As @MrBaklava mentions it surprisingly ends well... my favourite part is when the EMT asks what speed she was going.

If anyone wants to see what crashing at 120mph looks like whilst wearing a pair of nikes and some jeans. https://youtu.be/MtN46wLGGMk?si=kjw2czSeRa72Vq6V&t=657

Brutal skin rash!

Oh something I can answer, I learned last year in a manual. I passed with 1 minor for not overtaking a slow lorry on a short dual carriageway (definitely not bitter on that) ... Anyway, the biggest obstacle people have is confidence on the road. As I had been riding my bike and I'm 30 roundabouts and tricky junctions did not bother me and hitting speed limits was a breeze.

The first two lessons I just stalled the car a bunch but every lesson I forgot about the gears more and more. Honestly the gears are the least difficult part, it's being confident and you have that advantage.

I currently drive an auto and we also have an old golf which I haven't been arsed to sell and it's manual, I never have to think about the gears at all when I drive it to the recycling centre once a month.

Manual licence for me as I love older cars and autos on holiday are still expensive...

Edit. Pass your theory and book a test slot, you can then use an app to auto book a sooner slot, I was able to get a test within a month that way.

Currently using Purdy Collosus, much better but you are right about the shedding, even after prepping them.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Price drop, should probably put some better pics up!

I need a new floor in my upstairs office, may go cork or try something else, wood too noisy?

Thankfully the bedroom gets no direct sunlight so should be fine there.

I want to dust off my Danelectro, potentially might swap it for a tele or jaguar. Do I go down the amp + pedals or interface + digital amps route? Will probably be playing at low volume due to neighbours + baby

Great, I think it's a go!

I have someone coming around on Monday to measure my daughters bedroom to have colour flooring cork installed. Anyone here have this flooring? I'm pretty set on it.

I flicked through the YouTube link above but I had the same thoughts. We have no money, had to borrow from friends. Well I'd be pissed if you were off to morocco with my money haha.

Get down to Carpet Right!

Stabbed by a youth in a balaclava = Sorry sir, not enough evidence
Stomping on said youth = That will be 2 years for GBH and probably some payments for rehab

I'm near Bristol... waiting for price!

I'm pretty sure that's been up for a long time as I entertained that idea a while back, can probably get a good deal on it.

I have a lot of painting to do, can someone recommend decent rollers. Currently using Harris from B&Q and not finding them great.

If you want to feel poor, watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofN0zXwa_5E

I know someone who bought a townhouse in Bermondsey, easily 1.5million. Still looks for yellow stickers in Tesco haha.

StrongLifts is really just providing me with a structure to keep to.

I think you'd be better off using an app like https://fitbod.me/

I'm also doing Stronglifts. I'd suggest adding assistance work to keep things interesting or switch to the madcow variation.

The barbell rows are important. I just hold the bar at the thigh and return to thigh rather than start/return to the floor. I will need to change this when the weight increases.

BW for me is 100KG, currently at 65kg on squat... long way to go.

Reminds me of this doc https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=n8ptBkIohHE

Popped up on my Facebook, love a dual headlight setup.

I have a push mower (I don't mind it) and I have to strim the grass first if its above 10cm, I'm looking forward to less growth over the winter!

Just under 25m2

The servicing costs alone are stupid.

If it was my bike, I'd be changing the exhaust! So underwhelming.
