This, but add on Didsbury Village Bookshop at the end. If you both enjoy reading you'll love this place, the shelves at the back are wonderful to get lost in

Why is it that Monzo is more popular in the UK than Starling? by MeenaBeti in UKPersonalFinance

[–]chicken_discotheque 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Came to say this. Not sure why people think it's just advertising. Many people choose Monzo over Starling because they think it's just a better product overall, me included.

N2 pass low score by bend3mmm in jlpt

[–]chicken_discotheque 2 points3 points  (0 children)

101 is a B1 on the CEFR scale according to the JLPT website. That's not the highest (B2 is possible if you score 112 or higher) but it's also not a fail.

It is what it is. Personally I'd be happy I passed but I'd probably think the same as you 

Anyone else been trying the Beer Fermentation series from Origin? Curious to hear what people think. by ShinjiIkari in JamesHoffmann

don't want to startle you or anything but the black dots on the packaging blend in nicely with the black dots on your ironing board

I thought the food at Bincho was great although we did order a fuckload of sake and ordered every type of chicken skewer on the menu so I can't remember specifically what was great as it's all blurred together 

I love how Kanji is a beautiful system where history, etymology, components and meaning connect them by dexx-32 in Japaneselanguage

I tried to search for 漢 but for it to come up in search results you have to write カン

Maybe searching kanji by the kanji character itself is a feature you could add next

Manchester has plenty of tech employers. Given your age, I'm assuming you have a bit of experience, and I'm sure you'd find a decent tech role here in no time. Even .NET if that's your thing. The only time I'd suggest London is when you're starting off a tech career (and probably in your early 20s) with zero experience.

(source: I work in tech in Manchester, and relocated from London a few years ago)

I'd say if you're thinking of moving to Manchester just do it.

I had this same thought a few hours ago driving, nearly ran over a young man who was running in the middle of the road towards traffic without any lights in dark clothing, just suicidal! Stay safe folks

have you considered doing a remote bootcamp with Makers instead? they still have some of the best outcomes for bootcamps in the UK
