Looking out from the office, 7am one morning. OnePlus 10t.

I'm more likely to just scrap it and get in a full brand new bbq tbh. The effort probably outweighs the reward.

This is a really interesting idea. The place we are buying has an oil fired aga that we want to replace and turning it into a barbecue isn't a bad idea if it could be done...

Despite my other half being a veggie...

I'm ahead of the curve, I already installed a unisex toilet in my own home.

Bring on my socialist overlord sir Keir.... Wait...sir?

I believe there's also capital allowances in tax that can be utilities if you go install chargers in the car park.

Words are failing me.

Well like I said investment firms aren't compelled by the open banking regulation to build those API gateways but I think card providers might be... Maybe.

You're 100% right there's still a long way to go to get open banking mainstream and adopted in all areas where personal finance exists.

Monzo savings aren't included as they technically aren't accounts with support code& account number etc. It's slightly different.

I have savings accounts in the high street banks do connect in snoop but savings and investment accounts with non banks aren't forced to hook in and create open banking api's unfortunately.

You are clearly wiser than me....

Yes all via open banking plug ins.

From my understanding there's a certain element of data sharing in order to get good referral deals etc. But I would expect it to include directly identifiable information. More like our user XYZ anonymous identifier spent the following amounts with abc merchants via lmn bank.

Off the back of that the referers offer deals to tempt you in and snoop get commission if you take it out. That referral link should be able to point to snoop as source but not to which customer directly that used it.

Or I'm massively over simplifying and stupidly naive and they are all bastards. But I do work in a bank with some tangible knowledge about what can be shared etc Even if my employer isn't on the list of accounts that could be analysed. Most banks are.

The app UI is remarkably simplistic to use but pretty flexible. Suggest give it a try with just one account with a few trx in and see.

To return to some discussion a few pages back, I have been using snoop to pull in all my banking transactions and categorise them out to better understand my spending.

They have apis into all the banks i use and so far its been pretty flexible and easy to use. Even going so far as to support and predict regular monthly bills coming in.

I went for the paid version eventually once i worked out it was good enough for it and can export into csv etc for graphs and dashboards.

I could have done it all myself with csvs and spreadsheets but given I have a lot of accounts all over the place it's a lot of work to pull them all in each month and only really doable on desktop.

That was written on 21st may election was called on 22nd didn't they have a few days to rush through last minute bills. The leasehold reform bill for through on the Friday night before parliament shutdown I believe

(but obviously not that one)

Do you mean like this?

I'd offer to help but that's way outside my knowledge/skillet/comfort.

I could make the tea while you do it?....

Might get some of these for my bag

Need some of those election posters to put up in my house. While I will likely vote Labour as a tactical vote I'm more aligned to the green party tbh. So to avoid signaling which party specifically anyone know a good site for an anything but the tories poster?

Yeah I get that the mandatory bit is the hard bit to stomach.

I believe some of the Nordic countries do this public service while yoofs things. Maybe it's a few hours a week alongside studies.

I'm just outside the demographic that this would affect so actually maybe someone should be asking them what they think should happen.

The whole idea is a non starter tbh.

To be honest some version of mandatory national service but in the community only and paid placements, I could see being beneficial to society. Not military or unpaid.

However, my version wouldn't get votes in the flag waving base it's designed to appease

@Velocio when you are back from holiday, I suggest an update of opening post with current running costs. Currently mentions £690 as at Oct 2016 I think. Even if it's the same amount it'll be good for people to see the current monthly run rate.

Have chucked a little into the pot alongside the recurring to help bring the kitty up.

Good damnit

I'm fuming. Almost put on some of the videos of dead babies and hospital death pits.

Just had a fairly heated argument with the mother in law about Israel and Gaza. Her stance of Israel being justified for committing genocide and that I'm believing propaganda and what she's following is true that says the Muslims are trying to wipe Israel off the face of the earth despite 34,000 gazans dead. I was so close to shooting at her. I'm going to get it in the neck from my partner when we go up to bed but fuck that noise. I might put up with her crazy when I'm up at hers but I'm not fucking putting up with it in my own house.

That's a plot twist of the day I didn't see coming today.
