I have a manual one but it's bl**dy time consuming. There are plenty of reasonably priced types on Amazon yet even if they get plenty of good reviews, there are always the bad ones.


Does anyone have one at home they would recommend? Nothing industrial. Just something quite small.


Thanks.

Hi Alan

I have mine it for years .. cost about ?24.00.


Up to 5 sheets at a time but better to keep it to 3.

Ideal for Domestic use. Easy to empty out collectin box.

How dare you HMB. If you were tracking them in the Sales section you will see they were being offered free, yes FREE, subject to terms and conditions.


The author himself was on a radio documentary just a couple of weeks ago. It was about this chap...

Anyway, thanks Fox and Loz. Still haven't decided.

Doc, if you are a member of "Which?" they have only just (this month) issued their best buys for shredders. Log on for full details. Otherwise, briefly, they are the:


Fellowes 11C:

The Fellowes Powershred 11C is a very good all-rounder and a worthy Which? Best Buy. It has a spacious waste bin, takes 14 sheets at a time and is plenty secure enough. In fact, we can't think of too many negatives to speak of.


ProAction 12 Sheet 18 Litre:

We really like the ProAction 12 Sheet 18 Litre. It's secure, spacious and won't be an eyesore in your home office. We wish it was a little quieter, but there are plenty of good reasons why this is a Best Buy shredder.


Both apparently cost less than ?60.

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
