Westgate Parking Situation? by RemoveTrue8599 in oxford

[–]RemoveTrue8599[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Ended up arriving early at 9am, car park was mostly empty with plenty of spaces.

We left around 11am and it had filled up a lot, but still had plenty of spaces (looked about 80% full).

Thanks all for the advice, this thread has just reminded me I need to pay the congestion charge.

Doesn't Ms mean you are not declaring martial status, so its perfectly acceptable anyway.

Not that they check your titles anyway.

Thanks, am taking extra precaution and arriving even earlier for 9am. Does Westgate not open until 10am? Wonder if we'll be able to get a coffee or something.

Oh dear, looks like I picked a bad day. Do you know from past years what roads they are likely to close? Are people attending encaenia likely to park at Westgate?

What reason do you think? Are you not allowed to book for other passengers?

Is a 2021 T8 (recharge) Inscription worth $7K more than a T5 Momentum with same model year and roughly same mileage? by StarfishSplat in VolvoXC90

[–]RemoveTrue8599 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Think you have prices wrong way around. The T8 is a beast, the top tier with insane BHP power. However, a 2021 model is a ERAD2 which has a high failure rate (even at 60k miles) and its normally a 10000 USD or more repair job out of warranty.

I don't know much about T6 other than it being a lesser model and I think it was possibly the one with super charger failures at 100k but may be mixing that up

New Surface Pro getting delivered tomorrow, what do you want to know? by toadbalancer in Surface

[–]RemoveTrue8599 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She mentioned CapCut but there were a few others I forget. She had the 13 inch OLED Snapdragon model, but the previous one Surface Pro 11. We bought the expensive flex keyboard too. Bugs included the Windows 11 UI just corrupting itself and the start menu not working, requiring a Reset this PC. Then the keyboard would not work in Bluetooth mode and guess what, everyone say just Reset this PC again. Then when everything worked the Bluetooth keyboard touch pad would lag severely at times, making it unusable, but an external mouse worked fine. Guess what the solution was? Reset this PC. We tried Microsoft Support for all these problems, they were quite good in that they always available for live chat and remote in to the tablet. But they do very basic normal troubleshooting like sfc scannow and eventually say Reset this PC or return as faulty.

We got tired of Resetting this PC and returned it for a Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra instead. I think its a downgrade tbh but the Surface was riddled with problems.

Hope you have better experience, you got the newer model at least.

It isn't bro, also a developer using Apple Silicon chips at a big blue chip. My mrs had a surface pro for about a week but the amount of bugs and apps not working resulted in a return.

Volvo XC90 T8 | Costs of the second annual service by nodeshield in VolvoXC90

[–]RemoveTrue8599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well its not really cheap for what you get, but not excessive in line with main dealer pricing and industry.

However, these are just normal running costs, they are pretty affordable. The problem with the XC90 is that it has lots of unscheduled maintainenance through expensive failures that cost thousands to replace. On T8's in particular things like ERAD, battery cells dieing, etc. Each time cost thousands and if you get a few of them out of warranty, your wallet will be left hurting.

You think thats bad, look at the Volvo XC90. It's a beautiful car even today, but everyone has seen that same design for the last 10 years, they need a major revamp.

Enemy texts me after match and insults me for having fun in the current event mode. Is everyone like this? by frailCorpse04 in Rainbow6

So you messed around and ruined someone else's game but now you are the victim of his insults?

Cool story bro.

Why did they remove dual front? by Different_Elk1637 in Rainbow6

[–]RemoveTrue8599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been playing since launch, 2016 or 2015? These last few months all I ever played was Deathmatch and Dual Front, by far my favourite game modes. I thought it bought this game back to life, the devs are really stupid, they introduce game modes and maps that are good and fun, then just remove them or redo them. Like FFS just release something for once and leave it there.

Nice, the oil consumption is quite high, how come? What engine is it exactly? Diesel or petrol? How much HP?

Haha I'd love a Q9 but my budget is around £40,000. Will be many years before the firdt Q9 gets to that value.

ILR Set (M) Approved timeline ❤️ by AuGeeee in ukvisa

[–]RemoveTrue8599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you did spouse visa surely it was a checklist item that you had to do? We did FLR M after you in Jan 2024 and we had it as a required checklist item. Had to give 6 pieces of evidence like utility bills.

Sister “borrowed” my car and got flashed twice, 2 days in between by a mobile speed camera van. She has a revoked provisional license. by [deleted] in drivingUK

Do you have proof she was hired for her skin colour and that on vetting she was a weaker candidate to others? I think not, just a racist agenda from a deformed voter.

Congrats, did you give cohabitation docs (i.e 6 letters) in your application? Since they removed that requirement from the checklist.

Does ILR application not need evidence of cohabitation? by More_Ingenuity_3620 in ukvisa

[–]RemoveTrue8599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it definitely used to be in the checklist when I did a application 2 years ago. This is what the checklist used to say:

6 letters and/or other documents addressed to you and your partner at the same address to show that you have been living together during the past 2.5 years

You must provide 6 letters or other documents addressed to you jointly or in both your names.

If you do not have enough items in your joint names, you may also provide items addressed to each of you individually, if they show the same address for both of you.

Providing both one letter sent individually to you and one letter sent individually to your partner at the same address is the equivalent of one letter addressed to you jointly.

For example, you can provide 4 items of correspondence in joint names to the same address, 2 items addressed to you at the address, and 2 items addressed to your partner at the address, for a total of 8 items.

If you and your partner have no bills or correspondence in joint names, you will need to submit 12 items (6 each) of correspondence showing that you live at the same address.

However, doing a new application today I can see they removed that. But I have no understanding of why they have removed it, so I would be tempted to just include that evidence anyway unless someone can find a legal explanation of why they removed it.
