u/Ok-Present4524

Having recently slept in the back of my small car whilst traveling through scotland i have realised i need something more suited for the job. so I'm planning on building a trailer but not sure where to start. Im UK based and would rather start a build from scratch but use a second hand trailer chassis as the base. My car can only tow up to 800kg on a braked axle. im 6ft2 and a large guy so would need as much space as possible. What size frame or chassis should i be looking at idealy. i have a welder so could make adaptations to the chassis but i dont want to make a chassis from scratch as i believe i would then need to take it to get tested here in the uk but i might have to do that anyway im not really sure. anyone can offer assistance or advise it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey all new round here and would be more than greatfully for any tips or advice.

So my parents and I want to create a Ltd company that makes and sells baked goods ie cake bread and pastries along with chocolate. I myself am a chef so know all food hygine and eho regulations but never run or started a business before and neither have my parents.

for context I'm in my late 20s and my parents are in their mid 60s

I'm currently living with my parents however I am looking at moving out and renting my own place. we have always had the dream to start our own bakery or tea room ever since I took a liking to baking. so I did the right thing and studied at catering college and specalised in patisserie in my final year.

having worked in the industry since I was 15 I have learnt alot and now want to put my own products on the market to be sold at farmers markets abd sold to local coffee shops and cafes.

my issues is I want my parents to be the main owners of the business as although I know what I'm doing in the kitchen I have no idea how to run a business and believe that once I'm up and running and have built a customer base that I could then start to focus more on the running of the business side and take over as main director. but for insurance reasons and money reasons I want my parents as sole directors/owners of the business. (I don't have siblings so should the worse ever come in the future I would I inherit the business myself)

my question is if my parents were to register the business under the name (sweet treats and bakes ltd) for example could they then employee me (as a sole trader) to make the goods from my own flat kitchen if its been singed off by food hygine and registered with the local council. and if soo would I have to register the kitchen under thier business name or my own self employed /sole trader name. I know that I can run a food business from home if registered and approved by the local council food hygiene but as I would be working for someone as a self employed person.

the idea being that I produce all the food myself but it's sold under my parents company. I know it's long winded and I could just have the business in my name but I am in no perdition to be listed as a owner or director and I would rather them have the main say and control the money side of things.

Thanks in advice and if any questions need to be asked ask away and I'll try to answer best I can.

also I already own all the equipment and tools I would need to run the kitchen so wouldn't be relying on my parents Ltd company to provide them just the ingredients.

Hey all. I'm going to Edinburgh at the end of the month for a few days and was planning on sleeping in my car however I may change this and take a 2 man tent with. Any susgestions on any good spots near Edinburgh or within 45mins. idealy not too far in the hills as would like to be as close to my car as possible but that's about it. I may venture out further too after the first two nights just need to be close to Edinburgh for two nights and then the rest can be a bit further a field.

​

was looking at campsites but I haven't been wild camping in a while so more than happy to get back out there.

​

Cheers in advance.

hey all I have had issues with the hot water pressure in the kitchen. hot water tank is upstairs (two story semi-detached house. I have really low pressure in the kitchen but it's much faster upstairs. I have changed the tap unit and had no luck either. I have tried to see if there is air in the system by placing my thumb over the tap and turning hot water on to back flow again no luck. as I say the shower pressure and the taps upstairs are fine no pressure issuses I don't have a shower pump either.

​

we don't have a combi boiler and don't particularly want to up grade to one either.

​

I'm looking at replacing the bath with a enclosed shower later this year and I'm just looking at what else I should include in my budget.

​

also to note I have check the valves to make sure their open between the tap and the boiler and all seem to be fully open.

​

Any recommendations or advice or tips to try would be greatly appreciated the water does come through hot eventually but think that it takes longer to come through hot as the pressure is soo low.

​

Thanks in advance

hey all new to radios I have 2 uv5rs that I plan to use for airsoft here in the uk.
