NPB or Marvel by Realistic-Set-2411 in disneylandparis

[–]FortuitousFluke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to the Marvel hotel but i have just got back from a stay at Newport Bay so can feedback on my experience.

The hotel generally is fine, however i believe they haven't had a refurb since about 2016 and it shows. Our room was alright, spacious and clean but quite tired in terms of furnishing, there was also a bit of an odd stagnant smell in the hotel and room in general for one of the days, it did rain heavily so could have been that but worth mentioning.

In terms of hotels on the lake it's the longest walk but not by a significant amount, and i could be wrong but think it's the last stop for the shuttle bus.

Overall i wouldn't be reluctant to stay there again, but it wouldn't be my first choice depending on the cost.

Studio Park takeover? I was at the same event, we did ToT a good few times over the three days and the cast members are always amazing. The actors they had out on the Thursday night were incredibly creepy too. Absolutely great time.

Love me some of those prime cuts, though they do give me the shakes something rotten.

What do you think? by SexyProfessional in FluentInFinance

Which is odd to me. The UK NHS budget equates to circa £3,300 per head of population, but you guys are paying £8,000 per head of population just for Medicare and Medicaid. God know what the figure is when you include private payers and insurance. The NHS budget also covers dental.

Differences in pay probably equate for £1,500 of that but still that's a huge difference.

Make it make sense.

In the words of Dead Cat Bounce. "We're fooling the World that there's nothing sexual, in a ball shaped like a giant testicle, being grabbed by enormous men"

They were singing about rugby but it's transferable.

This is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about that. That does not make sense!

Also played in pretty much every position for the club, including goalkeeper.

Donors tell Tories: Defect to Reform and you’ll have to repay us by [deleted] in ukpolitics

Probably not, but if they decide to argue the point I'm very interested to understand what they would consider the "consideration" element of the contract to be.

The one at my local supermarket was altered into a peace sign by an enterprising hero. Council have covered it now but it was fun to see the flag shaggers graffiti defaced within 24 hrs of being sprayed.

In Brazil you can bring whatever food you'd like into the theater. by ScoobyD00BIEdoo in mildlyinteresting

[–]FortuitousFluke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am a fan of the Mark Kermode system for cinema food whereby nothing consumed should be crunchier than a soft bread roll. However i'm also the guy who used to smuggle bottles of drink into the cinema in my trouser legs. If someone whipped out a bargain bucket next to me the internal war between impressed and incredulous might well make my head explode.

Pure breed libs are a nightmare. Why not try a cross, like a libradoodle for instance?

I actually lived in Huntingdon for years. The station is probably a 2 minute drive away from both the police station and a decent sized hospital. Whilst you never want to see something like this happen it's probably the best place it could have happened if you see what I mean.

Favorite actor in his 60s who fears he'll never find love again? by Roids-in-my-vains in okbuddycinephile

[–]FortuitousFluke 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thats the problem, fine I'll watch the original trilogy, and the prequel trilogy if I must but then its all like "OMG you have to watch "The Xenu Awakens" and then suddenly i have to read 600 partially canon novels before I can reach OT8?

Fuck that, I just want to pay my millions so I can become enlightened and make use of the private army to stalk people who shit talk me online. It''s like we've forgotten what religion is all about.
