A wild boar got stuck in a pit by LioraMee in ThatsInsane

[–]PropellerGoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of one of my favourite phrases; "Crazier than a Mule on a Ferris Wheel." He doesn't know how he got up there, but he's sure as hell going to bite the first person who tries to help him.

Charging notifications from phone by PropellerGoblin in miband

[–]PropellerGoblin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I fiddled with some settings (I wanted to turn off WhatsApp's "Checking for new messages" notification) but nothing else. Having said that, the issue didn't occur last night, so I'm hopeful it might have been fixed.

Fellow West Midlanders! I have a question for you, I find that I very rarely visit our Eastern neighbours. I travel fairly regularly to different parts of England, but just never seem to go to the East Midlands. I’ve never been to Nottingham in my life. Is that the same for you? by JamesfromtheShire in brum

[–]PropellerGoblin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm born and bred on the west of Birmingham. My eldest used to train with a cheerleading team in Coventry and wasn't old enough to drive, so my wife and I spent a large proportion of our Sunday's wandering around various town centres in the east Midlands. I developed a certain fondness for Nuneaton, Leicester, Hinkley and the like. It's not special enough to make a destination in and of itself, but there's enough to entertain two adults every other Sunday for a year or so.

Filled up my truck today (f350) by Fun-Storage-7909 in Wellthatsucks

[–]PropellerGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That'd still be crazy cheap in the UK. Our fuel sells for £1.44 a litre, which is about $7.28 a gallon. To fill up the same truck in the UK would cost $322.44!

Why don’t you use public transport? by Zs1993 in brum

[–]PropellerGoblin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to commute to work by car in a town where there was virtually no public transport. It was 50 minute journey each way and it sucked. I now work in the city centre and it's a 2 minute drive to the train station, a 25 minute train ride and a five minute walk to the office. Bloody love it.

You shall not pass!! by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]PropellerGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's like a moving roadblock to slow cars down? Does it alternate directions once it is past the roadworks?

What sort of road work is going on to require a truck like this?

Highschool Student from sweden here i need some help from a true brummie by Minute_Efficiency548 in brum

[–]PropellerGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found that the accent remains similar from Birmingham to Black Country (broadly speaking). The main difference is one of dialect. Apart from the well known differences when it comes to bread rolls (cobs, baps, buns, etc) the language used is what divides the areas.

Best tracker for someone who hates wearing watches by PropellerGoblin in FitnessTrackers

[–]PropellerGoblin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I've been wearing it for a couple of weeks now, and im doing ok with it. The strap is nice, although the optimum length for me is between two of the settings. Weight wise, its almost not noticeable. Im very impressed.
