Quick Question Thread

You could try Falkirk Health Club. It's not too far from the town centre on East Bridge Street. I've no idea what it's like, though, but it's the only one near the town centre I can think of.

You also have Shipshape across from the police station West Bridge Street.

Cheers, boys. The Shipshape club is looking like the better option, with it not being far from Falkirk Grahamston (my hotel is a two-minute walk from there). Seeing nothing on either of the websites about pay-as-you-go options, though, so I'll maybe just go into both and see what the craic is from there. Appreciate the help.

I have a question about the NHS. I was told if I lived outside the UK long enough and thus didn't pay NI contributions, I wouldn't be entitled to non-emergency care. Is this true? I'm still a UK citizen but have permanent residency in the Czech Republic.

My spacebar is broken. This is very annoying when typing. Should I

1. Attempt to take the key out and fix the problem.

2. Pay money to get this fixed (how much would this be?)

Clean the spunk out from under it, there's a good lad.

Can anyone tell me if it is absolutely certain that the Megabus between Glasgow and Aberdeen will have a bog on board? I might have to get one but hate long distance coach travel and the return journey with a hangover could well lead to a chunder.

If I remember correctly only the double decker ones have a bog and they're not used all the time (double deckers I mean). In saying that it's a few years since I got one.

Mortgages :( - I'd really appreciate some help from anybody with a bit of knowledge in the area. I've made an appointment with an advisor but won't see them until next week so any assistance in the meantime would be spot on.

My wife and I are looking to upgrade to a more family friendly house. We went to see one today, which is actually through a friend-of-a-friend kind of thing. The house is ideal. They are looking to sell quick-ish. House valued at about 200k, but willing to accept 185k. In hypothetical terms, after we sell out house , pay solicitors fees etc. we should have 30-35k as a deposit.

When getting quotes do you use the house value (200k) or the amount you have agreed (in principle) to buy at (185k)?

This will have pretty big issues in LTV percentages etc. and whether we put down a 15, 20 or 25% deposit - Ideally I'd like to keep the monthly cost down to a minimum.

If it was the 200k value, and we agree 185k, does that leave a 15k 'gap', where, if possible, I need to add 35k to the deposit to ensure a 25% deposit, therefore getting a better rate? Or do you simply use the figure you pay for the house?

I'm not too clued up on the whole mortgages business, and as stated, advice would be greatly appreciated.

Mud.

Cue you saying "Thats right, thats right, thats right, thats right".

Aaw you had to ruin my fun haha. Got someone on Facebook with it. We do it at the football in the pub. Ask some random guy "who sang tiger feet?" when they reply "mud" we all get up and start singing "That's right, that's right, that's right, that's right I really love your tiger light.

That's neat, that's neat, that's neat, that's neat,

I really love your tiger feet.

I really love your tiger feet.

Your tiger feet.

Your tiger feet

Your tiger feet."

It's childish as f**k but it's a good laugh.
