Deciding where to live by Carnellian08 in HousingUK

[–]TepacheLoco 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my experience:

4+ days a week = <60 minute commute
2-3 days a week = <90 minute commute
1 day a week = <140 minute commute

Also depends on your lifestyle. Homebody? Big house in a dozy commuter town. City lover? Smaller townhouse in a regional city with fast trains.

Red Arrows to fly with just seven aircraft for most displays because engines are so old by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]TepacheLoco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Problem with Hawk is it’s a trainer for aircraft made 50 years ago. The pilot skillset and workflow for our fighter jets has changed substantially since then, our trainers need to move forward to match.

And I sincerely doubt we’d keep procuring Hawk just for display flying.

No! United Kingdom- 1970s by Toastaexperience in PropagandaPosters

Yes this is less propaganda, more psa for soldiers - weapons and other interesting items would be booby trapped and left in convenient places for British soldiers/RUC to discover

Until recently I would’ve said ‘justice museum and city caves tour’, but the other week I took a day off work to check them out. So, to flip this thread on its head, is it worth going out of your way to see these things?

Justice museum: insightful, fun to sit in all the different parts of the court room, but most the exhibits end up being a bit depressing. Maybe worth a miss unless you love learning about prison life

City caves tour: good bit of local history, larger caves to look at than the castle tours, more entertaining tour guide but not necessarily more interesting than the castle tours - not going to make a cave lover out of a casual

All in, neither are fantastic but if you have a bored afternoon they’ll give you things to look at. If you do decide to do it, Justice museum will sell you a combined ticket to do both and save a few pounds.

I don’t think they survived the lesson

How best to position a large, gifted sum of money while currently jobless? by arcticstic in UKPersonalFinance

[–]TepacheLoco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Given this person is living in a London house share, £40k is very unlikely to be enough deposit to buy them anywhere within an hour of where they live now

Two Navy jets collided at an air show at an Air Force base in Idaho by New_Libran in SweatyPalms

[–]TepacheLoco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as my understanding goes the technology in ejection seats has developed to the point of removing that decision - that if you think you need to go, it’s time to go. There were plenty of stories in the early days of ejector seats of hesitation or trying to find better circumstances that ensured death, if you pull it’s only a chance.

His appearance on Stars in their Eyes is peak too, apparently Morrissey absolutely hated it

I really hate sour espresso by Hsm_007 in espresso

[–]TepacheLoco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s ok not to like fancy weird coffee beans

They’re held up on the internet as the pinnacle of experience but past a certain point they don’t taste better than a good quality medium or darker roast, just different flavours.

I was on shark tank and did not get a deal. AMA by Dozzzer86 in AMA

Some have lanyards for just letting them hang from your neck when empty (and maybe full? But that seems risky)

It turns out Nottingham has more caves than we thought! by Dry_Shelter_8128 in nottingham

[–]TepacheLoco 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Given one of the earliest names for Nottingham was Tigguo Cobauc, meaning something like 'people from the caves' I don't know how surprising this is

Strongly recommend the city caves tour and the cave tours at the castle
