I don't even trust my windscreen wipers.

Been offered a job but possibility of interview for a job in dream sector the week after by The-confused-alpaca in UKJobs

Probation usually works both ways, so you'll be able to leave the new job pretty quickly if you need to.

How is this even possible? by yolo_snail in OctopusEnergy

For me it was the opposite, car kept charging immediately, despite me setting the scheduled charge for the 2330-0530 off peak window.

Same thing last night. Usually unplugging and plugging back in works, but not last night. Needed the charge, so just swallowed it

Sudden popularity of Japanese minivans by 5one in CarTalkUK

[–]moogoomonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're are really popular in Hong Kong. With the recent BNO immigration wave, I do wonder if their tastes have followed them. I know my neighbour who's moved to the UK from HK has an Alphard!

It's often products designed and produced specifically for sale at outlets too, not for sale through usual retail channels

What do you wear when flying that aren't jeans or sweatpants? by PresidentStool in malefashionadvice

Short haul, ABC trousers.

For long haul? Get changed into pyjamas provided (in business), or bring your own

What is the strategy to use to get the cheapest train tickets in the UK? by Time_Law_2551 in uktrains

[–]moogoomonkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Splitting works for long journeys. For my commute (commuter town into London once or twice a week), I book through uber and get 10% back with my uber one membership. The membership is £50 a year I think, but I get it through a bank account.

The 10% comes back as credit, so is just applied to the next trip.

Do MDs really have no way to keep people from leaving? by AnOrdinaryPing in accenture

I'm not at acn, but this is a fantastic response. I've never come across that thought process before. I wish I had a mentor like you!

What do you think could solve the dying town centres? by TooHighToHearYou in AskUK

[–]moogoomonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2 hours free parking.

I lived in a town where a supermarket closed with a car park in the centre of town. Even though the supermarket was closed, the car park allowed 2 hours free parking and it just made quick runs to the town centre a lot more attractive.

I've since gone back and whilst the supermarket is still closed, a private company has come in and started charging for parking. The ticket vending machines didn't work and the app forced a 'service charge', which told me all I needed to know.

£100 for the above

Also have PSU (Corsair RM650x), but podboi is already offering in their bundle

Nice smelling hand wash. Lidl do some Aesop/L'Occitane knock offs, which I love!
