Every time there has been a format change, the Great British Public have complained in numbers. We don't like change, it seems. That's a great shame - Australian Masterchef is so much more entertaining, US too. |

Yep, via a couple of women's Euro QFs! |

New series already made. Winner / finalists will expect to be well compensated by the Beeb, as it seems set to be canned... |

As an alternative to Preston, Chorley has fabulous pubs all within a short walk of the station. Or, Colne, just hhe other side of Burnley, reachable by bus, cheap as chops and a great night out (for pubs) |

I won't bother unpicking all the untruths in that rant, but for starters, air quality in London is measurably, significantly improved since ULEZ. And for seconds, UK's reliance on gas for energy makes our electricity far more expensive than in France or Germany, where nuclear and renewable are far more important. Reducing our reliance on gas is essential.
"Miliband wants to cover East Anglia in solar farms and pylons" is, of course, absolute rubbish. But it does make sense to install solar and wind where there is existing Grid capacity. |

He is over here more often than is noted on twtd. He has other business interests in the UK, so he pops into ITFC fairly often. |

It looks like a fairly simple equity increase to me, along the lines of when Brightpath bought in, albeit this time with the lure of a controlling stake.
It would be a fabulous development, if it happens. I suspect it will. |

I quit very early, and have pretty much lived off 3% the last decade or more. There have been big market ups & downs in that time, and a bout of entirely unexpected inflation, and all is fine financially.
If had followed the 4% rule, I would still have been fine, so I suggest it is one of those rare simple bits of advice that is actually valid.
Another simple way is to try to divide your assets 3 ways, between property, pension(s) incl govt pension, and other savings. If any one let's you down, value-wise, you'd still be ok.
I would add, though, that your outgoings are unlikely to be consistent year on year. At some point, hedonism may give way to slothism, but then there's the risk of having g to shell out for new knees / hips unless the NHS gets sorted, let alone later cost of personal care. |

It's a 10,000 step day plus a 40-minute walk. It is a commitment, but not totally out of order! |

I have been monitoring for several years, using basic fitbit trackers. Roughly, if I average <10,000 a day, I put weight on. At around 10,000 a day, my weight is static. From 15,000 a day I lose around 2 kilos a month. Rest of regime unchanged throughout.
Ah well, back to 15,000 steps again very soon!
(5,000 steps is about 40 mins brisk walking for me) |

Underground and buses work, but almost no National Rail.
Making this an absolute pain to get to for most.
Parking near Millwall isn't easy, and traffic is ruddy horrible due to people going shopping. It's got Galloways written all over it. |
