Ouir neighbours just had theirs done at £900. I was thinking about it, but at that price it's not worth it in my opinion.

Good luck keeping things on the wall in a new build. The walls are shocking. New builds are good for convenience but not in the long term. If it is attached to another property, you'll be able to hear everything they get upto. With new builds, there is always certainly a maintenance annual fee as well.

Any MATs using Azure? Any in Oxfordshire/Wiltshire (swindon) that do this so I could have a look? Have been looking at some courses, not online ones, but seem to be super expensive!

Panorama from last night. Some bad CEO's. Please remember that these are the exception. To be honest it made me angry as not all academies are bad, and if run in the correct way they are beneficial. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0003nw3/panorama-the-academy-schools-scandal

Me and the wife have just finished watching Breaking Bad. Watched all the episodes over a three week period. Superb. Best TV I think we've both watched. It's the sort of TV that we wouldn't have even contemplated, but wanted to know what the hype was about.

I bet they are illegal due to the fact it can be classed as a distraction.

I wish some of the cleaners would take ours. Right pain to manage.

How long did they take to get back to you? I am hoping to book in for April.

Don't add on a few quid, but have a figure in mind that you would be happy to accept. Advertising the car over the value won't help. Look at values on Parkers. Have you tried Gumtree? I sold my car on there. Be aware, which ever platform you use expect phonecalls at any time of the day!

I'm on O2, and to be honest it was nice not having the phone ringing and beeping at me. I had quite a productive day!

Completely down for me. Emergency calls only.

Wonder if I can get a refund on my kids ones? They have had them over 2 years, but this could be a case where a lot of parents return them?

Up again. Just heard on the radio. Swindon to Paddington is going to cost £270! That is shocking.

They leave mess and destroy perfectly good fields/playing areas. They intimidate people. -
We currently use Zendesk, but our central academy team are trying to pursuade us to use the Every System in replacement for our IT Fault system. I did look at it a few years ago and found it very unusable. Anyone use it? Any comments would be valued!

Damn Parent Pay. The student sync from SIMs works fine, but you cannot do it for staff. Why?! Been a bug bear for many years!

Staff use LAN School to blank student Screens, display the teachers screen. We use DameViewer for remote control but that is also old hat. So if there is something built in for Techs as well that would be a bonus.
-
So we use LAN School currently. It's a bit out of date, so we are possibly looking at another solution. Impero seems to be quite good, but does it have the same functions as LAN school?

Off to look at a used VW Golf later - how much discount should I ask for?

Down to the dealers discretion. If you don't get what you want, are you happy to walk away? You can always make an offer, and leave it with them. How long has the car been on the forecourt. So many deciding factors. Are you paying cash or finance through the garage. Finance would get you a better deal with them as they commission on that. Cash isn't key anymore. -
We are also going through a difficult time with our Cockapoo, Treacle. She's 5 years okd. About three weeks ago now, we woke up one morning and she couldn't walk. She lost all feeling in her back legs. After a Scan, it turned out she had slipped her spinal disc putting pressure on her spinal cord. That weekend was an eventful weekend, with plenty of decisions to be made. We only had £3k insurance, with £1k already spent on the scan alone. The vet recommended putting Treacle to sleep, but we had to give her a chance. It has been very hard work. She is a disabled dog and can't walk and is finding it difficult to control her bladder. She is slowly getting back, and feeling is coming back into her legs. It's messing her mentally though! She's all confused. We had a year to the day it happened, 1 september. Our new insurance started on the 1st, but the insurance company are getting funny about paying out. We started a crowd funding page to help us. Reluctantly I may add, but we wanted to give Treacle a chance. She has had 18 pups in the past (previous owner). Check our story at http://www.gofundme.com/treacles-aftercare

Turns out that a new category 'HTTPS Transparent Sites' was enabled during the update. Un-ticking this resolves the issue.
