Way too much information there - If you suddenly stop posting we'll know that you've just been arrested
Don't forget in swimming pools - nothing worse than a mouthful of cheap eau de cologne laden water
Yuck !
I NEVER swim.
Except in dulcet tropical waters.
It sounds as if you have done your homework. It looks as if the govt and BoE as trying to maintain house prices and might even contemplate an interest rate reduction to achieve this. I have plenty of experience in letting but not so much in financial matters other than some educated common sense.
1km at 9am is good for the body, spirit and soul
Tropical waters are for relaxing by, not swimming in
Once upon a time I used to go swimming at a public pool where Age Concern organised a session just before a small group of us. The water absolutely reeked of Ralgex before we went in.

Is that what you call it ?
DG
Probably that as well!
Why did you keep "The beer's awful, I'll be glad when I've had enough"
DG
Also allowing in 1.1 million people to sustain demand and keep prices high so Little Middle England can be happy.
Because he's alcoholic?
All his non smoking workmates probably chose the smokiest possible pub to meet in in the hope he wouldn't turn up.
Yes.I was another of those parents in the late 70s it all worked out ok in the end, very character building but not something I would recommend.
-I followed this thread with increasing disbelief. Usually uk.d-i-y has some kind of rationality but this seems to have departed here.
Where's the evidence for this? Even if it affects a different part of the lung it does not prove that passive smoking is not the cause.
Tobacco smoke contains many known carcinogens such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and nitrosamine. I think the onus is on the tobacco industry to prove it is safe - which they can't.
Whether you agree with the ban or not there is no doubt that passive smoking kills.

There's no doubt God exists either.
Get back to your swim in Egypt.
Tobacco smoke (*) is loaded with known carcinogens. There is no doubt whatsoever that inhaling it is bad for you.
(* And lots of other smokes, too, it has to be said.)
This man needs to eff off as he is a total idiot.
A very good post.
Not only that, but very unpleasant for the secondary smokers.
Hi Ed thanks for your reply I did appreciate your original answer as a landlord in fact it was partially your confidence in the rental market that persuaded me to proceed with the purchase I realise this is not the best time to be buying but my own financial situation is quite secure for the next five years and I have managed to find an excellent house which I consider to be good value for money even at todays prices. I am also young enough to be able to take the risk without losing any sleep as to how im going to feed the family. If I sit on the fence with cold feet until all the stars align, well I should probably take up knitting and become another armchair expert.
What codswallop! The rise in crime over the last 20 years has exactly coincided with the rise in so-called "rehabilitation" and parole and probation. There will always be crims who are not discouraged by punishment, but at least imprisonment takes them, or at least used to take them, off the streets for a few years. Now they are given an ASBO and an ankle bracelet, and go off to Been-an-Queued for a hacksaw followed by a resumption of their criminal behaviour.
The only way, the *only* way, to stop crime is to either persuade crims that they would be better off not committing crime by making the chances of being caught very high and the punishment so draconian the risk of it is not worth committing the crime, or by taking the crims out of circulation so they are unable to commit crimes any more. Teaching them a trade doesn't do it, since crime is often easier and more lucrative than any job. Making the poor dears face up to the consequences of their crimes doesn't work, because usually they don't give a stuff and often have an uncontrollable drug habit to feed anyway.
Or do you actually think crime is dropping in the UK.
