Seat68 Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 I woke up with a fairly substantial nosebleed last night, I have never had one before. I thought only kids had nosebleeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked my blood pressure and it’s high so I need to keep an eye on that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted February 19, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 19, 2023 Purple Bricks are up for sale and have made massive losses last couple of years. So it seems the commission those blood sucking estate agents charge might actually be needed to support a functioning business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They take photos, stick on on rightmove… then not a lot else. I just don’t think it works as a bloated national company. As a small independent with smaller outgoings they can make it profitable.

I told my missus not to use them just because they "cheaper" when she was selling a property she had they told her to add 50k on top of asking value. I said to her this is stupid as no one is going to come view it. But PB insisted its better strategy. Behold no viewings. Drop it 4 weeks later and suprise suprise interest. The photos they took were really poor as well. Also when we found a buyer the solictors they allocate you (if you can call them that) were absolutely useless. Literally the worst. Awful company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Zen Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 The strangest thing happened today. I was visiting my grandmother in the care home, and one of the staff asked me a question, which I answered in what, in my head at least, sounded like my normal Norwegian accent. The staff member gave me a slightly surprised look and asked «oh, are you Dutch?» I just said «eh, no?» and she said «oh, ok» and that was that. ik heb geen idee wat er is gebeurd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Dickie Davis passed away on Sunday at the ripe old age of 94. Such a big part of my growing up and watching sport on TV as a kid. World of Sport seemed like it filled up the whole of Saturday as a kid. RIP Dickie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bled all over Asda car park (and myself), pouring out of me and wouldn't stop, substantial blood loss. Missus rang 111 and they sent an ambulance who decided to take me in after taking my blood pressure. Happy ending though, I didn't die and my blood pressure went back down. No repeat bleed so far either. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, same without the 111 stuff, it took me by surprise as I thought I had a runny nose as I was in bed at the time, wiped my nose and my hands were covered as was my face. My wife barely opened her eyes. Obviously couldnt sleep as I was going through all the things it could mean. Blood Pressure didnt even enter into it until the morning and turned out it was high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 In regards to the Shamima Begum case, since when did the role of the Home Secretary become a dictatorship? A young "British" girl left to rot in a refugee camp for making a terrible mistake. Smh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
