the base model? It's only £499 in the UK with edu discount. If you know anyone who has a student card or university staff ID, flash it at the till and bob's your uncle.

Gonna get a new M4 Pro, worth upgrading to the nano screen or not? I used to love their matt screen but over the years, I have grown to like the gloss screen. I do a fair bit of photo and video editing, but a lo of the time I use my external monitors anyway.

Even better price wise! :-)

Has anyone tried this instead of mixing your own mist coat? I want to use Little Greene for a couple of the rooms and at £99/5L, I am not making any mist coat out of it and don't have any leftove cheap paint lying around. So thinking maybe buy a primer would be easier.
Not too concnered about the cost as it's only a few quids difference.

I am just basing my surprised on his other quotes, for example, he changed me £105 + parts to install a new socket that includes lifitng the carpet, floorboard, making a hole on some brick walls, wiring etc. It was only a year ago. Maybe his overhead has gone up. I am in no way suggesting he is a cowboy, because he always spends time going throgh options with me. We have a cowboy living on our street who always want at least twice of what everyone else quotes for and has gradually fallen out with everyone.
Yes, he always does test and send paperwork/cert if required by law the following day.

Ideally, I'd get him in for a whole day, easier for both parties and I do have some other work, but those rooms are not ready. Guess just have to suck it up.

Just wanted to sense check, I need to repalce my bathroom fan, at the moment it is controlled with a pull cord. I want to replace with one that is controlled by the light switch. My sparky has quoted £175 labour + additional materials not including the fan itself. So the additional materials are things like cables and couduit etc. So he needs to wire the new fan into the loft and add an isolator outside of the bathroom and also replace the vent on the outside wall. Is £175 reasonable? His date rate is £265 and hourly rate is £50. This can't be half a day's work, can it?
Had this once a long time ago for my own machine, an Apple store will only unlock it for you if you can proof you are the owner of the machine and proof of ID. If your dad has given it to you then I am guessing the ownership has not been offically transferred. I am not actually sure how the transfer of ownership actually works, I guess it's whatever the Apple ID the machine is logged in with...
