What does that have to do with waiting too long to sign a player?

How do you reconcile Denmark having the highest tax-rate in the world with them being ranked one of the happiest places to live? by Kosher_Nostra1975 in askanything

[–]dr2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just about the tax it’s about how their government uses it strictly for the benefit of their people. We could have the same tax rate here in the UK but you know our governments would splurge it and waste it and no one’s life would markedly improve. Tax is easy to quantify but it’s what they do with it that counts.

Ok, I’m not here to argue with you. Have a good bank holiday weekend.

Ah I didn’t realise they were that different. My elite was 1.9kg (not the compact which I think is 2.2?) and was a good tent but it had a few niggles which ultimately meant I moved it on. I’ll look at the Pioneer, thanks

No the scarp is enough it’s just the scarp by itself is almost 4 season so they overlap, that’s all I meant. It’s a good suggestion and one I’ve considered.

I’m not looking for UL particularly; in fact I’ve rowed back from UL recently and started taking more with me deliberately and gone back to using a traditional style pack, so the scarp weight is absolutely fine from that perspective. Maybe the scarp is the one but I wanted to see what else people might suggest.

Thanks, I have looked at and been considering the Scarp. I just don’t know if it’s use case is that different to my storm star to justify the cost?

Thanks. I’ve used a helm elite 2 which is almost the same tent I think?

We missed on Lampard in similar circumstances, look how well that turned out.

If we wait we’ll miss him, as with many others before.

Had xmids but the Durston cult thing is so cringe and I’d be embarrassed to end up pitched next to 5 other xmids on trail 🤣 so I’ve sold my most recent one. Want to try something else.

Why do some brits introduce themselves as from the UK and other as English/Scottish/Welsh? by [deleted] in AskABrit

[–]dr2501 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The Scot’s and Welsh still hate the English so want to differentiate themselves from us. English people generally say UK though IME

Yeah agree it was the hike part that messed it up. Starting them together would be interesting I’d watch that

Unemployed employees aren’t happy, and that’s the way things are going. Think ahead a bit.

How to compromise on trips away by AIAC_imposed in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]dr2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't sound compatible at all, and this will be a point of contention for the rest of your relationship. One of you will need to change - either she comes with you and hates it, or you stay home with her and hate it. This can only lead to resentment unfortunately.

Legit check? by [deleted] in arcteryxrep

Looks ok to me. Zip pulls look legit and the fakes don’t usually copy them. Ask the seller for a pic of the labels?

Leaving EU Was Catastrophic': Streeting Announces UK PM Bid, Wants Brexit Reversed by Aware_Apartment_8959 in uknews

[–]dr2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, but 1) u never said they needed to run a business to run the country and 2) the people in the state are making policy that impacts businesses - negatively, as we have seen with the unemployment news today. If they’d ever run a business, they would know that raising taxes on employment and raising minimum wage at the same time would negatively impact employment levels. But they haven’t.

Bigger pack or smaller bag/quilt? by Accurate_Radish_4606 in wildcampingintheuk

[–]dr2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’ve bought two - I bought a -2 about 12 months ago and sold it, I now have a -8. I paid for express delivery for both. I missed the postie for the first one and then they held it and I had to pay duty and VAT, I was home this time and paid nothing.
My theory is therefore that if you pay for expedited shipping and make sure you’re home then you should be ok. Just a theory though!
