I lost £5 betting on Scottish independence last time, I shall never forgive my country for that Though I do welcome another vote, as one of the major reasons behind a lot of the fear was leaving the EU and now we're being dragged out by the very people who once sold it to us as our only hope

Today was my first time voting and honestly I expected security of sorts, instead their were two women at a desk in a room, that was it, they barely even spoke to me and didn't seem to care what was happening, so for me personally how my ballot was marked was the least of my worries considering anyo...

I assume I shall spend today despairing at humanity, though I do that most days I'm honestly barely decided to vote in, my problem is not with Europe, my problem is with the masses of people who keep voting for bad governments and demanding to know why the government is bad...

Clipless pedals for beginners? What sort of sadist wrote this lol. Perhaps a marketing push? Either way I'm now trading mine in for a set of normal pedals again, having had about 25 miles of riding with them I can say my experience has been rather negative, simply stopping and starting again is a ni...

Moisturise? Dry skin is generally an easy fix with your run of the mill moisturiser, though I'm no expert on such things.

I think maybe the royal family benefited This reminds me of people talking about "the good old days" seemingly being oblivious as to what that actually means.

Tin foil hats at the ready! Them over the water are planning a similar exercise in California - at least over here its being restricted to a fairly sparsely populated area where impact will be limited Scotland has a population of like 5 million, London has about 6 million, so it's as good as it rea...

They generally these days are making sure modern militaries are prepared for an EMP attack, so it might be to do with that.

Why are we supposed to believe a single word that comes out the the mouth of a thief? By the very nature of their trade - dishonestly acquiring other folks possessions - they prove themselves deceitful and untrustworthy, so why should we believe anything they say about either their methods or their...

It seems a lot of people these days only want to acknowledge it if it's against women and can be used to further whatever belief they have, anything else is either sexism, social conditioning or just wrong (possibly all of the above). Really I don't see why we aren't just dealing with the issues, me...

Could they not just reserve a couple of car spaces for bikes? Then if money is the issue just charge accordingly to off set the cost for those with bikes, though if they only use say 2 car spaces it shouldn't be a huge financial problem and you can fit in a few bikes.

Back in my high school days me and a friend used to ride to school and it was pretty normal for us to use our mp3 players, though we didn't use the roads so it wasn't really an issue. Fast forward many years after college and I'm now using the roads after getting back in to cycling, my friend (a dif...

I don't see the harm in getting rid of the whole thing, but I also don't see much harm in keeping it other than a knee jerk reaction of sexism, as opposed to say a well thought out valid argument using evidence, rather than opinion. I know plenty of people, including women who wouldn't care less, so...
