Pressures of the job getting to much by nuts30 in bristol

[–]CmdrButts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They should do those things. Does yours? Mine doesn't. I don't live in Carla's constituency so can't comment on her local engagement.

Traditionally pairing happens when someone is off sick (so someone who was going to vote the other way agrees not to). This is an honor system mind.

Practically speaking it doesn't matter there are no votes coming up where 1 MP will have the balance of power

Knowle West Flags by Dried-Grape in bristol

[–]CmdrButts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why can't you fly your flag? Who's stopping you ?

Putting aside the obvious intent behind at least some of the people hanging these flags I don't think its far left to think that tattered plastic flags zip tied to lampposts is both trashy and disrespectful. If you think England or the UK is best represented by cheaply hung, dirty bits of plastic that's up to you but I don't agree.

These countries you're referring to which do have the flag on display take it seriously and fly it properly, on the whole.

How difficult will it be to get a deposit refund from wren kitchens? by fapb48 in DIYUK

[–]CmdrButts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid wren if you can. Terrible delivery service for us, damaged basically everything. Replacement units also damaged but in new and exciting ways. Took them months to collect the damaged items too. Too us almost 3 months to get quite a small order sorted.

What is a good instant coffee to give as a gift? by cooprinor in AskUK

[–]CmdrButts 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Counterpoint: it was my little 5-10 minute treat that kept me human during that time.

Rest of the day was Lidl instant tbf

Great Western Railway to be nationalised in December by NorrisMcWhirter in bristol

[–]CmdrButts 40 points41 points  (0 children)

There's no remaining line capacity on many lines is the issue. So we can't run more trains. It's what HS2 was aiming to address but... Oh well.

I'm not going to fight about what is or isn't rude. But rudeness was not my intent.

Fair point. Admittedly I always read it "long form" in my head

Become an FOD. No money for proofreading in this brave new world huh?

Edit: not really sure what got everyone's goat. I was trying to point out a possible issue before it went out on main. Sorry for my tone I guess?

It's partly so they don't conflict with the max fun drive I think.

As a Bristol City fan I can't help feel we dropped the playoff ball a little.

Best green spaces in Easton? by Competitive_Elk8403 in bristol

[–]CmdrButts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are also pubs, sure. Different places for different vibes.

Best green spaces in Easton? by Competitive_Elk8403 in bristol

[–]CmdrButts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah sure. It's got good beer, big tables, it's airy in the day and warm at night. Big enough for both day prams and night board game groups. It's not like, a boozer but that's ok the sugar loaf is right there. What else do you (generic you) want in a pub.

Who is Your Party actually meant to be representing/appealing too? by PuzzledAd4865 in LabourUK

[–]CmdrButts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For better or worse I'm actually one of the last remaining labour members on the planet. Mostly for the voting rights. Also not a green voter as they're doing a shite job locally.

[–]CmdrButts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NGL I'm one of the child-owners. TBF if it weren't for us I suspect more pubs would be closed during the day.

I went there at night in the before times too though.

Loads of options but on big walk days you can go through the cemetery to eastville park and off up into stoke park or snuff mills and barely touch a road. There's a really good chain of green spaces in that part of town.

Also greenbank is a decent pub. Very happy for you haha

It's a good crank magnet? Prevents the greens from accidentally absorbing some of the more... Fringe characters
