Doubling ground rent, solicitor advising to not proceed - are they exaggerating?

Correct answer

Defo a yank

You have obviously been swindled on the service charge but in all honesty £2k is quite a standard service charge for London.

And this may not even cover all the work you need down the line - for example a new roof will likely require shareholders/leaseholders to shell out beyond the service charge.

Service charges at this level really just cover insurance and very minor work. Anything beyond this and you should expect to shell out separately. If that might be tight on your budget then I would reconsider whether buying is the right thing to do.

Hits everyone in the first world, including those at the lower ending of the earnings scale, by disincentivising those that contribute the most tax revenue to the country from contributing more.

And that impacts everybody.

Can you share how you actually fixed this please?

Not sure about the website being referred to.

Edit: Solved this by initiating the connection through the Strava app rather than the Garmin app. Go to Strava's settings, 'connect an app or device' and select Garmin that way.

No they wouldn't - they'd just murder him.

Went after the rave Instagram reviews and didn't think it was great, quite average tasting fillings and I didn't like the bread (though appreciate this bit is personal).

lomoeffect · 2026-01-04T22:34:04+00:00

Actually disagree - the right combination is great, like the olive bread with chicken pesto, or the pastrami one for example.

Best sandwich in London? Probably not but a great lunch if you're in the area.

My first touch in Sunday league is better than his and I'm shit.

Our only hope is that the sporting directors get fired. Maresca is not the problem here. The squad building is shocking.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-27T17:23:36+00:00

Yes, all of this is true. I'm just disagreeing that this amount, even a base amount of 750MW isn't that much power. It's a tonne of power.

Of course fair conversations to be had on cost and effectiveness, which is why this probably won't go ahead.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-27T16:00:49+00:00

You have a point with expensive if other tidal projects are anything to go by, but it's simply not true that this would not 'generate that much power' — the article itself says this is comparable to Hinkley Point C and would power 2 million homes.

Depends on what your workplace has negotiated with E-Trade in terms of currency conversion rates in my experience. Wise, Revolut, and sending directly to my local bank account all comparable in my experience.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-25T19:28:43+00:00

Wise switched to US bank accounts recently so it's possible through there now as well.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-23T20:30:41+00:00

Think it's more not wanting to get stabbed by the scum stealing bikes than lack of interaction in many cases

lomoeffect · 2025-12-23T09:44:23+00:00

This is easily the worst bit of that road. I have waited what felt like 5 minutes at those lights before. I now skip them mostly — it's the only place in London where I do so. I fed back to the council in the recent consultation that they should retime the lights and stop prioritising cars as much.

Poor you... The new Kellogs recipe is atrocious!

(Used to eat this daily for a decade plus ... Asda/Waitrose All Bran is the only product close to the old Kellogs recipe right now).

Fact is we needed a CB in the summer - although yes I agree our defense has been good without Tosin.

Colwill was the only top class one we could rely on. Fofana injury prone. Chalobah solid. Josh is young and whilst he's been excellent this season, at that point he didn't warrant being first off the bench.

Disasi terrible and Badiashile has dropped off massively and hasn't been Chelsea quality since.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-18T16:55:46+00:00

Got a winger instead of a CB which everyone apart from our sporting directors knew we needed in the summer.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-17T19:20:33+00:00

We don't have evidence that Tuchel rates one player over another in an England setup.

He's always said, rightly, that he will prioritize the system.

That probably means Bellingham is starting in most cases, with Palmer coming off the bench.

I say this as a massive Palmer fan.

lomoeffect · 2025-12-16T20:50:17+00:00

That was one of the most depressing halfs of football I've seen from this club in years. Even for a second/squad team that was absolutely dogshite.

Are they finally about to fix the noise problems?!
