  1. The BBFC age classification is slightly different for cinemas. You get parental discretion when buying something in a shop like a Blu-ray or video game, but cinemas cannot admit under 15s for 15 films, and 18s for 18 films. https://www.bbfc.co.uk/rating/15
  2. Contact Lease Advice: https://www.lease-advice.org/ I think normally you should have a declaration of trust for disputes: https://www.lease-advice.org/article/share-of-freehold-when-joint-owners-should-consider-a-declaration-of-trust/
  3. Looks a bit like a plastic bag if you ask me.
  4. Presumably so people don't leave biodegradable bags instead of compostable bags in their food waste bin, most people aren't aware there's a difference. As for the rubbish, it's terrible if plastic waste falls out the bin. Some cardboard or a letter? Not so much.
  5. Now you mention it, I have...but up near the Horniman Museum. I chalked it up to a neighbour doing something crazy.
  6. You probably have already checked them out, but Virgin Media are often an option. Your ISP won't suggest that, as they can't provide services over them, only Virgin Media themselves can. Support can be a bit terrible though, but mind you which residential ISP doesn't?
  7. Ultimately, nobody really wants to pay for them. The banking doesn't make them any money and should the state really be subsidising the functions that the banks themselves used to, and should be providing? On top of that, they have a dwindling user base for the other competencies like currency exchange and logistics. I personally just use Google Pay abroad, and get my deliveries picked up by the postie or use a deposit box.
  8. Maybe the crims are picking the LTNs because that's where the posh houses are!
  9. Ofcom does charge Royal Mail for not delivering First and Second class mail on time, but it's done by metrics and not individual cases. They fined them £5.6m last year. Saying that, it's probably cheaper for Royal Mail to take the fine than to hire more carriers. I can see the industry moving towards a gig economy style thing in the future, akin to Amazon Flex
  10. I just think some owners are a bit dippy, they aren't aware that dogs cause a lot of issues for wildlife. Ground nest birds will abandon their young, foxes and badgers will abandon their dens, rats and mice will relocate into people's gardens and houses, squirrels and birds typically avoid dog heavy areas too. There are a lot of parks in the area that allow for unleashed dogs, so it really makes no sense to ruin the lives of other animals because the owner simply cannot be arsed.
  11. Appears to be a nice money spinner for them going by reviews. You probably have little chance of getting the deposit back, despite how onerous the terms might be. Being charged for services that weren't rendered however is another story. You probably want to speak to a solicitor who does litigation and see what they would advise.
  12. Really you should report this to the police, even if they take no action there will be a record that someone has reported this person for potentially illegal activity. It may be the precursor to more serious abuse in the future.
  13. I wondered why my computer went nuts!
  14. I don't think the modern approach to paving (i.e, smash up the slabs and dump tarmac down) helps either. I presume at one point the pavers used to all slope towards the gutter. At the very least it needs a good powerwash and biocide as I was nearly arse over heels the other day with how slippy it gets.
  15. I'm surprised anyone can hear the planes over the sound of the South Circular and day to day road traffic.
