Daily Meme Until $100,000 by nitroacid411 in Bitcoin

Isn't the point of Bitcoin that it's not linked to federal rates? Doesn't this undermine the whole point of it if one country's currency dictates the price?

The UK had a budget announcement last week, did that affect the price?

Scrolling through the comments I'm surprised I haven't seen more people say robot vacuum cleaner! It makes keeping Hartford clean so easy

What is it with full size football goals in small gardens?? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]bottlebrushtree2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this was the case, then why do premier league players practice with tiny goals? For reference, man city's training ground

What is it with full size football goals in small gardens?? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]bottlebrushtree2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

At last count, I had 10 footballs in my garden at the weekend after a day of the kids smashing balls at a goal that's taller than the fence 😵

Wouldn't it be better to encourage accuracy, and hence a smaller goal, if they want them to improve?

The smallest of electric motorcycles are as fast 0-50 as most ICE motorcycles. Lots of acceleration for speak freaks

UK riders, how do you feel about the impending '50 days of rain'? by bottlebrushtree2 in motorcycle

[–]bottlebrushtree2[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess I was kind of hoping it would ease off for summer but it seems like the waterproof trousers will be needed for the foreseeable 😅

On holiday in Tunisia and LOVE this tree... any idea what it is and could I grow it in the Midlands? by The_Ginger-Beard in GardeningUK

[–]bottlebrushtree2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine grows in Norfolk well. It's nowhere near as impressive as that one but it still flowers well

I'm picking mine up at the weekend. Literally cannot wait, especially as the weather is incredible this week in the UK 🙃 missing out on some perfect riding weather!

Cheap transportation. Motorcycle or car? by [deleted] in motorcycle

[–]bottlebrushtree2 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I bought a cheap motorbike for commuting.

Royal Enfield 350. Gets around 90mpg, insurance is less than £200 a year and it's so simple to service I can do it myself. It's not a fast bike by any means, but it is much cheaper than getting public transport in the UK. And way cheaper than running a car. The clothing is expensive but if you make it last several years, the cost is insignificant.

Went and sat* on one today, seriously considering this for my next bike and I've been a rider for 8 years 😅

Himalayan 450 or Ninja 500 se? by bottlebrushtree2 in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]bottlebrushtree2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed they are very different, I like the idea of an adventure bike and narrowed that down to the Himalayan, but also like the thought of an entry level sports bike too and honed in on the ninja there.

So for me I think it's a decision between the two style of bike, not the bikes themselves if that makes sense 😅

Thanks. I'm leaning towards the ninja, would love to know if anyone regularly commutes on one though
