If you’re flying internationally, will you always be willing to pay extra and do extra work to avoid being on a plane that makes a stopover in the US?

Yes. All the yes. Sod all legal rights when in an airport. Not worth the risk.

God plan. Anyone who is still thinking a US connection is a safe idea is a fucking idiot.

Yeah. Sometimes this place can suck.

Some. Not all.

Not all pubs are drink first. Food and socialising are also important things.

In rural areas it might be the only ‘communal’ space.

Still do.

I’ve been alcohol free since 7th April 2023 but it’s a stop on the way home to see mates that don’t game online.

UK pub that’s part of the community. We organise canal cleans / litter picks / quiz nights / charity events etc…

Pubs can be good and you don’t HAVE to drink booze. Bars now… They are a different story I feel.

On a side note I feel the ability to ‘legally’ drink (without a meal) from the age of 18 stops a lot of the idiotic drinking stuff I always hear about from over the pond.

Love quobuz. So happy i moved over.

Great for listening in the kitchen and during car drives. The Friday suggestions list is great as well.

Front room has the vinyl player and book shelves!

Ahh. Thanks again for the kind comments. 😇 Always great to receive that sort of thing from trolls, always impressed they can work a keyboard and spell.

I do actually! Thanks for asking and being interested! Also yes, you are correct, my reaction was very rational to your utterly awful comments. 👍

In my work capacity I’ve supported very lonely permanently online clusterfucks like yourself so can recognise your bullshit.

Oh for petes sake. Step outside your moms basement and touch grass you massive bellend.

I dont care who is on the list. Left / right / other.

I just want to see the fucking list.

Good suggestion! Thanks!

I had chips (fries for the americans) with hot mayo sauce and a european cola.

Day off work - nice to chill, play a computer game and eat garbage for once. I usually eat healthy as possible, nice to treat myself.

I mean; To be fair, I assumed it was but I’m a) not american and b) not the president of the USA.
