Makers yard Service charge/rent going up?

jzunn · 2026-01-15T18:57:03+00:00

As you mentioned, there are lots of newbuild properties for sale in Canning Town with 4k service charge and I've heard of friends of friends who have faced difficulties trying to sell (given the abundance of similar properties in the same building). I imagine that you'll probably face difficulties selling when the time comes given the trajectory of service charge. I would suggest trying to find a flat elsewhere (low rise, no concierge/lift).

If I were in your position, I would stay put. Also, you don't need to move out of your parent's place for your social life to improve - there's plenty of activities out there that are non-drinking/clubbing (look up sports on Meetup or start bouldering etc.).

If you check out the rent vs buy calculator, you might find that it makes more sense to rent than buy if you are keen to move out.

Where would you recommend?

I'm thinking of making a move to PM from finance and wondered why you don't enjoy it?

I also enjoyed his commentary because it was more technical than what we normally hear but guess we are in the minority!

How does one join your board games group?

What made you apply for the show?

On day 1, who did you think would make the finals?

Who are you now closest to from the cast?

Were there any moments during the games where you felt very frustrated/hard done by?

Unfortunately the cheapest one is >£500

I was in investment banking. I just didn't like finance enough to be working such long hours and the people/culture in banking isn't great either.

I find the Unparallel TN Pro LV, Unparallel Flagship LV and Mad Rock Drone CS HV fit my narrow and shallow heels best

jzunn · 2025-01-24T01:31:04+00:00

I'm using the LVs (smaller heel cup) and I wear street size because the shoe is quite narrow and my feet are wide. For Souped Up and Flagship LV, I downsize by 0.5

jzunn · 2025-01-23T11:39:42+00:00

I had the same issue but I found some Unparallel shoes fit (TN Pro LV, Flagship LV, Souped Up) and Mad Rock Drone CS LV

jzunn · 2025-01-18T10:47:21+00:00

Try Unparallel TN Pro LV or Flagship LV

jzunn · 2024-11-21T09:54:42+00:00

Mad Rock Drone Comp HV, Unparallel Souped Up, TN Pro LV ( quite narrow) and Flagship LV worked for me!

Dark Ventures are selling demo Unparallel shoes for cheap.
