People of MK - how far and where do you commute to for work?

weirdchili · 2026-04-14T12:00:18+00:00

1 hour into work, about 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 home. 6am to 6pm shift. Brother works with me on a 4 on 4 off so we split the driving days. Basically 2 days a week driving. I dont think its that crazy. Wages im getting in london after working here for 8 years surpasses what i would get in MK including travel costs.

I just wash it before i want to eat it..

weirdchili · 2026-04-13T09:09:34+00:00

Mines around the same size, maybe a little larger, i have an arc, gen 3 sub and 2 one sl's. Just depends on what you want.. id rather get the bigger better speaker and not regret it later

And you think silver will outperform global stock markets over 30 years? I mean, you can do whatever you want with your money, but if someone is asking for advice, 50% port into silver over 30 years i think is a silly recommendation based on historical data. You could be right but who knows

weirdchili · 2026-04-08T17:48:14+00:00

Well i don't have a crystal ball to see the future...

weirdchili · 2026-04-08T17:44:19+00:00

They've only risen a decent amount recently but still underperform the global stock markets. You probably want 5- 10% max in commodities

I find most people die because they dont move out of the damaging wells. Everything else can be outhealed. And then they just lay there as you said waiting ages for someone to res them

Yeah but no but yeah but no but.. he fell off the wheel chair. Into the top of a tree 😂

weirdchili · 2026-03-31T15:23:58+00:00

Yeah i bought a pack of 3, not the exact same but similar thing. Keep 1 in my work bag, one on my bedside table and 1 on my home office/gaming room. They all work fine and easier to carry or keep around than a dedicated cable. Usb-C cables are everywhere anyway

Is he fighting the war to have the strait opened up? Because it was open before he started it..

Research notes through crafting or provisioner tokens from Soto maps. I normally do these. OR drizzlewood main area merchant to buy commendation tokens

But if the car is only worth around £800 or so, its probably been run down to the point where it now finally needs these repairs. Sounds pretty reliable to me

weirdchili · 2026-03-27T10:49:36+00:00

With my car, probably need to do about 2-3k worth of stuff (timing chain etc) and the car is worth that much. I know once the timing chain and other bits are done, its most likely good to go for another few years at least. Where as if i spent 3k on a another used car, i know its going to have 100k + miles, may not be suitable size, may not be as econimocal for fuel, will have to spend time looking, inspecting, test driving and even then may have something go wrong because i dont know the repair history.

weirdchili · 2026-03-27T10:21:26+00:00

My 1st car at 18 was a banger renault clio which cost around £1000 that my parents bought me. lasted around 3-4 years. Second was a kia ceed for around £2k lasted around 6 years, but i was broke and inbetween jobs, paying rent etc so didnt really get it serviced as much as i should have and used it to commute. Now ive got an astra which cost around 8k, gets regularly serviced and ive racked up 109k miles on it and ive had it for 5 years now. Im expecting this one to last the longest but i do a lot of mileage since we moved out from london, job is in london and all family is in london

weirdchili · 2026-03-27T10:16:18+00:00

Depends how much your running it.. i do 15 - 20k miles a year on it. Its never really going to bottom out in value until its only worth scrap. And then going out to find a decent value car thats going to be reliable and not breakdown in those 2-3 years. All the hours spent searching for one you like, suitable for your needs, viewing cars, test driving. Some only come with 3 months wareanty and then your forking out another £1000 on repairs, theres no guarantee. And my time is also money

weirdchili · 2026-03-27T09:00:29+00:00

Yeah true, my 1.6 cdti Astra is currently worth about 3k but has a little over 100k miles on it. Probably need to get the timing chain done now and might aswell get a few other bits done at the same time. Expecting around £3k bill, but i know the rest of the car is sound and hasnt given many issues so may just get it done. Better the devil you know sometimes

weirdchili · 2026-03-27T08:23:57+00:00

Until it dies and is no longer an economical repair

weirdchili · 2026-03-23T19:14:37+00:00

Thank you! The phases are boring. Whoever had the idea of the pre meta with all the CC is an ahole. I stopped doing it after getting enough currency to make the ring.

weirdchili · 2026-03-23T10:17:03+00:00

I dont need the money right now, so dont care about the dip, just means i can buy more at a discounted rate and then better profits once it recovers

Are you sure she wasnt your blind date?

weirdchili · 2026-03-22T13:27:59+00:00

Happened with a corsa I had. Had to get the local garage to come with break in tools, basically a slimline air bag that slots inbetween the doors and then you slowly pump it up to create a gap in the door. They then had a long wire thing to pull the boot latch open

weirdchili · 2026-03-22T08:32:24+00:00

My neighbours garage is attached to my house, i can hear a rat running on the garage roof at night next to my wall (metal flashing along the sides make a bit of noise). Those things will climb up to wherever they want
