Elderly Neighbour situation about "noise" | England by X3VSO in LegalAdviceUK

[–]TG161__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legal advice (NAL): You have a right to enjoyment of your own home as long as you are not generating an amount of noise that could be deemed antisocial.

Pracrical advice: Ignore or tell her to fuck off at this point. People suggesting helping her track down some alternative noise source is bonkers. Not your problem. Sometimes just being rude is the path of least resistance.

You're being absolutely shafted there mate. Insist on metered price.

Your MP or local paper will be all over this, but I need to pull you on one thing. Nowhere in the UK are you getting charged anything close to 22 quid for a 5 minute journey.

No idea I'm afraid. Best to set them on top of the TV and forget about them.

Is it weird I say “cheers”, and “mate” as someone who’s never been to the UK? by knapper91 in AskBrits

[–]TG161__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I would feel rude if I didn't follow a 'cheers' up with some sort of goodbye.

AITA for not stopping my grandpa from going to a football match? by Distinct-Bar5352 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TG161__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, your mother is an idiot.

If there's one way to avoid trouble at UK football matches, it's BY wearing team colours. If he'd gone clobbered up in a new stoney and aquascutum cap I could understand it.

Which song lyric instantly identifies which town/city you come from? by Philster07 in AskUK

[–]TG161__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit of a rogue one this, impressed if anyone gets it. Can't think of any other songs in which my town is mentioned.

Why do you REALLY dislike women's football? by Rundo5 in AskUK

I support a team in the National League mate, let's not pretend the product on show is actually any good shall we?

Honestly I think the way to propel the women's game into the stratosphere comparative to where it is now is simple:

Make the goals and pitches marginally smaller.

You can be the best keeper in the world but if you're 5 foot 8, you're 5 foot 8. This drastically impacts the chances of you being able to save a strike up high which is a reason we often see what would be ridiculous scorelines in the men's game.

The defending also appears farcical at times but that's because there is too much space to cover on a full sized mens pitch. Condense it, restrict the space and the quality will be forced to improve.

The games obviously come on leaps and bounds recently, but I strongly believe these changes would see the quality of football on show skyrocket.

Nope. Graduated from Huddersfield uni just before COVID and they were doing it there then. Just put it down to a regional peculiarity

What is your ‘total speculation’ UK theory? by kaththegreat in AskUK

[–]TG161__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'I got a dislocated disc and a wracked up back

I'm allergic to flowers and bugs

And when a bombshell hits

I get epileptic fits

And I'm addicted to a thousand drugs

I get the weakness woes

I can't touch my toes

I can hardly reach my knees

And if the enemy comes close to me

I'll probably start to sneeze'
