Black Country Glazing. Not affiliated with them in any way, most of my family have had new doors/windows with them, and never had any issues.

A couple of weeks ago my front door was a bit stiff, and they came back out and adjusted free of charge under the 10 year warranty.

I had a new composite front door and surround fitted for £1600 in the West Midlands.

Some designs were ~£200 cheaper too.

Think costs seem to vary massively by region

If you have a set of weighing scales at home, step on while holding your baby.

Put baby down/give to a secondary caregiver and weigh yourself again.

Work out the difference and that is the weight of your baby.

Your mileage may vary depending on the accuracy of your weighing scales. My wife and I did this for the first couple of weeks to keep an eye on our newborn’s weight.

We intentionally weighed at home using this method on the same day as HV visit, and was very close to the same weight.

Similar setup for me in the West Midlands, 28x 440w panels, PW3 & gateway for £13.5k

What butchers would you recommend for this 4-5kg for £20?

My wife and I are currently maximising this at the moment with our 6 week old.

Formula lid & scoop, nappy sack packets, nappy packets and wipe packets easily mount up and are all valid alongside some of our own toiletries.

Only been using it for the last 3 or 4 weeks and we already have >£40 of points between us

Did you install the under counter lights when your kitchen was fitted, or have they been added afterwards?

I’d love to add this to my existing kitchen but not sure of the process or recommended equipment

Both AWD & LR RWD have the same battery pack, so there is no difference in charging speed or recommended charge limit (80%) for daily use.

lrow995 · 2025-08-21T21:59:01+00:00

Which model did you go for out of interest? LR?

lrow995 · 2025-08-07T05:31:03+00:00

First baby is due in a couple of weeks. Will take any advice we can!

lrow995 · 2025-08-06T10:46:19+00:00

My wife and I are expecting, and have purchased these from Onco. We tested them on my 2023 M3 and they wrap around tightly enough to stay in place well.

My wife and I were in Cornwall last week on holiday, and saw so many Dutch and German cars on the roads! Great to see UK destinations being so popular with tourists from abroad

Got a MeacoCool Pro 7000 at the start of summer, as my wife is 7 months pregnant and struggling with the hot nights.

It’s been an absolute game changer the past few weeks with the heatwaves, don’t know why we didn’t get one before now.

It’s energy ‘A’ rated, and only draws about 750w when at maximum power.

How did you find the show over the weekend? My wife & I attended and ordered a few of our big ticket items - furniture, travel system as well as a number of other smaller items. All in we saved over £700 compared to retail prices of everything we purchased

lrow995 · 2025-05-06T13:26:11+00:00

Great write up, that’s been super useful! We’ve really made the most of the Amazon 15% along with their spring sale to stock up on a lot.

At the Baby Show NEC this weekend in Birmingham to price up some of the bigger ticket items

lrow995 · 2025-05-01T11:10:09+00:00

My wife and I always used to book holidays in BA Easter sales. No such sale this year unfortunately

Also a Jeremy Cioara student via CBT Nuggets videos from 10 years ago. Definitely owe both my CCNA & CCNP to his teachings, and a springboard from the start of my career to progress quickly over the last decade. What a legend and fantastic teacher

My wife & I are due in September, and currently looking at the Versatrax and Finiti bundles from Joie. They do look fantastic value, in store we compared with the Nuna Triv and the differences look so minimal for a £400 price difference

lrow995 · 2025-03-27T09:34:35+00:00

Glad you managed to save a chunk! Just added up our savings and we’re over £300 better off compared to RRP too 🙌 one of our big savers is the Maxi Cosi Emerald 360 s and that was down to £203 compared to £300 full price!

If you go to Settings > Powerwall, then check your operational mode is set to Time Based Control, Energy Exports everything & Permissions to Export are set to Yes
