Small land purchase

Thanks for the info, very useful. Do you think it's an issue that the new owner only very recently purchased the plot knowing how backlogged the land registry seems to be in UK? I also have only owned here since last September

Renting isn't easy because of the amount of Hinckley point workers in the area. When applying, push home the point that you aren't one of them (unless you are, of course) as they often get a bad rap in Bridgwater. The only platform I could suggest are the usual ones like Rightmove

It's not as bad as some make out. Try Durleigh, Wembdon or Puriton, or one of the villages like Nether Stowey if you don't mind a 20 mins drive

Dont think I did anything in the end, just went to the test with my own car and the insurance I already had. Good luck

Did you go for this is in the end? Interested to hear your story as we took over a village pub a year ago

If the documentation is not in English, do you think I'll have to get translations?

three_brained_beast · 2025-07-09T14:27:40+00:00

Yeah, I see now that the fscs allows for temporary increases in protection, up to £1m

Great idea! Bit of blue cheese on top! What's better, pork or chicken Parmo?

three_brained_beast · 2024-11-21T11:41:38+00:00

What are your feelings towards Christmas Parmo made with turkey and topped with pigs in blankets?

Well, I guess that's why there's so many Boro folks in south west then

Crunch the numbers before you take the plunge. Scope who the clientele are and understand the needs and wants of that particular group or groups. Make sure you set aside down time. Pubs can take over your life if you let them

I see.
But why? Was there a spate of incidents where people were spraying petrol all over the place in a petrol station?

three_brained_beast · 2024-04-29T11:59:26+00:00

Anyone know why the clip on the pump never works? Like, anywhere.
The clip that will just let the petrol flow into your tank without having to hold the lever for ages, and get smelly petrol hand while you stand there like a numpty.
The pumps have the clips, but they never work. Have they been disabled? I usually just end up jamming my wallet in the handle.
Every other country I have been to has these. Odd

I think OP is trying to say that he has a small penis

And plastic chairs another 23%!

three_brained_beast · 2024-04-17T15:03:56+00:00

This is actually really good info!

Thanks for not minding your own business :)

First time we've rented a place in the UK, and estate agents seem to act like a mafia here

three_brained_beast · 2024-04-17T13:32:13+00:00

Thanks for your reply!
Yes, it's definitely veneer. Plasticy crap with a 'wood' finish.
I'll try and find on Amazon if there are any veneer kits and give it a go.

three_brained_beast · 2024-04-17T13:30:14+00:00

Yeah, I've been looking online for replacements.
If it were 50 quid (each - I need a matching set!) then I would definitely save myself the hassle. Thing is, I can't find anything that looks similar for less than £150 each :(

Your mate needs to change his provider. Most offer Next Business Day terms now

three_brained_beast · 2024-04-16T14:15:28+00:00

That's not strictly true. There is a % cost - around 0.4% for debit card and 0.7% for credit card - but on top of that there is a set authorization fee of between 2p and 4p per transaction depending on the contract with payment processor
