    GDPR consent

    Ok thanks both, that has helped somewhat.

    GDPR consent

    I've been reading various information on gdpr and am a little confused with implied consent, legitimate interests, needing consent, not needing consent etc. I was thinking I'm going to have to add tick boxes on all my forms but am not so sure now. An example is that I supply a service. Let's...

    Europe should we stay in or get out?

    All I can see is positives. What say do we have on what laws the EU make, or anything else they do? I admit, nothing would change my mind to vote to stay in, nothing, and I'm not bothered if some of these doom like economic predictions were to come true. I think it would be a small price to pay...

    Europe should we stay in or get out?

    Watch any of the debates on youtube and there's a clear difference between the ones that want to stay in and the ones that want to get the hell out. I watched The Spectator Debate: Should Britain leave the EU? the other day on youtube and it's unbelievable how the in lot performed. Some parts...

    Europe should we stay in or get out?

    Anybody undecided should watch Brexit The Movie. Just search it.

    Stop seeing ads in your Google results!

    I don't much like the ads either, especially now there's 4 at the top instead of 3. But that's only because of my organic position in the results being pushed lower, thanks also to the answer box (sometimes I'm in it), and maps and anything else Google can stick above me. Otherwise they wouldn't...

    Always have a wee before you go out

    Good advice. I used to do a bit of delivery driving for a cousin on a Saturday a few years back and could work all day without needing a pee but as soon as I got back home and to the front door there's a sudden desperate need to get to the toilet, and getting your flies down suddenly becomes...

    Help making business account

    I was talking about Lloyds (black horse) as it seems you might not have realised.

    Help making business account

    Have you tried the black horse out of interest? I was also looking for a business bank account about 3 months back and applying with them was pretty straight forward although it did take about 5 or 6 weeks all in all. I filled in the application online and had one phone call from them which...

    How long should a business bank account take to set up?

    I just set up an account with Lloyds. The whole process took about 5 weeks but was very straight forward. I spoke to someone on the phone for about 5 - 10 minutes mid way through so they could clarify a few details with me but that was it.

    Land register help

    Interesting question. I don't know the answer unfortunately but I have briefly wondered the same thing before when it comes to houses that have been sold prior to auction. I've never delved that deeply into it but only this Tuesday a house I would have been particularly interested in seeing at...

    How tricky is it to open a bank account

    I only became a Ltd company about a month ago and applied for a start up business bank account with the black horse just over 2 weeks ago. I was also told it could take up to 6 weeks. So far it's been painless. Filled out the application online, had a chat with somebody on the phone clarifying...

    High PR domains

    Rubbish. Expired domains that have good trust flow etc that haven't been spammed or penalised will often rank for the same keywords they used to as soon as Google re-indexes it, even with no content. So yes if the domain is going to be relevant to what it once was then it can definitely be...

    Cheapest way to get rid of scratches on my car?

    Depending on how deep or bad the scratches are I would definitely recommend G3 permanent scratch remover. I had somebody kindly scratch up my car by scraping it with their bumper although I never say them do it and nobody owned up to it. There were quite a few scratches as you might imagine...

    Domain catching?

    From my experiences backordering with Namejet can be worthwhile if it's a .com your after. It will go to auction if there's more than one bid but that doesn't mean you'll pay a high price in the end. It really depends on how highly sought after the domain is. If it's a uk domain name you want...
