I was thinking on buying a land in the UK and buy a prefab/kit house that cost about £2000-£3200/sqm . Did you consider that option? Why did you reject it?

Thanks! That's great to hear. When I was working with audio, I had a good experience with the E-Mu devices, but everything else what iffy, e.g. TC Electronic or Focusrite that I otherwise love.

I'm not familiar with US employment laws, but the amount of hours is not in your contract? The number of hours and the nature of the schedule is not something the employer is allowed to change in Europe. Zero-hour contracts are explici

My wife's and my Fitbit Charge 2 can still get a good going of 5 days with a 3-4x hour-long exercise recording. My main issue with Fitbit is it treats us like someone who bought it for fashion. Also I prefer strength training, and to m

Yeah, but junor from HCoL is not the only option, so why would you consider the most expensive one?

It is a shame this is not applied to the oldie diesel trains. I often see a 9-carriage train that each has its own engine running idle at a crowded station. Having 15 platforms as at London Bridge Station, provides a decent concentrated dos

Why this is only applied to the very central of London? (Even the Tower Bridge is not covered.) Why is it allowed to pollute the streets where people actually live?
