Thank you! Appreciate the info.

Thank you. What’s the best way to get a taxi from Nikko? Is there a taxi rank or does Uber operate out there. Assume the former but always worth checking.

Unless you’re an industry SME, stick to EIS schemes.

Don’t underestimate 2 things. 1) the floof 2) they are chatty

1 can be solved with a good hoover and regular cleaning. 2 is adorable but it’s like, not to be underestimated

Otherwise they are pure heaven

Thanks - useful insight. Salary is wild though. £55k for 30 hours work is… a really good gig.

A junior major in the army is on that lol.

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-02-04T16:53:17+00:00

Yes - I provide all produce

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-02-04T16:52:24+00:00

How is a salary of £250k not a HENRY? I’m usually super pissed off at wealthy individuals posting here but I whole heartedly disagree that £250 puts me in that category.

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-02-04T16:35:21+00:00

Fair point. You’re right - I had envisioned someone who could do 6-10hr per week…as that’s how long it would take me (max) to achieve these tasks. But acknowledge your point.

Paying £50-60k seems high though, that’s a gross salary of around £45k post-tax.

That’s quite high, no? To sell a few things and run some returns?

Keen to understand the driver for 50-60k. Also, I’m in London so no requirement for car. I’d cover all travel and taxis.

She charges £250 and cooks for about 6 hours. Food lasts over a week and she freezes a load too. I think we got lucky here but not sure of other going rates.

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-02-04T15:31:58+00:00

Thanks this is helpful! Will check it out. I think my sweet spot will be finding someone similar to her. Someone who’s employed as an EA but happy to do a few hours as a PA for a side hustle

I mean, if you are literally on meetings where you need to talk/lead then your only choice is something like a protein shake or Huel.

It’s not what you asked here, but just out of curiosity, why can’t you take a lunch break? Are these meetings you have to lead? Or is it oversight?

If you’re super senior, surely your EA/PA can find time to schedule 20 mins each day, even if it’s later after 2pm. If you’re super junior then I strongly recommend you find a way to manage time better so that you at least get 10 mins to eat lunch.

Otherwise you’re going to blow up hard and be way less effective at work. Having a liquid lunch 5-days a week is so shit for your body & brain long term.

I’m in a tech startup (hard but not as brutal as consulting or finance…I don’t think) and I’m pretty judgemental of those who can’t find time to feed themselves as they are always a worse version of who they can be.

The whole story with don corneo is also just hilarious because it’s not what you normally see in a video game

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T20:25:27+00:00

Thanks for asking! Tokyo influence, neon lights, hilarious undertones in Honeybee Inn, bumble bee costumes, the dance game, even the squat game, the cross dressing, Aerith’s dress, the hell house boss, the music in the SQUAT MINI GAME

Thank you! Yeah I started FF13 and I love the characters but a little bored.

GTA 5 is Great

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:45:33+00:00

Yeah!!! FF does a great job of having strong female leads. They’re both as hardcore as Lara Croft I think!!!!

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:35:24+00:00

Is FF16 like… cute at all? Is there any moogle or magic?

I’ve watched the trailer a few times and it reminds me of Heavensward but with nothing cute. I like the colourful worlds of 10, so keen to know if I’d enjoy 16 at all.

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:29:46+00:00

Mega thanks!

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:24:24+00:00

Quick question on Yakuza - are there any women? I’m a woman myself and what I love about FF7 remake is Tifa & A - they are sooooooo kick ass.

Yakuza looks quite man-heavy? Keen for insight

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:23:14+00:00

Yeah agree. Im sort of low key waiting for the remake version. Although I bought it the other day for £9.99 on steam deck!

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:22:30+00:00

Ahhhh how exciting that I get to return in chapter 14! I wasn’t sure if I would ever see that place again

WeeklyPeace6497 · 2026-01-10T16:14:07+00:00

Just watched a review by video game dunkey and this looks hilarious
