POFA 2012 and on site attendants, hand taken photo evidence.
A question that is relevant to a recent NTK I received that references POFA 2012: Does POFA 2012 keeper liability still apply if the car park had an onsite attendant who took photo evidence of the parking infringement and could have challenged or identified the driver at the time if they chose to? The photo evidence on the…

Debt, Diet and Decluttering - The Lifetime Diary
Does anyone else get the urge to sort every single issue in their life at the same time, get totally overwhelmed then bury their head in the sand or is that just me?

Parents Have Already Engaged with DRP and ECP. What now?
Hi everyone, I've gone through what I think is relevant in the newbie posts and read through some other mentions of ECP and DRP to see if I can get an answer there. It may be me thinking my problem is solely unique which it probably isn't but I just need to double check here. The short story is my mum received a letter…

Metro Trust Bank Account
I am a Trustee for a Trust which my late uncle set up to benefit my cousins upon the death of my aunt, who is now 91. Earlier this year, when my aunt moved to a care home, we had to set up a bank account in something of a hurry to receive the proceeds of the sale of her home (around £200,000). In the end we established the…

Replacement cat flap
We had a Sureflap microchip enabled catflap installed in a glass door. Over the years it has deteriorated and we now need to replace it. We don't think we need the microchip functionality any more, so we'd like to get a plain ordinary catflap - preferably one that permits minimal draughts. Can anyone recommend a model that…

I've not even got a mortgage yet, but here I go. I'm finally getting on the housing ladder and settling, after living around the country for the last decade.

Brita Limescale water filter
Hi, I bought a Brita jug. I was looking at their filters and since I live in a hard water area (London) I'm assuming their Limescale filters are better? But I have doubts because they seem to only mention they are for kettles and coffee, are they not ok to drink from the Jug? I'm not gonna buy another jug to put a…
