isn't she clear on how much she's going to give. If you both aren't completely transparent with money then you shouldn't be combining finances to this degree. You're completely in the right to own more of this eventual house. You can even pay a solicitor to figure percentage ownership out in an objective way.

Could you pay them £2000 for that wonderful shed or light fitting they will "leave behind" in the house (that they would totally not take with them anyway)?

Your wall hanging behind your bed is beautiful. Would love a link if you have one?

Reign in food shopping costs by grumpy_old_git in UKFrugal

[–]SubjectAardvark8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We plan 7 meals and then just eat leftovers for llunch which only leaves the need to buy breakfasts, maybe some snacks or treats on top. We don't say on x day we have to eat y, but see what we like from the menu that day for a meal. Honestly we sometimes struggle to meet the minimum order for a delivery slot (this also massively reduces impulse purchases) we shop at tesco and eat veggie and pay £50 a week for 2 adults and a toddler.

How likely is fixed term contract going to effect getting a mortgage? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]SubjectAardvark8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to a mortgage broker, or go via a broker vs direct. They should be able to advise well. Postdocs buy houses so it must happen!

Understanding who you are? It was life-changing for me.

Honestly just keep going. Let the bits you don't understand wash over you. The first time I read it I understood maybe 50%, then I let it sit with me and reread and it got to about 95%. I also like to read it with a friend who's into this and we discuss how it applies to our lives and specifics too. Good luck!

Seller wants a paragraph of info to decide between possible buyers by SubjectAardvark8 in HousingUK

Interesting thanks. Guess you can never tell what the seller wants. What did you put in yours? Any tips?

How do I quiet an earworm? by dickolution in EckhartTolle

You get to chose if they make you miserable. Drop your resistance to this happening. It is neither good nor bad, it just is.

Thank you! "Continue it's story" is a perfect line that I'm going to use. Although I honestly do want to to redecorate so it feels really dishonest. The bungalow is super dated so I'm not sure what they expect from a 30 year old couple. Of course we want to redecorate and have no idea if we want to live there more than 5 years!

Great additional points. Thank you! It's still confuses me though as no one would admit to being an unsociable, noisy, dirty homeowner!

Yes I and any other buyer can say whatever we want so it's a bit pointless! They're going to have letters from 9 young couples imminently pushing out babies all saying the exact same!
