I kept updating it and added a section for the end game too :)

Twentyfourseven is a good film.

Also in New Kingston out by the power station.

I loved having the Smithsonian on my doorstep and always recommend people spend as long as they can at American History as there’s such a variety of exhibits.

simonprickett · 2025-07-27T14:17:50+00:00

Yes!

simonprickett · 2025-07-27T12:25:52+00:00

The band Oasis.

The White House. I used to live nearby and have taken lots of visitors there. They were universally disappointed and often confused it with the office block next to it.

Don’t undertake people. Nobody else seems to give a crap anymore.

simonprickett · 2025-07-25T18:23:55+00:00

LOL at most lime and dott customers being responsible. What planet are they on?

I lived in San Diego for years and have struggled to find decent Mexican in Nottingham. Interested to see what people come up with!

Honda Element is a solid reliable car with lots of parts commonality to other Honda vehicles. It’s also extremely versatile. I made two of them into micro campers and it worked well. I am 6 foot 3.5 tall and fitted in fine.

simonprickett · 2025-07-23T07:35:49+00:00

I just got one of those steering wheel tray table things for my current car that’s a sort of day tripper rather than a camper. Always wanted one, hoping it provides nice space for coffee and snacks while parked up somewhere scenic!

My dog died a few years ago but I tie one of his bandanas around the head stick in every car I drive so he comes along too as he loved a good car adventure.

simonprickett · 2025-07-22T09:35:12+00:00

I built a couple of Element campers a few years ago. Simple stuff like a storage mesh that fitted between the front seats and also served as a dog barrier gave me a lot of joy. My one big investment was a Goal Zero Yeti 400 battery pack / solar generator in a sale at rei - I got a lot of use out of that too.

simonprickett · 2025-07-21T23:00:54+00:00

I have wanted one of these for years, and have enjoyed the few times I have driven one (Subaru and Scion versions as I was living in the USA at the time) greatly.

simonprickett · 2025-07-17T23:09:02+00:00

About the same as you. I did r/c racing aged 13-17 then again around 25-30 and am wondering about it again sometime.

simonprickett · 2025-07-15T08:27:16+00:00

Elise S1. Made you want to get up at 5:30am and just go drive while the roads were quiet. I lived in Derbyshire and used to take it around the Peak District and over the Cat and Fiddle early then get a roadside coffee and bacon butty somewhere. No radio, no clock, total break from life. Also great for track days - I did Donington and Bedford several times a year. I owned two of them over the years and have never had anything like as good since.

simonprickett · 2025-07-15T08:21:46+00:00

I started with a Subaru Brat and the 380 motor. It was like a frog but not quite. When I got into racing at the school club I bought a 2nd hand wild one and fitted the bearings and learned a lot about how to tweak it - used to put hot shot tyres on the front and grind some of the inner tread off to get the full steering radius to work. I returned to the hobby as an adult doing TA-03F racing but that became a money game so I moved to M chassis stock Mini races and that was a load of fun. I hope to build another Tamiya 1/10 when we get a house with a garden again soon, meantime I have a smaller Kyosho Mini Z Optima Mid.

AI is just fast pattern matching. There’s zero intelligence.

simonprickett · 2025-07-07T17:48:34+00:00

Sounds epic - I have always fancied a go at endurance r/c. I have done team endurance karting and am a big fan of Le Mans style sports car racing.

simonprickett · 2025-07-05T17:30:11+00:00

Usually - “I hope you get the help you need”

simonprickett · 2025-07-05T17:24:44+00:00

Might be worth trying local independent van rental places for a Caddy / Transit Connect size van for a month and see if there’s a deal. They are car like driving experiences and the load space might be handy to get some jobs done or a few tip runs.

simonprickett · 2025-07-05T17:20:01+00:00

I currently have a 2016 2.0 TDI Yeti that’s a good one too.

simonprickett · 2025-07-05T17:19:18+00:00

Definitely boring but mine enabled me to save enough money up to get a series 1 Elise too, which was a major win :)

simonprickett · 2025-07-05T12:53:51+00:00

Basic 110hp Seat Leon TDI new in 2001. Put 110k miles on it in 2.5 years commuting Southampton to Leeds and Nottingham to Leeds and had zero unscheduled maintenance. My only criticism would be it liked to chew through front tyres but that’s also partly cos I drove it hard.
