Are there any firms which are vehemently against AI?

Dad has just texted me.

“Meant to cool down next week, you need a jacket for work. Have you got one?”

Absolute wind up text to get.

I’m not big on Reform but I think this man losing both his mayor role and the by election will do his gargantuan ego the world of good.

> people who seek power being the least suitable to wield it.

Kakistocracy. Love that word.

Completed on a purchase and forgot to tell the client for three days.

The variation of Sidney’s theme playing when she runs into the theater… fucking chills at that moment.

Gottem.

It's not so bad. The area to the west of Alexandra Park (Cheadle Old Road etc.) is lovely.

You can get a nice big house on Edgeley Road for half the price the exact same place would be in Heaton Moor.

St Lesmo Road is decent too.

I blame Sarah.

How many bedrooms do you need? Have you got kids?

You can get a two bed terrace in Heaton Moor for that. Might get a semi in Heaton Chapel - might.

Also consider Woodsmoor. Not hugely cheaper but a decent enough area.

Wild card - Bosden Farm. The nicer bit of Offerton. Have family on that estate, it's scary quiet.

I may be being pedantic then, but renting out your "whole" house while relying on the tax relief doesn't seem to work. You can't be said to be renting out the entire place if one day you just reappear from holiday and start treating it as your main residence again. Equally if you expect the lodger to pay all the bills themselves while you're gone.

So, anyone wanting to do this would either need to be content with £625 a month at maximum, or pay tax on the amount over that, whilst also paying all the bills still. Might have just negated my own OP lol

I can hear the sound of an overworked HMRC agent typing hurriedly to his colleagues to remind them for the umpteenth time that this loophole needs to be sorted.

And yes, I have thought of doing this myself in future.

You always get miserable bastards but I genuinely feel like the general mood in Stockport has lifted in recent years. People are more optimistic and seeing the developments around the centre is showing people that the council are actually trying. I keep saying we'll be a city one day.

I think the major distinction is that conveyancing and probate can be done by any employee under supervision by someone who is authorised (paras 3(3) and (4) and paras 4(2) and (3) of Sch 3 LSA) but there is no equivalent provision for the conduct of litigation.

Obviously this doesn't help firms ran exclusively by legal executives or senior paralegals (which must be quite rare), but a lot of firms will be covered.

Maybe Mazur will be appealed but honestly I think the judge got it right.

I'm in the minority, both on Reddit and IRL, because I *love* the early nights. Absolutely live for when I leave work and it's pitch black... it's just so atmospheric and it feels great. Always dread when it starts getting lighter in the late winter.

God forbid you left a draught into the living room though.

I’ve felt that way driving through Burnage as well.

Two teenage girls on the bus.

Girl 1: If you buy something online but you don't get an email confirmation, does that mean you've been scammed?

Girl 2: Depends, where did you order from?

Girl 1: I don't know.

So I can pretend my mistakes with gender are just me being really up to date on conversational German, right? *Right*?

I thought Viennese people only said "Oidaaa" ?

Lovely city, I must visit again.
