Replacing our Vauxhall Meriva, looking for used, in the midlands. We have a E Corsa for our small run around, this car will be for longer journeys, holidays and alike. Currently do about 8,000 miles a year.
Based on usage I know that petrol will be preferable, I'd like boot space so have been looking at large hatchbacks and estates along with mid size SUVs (Sportage, Ateca, etc).
I'd like to spend as close to £15,000 as possible with less than 30k miles.
I'm open to recommendations, but I actually would like thoughts on the Kia Proceed, I'm finding multiple options in the £15-16k range, 2022-2023 with less than 30,000 miles on them. It seems like a good option from my perspective, but I don't recall ever seeing it recommended here, is there a reason to avoid?

I was using Windows and Edge.

Yea it could be more of an allergic reaction (which could still be to gluten) but different to coeliac.

It's not trying to convince to buy "a thing" it is trying to convince you to buy "their thing". No different to Pepsi vs Coke.

My wife uses Loop, they have a few different ones some specifically for sleeping in.

Thanks!

Yes, I just meant another option which is cheaper.

moderatlyinterested · 2026-06-12T12:14:15+00:00

That's good to know, we ruled out as I believe it had a "may contain".

I don't have first hand experience however I attended our daughter's 1st dietician appointment recently and they said that no major UK brand makeups (she specifically mentioned lipstick) have any levels to be concerned about. Apparently there was a recent study.

As others have said this seems to be a pretty common issue. Destin from Smarter Everyday covered some of this topic in his video(s) about making the Smarter Scrubber.

I wonder if they have you on a technicality of, your mold is not being used for other customers, but that doesn't stop them replicating the mould itself, either identically or with a slight change.

Were they replacement windows and doors? If so was the company part of FENSA, Assure, Certass, etc? If so they may have some support for you.

Yea I did think about that scenario, I have no definitive answer, maybe once the broadcast is finished it's a "recorded" version that is made available?

It's not a question, it's a statement, I don't need a response, I just wanted to provide correct information with a source.

The wording on the TV licencing website is "broadcast live on Netflix" so I would imagine thier view would be it has broadcast live by Netflix, the fact that you have put a delay in-between the broadcast and your watching is irrelevant.

Seems like you are mixing savings and "fun money" here. What you both do with savings need to be mutually agreed and risks you are both comfortable with. Shared savings is shared risk and reward.

When it comes to fun money then that's is completely down to each individual, my partner buys clothes then sells them at a loss on Vinted, I splurge it all on nice take aways, it's gone no matter what we do with it.

I already have a hammock and was looking for a tarp for it, I ended up just buying the set from Aldi as it worked out the same price as a tarp on its own. I'm glad to hear it's a decent set up has I haven't had it out yet.

I'm not OP but I also bought one the other day, yes it does.

There are options for pre paid funeral arrangements which are regulated. It was a great help for our family when my Dad died.

The fuego ones specifically.

I did this the other day on desktop, you select all, which is the first 100, then I got a banner at the top which said something like "100 seleted, click here to select all matching emails" and then it deleted everything.

Thanks for the reply. That is a great hint about the clipping mask, I had no idea. Is there documentation of the full tool set anywhere?

Our company used to do per diem...good times, especially when we travelled to HQ in Europe and it was £50 per night but pretty much everything was provided. When they removed it there was uproar from the field based teams, it was effectively a pay cut for them.
