    [Travel] Speeding Ticket

    I used to drive like a complete **** when I was younger (1990's). I was probably pulled over by police a dozen times but never received more than a bit of advice or a '7 day wonder'. The trick was not to be a dick about it. Thankfully I've grown up now. Even though I try to observe speed limits...

    [Misc] Does Anyone Forget What The Day Is, And What Is Your Most Embarrassing Moment ?

    I once took over from a chap who was covering the 5am > 1pm shift. I wished him a good day and set about my work. 5:30 that afternoon he came bounding back in apologising for being late. He was quite embarrassed when he realised he was in fact over 11 hours early. I still don’t understand how...

    Fortunate - otherwise he'd have a legitimate claim to live in Gino's property.

    [Misc] How many f*****g cars do your next door neighbours have between them?

    My near neighbour has a collection of Jags, and an obsession with Fiat 500’s. Thankfully he has a lockup nearby that he keeps most of his collection but he often has anything up to 10 cars parked on the street at any one time. I have a driveway that comfortably accommodates our 2 household...

    [Finance] Premium Bonds - prize pool increased again - you ever have any luck?

    I’m currently cycling mine through to get new numbers. Had rotten luck and decided to switch my very sporadic investments into 5 x £10k. I know mathematically it shouldn’t make a difference but I stick the £10k each month into a savings account and post it back to bonds at the end of the month...

    Wheel balancing is the same regardless of which corner of the car you decide to stick them on. You probably lost a weight off the wheel when switching.

    [Finance] Banking Problems

    Is the correct answer. Only issue I’ve ever had with them in 20 years is their over zealous fraud detection department.

    [Finance] What should the government do about the coming base rate mortgage hike time bomb?

    Printing a fresh £895,000,000,000 to bail out the banks was always going to lead to higher inflation / interest rates eventually. It’s just a surprise it’s taken so long.

    [Drinking] Brewdog: hipsters”, “pretentious”, “wankers”, “********s” or simply "full of s**t"?

    I’m an investor in EFP1 & 2. The last trading day was disappointing as the asset match price was only ~£6.50. But early investors only paid 46p so not a disaster. I’m holding out for IPO too. I think that will be closer to the £25 mark. Assuming that paying out the Private Equity Investment...

    [Finance] How much left on your mortgage?

    I lucked out big time through sheer laziness when I remortgaged in 2008. I can't be arsed with remortgaging each time a fixed rate deal comes to an end, so just went with a lifetime tracker at .49% above base. Rates were over 5% at the time, and payments over £1200 a month. This halved within a...

    [Albion] The "Season Ticket Renewals 2021/22" thread

    It would be a lot less hassle if the club made match day tickets more reasonable to buy so people were less desperate to get a season ticket. Leave the season tickets for people that will go to every game, as is their purpose, then use the priority/loyalty system to allocate the remainder. Not...

    [Misc] Working from Home - Have we seen a sea change ?

    Our main office has been closed since March for all but essential visits. All electronic passes were deactivated and you need director approval just to get in. The 1900 desks it houses are mostly empty and they’ve assessed that, if social distancing were to remain, only 500 could be used. No...
