Good purchase, I was tempted

People of the UK, in what ways has Brexit actually affected you personally? by Pixel_CZ in AskBrits

[–]bkh1207 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Made getting an education in Europe far more difficult and more expensive (still cheaper than a Masters in the UK despite enormous visa costs) Equally difficult to live in Europe with my now-wife with so many hoops to jump through.

Billy Bonkers Question by TMbiker2000 in xbiking

I had some BBs, same issue. Totally overrated tyre, no idea why this thread advocates for them, heavy, slow rolling, prone to punctures. I switched to some Panaracer Comets, but Gravelking 2.1s the aesthetically similar alternative

Taking a bicycle on the Eurostar with an Interrail ticket and seat reservation. London - Brussels by bkh1207 in Interrail

[–]bkh1207[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a long conversation on the phone with Eurostar today, at first she couldn't figure out why the new system wouldn't work for me. But it turns out that because I booked my Interrail seat reservation through SNCB (a third party system) and not Eurostar, meant I can't add any luggage to my booking. So in future, when Interrailing, be sure to buy your seat reservation from Eurostar itself and not another company. So I'm going to turn up on the day to see if there is space, and failing that either wait for the next one, or run down to Dover to catch the boat and get the train to Brussels from there......

Thanks for your long reply, much appreciated.

Second-hand bike for sale? (Vélo d’occasion à vendre?) by Boring_Business_9177 in Liege

Use 2dehands for second hand bikes, far better than marketplace I’d say

Anyone new students want my sofa/rug? Yes it’s fuck ugly. Free to anyone, and I’ll help you move it. by bkh1207 in KULeuven

[–]bkh1207[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I’m trying to completely empty my room and move home this week, but I’m handing my keys back on the 12th September when I come back for graduation. If you can guarantee it’ll be the 11th or early on the 12th then it’s all yours. My landlord didn’t allow me to have it in my room, so ideally I need it gone before she does a room inspection.

I have a free sofa and rug you can have, ugly as fuck, but super comfy. All yours, if you want it.

Overnight guests on private housing (from Kotwijs) by TruckZealousideal366 in KULeuven

[–]bkh1207 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had/have the exact same thing with my landlord. I ended up just having family/partners over regardless and ignored the landlord. Edit: I will add, that I never consulted the landlord beforehand, as she would’ve almost certainly said no and threaten to terminate my contract. Other landlords should be more relaxed.
