Hi, I am getting surgery on Wednesday and I am unsure on what to stock up on. Will I be able to drink flavoured water (lemon+lime/apple+blackcurrant/mango)?? Also, what about diluting juice/cordial? Or will I have to stick to plain water?
This may be stupid, but I get my tonsillectomy next Wednesday and I was wondering were people able to talk painless after surgery? Or how long did it take?
Hi, are there any cash for clothes places around? I live in L7 and have a bin bag full of clothes to get rid of. Willing to travel a bit on the bus.
Thanks.
Hey everyone, looking for some advice/opinions on a situation with my landlord in Liverpool.
With the new Renters’ Rights Act 2025 rules that kicked in on May 1st transitioning everything to rolling periodic tenancies, I decided to give my 2 months' notice. I’ve already paid for a three-month block of rent upfront (covering April 30th to July 29th), so my notice perfectly aligns with the end of that period. I am a student and won’t be there over the summer, so the only month I’m not paying is August.
When I sent my formal notice, my landlord replied sending over a screenshot of my old contract clauses (specifically clauses 7.1.6 and 7.1.7 about "early exits," stating I'd have to find a replacement tenant or cover the rent shortfall).
I knew the new law overrode this, so I sent him this reply:
Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me and sending that extract over.
Since the new rules under the Renters’ Rights Act kicked in on May 1st, my contract automatically transitioned into a rolling periodic tenancy. Because of that change, I now have a legal right to end the agreement at any point by just giving 2 months' notice.
Since I'm giving you more than two months of notice for July 29th, I am ending my tenancy legally rather than making an early exit. This means clauses 7.1.6 and 7.1.7 about finding a replacement or covering shortfalls no longer apply to my situation, and my deposit can't be held back for that reason.
I’m planning to vacate the property on July 20th. I don't necessarily need to be there for the handover, so I can either leave the keys in a secure spot at the house such as the lockbox or post them to you —just let me know what works best for you!
Radio silence since I sent it. He completely stopped replying.
Am I 100% in the right here? I assume he’s just realised he can’t enforce those old clauses anymore, but want to make sure I haven't missed anything. Also, since he isn't replying about the key handover, what's the safest way to return them so he can't claim I didn't?
Thanks in advance!

I’ve already paid for a three-month block of rent upfront (covering April 30th to July 29th), so my notice perfectly aligns with the end of that period. My original lease is supposed to end on 29th August so I’m only leaving a month early.
