    Now what?

    Yes, I really don't know what I'm going to do with it yet though. At the moment I'm torn between doing very little more apart from cleaning up and selling it as it is. Replacing all the windows and upgrading it a bit better so we can either move back in to it or rent it out. Getting it really...

    Should Staff Be allowed In Late On Monday Morning

    I woke up about 4:00 Thought I would check to see who had won to discover they were in about the 5th minute of injury time, so watched the end. Didn't even know the start had been delayed, just a bit of good luck

    Kier Starmer stepping down

    There are too many pies and too many fingers in those pies. Every time any government, council, public body, etc. sets up funding for a scheme, there are people queuing up to get access to that funding for their own benefit. The same with charities, thousands of charities raising funds which...

    Kier Starmer stepping down

    I've been renting a property out unlawfully for a few years, risking a criminal record and a large fine. Not through choice and not to benefit me. Primarily because I was doing someone a favour and didn't want to make a them homeless. I was charging him probably half the market rate (even for...

    Kier Starmer stepping down

    These could be properties that the poorest could afford to rent , but it will be people a couple of steps up the ladder that will be buying them. The people who could previously afford to live in them, will no longer be able to. Like I said in my previous post, it's the poorest who will be hit...

    Kier Starmer stepping down

    The minimum energy efficiency standard will make poor people homeless. How many people who live in their own house are perfectly content without having to install a heat recovery system for shower mixer taps, solar water heating, having £3,500 external doors fitted, solar panels fitted, £10,000...

    Anyone know anything about TV's

    I've no idea how free Freeview works or what you need to make it work Signal can be a bit temperamental according to bloke who lived there before. Someone told me I might be able to take an old sky box over, plug that in and get all the free channels that way (without needing a sky account)...

    Anyone know anything about TV's

    I might be moving back to my old cottage soon. It has no phone line, no broadband, no aerial, a 20 year old Sky dish which I have no idea condition off. Is it possible to watch a TV with that set up, and if so, how?

    Artificial Intelligence (AI): What are your thoughts?

    I've used AI to get an estimate for capital improvement expense on a property I renovated in 1994, which I don't have all the receipts for. Not sure whether HMRC willl accept the figures but the AI also provided a comprehensive Capital Gains Disclosure Note. The figures the AI produced appear...

    Advice needed.. A director has gone rogue.

    It doesn't just become your company if he resigns as a director. Who are the shareholders? Just to add: When he said resign, did he mean resign as an employee or resign as a director?
