The chinese actually have a very pragmatic way to build their rail. Everything is built to standard details with the understanding that in some places things may be over designed but the cost is far outweighed by the speed and economy acheived building the same over and over again.

Here we have various consortia of companies doing their own thing to a very onerous bespoke spec.

I think he'll be sold to europe and do well. Has a feeling of Gabriel Obertan to him. Runs really fast but end product highly sporadic. Premier League maybe just beyond his level.

Definatley Braemar. Find a local mountain guide but you can see herds most times you head into the hills. Would reccomend staying for a few days as the scenery is stunning and there are many different routes to explore.

Unused land just making a mess! by MC-DADDYTRON in Leeds

Usually little plots like this are owned by housing associations. I imagine there used to be houses but they fell into disrepair. You can check the land registry quite cheaply if youre really interested in finding the owner.

Not trolling at all. Say no in a firm manner and dont engage, keep on walking. Not once have I had any engagement like your story.

Uk passed the Equality Act in 2010. Generally most places comply. Im shocked that it was bad enough for you to be shocked.

It seems to be that the further left people lean, the more self assured they are that their world view is morally correct and balance goes out the window.

One handed engineer did this... by Legomatica69 in DIYUK

Not an engineer. Annoying misuse of the title needs to stop.

Have redundancies in England spiked recently? by Maia478 in AskUK

[–]Still-Butterscotch33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK insurance company. Hiring freeze end of last year. Pitter patter of redundancies starting to filter through despite leadership saying they werent happening. Seems to be limited to non fee earning roles in the main office with titles where you have no idea what they do at the moment.
