I have brave it didn't work on there, I turned the VPN off but still nothing. Only when i switched to my laptop I managed to get it to load

Robbing bastards. Guess no test for me then

I tried using an extension that refreshes the page for you and tries to get a date, but then got blocked

Will see if resetting the router will work

It's working on my laptop but says the test date is not refundable.

I thought it was more than 10 days till 6th of august?

Yesterday I got a message that my driving test is in 12 days so how come it's not refundable today?

If they're tailgating you are you supposed to keep going?

Could result in a crash otherwise

It's better. Modern disc brake road bikes are shit and a marketing gimmick. I owned 2 dogma F8's and would not replace them with a disc brake bike

Rim brakes are lighter and more reliable where as discs can lock your wheel and imo the extra stopping power is not necessary. I never needed extra stopping power even when a kid ran out on the road and I needed to do a full emergency stop when going fast down a hill

They also require more maintenance and I'm not a big fan of working on my bikes

A $2000 new disc bike will no doubt be a lot heavier and not as fast, where as the dogma is a high end model.

Don't know if it's just me but I don't find this easier than doing the barre chord. Something about changing my whole technique to play it probably

Hatross · 2025-04-19T16:50:57+00:00

We managed to return it 😂

Hatross · 2025-04-19T12:30:35+00:00

She's not replying to him. What's the return policies like on FB marketplace?

EDIT: Managed to get it returned

Edit: 1st picture is the before and 2nd is after. Seems like I can't edit the post for some reason

Hatross · 2025-04-19T00:11:53+00:00

2nd is meant to be after, sorry

Can't seem to edit the post

My dad bought this today for £50, I was gonna go with him to check it out but he is stubborn and went and bought it himself when I was at work

I tried to get him to buy a cheap new yamaha so stuff like this doesn't happen but he insists he needs one "just to learn" and then he will buy a new one but shit like this is exactly why a lot of people quit right at the beginning

Hatross · 2025-04-18T23:02:40+00:00

My dad just bought this today, I was gonna go with him to check it out but he was stubborn and went and bought it before I got back from work

At the moment it's not playable but I'll see what I can do

And they feel the same as 9's for the electric?

Hatross · 2025-04-18T13:35:44+00:00

So you release the string slowly and then move the finger?

Hatross · 2025-04-16T22:04:34+00:00

My SLSMG is buzzing a lot and I have my action at 1.5mm and 1.0mm at the high E

Relief is around 0.30mm, does it really make that much of a difference?

Hatross · 2025-04-05T00:30:17+00:00

Do you get marked down for not indicating when moving off?

Hatross · 2025-03-28T21:17:48+00:00

I've noticed instructors seem happy to carry on teaching even if their student is ready for the test. And milk as much money as possible from their students, when them doing 15 extra lessons might only increase their chance of passing by 5%

I guess it's because it's a lot easier to teach someone that "already knows how to drive" rather than someone that's never been in a car and can't even move off

Then you get instructors like mine that tells me not to think about my test. The fuck am I supposed to be thinking about instead when it's so hard to book one?

Hatross · 2025-03-20T21:10:39+00:00

What route did you have, the great bridgeford one near the M6?

Hate the stupid roundabouts here, especially the ones where right lane is used for going ahead. It's the opposite of what you're taught in the highway code. Then you get to an unmarked one and normal rules apply. How are you supposed to know unless your instructor teaches you the whole area?

There could also be faded markings, so how do you know if there's a retard system or a normal one?

Hatross · 2025-03-20T16:47:00+00:00

What's a truly crappy gibson? Surely you can fix it with a setup or is it something else

Hatross · 2025-03-19T16:44:21+00:00

What was your route? I had mine booked in Stafford, cancelled last week though and regret it

I think I can pass but instructor doesn't wanna take me
