Elderly mum with cash/assets? Tough, it's her money not yours!!!
This is me venting. So fed up with all these threads from adult children wanting to get hold of their parents' house/savings/inheritance. And all of them come on so sanctimonious, claiming that it's only because they're concerned about their mum, heaven forbid that anyone should think they're angling after the money,…

Vent: Too much noise!
I live in a maisonette above a shopping area. Monday to Saturday it can get a bit rowdy out there in the afternoons, but that's fine. Just a few people shouting.

Design your own Converse - not such a good deal after all......
So annoyed that Solecreator.com have chosen to increase their prices after the good people on here advertised their product. They put themselves on Groupon yesterday, lots of us signed up and paid for one and now they have increased their prices by £10 per pair.
