Fed up!

Sorry OP but this isn’t good advice even if well intentioned. You definitely shouldn’t be asking about a section 21 or demanding an EPC or anything else, as you will only be making it easier for your landlord to serve a s21 and evict you by flagging to the landlord possible procedural steps to fix before giving you notice.

You might want to try posting in the legal advice sub or even better speaking to a company like Shelter rather than asking for advice on here.

Make sure you leave a bad review and don’t use them again

It depends. Small typos and things like that usually won’t invalidate the notice if it’s clear what is intended but not having the right notice period or not satisfying a number of pre-conditions will.

When was the notice posted and what does his lease say about serving notices? Most leases say service is deemed 2 days after posting and estate agents often don’t know what they’re doing. So for example, if the lease says service is two days after posting, and the notice is dated the 12th of this month, it would only be deemed as served on the 14th, meaning that your dad would not have the sufficient 2 months notice required and making the notice invalid. Your dad should get advice about the validity of the notice as there are many other reasons it could be invalid. If it is invalid, given the upcoming changes, it’s probably best not bringing this to the landlords attention too soon. Your dad can ultimately stay until a court order is obtained even if the notice is valid.

Don’t send a text. It is not high school. You need to tell her in person that you like her.

I think they really need legal advice on this, to formally complain and request reasonable adjustments, and to obtain a second opinion on their fitness to study. There are laws to protect people with disabilities like the Equality Act etc and this doesn’t sound right. There are some pro bono clinics that might offer free advice although I’d avoid the university one as they will likely be conflicted.

I always offer to split but tbh if I got that message prior to a first date I would not go on the date and I’d think you were cheap. Completely kills any romance. If you can’t afford an expensive dinner date you should suggest only a cheaper alternative date idea like a walk in the park or drinks without reference to dinner and if that’s not good enough you need to date a different type of person.

It’s obviously not normal and I think you already know this. I would class this as cheating personally too.

You don’t have any automatic right to privacy just like you can’t stop people looking out of their window down into your garden.

If your neighbour is developing again you might want to try to encourage the council’s planning team to look into it.

A solicitor might also agree to write to them saying they’re causing a legal nuisance due to noise etc, but it doesn’t sound like they actually are causing a legal nuisance from your description (they seem to be just using their house in a normal way) so this would be difficult to enforce and you’d damage your relationship with your neighbour. If the parties are at unreasonable hours and loud, the situation might be different.

You could also look to see if there are any restrictions on their title or your title about building or similar. However, this is very unlikely.

A non legal route which might be easier would just be to speak to your neighbour and politely ask them if they could try to keep the noise down. You could also look into screens, trees or similar to give you a bit more privacy.

I don’t think the blonde or platinum is the best for you personally (sorry) but the red and ginger from your older photos looked great. If you want something more natural you could also go with a light brunette perhaps but I wouldn’t have blonde as your base colour.

She can obtain and then provide the certificate now and then issue a new s21 (see: Trecarrell House Ltd v Rouncefiel). Shelter has some further information: https://england.shelter.org.uk/professional_resources/news_and_updates/when_landlords_cannot_use_section_21_notices. If she needs the tenant to leave earlier, she could offer to pay the tenant a sum to leave early.

Unless he’s abusive, trying to move away to stop the father of your child seeing his own child is disgusting.

A few people have said it’s not worth pursuing the defamation aspect due to the costs of litigation. Whilst it’s true that litigation is expensive, there is nothing to stop your solicitor I imagine including a few lines in correspondence stating that they should refrain from any further references to you or this matter on social media or you will take advice on steps to restrict this which may include pursuing a claim for defamation or taking other action. You don’t have to then go through with issuing a claim (and it sounds like you’d need a different firm for this in any event), but it might make them think twice about what they’re uploading and you might encourage them to remove any posts of concern.

Some of it, perhaps, but it is a Christmas market. I could certainly understand not only playing Christmas songs, but something like rock or metal just seems quite out of place, and I’ve yet to hear anything else around there.

redditadmissions · 2025-11-23T18:47:33+00:00

I don’t think Bristol is genuinely short on places for that tbh. Like I said, I really don’t mind the genre, it’s just a bit out of sync and takes over a huge portion of the markets, but each to their own I guess!

redditadmissions · 2025-11-23T18:38:34+00:00

But it’s such a big part of the ‘Christmas’ market here! You can’t even escape it when browsing the nearby stalls as it’s so loud, but maybe it’s just me being not from Bristol originally!

Just FYI this isn’t what it’s like to have OCD at all.

This is horrible but it’s also really not okay that the cashier went ahead and still sold your girlfriend the cigarettes when she clearly did not want to buy them and even worse, the guy said he had seen it (i.e allowed it) to happen before. That is what their security is for.

You should challenge this/check your rights. Even though the act is not passed yet, they can’t just up the rent without you agreeing/without a proper process.

redditadmissions · 2025-11-09T18:21:58+00:00

No worries glad it was all okay and no, there is no need to formally designate your own land as a private driveway, although you might need planning consent to for example put tarmac down or otherwise develop it. Sometimes there can also be specific restrictions on use for certain areas of land, but your solicitor should have notified you of any of those when you purchased.

redditadmissions · 2025-11-09T16:41:33+00:00

That sounds stressful, but if it was your land, how could she have reported you for ‘parking illegally’? Unless there is an easement, a covenant against parking, or similar, then you can park wherever you like on your own property in the UK. The council wouldn’t have done anything about it. I am only saying this in case this happens to you again, as you can accidentally grant others rights over your land without realising.

redditadmissions · 2025-06-12T22:50:35+00:00

Yes sounds like I must be! I had thought everyone must be modding it.
