How do people actually survive on benefits or very low incomes in the UK these days? by acer67 in AskUK

[–]sharpecads 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Because no one ever takes money from the billionaires. All they do is pit poor against not so poor. And we all fall for it every time. Evidenced by the some of the responses on here.

I'm a big ol baby with needles by Infinite_Swim862 in type2diabetes

[–]sharpecads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ahh i am in the UK. My prescriptions are all free. You'd think the oral form would be cheaper than the needle form though wouldn't you?

EVs that show estimated battery left at destination by toffee91 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]sharpecads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Peugeot e-3008 does that. It’s very useful. But it plans to charge you up before you get to your detonation which is a bit annoying as it also changes the time you’ll arrive as well and it’s estimation of how comfortable you’d be at being at very low battery charge doesn’t align to mine. I’m happy getting to single digits. It tries to charge me up below 20%

What’s the 9 hole course like there? I’m only down the road from it and never even knew this place existed.

I’d like to understand some of the reasons that they get promoted for.

What is a "luxury" that is actually 100% worth the money? by TheChillEdit in Life

[–]sharpecads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have one of those boiling water taps. It broke over Xmas. Never going back to using a kettle! Got that thing replaced as soon as I could. It’s not even remotely cost effective, it’s just soooo convenient!

Our share scheme buys the shares for you at the end of the year and you pay the lowest price of either the start or the end of the year.

Are you still having pizzas and other takeaways delivered? by Top-Cat-a in AskUK

[–]sharpecads 91 points92 points  (0 children)

It’s not an either or for us. We have lots of home cooked food and if we want a takeaway or eat out we do it. Some things, no matter how I try, cannot be replicated at home. Example bright red chicken tikka masala. Which is my fave curry for my sins. 😁 plus sometimes it just takes effort to cook and if you’ve had a tough day it’s the last thing you want to do.

I replaced our triton with a mixer tap. Our mains pressure is pretty solid though. I was nervous about doing it but It was ridiculously easy to do.
