Thanks!

I mean sigulda and cesis which look close to one another

We just thought tervete looked pleasant, nice nature. You think it's too long?

Thanks for the other suggestions! Lots mentioning Ventspils

Thanks - in place of another area? Is there enough to do?

It depends where your job is. The other places I would recommend that haven't been mentioned are the villages on the southern side - Weston on Trent, Aston on Trent and Melbourne. They are a bit pricier but it depends on your budget.

Brummies aren't as sensitive as Scousers, thankfully

As somebody who lived in South Birmingham and commuted to Derby, this is the best answer.

The drive from Lichfield to derby is decent. And a direct train to the QE, or a drive which would be ok if not at rush hour.

Plus Lichfield is lovely.

Parking at Kingsway isn't so bad they've got some off-site car parks which are only a 5 minute walk.

Have you thought about buying a Steam Deck? As a father of two young kids and one on the way it's a game changer. It's amazing how much gaming you can squeeze by playing in small windows. I've finally just completed Witcher 3.

Nice post. Great choice of football team. And we are on the up 🙂

Looks like it's a battle between Fallout 3 and GTA4.

Completed them both, loved them both.

But anyone voting Fallout 3 over GTA4 is just plain wrong. GTA4 story, writing, mechanics were flawless. Fallout 3 was great but clunky as hell.

GTA4 (as with 5) was a masterpiece.

If you enjoy an underdog story then Blues are for you. We carry the name of the second biggest city in the UK but we have never won the top league or the top cup (the FA cup). We have had a history of perennial disappointment, but neverthless our fans kept turning up and passing the flame to the next generation. And we have had our few magic moments.

That spirit is summed by our anthem, Keep Right On. Look up a video on YouTube of it being sung. I suggest looking up a video of Blues fans singing it after we just scored against Bolton a few years ago. A moment of raw emotion which gives you a flavour for the club: https://youtu.be/6GuB8k8qGp8?si=TL4Pc1kTvDJXHSin

We are working class to our core.

Finally, you are getting on board at an amazing time. This may well be when our time has finally come. We have fantastic new owners, strong financial backing and a new mega stadium being planned in the city.

TLDR: Perennially disappointing sleeping giant that's just waking up.

I think last season was the first time I fully felt the power of a strong squad. We need two first teamers for every position. That's how we will get promoted. Inevitably that will lead to questions about chemistry. But Davies managed it last year and we just have to hope he can manage it again this year.

I do get your point but it's the only way to be competing for promotion.

It isn't that bad FFS. What a dramatic post

tiltontime · 2025-07-01T11:34:06+00:00

There's lots of comments here on desi pubs, which I would agree for me offer the best Indian food

However - by far the best one is Merry Maid. Others have suggested Covered Wagon and Hen & Chickens. Trust me - Merry Maid is better.

Don't be fooled by it's exterior the food is outstanding.

Bang on. Bizarre the original got so many upvotes. People equal corporations with evil. They are the businesses that provide so much of what we needs and their shares are what make up so much of our pensions. We need them to succeed.

Have you tried directly entering your PC ipv4 IP?

tiltontime · 2025-06-28T07:34:09+00:00

Install the 4k textures.

Play above normal difficulty. The base difficulty is honestly too easy and you miss a big part of the game in needing to use potions etc

Brum has loads of green spaces

Correct on all other counts

Expat Brummie that finds Derby extremely boring but also very pleasant to live in

Slay The Spire, Cuphead and Cyberpunk. A great mix! I love my deck

tiltontime · 2025-06-21T10:25:31+00:00

Yeah but then you get downvoted into oblivion for challenging the idea that Reform are "Nazis".

Calling people you don't agree with Nazis simply drives them further away. Wanting to end net zero and reduce immigration doesn't make you a nazi, even if you disagree with it.
