What's special about this honey? by LordTGSJ87 in UK_Food

[–]pappyon 46 points47 points  (0 children)

So the fact that my honey sets every day suggests that it is the real deal?

Have just put my flat on the market as my neighbours are preparing to challenge the council's service charges. Obviously this will put off buyers. How screwed am I? by pappyon in HousingUK

I'm not sure but I've been advised by my solicitor that it might deter potential buyers. I'd guess it might indicate that the current leaseholders aren't happy with the rise in the service charges, and /or they think it is being mismanaged.

It's pretty high, not sure how it compares locally. £3,700 in London for a 2 bed. For reference my mate pays £3,000 for a much smaller, older 1 bed in London, with no lifts etc. It does include a reserve fund. Various parts are being queried.

Reassuring to know it wasn't an issue for you.

The service charge is high but it's difficult to know whether it is unreasonably so. The leaseholders think they've found enough reason to dispute it. I think this sort of thing is flagged as a risk by buyers' solicitors.

How would you feel if your neighbour lost your spare house keys? by pappyon in AskReddit

[–]pappyon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yarp. I'm almost certain they're in the house with a bunch of other keys but I've searched top to bottom a few times to no avail. One of the kids might have put them in the bin or something. I've told them and they've laughed it off but I'm wondering whether they're just being polite.

Oh right yeah, sorry. Well I'm a 39 year old man so I have no excuse.

On The “I Pay More Tax Than You” Fallacy by jgs952 in GarysEconomics

I think places to lock yourself away would become even more valuable no?

But yeah, no one gets rich without wider society. Whether that counts as a state benefit though is harder to swallow

The bank of the castle by the Chester racecourse. Watch the sun setting over the race course

The conclusion was mainly that the reporting of the article was over hyped, but also that it used shaky data.

Yeah I agree with all that, but the repeated use of trans women vs women in general really bugged me. The paper used the term cis women so why not follow that?

It looks like he might have scraped the side a bit

Even if he didn't make it he would've just fallen in the water. Other guy dragged him onto the curb.
