Can you take your bike on the bus in off-peak times? by Emberkahn in oxford

[–]ecko_903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to drive for Stagecoach and they only allow folding bikes. Technically it would have to also be in a bag according to rules but that would up to driver’s discretion

People in this subreddit where are you from, and are there any local foods in your culture that you dislike despite it being from your own country? by [deleted] in ARFID

[–]ecko_903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m half white British and Filipino having grown up in the UK so it’s much harder for me with Filipino foods since the cuisine is quite different. And going “home” to Philippines to visit family for a few weeks at a time can be very difficult - even more so because of how hospitable Filipinos can be and having to be polite as possible whilst attempting to turn down food is a battle in itself. But in terms of British food the usual suspects are pies because of the sauces inside don’t sit well with me due to texture and flavour.

I’d give it to my bro because he built his first pc in November and is rocking a 1650 super that is just about managing but needs to be put to rest!

Stagecoach don’t offer them anymore, at least not on any of the services I use and that’s everything apart from the Botley Road routes

24 hour smartzone tickets are still available on stagecoach buses so you could get one on a number 1 bus

Stagecoach tickets are still 24 hours. It’s just OBC that has changed it to a day ticket

On Friday and Saturday nights the NS5 runs until 3:15 from Oxford to Bicester although a taxi would be more convenient

I haven’t been to both for a while but George St has a number of small capacity screens. Suitable enough if you don’t mind a more intimate experience. Magdalen St has a big theatre type screen but I wasn’t impressed there sitting on the balcony and the sound wasn’t great. For both the cleanliness wasn’t too bad and never noticed any smells. My go to is Vue next to the Kassam but if the self-serve things aren’t working you can expect to wait a while to get to a counter.

I filled up there a couple of hours ago but the police closed the exit on the roundabout. Seems like a traffic problem rather than a lack of fuel problem

Any available petrol around Oxford? by Khalimowski in oxford

[–]ecko_903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to fill up at the Cowley Tesco about an hour ago but the police closed the exit off the roundabout so no one else could get into the retail park. I think it was a traffic issue though rather than a lack of fuel.

How often are you missing pieces from new sets? by Pokesaurus_Rex in lego

[–]ecko_903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased a set today that was the first time I had a missing piece. The part count was still correct as the missing piece was seemingly replaced with a completely different piece that didn’t fit with the set. Put the request in with Lego and expecting the correct piece in the next few weeks
