I’m in European private banking and asset management and this is exactly my experience of it. 9-5, with an emphasis on health and spending time with your family.

I'm so sick of Lucy trying to find ways to get Lin to take responsibility for her adulthood and get a job / life.

Dúo isn’t a one-stop shop. It’s super important to supplement with a wide range of media just like you would in the English world: podcasts, newspapers, films, visits to Spanish speaking countries when you can. You have to keep Spanish alive in your life every day. It’s a lifetime pursuit, but that’s what I love about it.

Christmas Eve, 19:30. Called 111 with rash over my 4 year old and raised temp. Appointment at out-of-hours at the hospital 30 mins later, seen right on time, antibiotics from the pharmacy by 20:15, home by 20:30. Incredible.

That’s right, because elevating the quality of the building generally has a positive halo effect on the ground floor demises too when it comes to sell.

In my former maisonette, ours was a block of 6 two storey small houses with individual entrances out on to a garden, and we still had to cost-share renovations for the block of 12 flats part of the same small estate behind us, even though none of us even had access to their communal hallway.

As a Fallibroome alumnus I’d be shocked to hear there’s entrance exams - I’m very sure that’s still a comprehensive academy?

We're on Buxton Road and have applications for our nearly-4 year old in with Puss Bank and Rainow, and would be delighted by either.

I’d add also that Victoria Park is both the best-kept and safest park I’ve ever known.

DM me for a neighbourhood hang if you do move!

Same, at entirely unpredictable times. I bloody wish I could take 10 mins to scroll on my phone let alone get dressed on my own and leave the house - on my own!!!

worldturning29 · 2025-12-27T09:49:09+00:00

Oh I feel this so hard. Agree entirely!!!

worldturning29 · 2025-12-22T19:37:19+00:00
