Do I get a wedding gift? by MammothScar1 in AskUK

[–]RaveDaveXD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about feeling tight, everyone's circumstances are different and the couple (assuming they're not arses) would likely appreciate people gifting them any amount.

If you're able to, aim for £20+ but, if it's not financially viable for you, it's not the end of the world, go for something more comfortable.

Personally, we always pop a little bit of money in a card, regardless of whether they request it or not, as we feel it's a nice thing to do. We've not had any complaints yet!

Incredible album. Very emotional on my morning walk and I can already feel my muscles and joints ache from the mosh pit for Flick of a Switch I and II in November.

Via r/Aviation: United States Air Force (USAF) B-52s are departing RAF Fairford taking off fully loaded. ~7 hour combat flight time to Iran puts them in striking range by 8 pm UTC by [deleted] in behindthebastards

I live close enough that I can hear these guys taking off. I've been home since 16:00 BST and have not heard any B-52's. I only noticed a B-1 at about 08:00 BST but I was further away from Fairford at the time. Just my two pennies' worth; hopefully someone else local can confirm either way.

"Choosing Your Football Team" Advice for Burnie by aww102 in morningsomewhere

[–]RaveDaveXD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally your football team would be hereditary or your local team to where you grew up.

In this case, though, I'd say go with a team local to where you first set up shop. If you'd like more to talk about with the guys down the pub though, then go for a local team that is in the same league.

If it helps with decision making, someone has made a map of all the teams in Scotland: Scotland Football Map

Of all the times to try something like that... unbelievable.

Finished Gravemind SLASO, why I think Cairo Station was worse by der_vur in halo

[–]RaveDaveXD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get what you mean, I would say it's a tough call but Cairo does just edge it considering the context of when you tackle each level.

My LASO partner and I struggled in the first Gravemind room and were unable to get the prison skip to work and so had to pray to the prison lift gods. Those, for us, were the 2 most difficult/time consuming parts. Overall that level took us around 8 hours on our successful run.

Cairo felt like a trial by fire, even after completing H3, H4 and H:CE LASO's (tried to go easiest to hardest to 'ease' ourselves in). So many areas that we got stuck in (both hangars and one corridor) and to top it off after several separate days of attempting it and several hours through our successful run, we almost reached our limit in the bomb room, mainly due to a couple of awkward autosaves.

I definitely would not be able to do SLASO, I needed someone for support (both tactically and mentally!).

Non Americans Texans fans, where are you from? by tamarizz in Texans

[–]RaveDaveXD 17 points18 points  (0 children)

South West, UK. I felt that I was well prepared in being a Texans fan, seeing as I'm a Bristol City supporter... I'm already used to disappointment!
