What punishment is appropriate for people who recline their seats in economy on a short haul BA flight?

@idlewildgirl Is that Ripponden. If it is the sticky toffee pudding at the engine in sowerby bridge is the best ever.

I love how I always spend a few minutes perusing a dessert menu before asking for the sticky toffee pudding every single time

@jamiebsmith Love brewdog blue waters, love the view out from the terrace.

Currently at the BrewDog bar on Bluewaters and the place is rammed beyond capacity. It seems Dubai hasn’t died.

@siobhanworld Very different. Used to be at church, Thursday , Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Think that’s why I am so against organised religion now.

@siobhanworld Me too. Don’t know if it’s good or bad?

For all of my childhood up until I left home at 18, Good Friday was always mass at 3pm followed by the stations of the cross. Today, I had an Easter egg for breakfast and my shopping is being delivered between 3pm and 4pm. It’s funny how life changes so completely.

@Hplays_piano I tried acupuncture, did not work at all, saw a physio and they sorted it out in a could have visits.

@Danny_Clayton Was thinking that yesterday.

Wonder how long before lenders roll back out the 6 month product transfer window. Cause they’ll be bleeding business with clients wanting to secure a rate early in this current climate.

@charlotte_90xx Really love dubia. Everyone really positive and up for trying to get on

Not everyone who has relocated to Dubai is an influencer or “washed-up footballer,” and they certainly haven’t all moved there purely to dodge taxes! If this war has taught us anything, it's how many bitter people there are in this country 🤣 Haters will hate I guess!

@MortgageMikeN2 @unearthed2023 Not much, have a villa with its own pool so just having a decent break. Could live here but can’t work from abroad. Not does face to face since covid so would not really matter where I am in the world.

@RodMortgageMan @unearthed2023 What sort of activities are you doing? As I’ve only stayed at Atlantis didn’t do anything outside the water park and shopping malls.

Would rather pull my eyes out with forks than live in Dubai. Probably the fakest, most culturally lacking place on earth. On a positive note… at least all the chavs are leaving the UK to live there 👌🏼

@MortgageMikeN2 @unearthed2023 I really like it. Here now, 10th visit in total. Think it’s a brilliant city. Great hotels and loads to do.

@unearthed2023 Been a couple of times and stayed at the Atlantis both times. Definitely worth a visit but agree about living there, wouldn’t be for me.

@suemcco11 I am also in dubia this week

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend, I’m in Dubai so not online as much atm, also thanks everyone for all the Dubai tips & recommendations ❤️❤️

@CheekyVic I own a mortgage advice company if you need any help. We don’t charge any broker fees at all.

Viewing houses today 👀

@idlewildgirl My dog died back In august. He was really ill for a year or so before he died. It’s not great how you feel guilty that you don’t have to worry about them if you go away.

Feels strange to be getting ready to go away for a few days and not having anxiety about making sure the cats medical needs are taken care of, I feel a bit guilty for feeling a bit relieved, it’s such a complicated emotion

@ClareLou1878 Yep. If you get chance listen to him on the high performance pod cast, think he’s the best ever guest.

@ClareLou1878 I think there is a rule where you can’t get a second honour so soon to getting a previous honour, seen him speak twice live, brilliant bloke.

@missm_teachess If you neee any advice or help pretty good at this kind of thing helped hundreds of people in your situation

As a teacher, the Christmas holidays should be peak excitement and time to recharge. Instead, I’m stress spiralling over mortgage maths of attempting to buy out my ex.......... 🎄🙃

@suemcco11 No probs any help or advice you need let me know. Glad to help.

@RodMortgageMan ah ok ty

Anyone been to Dubai? Any info about it? ❤️

@suemcco11 I went ti blue waters for the first time last month and really liked it as an area. Really nice and relaxed and loads to do.

@RodMortgageMan and it’s easy and not too expensive to get taxis to the main area each evening for dinner etc? from the palm i mean

@suemcco11 Yep taxis are really cheap normally just Que yo outside the hotels. Think it’s a brilliant place to go would like ti live there full time to be honest.

@suemcco11 Think it depends what you want out of a holiday, I have stayed on the palm twice at different hotels and really liked both hotels. Stayed at the Atlantis last time and really liked it, really busy with loads of restaurants and a private beach

@RodMortgageMan would you recommend staying in the palm area? is that near enough to the marina and mall in taxis? or is staying on JBR nicer? the palm area seem to have private beaches but is jbr nicer beach and closer to everything?
