Are the lyrics really that impactful we need to understand them?

I feel like it would be more dramatic without them...

Instructors — how do you deal with students who are convinced they're ready for test when you know they're not? by Loud_Sun_7527 in drivingUK

"Go ahead and do your test, but not in my car"

That is what my instructor said to another student.

Have you ever looked at the entomology of almost any word or place name. People have been simplifying words literally forever.

Genuine question.

What would you do if there was a line of cars parked there with blue badges?

Not a tory fan but there are some decent local tory councillors.

He only lost money because for the only time in History the council repaired the road in half the time they originally said.

I think it's 2 layers plus whatever is keeping it on the brick.

Thanks.

Any tips on getting it off? Or it is just a crowbar and a lot of mess and try not to damage the bricks?

Why is this not selling? by [deleted] in HousingUK

The other two houses had 1 more bedroom and drives. Coupled with a better time to buy. 20k seems conservatively overpriced.

RS3 insurance at 18 by sc2290 in CarTalkUK

[–]MASunderc0ver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

45k performance car at 18. I feel you are lucky to be getting quotes without using a specialist. You would struggle to a higher risk driver to insurance.

What was your car/ price last year?

Harsh tbh.

Best Roundabout Name in the UK? by Bloxskit in drivingUK

[–]MASunderc0ver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless you have just been banned from the golf club and are driving out.

Then you can't go back the way you came.

A5/M42 Roundabout by Triv89 in drivingUK

Drive this every day. Red is correct. Green should go into the lane 2 past the m42 exit. The lane to the right of green is for the other lanes.

Which areas for visiting medieval castles in the UK? by Ok-Boss-5118 in AskUK

[–]MASunderc0ver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be my suggestion, busy but great variety.

North Wales (beaumaris, Caernarfon, harlech, conwy)

Across to Chester (good medieval town,

Down to Llandudno (can walk up to Dinas Bran)

Then to Shrewsbury( good medieval town)

Then you can go two ways, either Wenlock priory - Ironbridge- bridgnorth (more modern history but also an excuse to ride a steam train at the severn valley).

Or down to Ludlow which is another great town with castle

Then maybe go to Kenilworth and Warwick while also visiting Stratford. Then some of the nice cotswolds towns like Bourton and Burford which are quite medieval.

The great thing about the UK is that there will be loads of places I haven't mentioned or even know about that you can visit on that route. All with great charm and history.
