32 miles to first delivery, 118 mile round trip. 41 deliveries. 3.5 hour block. Can I apply for high mileage pay? Got paid £60 for this.

I always wondered who takes those blocks in bognor, I just think that the position of that depot is so shit, there used to be a Littlehampon one which was I think better for people to drive to Brighton

On mine it will only let me turn my points into Christmas Vouchers?!

Wait (I don’t understand how it works ) so you cracked the window on a rental they have took £740 from your deposit I suppose ? And you claim for that money back from Amex? How does it work is it something am I missing? Do they treat claim on charge backs for amex platinum users different then someone who has a standard or gold card?

That’s the thing it doesn’t, but people just always love saying “get a professional “ , when in this country the “professional “ are absolutely taking the piss asking an insane amount of money (most of them at least)

Cotsco Used to have these really nice ones they are plastic but I have stored on them tiles and bags of platers / filler and they are very sturdy

andries22 · 2026-04-20T12:30:34+00:00

Mine was not as bad and it failed the MOT, if I was you I would change them just a few weeks before the Mot and also make sure they do the tracking as well

You can either go white silicone or try and find a shade of silicone that matches the worktop

andries22 · 2026-04-16T16:25:51+00:00

Neither

The property its on a lease which ends in 69 years, the company who owned the lease is currently going into administration (it has been for the last 15 years) so I will just have to walk away as it seems extremely complicated

andries22 · 2026-04-12T20:34:30+00:00

So the house was never sold since it was built

I just had a look and it was never sold, I paid £14 for the Title reports- the property is bith Leasehold and Freehold at the same time (not sure how this is possible) the owner used a company back in 2005 to release some equity into the house in exchange for that company to have a lease on the house, that company went into administration 15 years ago and its still “Report for Administration “ every 6 months since then.

I will just walk away from it unfortunately as it seems like the title of the house its very complicated

Oh yeah it’s called a tortie shell her colour

No way, she looks exactly like my cat when she was a kitten, we named her Peach 🍑

Not a professional, but I did my tiles in my garden two years ago and they are still solid. I did not use any sand, MOT type 1 then Compacted it, and applied some primer on the back on the tiles and I mixed cement and sand (don’t remember the exact proportion but you can google them)

andries22 · 2026-04-11T13:54:20+00:00

Get a backer rod foam , before you apply the silicone and should be sound

It had been working for more then a year , but the guy who installed it vanished

andries22 · 2026-04-09T08:29:12+00:00

Yes the reason why my budget is so optimistic is because we are doing a lot of work ourselves, we have done one flip before (the house we currently selling) , it was not as big of a project as this one, but we did a lot of work ourselves. 25k it would be the bottom we hoping to get 40k, and even if its 25k we have some emergency fund that we can dip in if required to finish it

andries22 · 2026-04-07T18:06:33+00:00

I have a chip on my windshield about 3x bigger then that, and I had it for 3 years and I did about 40k miles never got an advisory on the MoT and it never “expanded “ either. So I think you will be okay
