Not surprise.. just pointing out that it's a little perverse.

OK. Have fun with that

Anyway, I don't 'trawl' the Guardian - as has been noted here many times, I read the Guardian. For all its faults, it still has the best news coverage for a UK newspaper.


Unfortunately (though often amusingly), it also has the most bats**t-crazy and reality challenged columnists and opinion writers for a UK newspaper. And, yes, they do print things that deserve to be highlighted and mocked on a semi-regular basis.


Besides, I think any sane person would think Alanis Morrisette's advice was dangerous and should not have been printed.

Blimey, it is easy to wind up Guardian readers.

Nicely done.

I don't believe in God, but I do read the Guardian (and the Observer)


Both are in their own 'world' of bonkersness, but there's nothing close to them that I like to read


And the food sections of both are 'word' for the industry


The weekend FT is my anchor to a harsher reality and it's a pretty colour

    • Another recommendation for Greg at Raven Plumbing and Heating. We found a leak at around 2pm, found this thread on EDF so gave Greg a shot and he arrived at 4pm and all (four!) leaks fixed by 5pm. When it’s an emergency, you worry you’ll be taken advantage of financially, but reasonable pricing and Greg gets the job done without any fuss. Thank you!! 07955656941 [email protected]
    • Been a while but it still looks abandoned. Does anyone know what is going to be there?
    • I would ask a solicitor. You may be able to claim compensation. You can speak to Lease free for 15 minutes ( very worthwhile), and a no win no fee Sol.
    • I am no expert by any means, but I wonder first if Foxtons belong to any kind of professional (I use the term loosely) body you could complain to, and second, if you have any grounds to take them to the small claims court. I am surprised and sorry that none of the people you have asked for help could actually help. To be fair, though, re the oven, they have offered to reimburse you for an air fryer, it is the weekend so probably difficult to get someone out to look at it,  and they seem to be addressing that problem at least pretty promptly? Do you have a grill and hob and kettle working OK? Also, is it not the owner's responsibility to address issues such as the mould and the bath?  Shouldn't Foxtons be liaising with them about this?  Oh, and this is not intended to be a joke - try asking ChatGPT (or similar) what you can do. It saves hours of googling  stuff online yourself.
