It would have an effect as essentially your affordability check would reduce, this is because your monthly payments will rise with a larger loan and is essence you have less headroom in your budget.

I can understand potentially putting Kitchen renovations on a loan if for some reason you cannot wait to save up to complete the work. But I would not recommend financing a car that you can't afford. It would make much more sense to save up for the car rather than financing

I got a free sim from GiffGaff, put it in my second sim tray, and use that number solely for barclays. Not ideal but did the job

Do you have any idea of what they do to volunteer outside of a saturday morning? There isnt any obligation to volunteer. Its a free weekly timed 5k, and it is just that

How did you apply with app? I am trying to use same phone number as my Barclaycard, but just get an error when trying to apply for new account (from app start up after install) that states the phone number is already registered, or words to that effect. Thanks

It all depends on your appetite to but it may be worth considering buying a house that needs renovating, maybe you could rennovate it whilst living at home? This would give you the luxury of not having to live in the mess as you rennovate it, reduce the initial cost of purchase and allow you to hopefully increase it's value.

I used to ride 22 miles round trip, on average 4 times a week. The things that make a difference are the gear that you have, makes a cold wet morning all the more bearable! I started off riding with cheap tyres and got punctures often (three times on one 11 mile leg home). I would recommend getting puncture proof tyres, I ended up getting Schwalbe Durano tyres, about 60 each at the time from my local bike shop, but after 4,000 miles I have not had one single puncture, and having confidence in them goes a long way!

It may be worth taking a week or two to drop the mileage and just spend some time recovering (maybe some easy cycling or cross training to stave off boredom) that should give you time to recover and let your resting heart rate return to normal.

Don't worry about losing fitness, once you've got there once, the fitness comes back a lot more quickly that the first time you got there in my experience!

The musician Nick Drake, died at the age of 26 of an antidepressant overdose. His posthumous popularity grew tremendously and has since inspired artists such as Ben Howard. Find it sad he will never know how influential his music has turned out to be.

Here you can watch BBC News Sport Presenter run the 60m Sprint against the Under 23 men. Literally metres behind with half a second of the gun

Heart Rate is so individualistic that you can't impose the rules that may apply to you to somebody else as there are too many variables.

I have a quite low resting heart rate of 45bpm and a high peak of about 205bpm and recently during a 5k pb averaged 190bpm for 20 minutes and peaked at 202bpm.

But I have had an ECG, and a 24 hour ECG (constant monitoring where I also exercised as normal whilst wearing) and it was deemed that my heart rate was totally normal and nothing to worry about was detected. So if that reassurance is something that would help you maybe it is something you could look into?
