A question about : Gumtree- would you buy a phone without accessories?

I would like to buy a phone on Gumtree, seem that so many sellers are selling phones alone without chargers.

Is there any way I can tell if the phones are stolen or not?

Best answers:

• Check the imei online before buying
• plenty cheap (NEW) ones around, with chargers- avoid!

A question about : Bristol or Basildon dilemma please help

hello!

I have been offered two identical jobs, one in Bristol and the other in Basildon, for which latter I have a slight preference.

I want to settle there for many years and raise a family

I have been told (and witnessed unfortunately) that Basildon is to be a shthole

Many chavs, crime, lack of stores/conveniences/amenities. (especially in Laindon where will work)

Basildon seems a very troubled area and definatelly not an area to raise children.

A question about : Osset, Brighouse or Batley

Hi,
Im looking to relocate fromthe east of england over to around Leeds/Wakefield/Hudderfield etc for job chances as there is nothing hardly going or within good commute distance on the east coast.

I have been look at the possibility of maybe Osset (outside of Wakefield) or Brighouse (Outer area of Huddersfield - Rastick)
Was also offer Batley but a few people have advised me that Batley is much better for work than to live in.

A question about : Widnes: Food waste disposal??

I've been around a relatives today and did a mass-clearout of their kitchen foods as i recognised that about 40% of the tinned food in the cupboards were infact out of date, talking years and not weeks/months.

I was aware that we had a Veolia waste plant in the local area but after asking around it seems they won't accept actual food waste like this. Been in such a predicament about it because my car has about 10-15 carrier bags full of tinned food which is obviously weighing it down.

A question about : Watch repair in West Midlands/Online

Hi

I have a Emporio Armani Tazio Rose Tone Case Chronograph Rubber Strap watch.

I just had the battery replaced from a cheap market stall and that was the biggest mistake I made as now 2 of the front pins which serve the sub dials have literally just fallen off and fallen to the bottom. How this has happened I dont know as the market stall guy didnt even access that watch from the front, it was simply a battery replacement but clearly he has moved something which has caused this.

A question about : Free events in Camden, London

Hi everyone, my friend and I are travelling to London next weekend and wondered if there is anything on that is free?

We are travelling from Portsmouth and Edinburgh respectively and don't know the area very well. In fact last time I was in London was 10 years ago.

Can anyone suggest things we can do thats free or low cost.

Thanks
