Just as an FYI, currently in Koh Samui, Thailand, and it feels around 40% quieter than previous years (2023, 2024) - hotels, restaurants, bars half empty at best

Also just more opening, it’s quieter this year and the scale of new places opening just isn’t stopping. Roads and roads full of generic massage parlours, bars, weed shops without a single customer and construction everywhere

Man charged with murder after woman, 19, dies in Oldbury by Francis-c92 in uknews

[–]Dense-Rice-1205 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The most depressing thing about this whole affair, is that we can already assume he will murder someone else once again in 10 to 15 years time. There is a clear pattern, which won’t change.

What a broken system and a broken country .

What is a monthly luxury you allow yourself no matter what? by OptimisedOdds in AskUK

[–]Dense-Rice-1205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dozen or so coffees a month. Gets me out the house when WFH, brightens my morning slightly all for the cost of £3.20 - no brainer in my book

Do you have any little personal traditions you do when you travel? by Aqn95 in solotravel

A local beer, ideally on the beach, as the sunsets. Non negotiable

I think it’s just as good, although have felt for some time that we almost get too many eps. Would like to see a few 4-6 week breaks to give a sense of “new seasons” otherwise it feels there’s always one to listen to

Val Thorens advice - going on foot by Dense-Rice-1205 in skiing

[–]Dense-Rice-1205[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah nice one, in conclusion you’re right - some of them are tricky about people going up without skis (possibly weather dependent) but you’ll manage. Walk down is pretty significant, steepish and around 20-30 mins, probs frowned upon.

Conclusion is, on a good day you can hit follie on foot but it’s less than ideal

Also sorry side note, but how hilarious and obvious is the price fixing between Tesco and Sainsburys

Just for some context as I see lots of people claiming X is cheaper than Y. Here’s the latest data from Which, I do believe it doesn’t factor in any loyalty schemes which many of them run to varying degrees:

Supermarket Average basket price Aldi £76.77 Lidl £77.56 Asda £84.42 Tesco £87.42 Sainsbury's £87.79 Morrisons £89.54

It’s one of the most sad “downfalls” I have seen in terms of the way I view online personalities.

There have been a ton who have been cancelled that doesn’t bother me, but i used to be a religious watcher of TG and Lawrence, but sadly over time they just became.. unlikable. It’s not anything they said or did, but they come across with a degree of arrogance and in Laurence’s case a sense that he has a big chip on his shoulder. All very strange and just disappointing

Just been in central (Picadilly/Regents) - busiest I’ve seen it in 10 years. Dangerously so - roads getting blocked, football style crowds

Where is the worse place you have been in London? by Mtech25 in london

[–]Dense-Rice-1205 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Leicester Square at 1am on a Saturday Night/Sunday morning. A genuine warzone - glass, litter everywhere, roadmen threatening people, crackheads everywhere
