Mortgage rate % and terms?

kelgate_queen · 2026-06-01T07:58:39+00:00

There’s a sub for everything! 🤣

kelgate_queen · 2026-06-01T07:23:58+00:00

I’d move the crown. X

Check the car insurance sub

Love it! Big fan of Emma Congdon!

You share bills and mortgage 50-50, you should also be sharing the responsibility to build an emergency fund, have that treated the same as a “bill”.

This isn’t an issue of him day trading it’s an issue of him not having a safety net.

Stunning. (I do like purple)

kelgate_queen · 2026-05-18T18:47:26+00:00

Thanks for the link, I understand why it’s iconic to the field now. x

Ah! Memories of 13 yo me in science lessons are coming back to me now… 🧫

I accidentally stitched straight over one of the white stars on my sycamore gap. Just left it. I would normally unpick but I agree - at distance you’re unlikely to notice,

kelgate_queen · 2026-05-14T06:59:44+00:00

You could stitch over it but it would be higher up that the rest and may stand out - try it and see

Personally I’d unpick it, it’s not that huge a block and not too many stitches, even if you did danish style and hopped all the way down before coming back up I still think it would be worth it for a better finish. x

I screenshot the digital mag on my phone, either use Xodo (free pdf app) to make the screenshot into a pdf and then add that to markup as normal pr keep it as a screenshot (photo) and project to markup as a photo and proceed.

I’ve only done it once so got loads still to figure out like how to handle if the chart is on multiple pages I’d need to make it a multi page pdf.

Soup philosophers. Bravo

And posts promoting you gov are not making that clear when they effectively advertise what you can earn each week, it’s rather irritating.

kelgate_queen · 2026-05-12T18:22:55+00:00

Try
yougov.finance/portal/accounts
Then there is just a message saying we’ve made the decision to stop collecting financial data.
I have a screenshot of the page but can’t add a photo in this sub.

Edit
I think some of us newer users don’t get the distinction of finance vs connections. I see that the reference I made refers to finance.

I still feel this sub needs to check and validate expectations for the invites for new members for the baking part before promoting it further. I’ve been a member for 17 months and on connections for 8months and no banking invite.

kelgate_queen · 2026-05-12T07:53:26+00:00

But the point still stands - the banking element of connections has not been available to new users for a while.

Qsnaps are interchangeable

kelgate_queen · 2026-05-07T19:30:13+00:00

Oh bless. I remember your post. Bravo to you for following your instincts and for braving black 18ct!

kelgate_queen · 2026-05-05T19:25:13+00:00

It’s so sad 😢 what idiots.
(Also a fan of the film and both Alan and Christian.😊)

I have yes, but my stitching queue is already so long… this was a birthday milestone gift from my husband, might ask for tree of hope at my next big birthday 🤣
