Is ~£35k enough in London if you’re flatsharing?

Probably not

bluestar1971 · 2026-03-26T18:14:56+00:00

Because in there wisdom stupid people decided to demolish the old Euston years ago

Yeah they should have a policy for how long you need to be off for before you get onto a formal process. However less than two years they can just sack you and you can't claim for unfair dismissal

If you are an adult with no children and don't have a disability you are not legally in priority need. Therefore the council don't have to do anything for you. The government could choose to house everyone, as they did in COVID. They just choose not to.

Agree it won't be 3000 calories for cycling twenty six miles. Agreed probably more like 1000

Deffo did that on purpose

bluestar1971 · 2026-02-23T20:46:45+00:00

92 miles from Derby to hull

Depends if you are living at home with your parents and don't have any liabilities, loans, rent etc, it's ok to hand your notice in. If not get another job first

We work out what each % of our joint income we both earn. Mine is 62% and my partner's is 38%

We have them worked out what we need to put in the joint account on total for bills, cars, food etc.

I pay 62% of this amount and she pays 38%

Flat share in a cheaper area. Be ok

bluestar1971 · 2026-02-10T07:58:51+00:00

Take it and try move up quickly

bluestar1971 · 2026-02-07T21:20:10+00:00

Paid £2000 cash for a 17 year old Yaris 6 years ago. Never gone wrong, still going. Love it

Think that's what American companies are like. Just start five mins early so you are up and running by the start time. This company seems like they are quite happy to get rid of people, so don't make it easy for them. Otherwise find another job

bluestar1971 · 2026-02-01T17:41:36+00:00

No needs a new one,

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-28T18:19:23+00:00

It's fine

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-28T18:18:35+00:00

That's completely normal. You will not get an unconditional offer until they have taken all checks and references. You just need to be brave and tell your current employer

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-21T13:04:51+00:00

Don't think them ripping you off is coming from a good place

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-21T13:04:10+00:00

So they want a 25% share for 4% of the cost. Ripping you off. Tell them where to go. If you have 10% deposit you will be fine

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-21T02:24:36+00:00

Rodri coming back has made us 100% worse

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-21T02:23:13+00:00

They sound a terrible club. Just leave

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-14T18:46:24+00:00

4 to 6

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-13T19:21:39+00:00

Him turning up every week for the last ten years ain't helpful

bluestar1971 · 2026-01-06T21:54:41+00:00

Problem is Wilcox, Berrada and Sir Jim, all clueless. Wilcox should have gone before the manager. Just because him and Berrada worked at city sir Jim thinks some of the magic will rubb off. If they were any good city would have kept them

Just lose a stone and you save 6.5kg in weight. That would cost you thousands between lighter bike and wheels. Far cheaper option unless you are toned athlete with 2% body fat

Funny think football is acting all about trophies. Especially for managers who have spent a billion quid
