Made my day.Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -

I don't think we could fit a paddling pool on our balcony unfortunately
might be able to get a large terracotta plant pot out there, fill it with water and just sit in it, but I have a feeling we might get complaints from the primary school whose entrance our balcony overlooks.
Our flat has a large south facing glass wall, it will be like a furnace in there by lunchtime!0 -

Could work. We are first floor but it is solid hardwood and then concrete floor a total of about a metre thick underneath us, so I reckon it could take the weight without any worries.
I'm not sure that the idea would receive a majority of eligible votes though!0
