Has anyone had experience with moving within the UK via pod or container delivery? Any advice, either in how to proceed or what companies are good/bad?

I MADE RICE TONIGHT in my instant pot by putting 1 (one) cup of rice and 1 (one) cup of water in a metal bowl which I sat on top of my sauce which I'd already cooked in the instant pot and then pressure cooked it all for 5 minutes. Nice fluffy rice, no water left, easy peasy.

Lot of chat about the euromillions at work today. Keep meaning to remember to win that

If one hypothetically did come into a hundred million quid what would be the best way to use it for the benefit of the most people? Part of me feels as though the most efficient way would be to have a WhatsApp number or something that's just 'text me whatever you need paying and I'll sort it no questions asked'. But then it's open to Mr snrub types so you'd need them to provide proof and then you're still holding your money over people's heads

Could you set up some sort of sex ghost foundation for good lads and lasses but since I'm very stupid and don't understand the investments required to keep the fund going I would require outside help and that would turn it into every other lovely charity that works to enrich itself

You could theoretically set up some sort of political action group but that feels a bit lib dem 'just vote!' for my tastes

Is the answer really just driving around Mario balotelli style and just handing out notes to people on the street

My "if I won the Euromillions" pick after sorting out myself and my family and friends is I'd buy this derelict office block at the end of my street (which a local kid fell off and died recently), turn it into decent flats and make them available to homeless or otherwise precarious people at a peppercorn rent to enable them to get their poo poo together with a safe place to be and an address etc. No obligation to move out at any particular point.
