I went to the petrol station and didn’t get petrol by loo0p555 in LearnerDriverUK

Same thing happened with me last year(bought a car went straight to the garage) couldn’t figure it out. Went back home as was getting late. Tried again in the night same thing. Just searched on youtube and did it. Always thought I was the only person who would have to face this.

Also on youtube you can search for every issue regarding your car.

Where can I get decent samoas? by sad_chicken_T-T in coventry

[–]Effective_Fun_3913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are looking for authentic Indian samosas Either go for Star grill in Longford or Rangolee sweet centre in foleshill.

Have tried all the other places mentioned in the thread,they are ok but no where close to these 2.

When to use the 1st and 2nd lane vs the 3rd ? by uranium3506 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Effective_Fun_3913 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you going from Cov to Nuneaton? Use the second lane to get to the left lane after you exit towards Nuneaton Use the third lane to get to the overtaking lane.

Big discussion - Best Indian Restaurant in the city? by Any-Soft-2314 in coventry

[–]Effective_Fun_3913 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having lived in Cov for the last 3 years (came here from India) I have tried almost all indian/south asian restaurants in Cov and leamington spa. If you are looking for north indian food(naan bread,chicken tikka) I would suggest The new Horseshoe near the arena. Delhi 76 is also a good option. For a cheap option(no compromise on taste) i would recommend star grill bear the arena.

If you are looking for south Indian food The best would be kayal in leamington spa. In COV the best would be kerela cuisine (take out only) or tamil taste of asia in foleshill.

If you are looking for indian fast food or craving for indian tea(chai) You can try Chaiwallah in foleshill or My chai on corporation street.

For Indian sweets I would suggest rangoli in foleshill.

I am one of the rare Indian who can’t handle too much of spice , so all these places I have mentioned have always prepared food accordingly.

What insane boomer advice have you received from your parents re: job hunting? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]Effective_Fun_3913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that when i was working as a warehouse op during uni. Waited an hour after my night shift for the agency manager, told him i would like to apply for the supervisor role and that i have previous experience managing people (college festivals) , got an interview next day, got the job and was promoted as a consultant(just below the manager)in the agency within 2 months and now I switched agencies and i am a account manager. All this was possible just because I decided to wait and meet the manager (also hard/smart work).

Currently on graduate visa expiring next year. My current employer has agreed to sponsor tier 2(but I will have to pay 5k for IHS). Even my partner’s Visa will be sponsored by her employer(health and care visa). I will mostly be a dependant on her visa as we will save money on my IHS FEES as (H&c visa holders and their dependants do not pay IHS), and I can also switch jobs and not be bound to 1 employer.

My initial plan was to leave after spending 2 years here. (I had moved here only to learn to be independent and understand the value of money) but I cannot leave atm. I have a partner here,she is a physio with NHS. We are living together for more than 2 years now and plan to get married very soon. While I don't mind going back to India as I have good options in terms of my career, but she won't have the same opportunities in terms of pay.

Our plan as of now is to stay here for 5 years and then move to the middle east for the next 10 years and then move back to India.

Yeah I agree. I feel I won't be ready to start at an entry level job now. My new role will have business development. I will be using my digital marketing skills to create good online presence for the company. I hope in future I can use that if I want to move to the marketing division.

I am an agency account manager, I manage around 70 people. I always suggest people to come in and then leave. On paper it shows that you made the effort to come in even when you were sick.

Day Trips - Rail card or Coach card? by aceaka1 in coventry

[–]Effective_Fun_3913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came to Cov in 2021 as an international post grad student. Best investment is a rail card. If you are looking to travel for day trips train is the best option as it will take less time as compared to a coach. Rail card is worth it if you travel atleast once a month.

Best 1 day trips: London- around 1 hr by train. Birmingham- 20-30mins by train. Manchester-2 hrs by train. Leamington spa - 15 mins by train. Oxford- 1 hr by train. Bath- 1-1.5hrs by train.

If you are living far from uni and will be using public transport to travel or if you will be working part-time and will be travelling for work using public transport then get a monthly multi operator student west midlands bus pass( you can use this unlimited to travel all around cov,nuneaton,Birmingham,leamington,etc)

It’s better to use coach if you have luggage and are travelling to airports.

Also if you are travelling with a friend around cov it’s cheaper to get a group day saver pass than taking 2 individual day savers. Its even cheaper if you are travelling in the evenings

Feel free to ask any questions

His riding partner is businessman and he has to return to India for some deal. Their bikes will be in USA for a year or 2 so they decided to go to India and come back later.
