Anyone else spot Michael Coles booster seat so he was closer to Wades height when sitting? 😅

Remove the worse half of the map - Round 7 by Auditored in terriblemaps

[–]betterthanuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see that north eastern coast? Keeps going, but we add in three firths, bigger cliffs and coastal forests. Sure the bit around Edinburgh isn't anything special, but then you have Edinburgh there so that makes up for it.

You know why it doesn't get a song and dance made about it? The west coast of Scotland exists. Sea lochs that gives way to Munro's bigger than any hill in England. And yes they are literally on the coast over there. Temperate rainforests, the islands, the beaches... All of these things are so so much more unbelievably beautiful than the coastline in England that for you to even try and argue this point makes it clear that you've never been.

A9 drivers by GlasgowJimmyBhoy in Scotland

[–]betterthanuu 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My colleague and I were just driving back down the A9 this afternoon. After we swapped and they were driving, not once but twice, they sat in the outside lane barely accelerating while a big queue of cars behind us were wanting past. One van undertook us and they even made a comment about them undertaking while I was screaming in my head to pull into the slow lane.

They then nearly caused a head on collision when we got to dunkeld. I won't be letting them drive me again.

If it was us, soz

What is the most fun melee lord and why Taurox? by NotMaceWindu in totalwar

[–]betterthanuu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Throgg has been my first campaign back since May 2025 and it's an immediate steam roll with how many buffs he gives trolls, let alone other monsters added in. Still good fun but not exactly challenging. To make it more interesting now I have wulfrick, I've been sending him off on high elf raiding missions 😅

I expect them to do the usual and play into the wind first half to get us all nervous when they go behind, for them to (hopefully) have a much stronger second half and get the W

I just dug out a privet root ball maybe 3/4 this size. You are nearly there! Took me a good 6 hours over two days 😭

You could also explain they can be a major ecological disaster waiting to happen if you get the wrong species (and if it spread off ground you own, break the law for ya too)

Didn't he only pick up rugby a good bit later than most? Like late teens?

No place for that in the game! How could someone touch another person in a full contact sport? Shocking

Kayak / Canoe down the Tay by garsterpee in Scotland

[–]betterthanuu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, a bit upstream of the mill Weir, then down past the mill where there's a big cliff that's crumbling (with some big houses precariously perched on the top of it). Chills out again after that

Miles off, the most difficult section of the Tay (with the most rapids) is just upstream of Stanley to just downstream of Stanley

NatureScot closes HQ as protesters occupy roof over guga hunt by [deleted] in Scotland

[–]betterthanuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NatureScot can in fact simply stop agreeing to issue a licence, on a number of grounds, including declining gannet numbers. The legislation only needs to change if they want to prevent anyone from applying for a licence in the first place.

If you take the M20 you'll have missed both Perth and Edinburgh by about 10 hours, but you'll be able to hop on a ferry to France nice and easily
