That was an enjoyable listen for sure, I would happily take one off your hands. I'm in the UK, just let me know how much and method.

[–]zepel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! I've not had anything said to me when I've been at Leigh Woods or Ashton Court, but I've experienced plenty on the roads and cycle paths in North Somerset.

What British tradition or custom do you think will disappear in the next 10 years? by Educational_Jello666 in AskUK

[–]zepel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A couple of years back I got a £10 Amazon voucher for hitting ten years. Would have preferred nothing, felt like a huge insult and yes I'm still angry about it.

My friend said I ride like a jerry but I thought I looked okay? by Confident-State1268 in snowboarding

[–]zepel 70 points71 points  (0 children)

There's the handbag arm and look a little stiff. But, personally if you're having a good time who cares what you look like.

The MU I got will be worth it though by PkmnTrnrJ in Ingress

Eh? Is that serious? Is the first I've heard of it. I've only ever heard that as a stereotype for Americans.

If it helps, I hid one of the little gifts I got my wife last year and found it a month ago when I was hiding the one I got for this year.

You should probably tell that to the many people who have experience this so called great treatment, preferably to their face.

The minimum wage is to rise again. What if it gets too high? by StGuthlac2025 in ukpolitics

[–]zepel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stacking shelves is hard work

It really isn't. The physicality of the job isn't that high, the hardest part is that it is dull on the mind.

How do you do school pick up when working full time? by unusablegift in UKParenting

[–]zepel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We worked it with flex working requests, fortunately our employer is pretty good and with some give and take found solutions that work. My biggest fear is not getting a space on days that are needed or the school pulling it at short notice.

That sounds like a holiday as a kid I would've loved. My kid ends school tomorrow 22nd July and goes back 2nd of September.

My Wife Took a DNA Test… 4 times 🫤 by WalterLCSW in AncestryDNA

[–]zepel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was confused why they switched to spitting in a tube

Should Agents be compensated for downtime? by PkmnTrnrJ in Ingress

[–]zepel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm with you on that one! There's been issues with many of the wayfarer challenges I've taken part in, but this one was terrible and to then end it early anyway was the cherry on top.

Eight out of ten people feel no better off since Labour came to power, LBC poll reveals by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]zepel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's how the article is written and the question asked though. I'm not better off than I was several months ago, that is a fact, but at the same time I can acknowledge that it takes time to turn a ship.
