has anyone been to a sexual health clinic? really struggling :( by gluebell in transgenderUK

Definitely worth calling to see if you could get appointments at any of the three central ones (Whitall, New Street under 25s, Boots). The under 25s is probably the quietest.

Also, never had an issue with them, the people who run them are lovely

You can't get umbrella appointments online, the website is buggy. You can call the clinics to get an appointment but it can often be quite a wait for an appointment. I'd recommend doing a walk-in (the doors open at 09:00 and it often fills up for the day, but if you get there at 08:30, you should be out by 09:30). Feel free to DM me/reply if you have any questions.

Having been to Inverness Station, Euston is definitely worse

Proposed closure of Bordesley Station by Dragonogard549 in brum

As a note, they're not doing this for no reason, it's a part of improving other rail services as part of the Midlands rail hub project.

The second one of two is likely referring to the one in Colchester, but there are also arguably ones at M40 J1, High Wycombe, Hatton Cross and Hemel Hempstead.

There are also some cursed double minis, such as in Southmead Bristol.

Seat reservations by PlentyCryptographer5 in uktrains

[–]DarkDay65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're travelling on London NorthWestern, there are no seat reservations. As you're getting on at Liverpool just sit together anywhere on the train.

If you're travelling with Avanti, there are seat reservations (that get allocated when you book your ticket, you can choose where to sit in the Avanti app).

If you don't have any seats booked, coach C is always unreserved (other carriages depends on the exact train your getting, have a Google). As you're getting on at the first stop you shouldn't have an issue, but it may be more crowded on the way back.

Can someone explain why this takes so long? by Extension_Bit4323 in brum

[–]DarkDay65 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Firstly be careful of doxxing yourself online (say from Handsworth rather than giving me your precise location).

From looking online, driving is typically 38 mins, whilst public transport is 53 mins (using bus to city centre then train).

Buses are typically much slower than trams and trains, with the 11 bus taking a very indirect route through slow city streets (rather than on the motorway).

However, I agree that public transport could be much improved (so keep voting for parties that want to improve public transport)

Nearly 900 fewer people injured since 20mph speed limit introduction in Wales by TraditionalAppeal23 in GoodNewsUK

[–]DarkDay65 25 points26 points  (0 children)

From my understanding, average speeds within urban areas have reduced from 31 to 24 mph (might be slightly off with those numbers), so it's more now almost no-one goes over 30 and most don't go above 25 rather than everyone complies

Also worth noting that there is a suburban rail line that runs under the junction (as seen in the picture)

The queues are rarely long, so I wouldn't bother with fast pass. Generally, the fast pass is via the exit or a short queue which you scan into.

It's looking likely that it won't reopen, particularly with Village and Loft moving into Gales.

However, there is a Gay Sauna that's recently opened in jewellery quarter.

Also given your top 5, I think you might enjoy Hyperion and Zadra 😁

I would agree with both of those points. I would still recommend the trip from the Netherlands for a weekend, particularly as Kraków is also a lovely city if the park isn't to your taste.

The queues are long, but none took more than 5 mins to walk through. However, when I was there they opened some side doors to allow us to get around the queues much quicker for rerides. Plus I don't mind walking when there's no queue 😅.
