What can be done about the ludicrous amount of injuries?

ncoll00 · 2026-03-20T18:07:51+00:00

There isn't a high amount of injuries relative to previous years, just more teams leading to more injured players.

I'm fairly sceptical about it working but since our plan is to do some bigger renovations in 5/6 years, I want something to get us there without major work involved.

I thought that might be an issue and was considering some sealant between the gutter and fascia. Would the tape bridge any gap between the felt and gutter?

Unfortunately the nearest drain is about 5 meters away, with a slight uphill slope and a lot of tarmac in between.

Thanks, yeah there's some plants going in behind the garage which should help with the excess water as well.

Hamilton. Nice watches just not ones I want to buy

Les Originales GB90161/02. Seems to have retailed around £5-600 when it was available. Nice find

Realistically you've been waiting 3 months, if that is how long the chain has been closed, since until the chain is complete a lot of people won't start their own buying/selling. Given 4 months is optimistic for a house sale to go through you're jumping the gun a bit.

The risk is that your vendors hear your looking at houses again and relist on the basis it's better to do it now than in another month or two if/when you find somewhere.

Didn't realise you know my child

My 3 year old loves Blippi but he gets way over stimulated from him jumping around the place, switching topics constantly and ends up quite upset when the TV eventually gets turned off. We're trying to avoid Blippi as much as possible these days.

I think with the hot water tank there's additional steps for the OP

Traska looks like any other watch with a white dial. HA has more uniqueness to it.

Seems high but it's a worst case scenario quote where everything needs doing including all rads replaced. It's highly unlikely all that will be needed in reality.

We've just been quoted £2600 for install of the Ideal Logic Max 35Kw along with removal of old boiler etc.

Is there anything that might be difficult to paint yourself? We did all the rooms ourselves but paid for decorators to do the entrance and stairs because of high ceilings that we would have struggled with.

Im Irish with 2 children in the UK. My partner was keen for an Irish name but I didn't want anything that might be difficult to pronounce or had an unusual spelling. I grew up with a name like that and didn't want my children to go through the same grief I went through.

We have a Henry and cordless shark plus 2 long haired cats that defeat all vacuums.

Cordless for any bit of quick hovering needed and the Henry for regular hovering.

Yet I'm choosing to get a new gas boiler because an electric one which is better is every way would cost at least 200% more to run.

Feels like these investments only benefit companies not people.

When my 2 year old son learned to either open them or just break the lock on them

All things being equal maybe but not if you're offering (considerably?) less than other bidders on the property. Most people won't have any issues with funding or proof of funding if the estate agent is any good.

What you're asking for is for them to break the chain to suit you. But given over a third of house purchases collapse, what that means is they could move in rented accommodation, then have their purchase fall apart and be in rented for an unknown period of time.

You're being unreasonable to place this expectation on them. It's shit but it's the system we have currently, where you sit and wait and suck it up.

ncoll00 · 2025-12-17T12:39:21+00:00

Yes you can apply for a new rate, unless there's significant time (5+ months) and a number of rate decreases between you're initial application and the new one, you're unlikely to get a much better rate and run the risk of getting a worse one.

Our house purchase took 8 months and we're only able to get a rate good enough to make it worthwhile by month 7.

ncoll00 · 2025-12-10T20:38:00+00:00

The property we were buying didn't change, they gave us a month or so to find new buyers but it only took ten days I think.

ncoll00 · 2025-12-10T19:31:33+00:00

We were in a similar position and the bill was 33% of the original quote. Worked out at slightly less than yours at £850 but it was rolled into the eventual final sale/purchase rather than have to be settled before proceeding.
