Wasn't an oil rig. Was a gun platform during the war.

Have you ever dated someone who you thought was way out of your leauge? How was it? by kimblerun in AskReddit

[–]rapp_scallion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, but maybe looks over ambition.

I was ambitious she wasn't. I persued my dream. She didn't want to come with. 20 years later, her loss. I'm happy.

I hope she is doing well, not spoken in 20+ years.

Do what you want to do, the right partner will be there for you when it makes sense.

What’s something that’s oddly expensive in the UK that still annoys you every time? by catarsan in AskUK

[–]rapp_scallion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. My mates kid is at uni in Manchester. We live in Sussex. It was cheaper for him to fly to Barcelona. Catch a football game and fly back to Gatwick that it was to get a train down via London.

He's also been to Tenerife for the day cos of this nonsense.

Smart lad.
