    Mechanical pencil alternative

    I'm right handed so always stick my pencil behind my right ear - then its always at hand and I never need to go looking for it. The other day I went to fetch it from behind my ear and it wasn't there! - I spent ten minutes looking everywhere for it and eventually found another one lying around...

    Help Needed

    Forget the door, surely the most important question is whether this is a gender neutral toilet and if not WHY NOT!

    Hardware, where do you get yours?

    What do you charge - bathroom locks/doors

    The near retired chap I use for gas safety checks told me a story of how he once took on an apprentice quite a few years ago. Now this guy is very diligent and thoughtful and takes his work very seriously and does an excellent job, anyway It became clear after a few months that the young lad he...

    Nice skip find

    This discussion has reminded me of a housemate I had whilst living in a shared house at university. He would buy a newspaper everyday but would refuse to let anyone read it after he had finished with it and would dispose of it in a suitable manner that ensured no one else got to see it - despite...

    Nice skip find

    I'd be very happy if anyone removed anything from a skip I was filling - that would leave me more room to dump more stuff!

    Mortgage rates / interest etc

    In all seriousness though and back to your original query - one thing worth considering when making your decision is that 5 year fixes are being offered at a slightly lower rate than 2 or 3 year fixes! We can take from that, that those those that are setting these product rates are predicting...

    Mortgage rates / interest etc

    Its everywhere - it has expanded the money supply - that means more money chasing (due to lockdown) even fewer goods and services. Its doing what any increase of the money supply (inflation) does to the economy - it is raising prices, devaluing debt etc - and the central banks are responding by...

    Mortgage rates / interest etc

    I have to say i'm not grasping your analogy - the reason some received newly created money during the lockdown was because the state prevented them from working and earning and so they just received what they would have received had they been allowed to work. Others who were allowed to carry on...
