The area's awash with holiday lets (of the posh variety) and BTL .... so you'd have thought they'd have grabbed it by now.
Probably grisly body parts in the drains
Time spent on reconnaissance is never wasted. We checked our local pub for a week before we bought. Made the right decision in the end.How do I get rid of a 13 foot trampoline? second ones on ebay don't seem to sell. The metal should be worth something I would think and the bed should be useful as a spare if nothing else. I am loathe to pay someone to take it away when it should be useful to someone intact.
Freecycle it so it's someone else's responsibility. Course there's no money in that but if you just want it to be somebody else's concern, that the way.There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0 -
Tried the burnout test and scored 53 which from the way it is described is probably about right. Not something I am particularly proud of.0

Tried that burnout test thingy. scored 45.:eek:
I scored 65, I think, just going to try again. ( 66 this time) My job is my own ...and very low effort really. I am sure mine is other reasons. I'd be aware that health causes can contribute to a lot of the feelings. ( I know lydia seems very healthy, i just think other less sensible people might ascribe to burnout what might have physical cause). And I am positive nutritional deficiencies or imbalances do. Goodness knows you have enough to deal with to feel burnout, but perhaps worth a motivated but not stressful consideration of nutritional support while you take what other steps you can?
Lydia, you are a bit of a night owl too aren't you? As you felt better rested on the break maybe using melatonin or something to help with sleep benefit or diurnal rhythm?
These things we cope with ok when not strained can be really exacerbated when the keel is far from even!
Also, just quickly discussing test with dh we both felt it is one of those things where personality plays a part. I feel stressed partly because I am less stretched than i want to be, I am also a pretty excitable person.0 -

You are very kind. 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 -
Pastures, saw these, any good?

Probably all rubbish, but thought I'd give it a go...Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

48 for me - funnily I got lots on the first half and very little on the second half.
Free cycle will definitely get the trampoline dismantled and removed.
michaels's need more good thoughts at the moment
I think....0 -

We were just tucking up for the night when dh got straight back out of bed and went down stairs. Left over potato is worrying him and he feels the need to sort it out.0

Good thoughts Michaels, Hope it all works out for the best. What ever it is
Would the metal of a trampoline be worth much anyway? Is it not tubular and this comparatively light?
Free cycle sounds a good idea.0 -
Dh got 33 on the burnout thing. We reckon that's normal to low for his sort of work.0
