  1. didnt we reduce it last year so people couldnt just hold players. gave you more to think about each week.
  2. If we are playing the same scoring, i think we should do same team positions and size. That Flex will always be a RB if allowed and will just make RBs even more demanded/scarce
  3. zak

    Bitcoin

    I believe Revolut plan to adopt bitcoin, so will be alot easier to purchase soon. Which i guess may increase demand
  4. zak

    Bitcoin

    No Ethereum? I have mostly Ethereum and some Bitcoins
  5. The only hatchback faster than mine! Well played sir!
  6. Hmmm, do you play 2 player out and about with it often? i.e a flight with the GF? thats my rational really
  7. So how is the switch working out for those that have it? im still tempted.
  8. Wait, people still clean their own cutlery? why would anyone not get a dishwasher? you can buy them on finance so it cant be cost. lack of space? nostalgia?
  9. Well my girlfriend is moving in with me this weekend so we will see how it goes. I dated her originally in Dublin in 2009 and we have been friends(etc ;)) since up till 2 years ago. While we weren't together people would tell us we would get back together which i think both of us believed. I would be pretty sure we will get married in a couple of years. Anyway back on topic of her moving in, obviously it will be abit weird but im not too worried about those situations mentioned, we are already quite happy to be separate and do our own things. We will be working from home together 1 day a week which could cause issue, i also work from home another 2 days (3 days total) so will have my space. The thing i am most worried about is actually our sleeping schedules. Because we both train alot and because of how often i work from home, we will both wake up at varying times every day. I am sure ill get used to it, but might be irritating.
  10. Sunday 3rd seems to make the most sense and no one has said they cant do that yet
  11. Bank holiday weekend then. Either way im sure that makes it less preferred than other Sundays. How about that Monday? 28/08?
  12. to be fair, some actors yeah. the point is at that time, you werent thinking about the plot, everyone was thinking "thats Ed Sheeran, why is he there" or something of that ilk. I guess for a big actor, lets say Brad Pitt, would be fairly similar especially for just a cameo. But you might think less about why an actor is acting in a tv show than another celeb acting in a tv show. For me someone like Steve Buscemi would cause very little time in questioning his appearing. The amount of time spent not thinking of the plot seems to directly correspond with irritation to the show for casting. (Its not Ed's fault) Anyway i was looking online to see who else had cameos and found this article in GQ which probably sums it up way better than i do: http://www.gq.com/story/ed-sheeran-game-of-thrones-cameo
  13. I didnt like it, because it take you out of the show into real life, if you know what i mean. Its nothing to do with my dislike of Ed Sheeran. If any celeb i couldnt picture in Westerous or wherever popped up i would get irritated.
  14. I actually thought i had discussed quite alot over last few pages but it appears not as much as i thought. A you can see from the above i take a really basic Economical view, might be because i studied Economics at Uni. Either way as a fairly long term investments plan for the Fund, I am not too worried, we are not over-leveraged and we have bought well in what i believe are great locations (mostly Tooting and Kidlington) I completely understand everyone's worries and agree the pricing of housing in the county is ridiculous, i just dont see what drastic change will cause a major correction other than a destruction of the UK economy bigger than we would have seen in decades.
  15. Open Days. Usually a sign of a large market with high demand. I was looking at Croydon 2 years ago and they used to have 30 min long open days on Saturdays. You ended up joining them for like 4 of the properties. There would be maybe around 70 people at each. Then they would go to sealed and final bids by lunch time the following Monday. Always went for like 10% over asking price. An absolutely crazy market but why would agents do any differently. they couldn't cater for all 70 people. Never heard of them doing them during usual working hours though, maybe if its a property with serious renovation needs and thus would be more catered for serious developers. Auctions are also different. FYI, i run a small resi property fund and manage a few properties. Mostly SW London, but also Oxfordshire and soon to be Sutton Coldfield
  16. I Dont know if this is just due to Premier League or due to it being a very good player going from and too clubs that are unlikely to find another player anyway near as good. Can you name a players who would be as influential as Sigy who would go to Everton for Less?
  17. This! People predict a housing crash every year but until supply outgrows demand, how and why would prices drop? To reduce demand, you would have to change the British viewpoint that one needs to own a house, which iif it does happen it wont be in a year. This would also lead to a higher demand and thus prices for rent. are peoples beliefs still going to be you dont need to own a house if rent goes up and house prices go down?
  18. I know Giroud is the but end of jokes etc but is he really that bad signing. This past season he has the best goals per minute ratio in the premier league. Fine he didnt play as many minutes as alot of the players he has beaten but you can only score when on the field. I also understand the argument that goal scoring is only one aspect of whats needed from a forward but it is obviously the most important one in most cases.
  19. Yeah, if going down this route you should seek legal advice. Yeah, there shouldnt be an issue if buying at market value, although i dont know what you would have to do to confirm it is market value, I presume just get a valuation from a surveyor and pay that price. However, again seek legal advice as you never know what laws will be in place for this, probably something stupid like you have to have the property up for sale with a local estate at that price for 2 weeks before you can sell it to a relative or who knows what.
  20. No Tax to pay if parents no longer live in it and child is going to live in it and parents live for more than 7 years afterwards. Inheritance Tax comes in if Parents dont live for another 7 years. Maket rate rent would need to be paid by parents if staying in property or it would be designated as still part of parents estate. Children would have to pay tax on the rental income If the child does not live in the property and sells it at a later date, they will need to pay capital gains tax on profits
  21. Of course, sorry, you are right. If you buy a house for market price, should be no issues with tax or anything like that, just your mortgage provider may not allow it, they often don't like sales between related people. If they give you the house ("gift") what i said above is true. If you buy for below market value, i.e 50% it is considered the difference (50%) is gifted to you and that is eligible to inheritance tax in the same manor as above
  22. From Erdington High Street to Henley, very Swanky!
  23. Such a weird rule. thought it was 5 but either way. However you arnt taxed on anything below £325,000 if one parent and £650,000 if both parents. So for example if your buying it off both your parents, and god forbid they both passed away in the next 7 years, you would only be taxed on any values over £650,000 so if the house is less than that you woulndnt be taxed on it. I think this is right anyway, happy to be corrected
