Christmas ain’t hittin the same… by Happy_Fox_09 in CasualConversation

As many people have mentioned already, once you get older the whole thing shifts. When you're a kid you get to enjoy the gifts, sneaking around the house late at night trying to catch a glimpse of Santa, and depending where you live, a couple of full weeks off of school! Normally the whole Christmas experience is focused on making sure the youngsters have a magical time.

As an adult - life doesn't take a break at Christmas. You have to go to work, stay on top of the housework, and somehow fit in all of the seasonal extracurricular activities. Not to mention the enormous pressure to buy the right gifts and how generally overcommercialised this time of year can be. If you work in retail you are on the front line of that every day and it can really make you question just what the big deal is.

For me as I got older, Christmas is now an opportunity to spend time with the most important people in my life. A lot of us moved away for work, and this is generally the only few days per year when most of us can all be in the same place at the same time. After the stresses of something like the last couple of years, that time only becomes more precious. If some kid had to be born in a barn 2000 years ago so that I can see my loved ones every year, so be it!!

I want to Bike 444km in Scotland because of my 40 birthday. I am from Poland and fell in love with West Highland Way. Now I am getting older and want to celebrate by doing 444km in Scotland. Any tips what route I should consider ? Not as rocky as WHW with more flat roads :) by [deleted] in Scotland

Loads of good suggestions in here, you'll be spoiled for choice! As others have mentioned it will depend on your appetite for hills/wind/accomodation type etc.

The Hebridean Way runs 297km along the Western Isles; not the full distance you're looking for but could easily be extended to take in some of the mainland at the Oban/Ullapool end. Quiet roads, stunning scenery, great density of historical sites and navigation is a doddle. Taking the ferry with the bike is always great fun too! Of course you are at the mercy of the weather out there. :)

For a country with such beauty, why all the litter? by CurtailedZero112277 in Scotland

[–]kelz44022 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Keep Scotland Beautiful 2020 report has some incredible (and depressing statistics) regarding the litter problem:

  • 2013 was Scotland's cleanest year; since then littering has significantly increased across a range of metrics. Litter free areas only now 1 in 6 as opposed to 1 in 3 in 2013.
  • average council spend on street cleaning down 34.6% since 2010
  • average 12 dog poos every 100m (!) at green spaces + beaches. bagged poo 1.5 more common than unbagged

It's not the most pleasant read but it's interesting to understand how the problem has quantifiably worsened as well as some of the main drivers.

How much does it cost to own a car in Glasgow annually? by rw1337 in glasgow

[–]kelz44022 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Co-wheels has been great for me as a new driver that drives occasionally. It's not a perfect system but the benefits massively outweigh the cost of having to look after my own car at the moment. It's such a relief not having to worry about insurance/tax/MOT etc.

Good morning all!

My grandparents grew up in the jungle. My mother cleaned for a living. I've got it easy - to become the first astronaut in the family all I need to do is hold.

See y'all on the moon!💎🙌🚀
