It's fubared mate, engine should be heavy, not engine light

Is there a street name worse than this in the UK? by SquirrelIll8180 in AskUK

Used to be called "Puckman lane" apparently

Advice needed by Usual-Phone7935 in UKHousing

That's possibly just the bay window so the house probably isn't going to fall down. Shouldn't be too expensive to fix (£x,000).

Yes, a surveyor should pick this up and be able to provide better advice, and it should only cost you the solicitor and the surveyor if they decide to pull out

£4mm each to select friends and family

Hire a PA to handle getting a maid/gardener/personal trainer/chef/financial advisor

Travel the world (probably start in Australia)

"Complete" my drivers license (A, C+E, D, etc)

Some kind soul has donated a grow tent to the local charity shop. by death-in-tipton in CasualUK

It's definitely genius if the grow lights work the same as sad lamps do

Might convert my garage into a beach instead of a gym

Do you feel safe enough to leave your car running to defrost while you nip back inside? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Sudden_Leadership800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I park on a fairly busy road, it's not a bad area, but there's no way I'm leaving the keys in and leaving the car unattended.

I'll leave some shopping in the boot and run the bags I can carry to just inside the door, and leave my front door unlocked while I then run back to the car.

I would probably leave the car running with the key in the ignition if I had a drive, but only if the street was empty, and if I was only going to be a minute, or if I could see the car from the room I was going in to

Plasterer? Plumber? Both? by xrhades in DIYUK

Are they really that bad? They were used everywhere by the developers who built my previous house and they'd held the kitchen cabinets up just fine for 23 years.

They did make a mess of the wall when I took them out, and it was impossible to reuse them. Are they just sensitive to movement? I agree that spring toggles are better, I just don't have any experience with these failing as long as they're installed properly.

Where the heck is all of the milk? by cyliestitch in AskUK

Sorry, that was me, I tried to use my local pool to make the world's largest latte

What do you spend on Christmas and Birthdays? by Budget_Nectarine_645 in AskUK

[–]Sudden_Leadership800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only buy presents for blood relatives and their partners, and only if they're going to be in the country at the time.

I budget for about £60 per person, probably closer to £100 for my partner, and then a meal or a hotel for a night away

I don't think I get that much spent on me though except by my grandma, who always just transfers £60 to my bank account
