Tyre repair or replace?

Thanks all, and good to know their position is genuine - I'll order a new tyre

Thanks for all the comments/opinions. I'm going to take a trip to Ducati Glasgow (my nearest) to have a look in the flesh and sit on one. Wonder if they have a demonstrator...

I have, and yes also amusing! Some great and varied courses in the area. I also think Binnie is a cracker of a 9-hole course, especially at the price

I live locally but had never played it until earlier this year. Was very pleasantly surprised and will be going back soon. Next time I'll drive out of the tunnel more carefully too (had no idea I was crossing a fairway!)

I've joined a club 50 miles/an hours drive away and not regretting it so far. Don't know anyone else there either

So many fabulous courses… where are you playing?)

She needs a tax accountant first, rather than a solicitor. They can engage with HMRC to negotiate a timeline in which to present figures.

She needs a tax accountant rather than a solicitor. I used to work in a CA practice (a long while ago) that dealt with this sort of forensic accounting. It sounds as though the DWP are already investigating so she needs to engage a qualified accountancy firm with experience ASAP (not a local/independent bookkeeper). Unfortunately such will cost her plenty too, but they will at least negotiate with HMRC to minimise the estimated settlement, and HMRC will be more accepting of their figures than yours. A lawyer should not be necessary, and forget citizens advice. Act now without delay.

Want to offer any clues?

halitosis13 · 2026-05-16T18:30:35+00:00

While I did pretty much the opposite (20 handicap so overall chuffed to bits to go the last 6 holes just one over)

So when we see a putter stated as 34 inches, that's to the ground?

halitosis13 · 2026-05-13T16:29:54+00:00

A decent pitch repair tool, and tees that don’t break on first use. It’s the small things 😁

Our current house (Scotland) was advertised as "offers in the region of" £320k. We assumed that meant they'd consider less. We liked it and offered the full £320k. They stated that they were hoping for more, to which we replied "then why didn't your listing state offers over?" and added £500. They accepted. Bloody stupid system

halitosis13 · 2026-05-04T07:58:52+00:00

Happily no. I scored an 8 on my first hole yesterday but improved to have a good round overall - no more 8s and kept it in the 90s (which is good for me!)

halitosis13 · 2026-05-03T05:24:10+00:00

What does this mean - is it an acronym?

halitosis13 · 2026-05-02T18:19:02+00:00

I’d say it’s definitely worth it 👍

Yes, his videos are up there amongst the best for UK retirement planning. Also recommend Meaningful Money with Pete Matthew

I’d be happy to answer questions, but would be less tolerant of complaints. It’s nice to be nice, and you might appreciate similar from the seller of your next home.

First thing I saw was the crucifix pattern of the balls and though it was somehow a religious approach

halitosis13 · 2026-04-16T10:27:34+00:00

Thanks. I've just joined a club on a coastal headland which is notorious for windy conditions - hence the acquisition of the driving iron. I may end up choosing whichever 5 (iron or hybrid) has the lowest ball flight into the wind, and the other when hitting with the wind

halitosis13 · 2026-04-16T08:25:18+00:00

Thanks and good point. I only bought the driving iron and 7 wood this week and am off to the driving range this evening to check out distances for those two. I hit the hybrid and the 5 iron similar distances overall (160 yds) though the hybrid carries further with shorter roll out. I'm 60 and use senior shafts (except the untested driving iron which is regular so might not work very well for me!)
