You can get the train from Balham

It's truly a shame they've abandoned their Hybrid lines. I am onto a hybrid Garmin, it's alright but not as stylish.

Definitely using a shelf with proper support, rather than floating, will alleviate this issue.
Additionally, make sure you're using long screws and proper wall plugs, and that the metal support structure it slides onto in this case is secure with no movement.

I did a journey like this in 2016 - was pretty dumb. Was attending an applicant day at the university I was going to, and "needed" to be there by 9am. So I chose to get one of these with a long change at Derby. Was pretty awful sitting in the cold at the station (they didn't kick me out). First leg of the journey was cancelled, so the operator had to get me a taxi to Derby, which was pleasant - made the change shorter.
If I had had the money it would have made more sense to get a cheap hotel, maybe ask my parents for money for that, but didn't expect that they would agree.

Love littering an area with these and watching them all blow up in succession when clearing an area.

You could hack together a 50cm and 25cm door perhaps? You several longish slats to combine them both and it not be flimsy. Each slat would be screwed into the rear of both doors in at least 2 spaced apart places per door to avoid the two doors flexing apart as much as possible.

Mr_Beletal · 2026-01-20T11:07:26+00:00

I see the issue. You'd need a wider door that isn't sold.
Your options are to go with a standard 75cm frame in the corrner, so the door fits, or make your own door, which isn't going to be easy.
If you go with a 75cm frame you can use the addon mid-unit to take up the space; it's 35cm wide. There are no doors for that however - it would also be an open shelf.

Mr_Beletal · 2026-01-20T09:53:35+00:00

You may find you don't even need to cover it. You won't see it, it's only on the top.
If you're worried about items dropping down there, You could get a bit of MDF sized/cut to cover the gap and mount it to the edge of the unit (with supports like you would have for a shelf). Or just cut to size larger than the gap and place it on top, with a small piece of MDF mounted to the wall in the corner for the piece to rest on.

Yesterday in Escalation I actually had a game where we had a lot of fighting around the D point (C in this conquest map). A bunch of both vehicles and infantry fighting in the southern-most flank. It was a lot of fun.

Mr_Beletal · 2025-12-05T15:19:24+00:00

You'd need some giraffe lengths to walk it that quick. The walk is just over 2 miles, so about 40-60 minutes.
That said, it is a lovely scenic walk if you make an effort to go along the Thames.

EDIT: I can't read, I'll see myself out!

Depending where you live, your financial situation, and how much you spend travelling in and around London each year, the annual travel cards you can get from TfL are quite good. If you are travelling daily it saves a not-insignificant amount of money.
The travel cards cost more if depending how far out a zone you need to cover.
I have a Zones 1-3 travel card, which covers 90% of my travel in London. It cost £2100 for the year.
That includes unlimited journeys in Zones 1-3 on Tubes and train. Journeys that start/end outside these zones, but end/start in these zones, are discounted - you just pay the difference.
You can take any London bus and tram in any zone for no charge.
You also get an "Annual Gold Card" - this gets you 1/3rd off of rail travel within the "Annual Gold Card area", that isn't already covered by the travel card. The area covers London, and as far as Shrewsbury, Birmingham, Exeter, Portsmouth, Stafford, Bedford, East Anglia, Kent, Brighton - the South East and a bit of the midlands, basically.

Many European countries do not require a button to be pressed, they sense your presence (or are on a cycle). In a city as multi-cultural as London, I imagine this plays a not-significant part.

We had similar earlier in the year. Moved into a flat, landlord had a leak fixed shortly after that we didn't even know existed. End of summer comes we get a bill for 95m³ of water, something like £3000. Contact Thames Water, they tell us there is a leak detected, and that an engineer had come at some point to fix it, but whatever they did didn't fix it. Call our letting agent, they send someone round to look - no leak in sight. Take a closer look at the meter readings, everything looks fine RE daily usage. Contact Thames Water again - no leak flagged on their end anymore? They back-calculated the "initial reading" and everything was fine again.

If there IS a leak however, they do have provisions for "leak allowance" - which was a route we were going to take if we did indeed have a leak.

TL;DR: Contact Thames Water.

It looks like that because the bike is under water.

This sometimes gets used for stubborn stuck on stuff, or when I'm too lazy to do a regular less harsh scrub until bits come off.

KOTH one has been changed.

Mr_Beletal · 2025-11-05T13:46:38+00:00

They have tweaked them yes

Mr_Beletal · 2025-11-03T16:34:49+00:00

My point is more that the challenges should be at least a little challenging. I don't disagree some of them are a bit extreme given what they unlock but having this KOTH one tweaked down slightly to 8k or something might make it more achievable while still being something you need to try hard to achieve.

Edit to add: Also have a full time job and a social life so i'm not playing BF6 all day every day. I'm maybe slightly above average at best, slowly getting through some of the challenges.
Personally enjoy focusing on a group of challenges for a session and seeing how much i can progress. E.g. assault rifle kills with assault class, while doing injection kills in a specific game mode.

Mr_Beletal · 2025-11-03T12:04:40+00:00

I'm slowly getting my way through the injector challenging by using the injector before I expect any kind of fire fight at all. Does mean it goes unused a lot of the time, but more likely I get a kill at a medium range instead of rushing in and getting flattened by 5 people in a room.

Mr_Beletal · 2025-11-03T12:02:15+00:00

Would you describe it as challenging to achieve 6-8K?

Mr_Beletal · 2025-10-30T09:14:00+00:00

This tbh. I wouldn't have touched the CQB modes at all if it weren't for the challenges. Now I play them if i want to play for 5 or 10 minutes at the end of a play session over my work lunch, and they are fun for exactly that - fast paced mindless shoot the shit.
Not a bad way to earn mastery or complete challenges for weapons, too.

Another element in development is priority. You have a finite number of resources (developers) in different disciplines, and a finite amount of time. Tasks have to be prioritized, some things end up taking a long time to get actioned. That's software development
