That option doesn't cut it any more Jordan

, they cracked down on that.
Gawk, why was it refused? PM me if you'd rather keep it private. There may be grounds for an appeal (for example if it was an administrative error on her part).

Fiance visa is easy so long as you have money, she'd have to apply from the US though AFAIK which wouldn't really fly - though turnaround time is ironically about 100 times as fast when applying from outside the country.

The "
family of a settled person" route can be done from within the UK and doesn't require quite as much commitment as the fiancé visa. This is what we did (although it was called an unmarried partner visa then).

Looks like the fiance visa has been merged into that route as well actually.

need to rent a place for a weekend at the start of march. needs to sleep 12-14 people (could have a couple on the floor). Ideally not more than a 2hr drive from bristol (but also not a huge mission from london).
Airbnb options limited as a few people dont wanna drop more than £50 / half the places are located next to other properties with normies living in and we plan to make a lot of noise
any other places we should be looking other than airbnb?

Is deep heat the best thing to use on a tight thigh muscle? Better alternatives out there?

Yeah it would.
Hope you don't plan to go to America.

Been a while since I dealt with them but it's called a DBS check now, and it may come up depending on the type (enhanced).
Find out and bear in mind they may ask you to declare anything separately to getting a check, wording they use is relevant if you are asked this.
Finally, check if you can find out if that particular offence would bar you from the job/role.

Got a 2nd stage interview as a legal indemnity underwriter but I've always worked in non-standard property market. They'll expect me to have read up on it and I know almost fuck all. Anyone point me in the direction of some good reading material?

Anyone have much experience in selling collectible watches?
Looking to shift one, want to get a good price but also want to minimise transaction costs.

Depends what it is. But if you're trying to shift something without going through normal selling routes, people will ask questions. So expect any buyer to want to have it authorised by a legitimate reseller or dealer.

Cheers - it's one of the Chopard Mille Miglia watches. What I meant is that I don't want some dealer taking me for a ride/lowballing me, nor do I want to pay through the nose in commission going through an auction house.
Pretty green to all this, so would welcome any suggestions. Thanks
