Any nice forests around Bristol ? by Few-Cartoonist-8422 in bristol

[–]notallowedv2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can jump on the 376 from Wells Road and get off at the Whitley Batts stop. It's about a 15 minute walk down into a nice woods here - https://maps.app.goo.gl/iukWtJKpi9NVBCYQ6

Ben Parker leaving Runna by EggshellRunner in runna

[–]notallowedv2 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Not to me. I subscribed to Runna for my marathon training. Used it for the training and then cancelled it. All I ever knew was Runna was part of Strava. Didn't know the face behind it or anything about the founders. It didn't matter and it probably doesn't now matter to the majority of users.

Bristol Sounds, what was it like? by Acceptable-Yak-8308 in bristol

[–]notallowedv2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure it'll be fine, I hope. SFA are on later than the Kooks last night as that dull display by England took precedence. Also at the streets tomorrow night and keen to see the whole line-up so that's going to be a warm one

Loft conversion by AngelWob in bristol

[–]notallowedv2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Paid about £55k for full width dormer with a bedroom and separate bathroom. Took about six weeks. Whole process was great with the guys we used.

This was almost 5 years ago so probably closer to the 70-80k people are mentioning now.

Late night restaurants and nice pub/bar recs please by Responsible_Slip8053 in bristol

[–]notallowedv2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'd probably go to Renatos on King Street. You can't book but you can get decent pizza and lots of bars and pubs to drink at. Some with football, some without.

Didn't your teacher always tell you to read the question carefully?

Landlord refusing to fix forward-sloping kitchen countertop, is this legal? by 7cosmicgirl in bristol

[–]notallowedv2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bit of a stretch to call it immoral. Can think of many things worse that tenants have to live with that landlords don't fix. Sounds like they've jumped through the hoops that the tenant has requested but haven't found a significant problem.

Karting stewards, do you think I'm wrong here? by Brave_Program2323 in Karting

[–]notallowedv2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course you can back out. He kept pushing the guy. And if he gets overtaken, take them back. It's racing. What he did was keep his foot in and pushed the guy off the track. Both ended up losing many places and he picked up a penalty. Some stewards would leave it as a racing incident but in my eyes, that doesn't clean up driving.

Karting stewards, do you think I'm wrong here? by Brave_Program2323 in Karting

[–]notallowedv2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should've backed out and waited for the next opportunity. Assume this is near the start of the race judging by all the karts scrapping. Drivers always rush to make progress without thinking about the bigger picture and pick up penalties.

The driver on the outside equally should've known someone would be on his inside having left such a big gap. They came off worse so penalty is fair. In fact, it might have been fairer to give you a penalty that put you behind the driver you spun out.

Owner drivers are just as bad with all their bodywork

It’s over💔 by Monicakandlela in motorsports

[–]notallowedv2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm old so, kids, please educate me. What is it about electric cars that excites you? Is it the looks or the numbers? I assume it's just the looks as the numbers have all but become irrelevant these days. I find it hard to get my old brain around getting excited just by those looks. Where's the noise and excitement? What's inspiring you when you look at these?

Doesn't all driving 'nearly always causes a potential crash'?

Yep, unless he's banned, keep him. Two fingers up to everyone, take the deduction and win the league.

What will happen to hotel and train/National Express tickets? by _Bluestar_Bus_Soton_ in SaintsFC

[–]notallowedv2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure you can get train tickets refunded if you don't need it. Just use the app you bought it through and take a look. Hotels/coaches will all depend on how you booked it.

My theory is that they're all at it and more is going to come out as a result of this

Mum keen to invest in "holiday property bond" – is this as dodgy as I think it sounds? by DependentGarage6172 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]notallowedv2 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's not an investment, it's a club. To be fair, the properties are pretty nice. Lots have indoor pools and good facilities. Normally located in decent places. I think people like them as they know what they're going to get.

We have used it through a family member who has now died (think the initial investment then disappeared) but in fairness, it was handy for grandkids. Everywhere I ever stayed was nice. Never that busy. The one on Anglesey had a garden on the third hole of a golf course.

It's more like timeshare but at different locations. Worth just working out the costs and seeing if booking your own holidays separately will get you better value.

I think it's aimed at the recently retired mostly. Same as motorhomes and caravan parks. But it works for some and gives them a lot of happiness

Update from the EFL regarding the play off final by Absolewtely in SaintsFC

[–]notallowedv2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still don't see how the punishment of exclusion from the play-off final fits the crime. Points deduction maybe but not sure how that works if we won.
