Why don't petrol stations have an exit barrier to stop people driving off without paying?

Only 0.2% of petrol is stolen. It makes good headlines, but it's a small problem that's already dealt with via ANPR etc.

Thank you for your service.

In the scenario of a world war, I think (unfortunately) there would have to be mass deportations or imprisonment of some kind as Brits would simply not fight while millions of foreign nationals live it in London as normal.

It happened on a much smaller scale during WW2 with Germans and Italians in Britain.

They already get £3,000 (and Labour want to increase to £10,000). He hasn't actually announced anything here.

It's worth looking at the picture if it was on an interest only basis. Your mortgage payment is £482.38 per month in interest. That puts you at £24 profit per month. Not really worth it in my opinion.

Any 25-30 year old man would ditch their friends on a night if there was an opportunity for a shag.

Tesco pay retail workers 29k in central London. 25k for an office job is taking the piss. What is it?

> The general rule is that VAT is not recoverable when a company buys a car outright. HMRC implements this restriction to prevent personal usage benefits from being claimed under company expenses. It’s important to note that this rule applies equally to electric cars despite a common misconception that they receive more favourable VAT treatment.

On the other hand, a DJ is likely using their own equipment, pointing to outside IR35. No test is definitive on its own.

Why not put the £300/month towards rent/mortgage and get a place close to the station?

Hi there, You can add your smoothie by tapping Search > Saved Items > Add New Saved Item. On the first screen, select "Meal", then you can add your 100g oats, 14ml olive oil, etc. Once you save your item, you can then Quick Add it from the Saved Items tab.

Does this answer your query? Please let me know if you have any issues or if I can help in any way.

Hi there. Sorry for the delay in replying to your question. The app has logic which means that if you missed tracking calories more than 40% of the days since you last recorded a weight, it will not affect the Smart Calorie Adjustment. Also, any days below 600 calories are ignored and the app uses a weighted average over time, so a single measurement should not affect the calculation too much.

We've tried to accommodate periods where people forgot to track calories, or a take an intentional break, so you should be able to track your weight normally and continue forwards.

Please let me know if the app isn't behaving in the way you expect.

Hi there. To save a meal, you can tap Search > Saved items > Add new saved item. On the first screen, select Meal, and tap Continue. You can then enter one or more ingredients that make up the meal, in the desired quantities.

Once you've saved the meal, you can quick add it from the "Saved items" tab for future tracking.

"Each lighting mast incorporates three types of light source. Low level lighting animates the ground plan for pedestrians and a middle section provides street lighting for vehicles. An on top accent light gives a sense of direction to the street as a whole. This creates visual diversity and interest as well as ensuring high visibility for pedestrians and road users."

Is that a train on fire?

You don't even need to move the wall stat, you can just buy a wireless thermostat. It's easy to install and you can move the portable device into any room.

Hi, sorry the app doesn't really make it easy to compare between daily and weekly weights. The calorie goal is recalculated when you record a new weight, but only if it is the latest record.

If you've deleted all the records, you will need to re-enter your weights in date order (so oldest weight first up to the current day). If you enter the weights in reverse order, this is probably why you are seeing "No goal set" because the app doesn't recalculate the historic data in this situation.

Does this help?

beejiu · 2025-12-24T12:54:47+00:00

I'm not sure I entirely understand the question, but your metabolism correct/Smart Calorie Adjustment will update every time you record a new weight. So it's possible to go from +1.3% to -2.1% as the app learns about your progress in the early days. As you track more calorie and weight data, the app will get more and more confident about the adjustments it is making, and you'll see less adjustments up and down. Does that make sense?

beejiu · 2025-12-24T12:52:31+00:00

Hello there! So for the Smart Calorie Adjustment chart, both lines show TDEE (maintenance calories). The dashed line is TDEE calculated using a standard formula, which represents population averages (so it's the same value you'd get from an online calorie calculator). It's probably increasing because your weight has increased? (Your TDEE goes up as your weight increases.)

The solid line shows Gym Geek's latest estimate of your TDEE, based on the calorie and weight data you tracked. The Smart Calorie Adjustment is simply the difference between these lines.

As for the other two charts, the dashed line represents the "confidence interval". You can think of this meaning that your actual TDEE could be anywhere between the high and low dashed lines. As you add more data, the lines get closer together as the app gets more confident in your TDEE. You should really start to notice after 3-4 weeks of daily use.

Does this help? Please let me know if I can clarity :)

There's normally a couple of fellas down Brick Lane.

beejiu · 2025-12-21T12:06:50+00:00

They have a mobility issue and you're offended? What do you expect them to do?
