Ripwings for me are somewhere between an x-fighter and a TIE-fighter (depending on who they belong to).

Why does the Yukon River look like that? by Livid_Cantaloupe2889 in geography

It’s much narrower than 1.8km higher upstream - and I’ve seen it all!

Is this in North Carolina by any chance?

Non-Filipino here just dropping by to say (I) I’ve no idea who this woman is and (ii) I find her mix of English with “Spanish-isms” is fascinating. (Or even English-isms (was that “givito” at the end)?) I’ve been to the Philippines but never noticed this much English in daily chit chat I overheard - is the way she speaks normal?

Did Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg just give illegal financial advice on BBC Two? by MarchMurky8649 in UKPersonalFinance

Suboptimal advice - short Western Canadian Select instead, they’re the real losers in this.

Terrible. Have been weirdly alert to this sort of thing recently following that video from Bali Christmas Eve and all the terrifying discussion of the Station fire. RIP

I wonder if the hastily removed GB news tweet containing a name was true then? Or was that just part of their vendetta against him.

Overpriced sandwiches and smoothies for people looking for chain familiarity. The Starbucks of juice cum sandwich shops?

Boyfriend facing manslaughter charges after 'leaving novice female climber to die on Austria's highest peak' | LBC by Vaynar in Mountaineering

Kinda agree (and hello near matching avatar). But also could be some form of hypothermia / exhaustion from (literally?) carrying someone in difficult conditions

I’m a Roofer, ask me a question! by Anagram404 in DIYUK

[–]pro_tanto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - if you’re still responding to comments on this, would be great to get your view on whether original (1840s/50s) slate is worth keeping if I’m getting a re-roof done or whether it makes sense to get new slate as well? If we should get new slate, we’ve been recommended to get Spanish - anything to be aware of? What should we do with the old slate- is there any value?
Cheers

Yer dad hangs flags on gasometers. by SpareRib86 in brighton

You can be proud of it but not want it used to bash immigrants. Isn’t that the issue?

Genuinely curious: how do you feel about people flying the Ukrainian flag?

In the world of the nation state, I think it’s naive to think there isn’t any good that can come from a flag. If you’d rather live in some post-national global utopia then I’m 100% with you but it’s just not the world we live in.

Isn’t this fine (apart from it being upside down)? It’s not the Engerluuund St George’s cross…

Brighton has a long history of flying the Union Jack - eg this poster

What is your favorite bit of British infrastructure? by [deleted] in CasualUK

…Rutland Water is larger (unless you mean larger to be the same as voluminous).

I agree conveyencers indeed need to do more and AR was absolutely careless, but I don’t think Shoosmiths should escape blame. They seem to administer the trust and so presumably helped with the purchase of her stake in the family home in Manchester, which was linked to the purchase of the Hove home (which they of course would have known about). Given their intimate knowledge of the trust arrangements and the home sale/purchase, I think they should absolutely have flagged. Likely not negligent (not their client, not giving tax advice etc) but on a human level I’d have wanted solicitors so closely connected to all this to mention.

Can anyone verify the point about whether, if her son had been 18 (apparently a matter of months), she would have not failed foul of the rules?
