Question About Improving Sound Insulation

Just curious to know if there is any way to soundproof a flat that is more than 20 years old. If so, what options are available how would the work be carried out and approximately how much would it cost

I’m on the third floor and if someone plays the piano on the first floor, it sounds as though it’s being played in the next room. Even the sound of water running in the en-suite bathroom can be heard from the lounge. That’s the level of sound transmission we’re experiencing at the moment.

Transfer Tug-of-War: CSK and KKR Eye Hardik Pandya

It seems CSK is keen to secure Hardik according to the news in NDTV. My opinion even if we onboard him we may release one of the key player before the next auction. Is this effort really required when we have only one year left for mega auction.

The Importance of Dakshina in Horoscope Readings – Seeking Insights

I have heard from some people and also come across YouTube videos suggesting that one should not have their horoscope read without offering some form of dakshina (fees) to the astrologer for their time and service.

However, I often feel tempted to share my chart when I come across offers for free readings. If I receive responses through such free readings, would those readings still be considered effective considering I am getting the service free of charge

Kindly note that reddit usually suggests posting questions across various subgroups to improve visibility and gather diverse perspectives, so I will be doing the same in the hope of receiving more insights.

Indigo (Norse) Heathrow to Mumbai Business class - clarification

Does the IndiGo flight from London to Mumbai (and vice versa) offer a true business class experience with fully flat lie down seats like some other airlines, or is it more of an upgraded seating option similar to premium economy with extra legroom/stretch space. If anyone has flown on this route, could you please clarify their experience

Jaguar - Recommendation for Future

UK - We currently have a Jaguar F-PACE with 1.5 years remaining on the PCP agreement and we’re in a bit of a dilemma about what our next vehicle should be.

We’d ideally like to stay with Jaguar, but we’re concerned about the practicality of moving to an EV. Our flat doesn’t have a charging point, so we would need to rely on public charging facilities such as petrol stations or Tesco car parks. We also understand that future Jaguar EV models may be priced around £100,000, which is a significant consideration.

Another option is to keep our existing F-PACE once the PCP agreement ends and the finance is settled. However, we’re wondering what the long-term outlook is for spare parts availability and repairs, particularly if Jaguar reduces support for older models or if the vehicle sustains any damage in the future.

As we’re approaching retirement, we’d prefer a straightforward and affordable monthly payment arrangement rather than a large upfront expense. At the same time, we’d rather not move away from the Jaguar brand if possible.

We’d appreciate any advice on the most sensible option given these circumstances. Anyone in similar position.

Half of Sani dasa over and remaining half under Sade sathi

I started my Shani Dasa in 2016, and since then life has mostly been a period of deep learning and transformation. Many people I once considered close friends are no longer part of my life, and I’ve come to understand the true nature of relationships and people around me. There were setbacks in my career and significant financial debts, but at the same time I was fortunate to receive my permanent residency and also find a path toward clearing those debts. Despite the hardships, I remain grateful for the lessons and growth these experiences have brought me.

Now, with around 9 years of Shani Dasa remaining including nearly 7.5 years of Sade Sathi, and close to 3 years under Rahu Bhukthi I often wonder what areas of life I need to be especially mindful about. After Shani Dasa, Mercury Mahadasha will begin, with Mercury placed retrograde in the 3rd house. I am an Aquarius lagna with Saturn placed in the 6th house.
