#journorequest before my nine-hour (!) bus journey today: I'm looking for case study of someone who bought a home and then found out it was a flood risk.

And a case study of someone who undertook a survey that showed climate risk and still bought it.

Hey, I am looking for your questions around pensions for next week’s Money Box Live. Maybe you’re 18 and wondering what age to start, maybe you’re 50 and getting a bit anxious. Maybe you want to check your investments are ethical. Maybe something else entirely! Email me felicity.hannah@bbc.co.uk

Any tips on good community group platforms? My courses are currently on Thinkific & I have Facebook groups. Want to have an alternative to using Facebook. Heard good things about Heartbeat. Any recommendations?

Every time I see a talking head video I just think 'great lighting' and then move on. Anyone else feel left behind in a supposedly video-first social world. I like words.

Took some time to think about it but feel ready to get going and crack on.

Ok, so need some help. My first novel is coming in Feb (it's been cooking away for years) with themes of social media, parent-child trauma and video game toys. I'm ready to send out galleys for review, but don't have a strong book/writer/reviewer network. Who should I send it to? Shares welcome.
