The main thing I ask about on-call is what the scope is and how many people are covering it.

There's one end where they have a kid who takes calls and literally 70% of them go to you, plus you are on call every other week because there's only three on the rota and one guy quit/is on holiday.

And then there's the other end where there's multiple on call teams and your team only gets called for very specific reasons, you are one of 5-6 people on the rota, on call bonus is massive plus 1.5*wage for every call out.

The video quality problem really winds me up. Not gonna canc though because I bought through Turkey and it costs less than a dollar a month.

The BBC news at 10pm on this was hard to watch. Boats across the channel full of Sudanese men standing on each other are no place for little girls.

Weren't Freddos 5p and now about 40p? So 8x. Not that your point isn't still valid. Wages have maybe doubled.

That is most definitely not a fun fact. It's bad enough having the Yanks telling us how to speak our own language!

Just the first of these would be massive. If after your 9 points wear off and you are back to 0 any further offence instantly is 9 points instead of 3 for 5 years then you aren't going to speed are you.

I lived with a lad last winter who said he never switches the heating on. I went back to pick up some stuff just after I moved out and it was 3 degrees inside the bedroom... No thanks. The government is completely failing people like him.

No way me too! I always had OPs problem until I bought it. I resent going away without it because it's that good.

For me that sexy accent is a Scottish one and I'm not talking Glaswegian council estate

That sounds 😍 amazing

 

I've read stuff on Reddit in the past about people charging your card multiple times or other general dodginess. I think I'll try not to get too drunk as one defence but being informed would be useful too. Anyone got some tips?

 

I'm sure I'm not the only one to have enjoyed the recent boom on YouTube of urban planning and transport content from the likes of NJB, citynerd and citybeautiful. Not to mention the one of videos from others like Adam something etc.

However they all either have an NA focus or a worldwide focus and I've not been able to find something similar regarding the UK of any quality. There's Gareth Dennis' podcast but it's a bit too difficult to engage with for non pros. Any thoughts or should I start my own channel?!
