Regardless of whether they knew about tips and vans, why weren't they using moving day for, well, moving (ie taking stuff from one house to another) rather than clearing (ie taking stuff to the tip)?Are they fully out yet???
I'll go "take possession" in 20 minutes' time, this time whether they're there or not.
There are loads of crises like that in this series, which I found very informative when I was gearing up to go house hunting for the first time.0 -
If NPT 11 was the thread where the NPT planned or moved house, will NPT 12 be the one where they all gain badges? Would Pastures qualify for a mortgage free one pretty much straight away too?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?

On the badges, with the mortgage free you have to sign up to something on the mortgage board I think. I did look, & very quickly couldn't be 4rsed/lost interest.It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.0 -

All you have to do it post one post on the mortgage free roll of honour thread saying a bit about how you got to be mortgage free. Then I think you wait weeks or months for the badger to notice and give you a badge.Do you know anyone who's bereaved?

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 had a thread that became a money dilemma in the weekly email.
