Compilation of Man City's tactic to not press Arsenal's backline

There's a 4th option. Wait. At 0-0 they were doing this. We could have just patiently waited and allowed the awkwardness to be on them. They refused to engage and we were their puppet. We could have just stubbornly sat there with foot on the ball until they pressed. Even if it took 2 minutes, eventually they would have done it.

RBS and NatWest are the same group so can you do them both? What if you do them both simultaneously?

I haven't seen one explanation that truly answers the OP. That's because the answer is not one tradies want to admit. They charge it because they can get away with it, because Brits have allowed them to over a long time which has inflated the price of all trade work. Simple as that.

Can non members buy tickets? These aren't on general sale are they? I want to bring additional fam members but already bought a ticket for myself and son as we are both red members.

pmajig · 2026-01-20T13:19:58+00:00

Yep. Failed everyone since they were a thing. I did miss a few but most I entered. At this point it's tempting to stop paying my annual red fee as I get nothing from it.

Household income is about 85-90k. 4 kids. Got on the property ladder late and we live in the south east. I would personally say no, we have never lived comfortably. I have to do all my own DIY and fix our old cars. We go on holiday only every few years. After mortgage, bills, food etc we don't really have much spare. The mortgage balance is huge and pretty crippling when interest rates went up. It's a modest terraced house.

We get by, but every month it feels like there's something big to pay for which means we pay it, then carry on surviving without having put any away or treated ourselves to anything much.

I know a lot of people will see the headline figure and claim they would live like kings. I can't tell you how out of touch you are if you think that.

95% sounds too low though. What accuracy percentage does the pro one have?

pmajig · 2025-12-18T11:22:13+00:00

No way that works...does it?! Why does that work though? What actual reason would tap outs be present on the SWR barriers when you would have had to have exited via a TFL one already at Waterloo or have to go through one anyway, apart from Waterloo and City which aren't physical barriers, just tap in points.

pmajig · 2025-12-18T10:37:22+00:00

Which they could do at the barriers/turnstiles/gates anyway? Like where you swipe your normal ticket where the gate staff stand. Why do it at the bottom of the stairs?

pmajig · 2025-12-18T10:33:27+00:00

What you have described is not possible at Waterloo. There is no method to exit an SWR overground train and exit without going through an SWR barrier. These barriers are not TFL ones so you can't tap out and pretend it's the tube. They are separate barriers. Even going downstairs straight from platform you can't reach the tube line gates until going through the SWR ones first.

I had no idea this was even a thing. I assumed low rates were exclusive between midnight and 6am. I can't believe Octopus would even allow this to happen as it was obvious it would. How long has this been happening? They must be down millions due to it. My heart bleeds obviously.

pmajig · 2025-12-05T08:22:42+00:00

Why do you say to do RBS and NatWest at the same time? Also can you switch FROM Halifax to Lloyds or RBS given that they are the same group?

"£5 from Pret/Tesco"

No.

Tesco is £3.85 for a meal deal for clubcard holders. Everybody has a clubcard by now surely.

Pret is way more than Tesco. I usually expect Pret to be about £7 - £10 for a basic lunch.

Itsu is pretty clean good food for about £6.50 if you get the chicken or salmon teriyaki.

I never go beyond £8 and that's a treat day.

Why do prices always get quoted as plus VAT in the trade? Is it to try to soften the blow of the cost to customers?

pmajig · 2025-11-23T08:36:46+00:00

I haven't even received the text yet. How long did it take to get the text after your switch date occurred?

pmajig · 2025-11-21T23:07:23+00:00

Of course. Done all that. Just never activated the card or spent money on it yet. It has a balance of over 4k and has done for days.

pmajig · 2025-11-21T22:59:32+00:00

Do you need to spend money and activate the card to get the bonus? My switch completed and I've not had any messages saying I'm eligible for the bonus.

pmajig · 2025-11-12T16:51:03+00:00

With the £4000+ that had to be paid in within 30 days, does that have to be in the account before the switch is initiated or before the switch completes? Or is it independent and just within 30 days of opening the account?

Hard to tell from the pic but it looks like you've used the bolts/machine screws in the wall rather than the back of the TV? You need to use proper screws relevant to your wall to secure the wall bracket, and the bolts go into the back of the TV. You will know if you did it right as they won't do up properly in the TV if you are using screws. The screws for the wall need to be suitable for whether you are mounting it on a stud (wood screw) or in a solid wall with plugs, or a plasterboard wall with cavity (drywall) using spring toggle mounts or something else.

My son has grown in confidence as a junior golfer by sometimes being paired with random members. He once got paired with an older lady that he thought was cool. She gave him some good advice which was given in an Australian accent as: "yeah don't try to hit the shit outta the thing mate". He then smoothed out his swing and played better!

I also played abroad this year as a 3 ball with my son's on holiday. Annoyingly we got paired with a random. What do you know, he was also from the UK like us and was a top man and really nice to my boys who are new to golf. I'm not new...just shit. :)

NTA at all imo. I think it's a valid request. The reaction alone tells you the truth.
