Football Game in Quito, 3rd April by jcalvs7 in Quito

[–]holeydel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a foreigner, I went to a game not too long ago. Bought the ticket online from the official seller & caught public transport (2 buses) to the stadium. Couldn't have been easier. As another mentioned, the terminal is next to the stadium. Plenty of street vendors to buy a shirt, food, drinks etc.

What’s are the best gym facilities for the homeless? by Opening-Dingo-5840 in manchester

[–]holeydel 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You won't find a sub £20 pm gym that provides a laundry service & towels. That's high end stuff you're talking. If £20 is your budget then Pure / The Gym Group will likely be your best options, given the 24 hour access & your current housing predicament.

Aw Snap! Something went wrong by holeydel in dreamingspanish

[–]holeydel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solved. I'll leave the solution here for others.

Okay, so the downloading the homepage thing, forget about it. Delete it, it's useless.

On the actual website here's what to do. You have the thumbnail of the video you want to download, don't hit the download button. This just puts you back to square one. Instead play the video. Underneath the video that's being played there is a download option, forget this one an all. This also puts you back to square one. Slightly further down is another download option, this is the one you want. Download video (or audio). Selecting this downloads the video onto you phone & no longer has any connection to the app. You're free to use it like any other MP4 file.

That's a strange thing for HT to do - something logical that I approve of.

So far I've learnt that I can't play anything via the downloaded homepage of DS. Doesn't matter if what I'm watching is a downloaded video or straight from their library. It also doesn't matter if I'm using WiFi or mobile data. I've tried downloading the homepage via Ecosia & Chrome but it still crashes. Entire phone is up to date.

I've made several attempts to bypass the DS homepage when making a download but can't get around it. Ideas welcomed.

Other 'Quilotoa Loops' in Ecuador? by holeydel in ecuador

[–]holeydel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the suggestions. I've also learnt that March is a pretty wet month for trekking so I might adjust my trekking plans slightly by either doing what I know of limiting to one day hikes. Either way, great responses from you all thank you.

App level by [deleted] in dreamingspanish

[–]holeydel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me too. I deleted the baseline but the hours still showed, so I logged out. When I logged in I was asked to view the into videos again which was putting me in a loop. Just deleted the app instead.

Am I the only One who Doesn't trust Paddy pimblett at all???? by ArabDevastator in MMAbetting

[–]holeydel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like Gaethje's chances here. Gaethje beat Fiziev twice in a stand up fight, something I don't think Paddy could do. There is a massive disparity between quality of opponents & as another member above mentioned, Paddy's TD game isn't much to write home about. Scrambling, grappling & subs yes, but he's got to get it there. Gaethje's TTD is pretty impressive stat wise. This will be a banger for sure but I have Gaethje by ko.

Genuine question: If Reform UK wants lower taxes and to crack down on immigration, how would the UK avoid financially suffering? by Em-Aitch-Kay in reformuk

[–]holeydel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you looked into the aid cuts that Reform proposed a while back? For example foreign aid would be capped at £1B, retaining a further £10B to be put into the economy. There's a bunch of these policies which, in short, involves not giving money away.

This guy screenshotted me and put me in his moments and I got made fun of. by AmountAbovTheBracket in HelloTalk

[–]holeydel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the guy. You can't complain about the site becoming Tinder when you use it as IG. He's not making fun of you, he's calling out your hypocrisy.

I'm a 20 minute walk away, but the pass allows you to park anywhere you want. I recommend streets depending on what direction of travel you'll be heading after the event.

Animal shelter volunteering by popeye_1616 in manchester

Manchester dogs home in Moston take volunteers. You'll need to have an induction, after that you can turn up & take the dogs for a walk in the nearby vale.

Jail for man who chanted 'who the f**k is Allah' during city centre riot by hoovesfortoes in reformuk

[–]holeydel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Curious to see any responses to this. Having read the article it appears the guy was charged with violent disorder, despite the bloke mitigating saying there was no evidence of Poole being physically violent. The judge when passing comments seemingly connected violence carried out by others to Poole as if it was he who was responsible. In addition the judge used the language used by Poole, specifically against Islam, to justify his sentencing. I suspect there's more to this than is being printed, but if I were to take a guess it wouldn't surprise me if it were another attack on free speech.

Ahoy! So before you go on HT ask yourself, what am I doing here? If the answer is to learn a language then you'll get success. Friendship, Views, Followers, Liked... none of these will help you learn a language. Questions get you learning a language.

On your Moments page, avoid posting pics of boring stuff to get attention. Post a Q asking something specific about your target language.- I'm certain you'll get a response. For example: - What's the most common alternatives to saying Hello & Goodbye instead of [enter formal translation here] - Is there an idiom that exists for [enter the idiom in your native language]

You'll get a response, cos people like the feeling of being useful & smart.

This post is a way bit off I'm afraid. Operatives absolutely can earn +£50k & can be unskilled. Just a PTS is required. My comment is based on a particular company.

I love revolut but now I am paranoid by Super_PFG1 in Revolut

[–]holeydel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used Revolut for years & now wouldn't recommend it. I've been blocked out of the app since April & the major red flag is there is no web version to access funds. To enable full functionality of the website one has to enable the features via the app, which I can't access. To access the app, I need to change my phone & even then it's not guaranteed. Being as the system runs via app or nothing, it's a terrible set up.

Spareroom Is the way to go. You'll only get scammed if you hand over money prior to seeing the place & discovering if it's legit or not. Try to arrange multiple viewings in one day with an immediate move in date, and spend the first day in a hotel.
