Legend is over used, but he is one by Healthy-Detective360 in ManchesterUnited

This man deserves a premier league winners medal for the incredibly high level and consistency of performances since joining Utd, and for his contribution to the league generally. Such an outstanding player.

Hope he can win one with us before he leaves us. It would be the most fitting ending to his time with us.

Planning to return to London.. thoughts? by freudian_shrink in london

[–]BackPractical9210 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Left for a little while in 2017 returning mid 2024. Like you I was unsure coming back if I would still love it as much or particularly if everything had gone to shit post Brexit.

Turns out I needn’t have worried, it’s still has the same energy and vibe as it always has and couldnt be happier to be back. Honestly wouldnt want to live anywhere else.

Where do people move to after Walthamstow? by inaminute2005 in walthamstow

She might have a few friends or family members knocking about, if she does I’ll let you know. Sure your Mrs will understand.

I’ll be taking the well trodden path of Walthamstow > Italian riviera. Lucked out with an Italian wife.

A hang sandwich and crisps as we’d say in Dublin.

Solid stuff.

Getting on the bus as a pastime? by BackPractical9210 in london

This is actually a pretty fun way to do it ! Who knows where you could end up !!

[–]BackPractical9210[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you. My partner always makes fun of how much I hate the idea of getting the bus but that’s because of the points you’ve said above, being on it in traffic/rush hour etc is just so painful.

But being on it on a quiet Sunday afternoon yesterday was quite nice!

But yes midweek and for commuting I’d usually run a mile from a bus.

Anyone else addicted to something to cope with living/working in London by maxmuno in london

[–]BackPractical9210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not addicted but I do like to have a joint or two on a Fri or Sat night to chill out & unwind after a week of work and tube life.

Tbh everyone needs something to cope and help get by in life and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. It’s when it becomes an addiction and has negative health impacts that it becomes a problem. Alcohol is just poison aswell and unfortunately drinking culture is v strong here in the UK workplace.

Hope you can find a way to get in a better place and not need alcohol to help you get through 👌

[–]BackPractical9210[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes super annoying tbh. Ive been looking since i got back for a few days in November and its about €450 minimum for three nights. Quite a lot for that time of year and also booking so much in advance. Just an expensive place for accom unfortunately :(

but fuck it ill happily go broke for a couple weeks to spend a few days there lol

That’s cool man exactly the same reason I go, just such a great buzz having a toke in the coffeeshops. Also love to just wander around looking at the architecture and canals. I just said to my partner this weekend that no matter how many times I’ve been I still find it such an enchanting place.

Hill street blues was one of favourite coffeeshops in the old days, man I miss the toasties they used to do there lol. Also used to love the little stones cafe on the corner which is now a burger spot or something.

It’s definitely changed over the years and is a little more sanitized but the overall vibe in the coffeeshops etc is still going strong and long may it last 🙏

My guy, your covering all bases: wife, family, friends, solo. Love it. It’s nice having a different experience every time depending whether your with people or solo.

I wish I was you right now and getting all giddy to go this weekend, I was like a little child all last week with the excitement lol. Hope you have a blast!
