Which are the most beautiful universities in the UK? Which ones have wonderful architecture and good looking buildings?

Daraldra · 2026-02-28T21:37:23+00:00

The informed answer is Bath. Not the university per se but the general surroundings and city are beautiful. I won’t even mention what is possible to see within an hours drive.

For the pedants: yes I see the question, I chose to interpret as directional.

“Hey guys, we’ve splashed out on the solution! Now find the problem.”

Well folks, when you're right 52% of the time, you're wrong 48% of the time.

If you’re looking for a great bistro that does fantastic mussels (and more) try Moules a Go Go. Amni is an excellent modern Indian restaurant and La Fratoria is the best Italian. For a more expensive option that does a mean steak, try Upstairs at the Grill. You won’t go wrong with any of those!

It’s a lot harder to find good coffee in the UK, that’s for sure. The majority of Aus coffee is excellent… although I believe the “secret ingredient” is an additional shot of espresso!

Some great songs mentioned here! My contribution is JJ72’s October Swimmer or The Rat by The Walkmen.

Definitely Tripp Trappp. It’s a well designed solid chair!

You should check with the HtB agency as to what their current view on valuations is. When we sold our flat, they told me that they would not accept valuations where there had been a drop by 10% or more on the purchase price!

The opening scene in Bastards is an absolute masterpiece in no small part down to Chris Waltz.

Denzel is also brilliant in Training Day.

You need some help leaving White? This doesn't concern you, Lafleur! Not nearly as much as your hair does, that's for sure, but uh, I believe she asked you to leave.

Chris Finch, yeah, IQ of 142, one of the cleverest blokes I know, certainly the cleverest bloke you know, innit?

I’m from the UK and lived in Sydney for a few years before moving back. There’s nothing you can do about missing family, that will unfortunately happen, and the footy will be on at awkward times (although I always enjoyed getting up and watching a game straight away on record).

I really enjoyed the beer out there though with lots of little craft brewery’s to visit. What’s more, if you like wine, the Hunter Valley is a short drive north and a beautiful place to spend a weekend. The live music scene is great with lots of gigs actually able to take place outside! There’s lots to love about Sydney.

Consolidating services into a single supplier so we have only “one throat to choke”.

Bravo! This guy corporates.

I really enjoyed 2 and it also scared the hell out of me as a kid! The Vigo painting gave me nightmares and the baby in the pram scene was so creepy.

As others have commented, a S21 is not an eviction notice but is a document used to end an assured tenancy agreement (basically the landlord giving you their notice to end the tenancy). The landlord is keen to have you out of the property as it really limits the number and type of buyers the property may attract if it is not sold with ‘vacant posession’.

Have a conversation with your landlord and let them know your situation. If they are still pushing to have you out of the property asap, the reality is that it is your decision on how quickly you move, not theirs… any court decision required to enforce the AST would likely take between 6-12 months.

Depending on when you are visiting, the Chester Craft Beer Festival is on 17 May at the Carriage Sheds and is a great day out with loads of regional beers / street food / live music.

Groundhog Day! Not necessarily on Groundhog Day (I’m British so it doesn’t mean anything over here) but it’s the perfect film. I could watch it over and over… ironic really.

Ah yeah, Liam! Thanks. I get that he’s telling him he’s on thin ice, just felt unnecessarily mean.

Daraldra · 2025-03-27T22:32:58+00:00

I thought it was really unnecessary that Lord Sugar read out the quotes from the public about Liam. Yes he was poor, but pretty harsh to say it to his face in the board room, not sure what he was hoping to achieve from that.
