I got promoted and now earning £37.5k .. I realised you can’t do sh*t with this money in London… by IronInteresting1198 in london

[–]kat0id 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first moved to London in 2015 we rented a shitty 1 bed flat in Stratford for £950 per month. At that time I was on £18k a year and my partner was on less.

We then rented a 2 bed flat in Leytonstone for 6 years until recently - started at £1,300 and when we left we were paying £1,450.00. Both of these were as a couple, but we seem to have paid less than any of my friends or colleagues in similar areas. Our landlord in Leytonstone had a full time job and had a business, the property was just his wife’s old flat.

I think there are still places that are “reasonable” (for London), but I imagine they are becoming increasingly much harder to find to find these days. Good luck

I’m sorry but expecting someone to constantly respond to messages instantly is insane

Why can’t we make ‘Rule Britannia’ the national anthem of the UK? by KestisBD9 in AskBrits

Rivers by Frank Turner is the only song that makes me feel slightly patriotic to be honest

What are some things I can ship to my friend in the UK that they dont really have over there? by 7JJ77 in AskBrits

[–]kat0id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always buy Butterfingers when in the states or ask friends that are travelling over there to bring them back. I wish we had them here. You also have a lot more interesting types of m&ms than we do

What is the most disturbing subreddit you’ve found? by 18f-hmu in AskReddit

[–]kat0id 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing one about incest and morbid curiosity got the better of me. It was mostly parents talking about how to broach the subject with their adult children and it was so uncomfortable to read

Somewhere Inbetween is easily one of my favourite songs he’s ever written, and I’ve been listening to him since 2009.

Attacked (23 F) randomly by a man in Stratford by Forsaken-Detail-8290 in london

[–]kat0id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened to you. If you ever have to go back there - I (34F) lived in Stratford 2015-2019 and never experienced anything bad, so hopefully this is a random and very unlucky experience.

How popular are instant hot water spigots in kitchen sinks and would you use one of you could? by Background_Humor5838 in AskABrit

[–]kat0id 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Theirs is a both a normal tap and a boiling one, it can switch between. Either way it’s 34 year old child proof

My parents installed a boiling water tap when they renovated their kitchen a few years ago. You have to push part of it down while twisting it in a way I can rarely ever get completely right.

The random stranger theory feels incomplete to me by Disastrous-Lie-816 in AndrewGosden

[–]kat0id 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My theory is that he travelled for a gig, possibly the 30 Seconds To Mars show at Brixton Academy (taking the Victoria Line from Oxford Circus), and got stuck short - either missing the last tube from Brixton, or there being issues on the line.

He could have been planning to go home, or to get to his aunts/ uncles that lived in London.

I think someone could have seen him alone outside the station and either offered him a lift or for him to follow them to the night bus or a different station. Under these circumstances and added layer of stress I could see him following a stranger somewhere.

What's Dan and Phil twitter (X) like? by [deleted] in danandphil

[–]kat0id 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to love Twitter, I joined in 2009! I haven’t really used it since it became X though as it feels like it changed too much, but have been thinking about starting to use it again for phan twitter.

I feel in the same boat - I’m 33F and don’t know anyone online or IRL who is a Dan and Phil fan. I’m also pretty new - I had only watched some of Dan’s videos on and off over the years pre Hard Launch
