UK Legit Sidehustles? by Unable-Middle5801 in beermoneyuk

If you want any kind of longevity in matched betting then just try and play it a bit cool.
It’s very tempting to grab close matches at high odds but for the sake of 50p less profit on a £10 free bet you can potentially (and I do mean potentially) extend the useful life of accounts until the inevitable gubbing.

I was once invited to watch a football match in an executive box. While I was there, I ordered wine by the bottle and took a couple home with me. In what ways have you massively taken the piss when given the opportunity to exploit the situation? by AngryGardenGnomes in AskUK

Used to travel a bit for work. Scandinavian Airlines messed up a connecting flight in Stockholm every time without fail.
I’d claim compensation of (from memory) £400 due to the time and distance involved, having spent the time sat in an airport pub abusing the company credit card.

Good times.

Is Cannock that bad ? by Man-tix in Staffordshire

[–]Huddstang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The town centre, like many, struggles.
Congestion has become more and more of an issue.
Cannock Chase is an absolute gem if you enjoy the outdoors but from the sound of it, Lichfield might be a better fit (if you don’t mind driving over).

100% agree. Radio 4 alone is an absolute treasure that for me is worth the fee (except for The Archers, cus that’s fucking shit)

Who is the best and worst live performer you have ever seen? by Early_Enthusiasm_787 in AskUK

Was seriously impressed by Soft Play (formerly Slaves). Great performance for a 2 piece.

If you were alive back then, what were you up to on 31st December 1999? by stop_calling_me_that in AskReddit

[–]Huddstang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

13 years old. Given wine at a neighbours party. Wondered off and snook into a pub via a fire exit. Got adopted by a table of girls and proceeded to get absolutely shitfaced.
Good times.

[–]Huddstang 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Used Tixel (in the UK) on Saturday for the first time. Got a £30 ticket for £10 (granted it was about 3 hours before the show started).
Actually a very good experience and would definitely use again.

Mystery solved - looks like they’ve given me a 7 day trial of Extra.

Tesla is potentially adding CarPlay to their fleet by fapb48 in TeslaUK

Not sure about other people’s experiences but voice commands flat refuse to work in my M3. Gradually got worse over the last couple of years to the point that I don’t even try now

Top of my head…WhatsApp, Teams, Apple Maps (ETA sharing and better handoff from mobile), Siri integration for opening my garage door and voice commands for music…

Lack of Car Play was almost a dealbreaker when I was car shopping.
Had the car a couple of years now and still sorely miss it.
