    Spec me a laptop for mum

    I got my mum an HP laptop a few years ago which is starting to struggle now, so planning to replace it. She doesn't do much on it other than MS Office, general browsing and youtube etc. Are there any particular laptops people would recommend? Looking for 15.6inch screen at least since that's...

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    I normally don't use a case with my phone, but kind of tempted to keep it nice and shiny for as long as possible. I got the official silicone case with one of the promos, but don't like it at all - feels very slippy and cheap. Do people have any other particular recommendations? Also, are...

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    I got the S24+ rather than the ultra because I far prefer the shape, and have zero use for the stylus. I did look into the Exynos vs Snapdragon beforehand, but from what I can tell, this Exynos is significantly better than the previous one and given my general usage, I really don't think I'll...

    How do people afford to work in expensive areas of the country?

    I've had colleagues move from here to the US (California) and have said that whilst in number terms, their salary doubled, in practical terms, it's the same given much higher cost of living there. The wealth disparity (at least in San Francisco) is insane - I grew up in India, have travelled a...

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    What charger are people using? I had a samsung official 45W one I bought for my S8 Tab, and this morning it seems to have stopped working. Looking at its reviews on the site, seems to be a very common issue.

    Hmrc - ebay/airbnb/vinted etc new rules - 1st Jan 2024

    It's orders. Each order is transaction (whereas multiple items in a single order, is one transaction).

    Pillow talk.

    I got one of those Tempur ones a few years ago and seems to be holding up well - hugely heavy though!

    Sadly no watch! That code expired on 25th apparently:(

    Bought the S24+ in Violet. Thanks to all the codes (and thanks again W50!), got it for 706 (instead of 999), as well as a free screen protector and silicone case

    VISA Advice to work in the UK

    What kind of Visa he is on now may make a difference, so worth finding that out. For a work permit, you normally have the minimum salary requirement as well as needing an employer who will sponsor you. They used to (and I would assume still do) - need to demonstrate that no one else in the UK...

    What are the discounts available/cheapest way to get the 24+? Samsung have a code for £100 off the + if there's no phone to trade in (which is the case for me), and another one for 5% off when using the app, bringing it from £999 to £849. Is there anything else to stack on it? :)

    Hmrc - ebay/airbnb/vinted etc new rules - 1st Jan 2024

    I'm fairly familiar with these rules coming in, so happy to answer what I can if that would help - though not a tax person so can't help on what HMRC will do, how you'll be proving things etc. etc. :)

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    Yeah, I'm currently debating between the One Plus 12, Samsung 24+ and Pixel 8 (Pro maybe). Hoping for some more comparison reviews soon!

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    Is the Ultra worth it over the plus? It looks like main difference is the 200mp camera and the snapdragon chip. But given the cost of the s24+, I can't imagine the exonsys chip is that bad...?

    Mens Shower Gel

    I used to use original source a lot. Now after tying a few others, have landed on Faith in Nature, the orange and grapefruit one.

    Tips & tricks for cheap train tickets

    Why did you choose Milford out of curiosity? I think I'm in a similar position to you at the moment (living in Putney and looking to move a bit further afield sadly given more space in the next year or so), so will start looking for place inspiration :D

    Reccommend me a digital photo frame

    I got the Aura frame for my parents - very happy with it. Expensive though at 150 - 180. I like the fact that you upload pics via your phone to it, and can do it remotely (they're in India, I'm in UK and I can still add photos to it)

    Flush button query

    Replaced the whole cistern last year and the plumbing company said it was Grohe, so assuming they didn't pull a fast one, was Grohe, rather than Grone :cry: It's not completely broken down, but takes a good number of pushes before it flushes unless you get lucky and it happens in one or two.
