    2024 Grand National 13th April

    Yes, I guess a comment like, "I see horse killing season is with us again, does it ever go away?" did detract from the thread title, but I won't hold that against you. How on earth has the debate been lost? The points I made were quite accurate and relevant to your narrow minded and inaccurate...

    2024 Grand National 13th April

    No need to apologize on your spelling and grammar Hiltz, I'm not here to judge you on that, only to comment on what I consider your narrow minded and emotional opinion. It’s interesting how a person can read something, yet due to a blinkered mindset interpret the information in a totally...

    2024 Grand National 13th April

    You’re obviously quite entitled to your point of view Hilts, but I do find it primarily based on emotion and not enough on fact or understanding. On the whole, horses are bred for human use, much the same as cattle, sheep, and pigs to name a few. No use for them, no horses, it’s as simple as...

    F1 2024 season

    Should see lots of improvement in that then.........possibly, maybe, perhaps, or not.

    Best band you've seen live?

    Difficult to nominate a ‘best’, because there have been so many. I suppose if I think back, the first to spring to the forefront would be Genesis back in the early 80’s at the NEC, Birmingham. Saw them again in November 2021 in Tronno. Great to see, but extremely disappointing to see Phil...

    Best band you've seen live?

    I saw Status Quo at Bingley as well back in those far off days, saw them a few times at various venues. Fun days. Going to catch up with them again for old times sake when I'm over this spring. I think there's only Rossi left of the originals now though.

    Hiking thread

    I’m coming over for three weeks in May and during that stay I’m considering taking a hike up to High Cup Nick, so I have a question. I’ll be travelling up from Worcestershire/Herefordshire, so course I will have to check the weather forecast and pick my day, but are there any other websites I...

    Avanti west coast trains

    If an average annual salary of £60,500 is used and to keep it simple, use a 39 hour week, then that's basically £29+/hr before any extras or overtime. That seems like a decent financial reward for the work and conditions involved. As a basic comparison of salaries for other occupations; A...

    Avanti west coast trains

    Is that 'actual time' a basic rate, plus the additional fee, or an overtime rate, say time and a half, plus the additional fee?

    Avanti west coast trains

    I read the same Cleavers, up from £125 to £600, which is where the 380% increase came from. At first glance, it looked a little excessive and I wondered why such an increase was warranted.

    F1 2024 season

    It would have probably been red flagged at any other time in the race. The car was right in the middle of the track with debris all around and Russell still inside!! The time in the race shouldn't make any difference to the decision.

    What is a train drivers salary in the UK?

    Avanti west coast trains

    Of course that's true, but the conditions of work were not even comparable. If you want to use that line, then the same could be said for a whole multitude of occupations, surely train drivers would not be any different?

    Avanti west coast trains

    I'm trying to get a better understanding of this, because the last three times I've been over to the UK, strikes have forced me to cut short my time with my family and incur additional hotel expenses by having to take my train a day earlier if I was to catch my flight. How much does a train...

    F1 2024 season

    It doesn't make any sense to me, but this Joe is obviously far more knowledgeable than me about the workings going on in F1. With everything that is, or isn't going on at Red Bull, if Max had pulled a trick like Alonso yesterday, then the keyboard warriors would have been frothing at the mouth...
