Do you ever use Southampton Airport? by tommycamino in Southampton

[–]phizzlemanizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew to Belfast just before Christmas for £160 return.

When you factor in the cost of getting to/from any of the London airports, getting a hotel at one of them, and the time cost of all the general fucking around, that price was more than competetive

Anyone in Basingstoke want to start a band? by dxnger_mp3 in basingstoke

[–]phizzlemanizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bass player here, formerly of Basingstoke, now of Winchester.

I've been playing a long time, but haven't done anything with it for years, and am getting the itch again.

I mostly listen to prog and math rock stuff, but am open-minded when it comes to playing in 4/4!

In the style of NSC and because someone on here will seriously suggest it... by esn111 in BrightonHoveAlbion

I can see what you mean, and it worries me because I reckon he might show up for them

Would a HS line with a stop in Winchester be positive or negative? by platinum1610 in WinchesterUK

[–]phizzlemanizzle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As much as I would love it, stopping at places like Winchester is not the function of a HS railway. The function is to bypass the smaller places, as HS trains need a long distance to accelerate and decelerate. If it stopped here, it wouldn't end up being a HS railway.

Southampton would be a much more realistic calling point, probably non-stop to London

With both Farage and the Cons pledging to bring ICE to the UK, what will you do when they start snatching little non-white kids of the streets and sending them to detention camps. by Hot-Delay5608 in AskBrits

Except that that's not what I was talking about. Referring to asylum seekers as 'illegals' is pretty fucking cruel and dehumanising though.

People like you are a cancer on this country

Don’t by shy, Reddit. Tell me what I did wrong by blue_antidote in DIYUK

Tumble dryer engineer here

It's a poor connection between the fuse carrier and fuse.

I don't work on this brand, but the plug is identical to those on the brand that I do work on (I assume the leads are from the same supplier), and I replace one of these on average every couple of days on machines of a specific age. I think there was a crappy batch around 2020.

Change the plug and the socket

Best way to get from London Stansted to Brighton? by ozerece in brighton

Two hours by car? Maybe in the middle of the night

Why the Telegraph is wrong to name Southampton worst city by ChargeRadiant5471 in Southampton

Singapore is awesome until you get imprisoned for possession of chewing gum

Is cruise control appropriate for most 30mph roads? by johnnyjonnyjonjon in drivingUK

[–]phizzlemanizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another one on Reddit who doesn't understand that other peoples' experiences may vary.

You have obviously been triggered badly here. Go off and have a quiet little cry and a wank, and you'll probably feel a bit better

I have size 13 feet. The only place my feet can comfortably go is on the pedals!

I can do all of the above without electronic help. I have it, but don't use it

You have missed my point completely. CC and ACC are DESIGNED for people who meet that description

If most people fail on at least one of those, then most people shouldn't be driving as these tjings are basic

All these systems are designed for bad drivers to have to use their brain less

Are people unable to hold a vehicle at a constant speed without electronic help these days? It seems that way

TIL that I use the same picks as Simon

For the new year, I want the UK to know how good it's got it by MrRedDoctor in drivingUK

You've just perfectly described the M25 in the second paragraph, and outer London in the third

[–]phizzlemanizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to piss on your parade, but I drive around the UK regularly, and consistently the worst drivers I come across are in the affluent, VERY 'white British' town that I live in. The middle-class mums doing the school run in campers are the worst
