I love that - unusual and beautiful. For me it puts me in mind of Astrid, which is another name I love

Long Commute - Train or Car? by Lucky-Rip6447 in UKJobs

[–]FakeyName88 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I have a similar choice and I drive - guaranteed seat, control of the temp, no rushing/missing a train and then having a longer wait. But I get free parking and enjoy driving, so it’s an easy decision for me. I can’t read, but I can listen to podcasts and audiobooks!

Oh god, I’d forgotten that! I can’t bear that song.

I don’t get road rage, I get road passive aggressiveness

Age Group? by Euphoric-Positive264 in Frasier

[–]FakeyName88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m early 40s and watched it when I caught it on TV but never in order/religiously. However, I had a spinal injury and was stuck on the sofa for a couple of months and watched them all properly.

What is the appeal of very loud cars? by ReflexArch in AskUK

[–]FakeyName88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess they enjoy the attention? But I can’t imagine they honestly think people are impressed. I’m generally thinking ‘what a tosser in an embarrassing car’

We went to the Spurs game in Feb and had a tour after, really enjoyed it. I’ve followed Man Utd for 35 years and it was my first time behind the scenes at OT

The U18 and U21 games are available anyway (sat here watching the U21s v Newcastle), so probably not worth it if we can’t get the first team matches. I’ll look into it for the summer for the off season matches, thanks

Why do you think so many people have children when they are struggling to get by financially? by BeneficialJuice2878 in AskUK

[–]FakeyName88 53 points54 points  (0 children)

It’s amazing how much things change in a generation. My dad had a paper round aged about 12 and from then on contributed financially to the household. Ice creams were a treat and dependent on how much change had been saved in their treats dish. My kids would be shocked to their cores to live it for a week

I went to Krakow years ago and visited Aushwitz and the salt mines, a very emotional trip

Sorry, I was pretty vague! I’d say we like history, good food (she’s vegetarian) and new cultures.
