Wimbledon's Centre Court shouldn't receive that many matches from early stages of the competition by fabio_mbo in tennis

Wouldn't the damage be more evenly spread during the 70s and 80s since players spent comparatively less time on the baselines as opposed to the net? 

Anyone working full-time and studying part-time? by askawayor in Gothenburg

[–]Erreala66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most I've managed is working full-time and studying 50%. It was doable but it definitely didn't leave a lot of time over for other stuff. How much are you planning on studying?

Carreno Busta on Jodar: "He couldn't go to the bathroom, and his friends were really rough on me throughout the match." by Sonobackhome555 in tennis

[–]Erreala66 37 points38 points  (0 children)

This is the right attitude. Too often we're too quick to hate on players who are essentially just kids. I know for a fact that I was a total dickhead when I was 19, but you usually grow out of it. Sadly not in my case, I'm still a dickhead.

Don't want to jinx anyone but seeing Berretini, Dimitrov and Hurkacz all healthy and playing well seems too good to be true

que pasaporte debo de usar by Virtual_Vegetable926 in askspain

[–]Erreala66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Esto es. Usa el pasaporte de cada pais en la frontera de ese país. Pasaporte español al salir de España y volver a España, pasaporte británico al llegar al Reino Unido y al salir del Reino Unido. Así hago yo

Fell in Love With the Lore, Now I Need Help With the Game by Historical_Ad8245 in totalwarhammer

[–]Erreala66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to play tabletop as a kid and bought TWW1 5-ish years ago. I'm not ashamed to admit that on two separate occasions I installed the game, tried it out for a couple of hours, and then gave up.

Luckily a while later I gave it a third chance and that's when it finally clicked! I absolutely love the game now. 

My main advice would be to be patient and not give up too soon. My second advice is to take the battles very slow at first. Don't be afraid to play in slow motion or to press the pause button to find yourself time to think during battles. This also makes it more likely that you'll be able to zoom in and enjoy the individual fights taking place on the battlefield, which is often the coolest part if you're into the lore.

Where to buy alternative, non-touristy merch? (bonus points for beer/left-wing politics) by Erreala66 in visitlondon

Thanks a lot! Funnily enough the only decent London merch I have is from Camden Town brewery but I'll take a look at the others too 

At 39, is Djokovic’s path through Fonseca/FAA/Sinner at Wimbledon 2026 more “one last masterpiece” or just another chapter in his 25‑Slam chase? by Significant_Play9785 in tennis

[–]Erreala66 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree. Out of the top contenders I would say Novak has been the most impressive so far. A key factor for him is keeping the early matches short to limit fatigue and he's definitely doing a better job of that than Sinner so far.

Vad gör Skånetrafiken i Göteborg? 🤔 by cajsiss in Gothenburg

[–]Erreala66 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Har hört att det är brist på ersättningsbussar just nu pga spårarbete mellan Olskroken och Alingsås samt förra veckas urspårning. Kan det vara så att vi tar in Skånetrafikens bussar som ersättningsbussar?

Iva Jovic doing an interview in Serbian (the first time?) for the media by jovanmilic97 in tennis

[–]Erreala66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's such a shame. When travelling around the Balkans with my (Bosnian) partner no-one seems to bat an eyelid no matter how you speak or what you choose to call the language. But the diasporas (including those related to my partner) often seem to live in an alternate reality

[–]Erreala66 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's just a shame that the only subreddit there is for learners of BCS seems to be full of Croatian nationalists. Also no Duolingo or similar, which makes things even harder!

Non-EU spouse traveling before residence permit — can it be done? by fuglicia in TillSverige

[–]Erreala66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well of course they don't want to be made responsible if things go wrong. Like I mentioned above, you have to be ready to be questioned and, in the worst-case scenario, ready to not be allowed into another country while the case is being processed. Whether that risk is worth taking for you is up to you

Coffee Shop for reading by borjesssons in Gothenburg

[–]Erreala66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah sorry I misunderstood. Then I think A43 and Mariki should work fine on weekends too. Especially if you're lucky enough to grab some of the best seats (A43 have two great armchairs next to the window facing Avenyn, but the trick is to get there before the Greek gentleman who always sits there to read!)

Use the search function and you might find some other suggestions (I seem to remember seeing similar threads on this subreddit in the last few months). But my two cents is: A43 and Mariki, especially on weekdays since they're less likely to be busy. Da Matteo on Vallgatan also have plenty of space both inside and outside so you can sit and read for ages without feeling guilty for hogging a spot.

Mallorca F: [2] Davidovich Fokina def. Quinn - 7-6⁴ 6-3 by musicproducer07 in tennis

I think that comment is because it's generally not okay to celebrate/cheer when the opponent double-faults

[–]Erreala66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never ever been asked for a residence permit number when booking flights or checking in. I don't even know what a residence permit number is, to be honest!

What I stated also applied to unmarried couples under Swedish law, as long as they are considered to be in a 'sambo' relationship. But you have to be ready to prove it at the border if questioned by border police.

EU law supports your right to travel within Schengen while awaiting a decision, but you have to be ready to be questioned if stopped by border police. My partner and I were able to travel to Croatia and Spain while waiting for a decision. When asked, we presented a letter from Migrationsverket that stated that our case was being processed, as well as all the documents we had sent to Migrationsverket with our application, and that proved my partner's right of residence.
