It’s finally happened, landlady has given us notice to leave as she wants to sell. She has given us until the end of July, but we can give 1 months notice if we find somewhere sooner.

I’m worried she’s going to be petty about a lot of things. But mostly I just want to go now. Hopefully somewhere nice and affordable 😂

Motorhome vs Owning vs Renting: Costs and Lifestyle -

This is a long video but I wanted to compare in detail how is living in a motorhome comparing with renting or owning a place. From costs to lifestyle: comfort, resources, toilet, space, etc.. The focus is on Spain since this is where I lived for the past many years.

I hope this video is useful for some.

Ubisoft suggests you become comfortable not owning games: why people are annoyed.

Lots of people online nowadays seem to think the Nintendo 64 was a weird and/or janky console. Yeah, it some ways it was, given the Playstation coming out and practically eating it's lunch.

But, here's the deal. At the time, the Playstation had very few games that supported more than 2 players. What did the N64 have? It had Mario Kart, Star Fox, Goldeneye and countless other 4 player games that revolutionized living room friend get togethers.

At the same time, the N64 also revolutionized the 3D space with Mario 64, the legendary launch title, now sadly taken for granted.

Playstation, meanwhile revolutionized genres with hits like Final Fantasy 7, Wipeout, Tekken 3 and Metal Gear Solid.

It was amazing to experience either system, really.

My point is that more attention to should be paid to when things happen.

You don't expect people in the 80's to all have had pocket cellphones, just like you wouldn't expect people in 2026 or even 5 years earlier to lug around a Apple II with a CRT monitor.

In any case, lets enjoy history and retrogaming, whether you were alive to see it or not.

Also in my opinion, every game deserves a chance, but, what should be prioritized is the rights of the players to own the games they desire, and to be able to play it offline if it has an ability to do so. Gamers, book aficionados and music lovers should unite to reassert that ownership is important in this day and age. If you don't own what you buy, you're just renting it till they turn off the lights. If it's "in the cloud", it's actually on someone else's computer, and again, they can just turn it off whenever.

Well, that's a rant for another day, but yeah, haha.

The salary you need to earn to rent alone in London in 2026 — and it’s bleak

Did some repairs at dad's house. The room the hoarder roommate had been in was still in pretty bad shape and had been closed off. I started removing the flooring. There is no cleaning it. Kitty litter is embedded in it.

I also started installing the drywall on the ceiling. What happened to the original drywall? That's a story. The roommate's fix was made of tarps, cardboard, and stapled. Thst's all gone.

For long-term renters, the Govt. may be about to save them from fixed-term tenancies & no-fault evictions, but by turning all tenancies into 'periodic' or indefinite tenancies has expose renters to a yearly stamp-duty calculation.

While this doesn't become payable until rent has reached a cumulative £125k, a yearly tax return *is* required.... and in London its likely only to take six years to reach the rent threshold (longer elsewhere, less time for shared housing).

Australia spends more on tax breaks for landlords than social housing, homelessness and rent assistance combined https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/jan/29/australia-tax-breaks-landlords-more-spending-than-social-housing-homelessness-rent-assistance-combined #Tax #Housing #AustraliaNews #AustralianEconomy #Inequality #Poverty #CostOfLivingCrisis #Homelessness #SocialHousing #Renting

Anyone who thinks Labour are on the side of renters when they are allowing private landlords a decade to bring their home up to a new Decent Homes Standard might think again

Clearly implementation cannot be immediate, there would always need to have been a transition time; but a decade?

Looks like Rachel Reeves (champion of landlords resisting the ground rent cap) was more successful this time in protecting profits for landlords for another 10 years.

This is horrible. Build quality of houses built to be rented is crap.

They were all back after slaying them all 10 minutes later

The email I sent:
"can you please advise when I can expect reimbursement for the urgent repairs? It's been just over a week now."

The email I wanted to send:
"per legislation, reimbursement for urgent repairs is due within 7 days. As you have not met this nor communicated a reason for the delay I will be contacting consumer affairs."

Why? Because I know I have additional non-urgent repairs to request and don't want to piss off the property manager. Housing should not be this way.
