Looking for some advice about boilers

2 Upvotes

My combi boiler has packed up, it makes horrible noises and I’ve turned it off and isolated it.

How do you go about replacing them? Is it best to save up the £3-4k you need and buy outright or can you get it on credit?

I also have a broken radiator thermostat in the livingroom can I get that fixed at the same time?

Does anyone have any plumbers they would recommend for this? Should I use one of the big energy companies?

Struggling to make friends

12 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I’ve lived in Dundee for around a year now and I’m finding it hard to make friends. I’ve downloaded the app ‘meet up’ but it doesn’t seem to be very popular in Dundee.

What are other ways to meet people here? I’ve sort of lost interest in a lot of things as I’ve found it l to just be quite lonely. I’m 22 female. Thank you

What's with the increasing amount of nutters in Dundee?

52 Upvotes

I swear I can't walk through the city centre without seeing 2-3 crazy people either arguing with a wall or trying to fight an invisible man! A few weeks ago I had a verbal altercation with a woman at the bus stops in the Seagate who was trying to pull her trousers down in broad daylight in front of everyone! I told her to pull her trousers up especially as there's kids everywhere and she picked up her bottle of Lambrini like she was gonna lamp me with it!

Everyone's just awkwardly walking by pretending it's not happening where as I feel like in days gone by these people would've been bundled into a van and given the help they need? It is entertaining at times, I'll give them that, but it feels like there's more and more of these crazy people walking around these days.

Butteries

4 Upvotes

I'm in withdrawal... I need to taste some butteries, but I'm in Hampshire :(

I usually eat the supermarket ones, without the lard.. but recently found out they were all full of Palm Oil, which I don't particularly want.

Question is - is there any brand of butteries available to order online that are made with actual butter, or at least to a non-lard, non-palm oil recipe?

Listed Building - local builder /joiner recommendations?

3 Upvotes

We're considering a few bits of work for a listed building in Dundee having recently moved to the area and wondered if anyone had personal recommendations? On our list we have removing an internal wall, moving a staircase, reinstating a window and reinstating an exterior doorway.

We would be hoping to have an initial discussion to explore feasibility and ball-park cost before submitting the relevant requests (planning and building warrant), but there seem to be no local forms listed on the FMB website and I don't want to take the pot-luck approach of Google. So anyone with a recent recommendation would be hugely appreciated.
