    Feel anxious about learning to drive.

    I was 32 when I passed my driving test. I was so nervous thinking I couldn’t do it, didn’t think I was ready for the extra responsibility/rules to follow. But once you have done it, it all becomes second nature.

    Christmas/Halo MCC build

    Hmm a ryzen 3500 paired with a 5500 xt might be pretty decent for a mid range gaming pc. Amd say the 5500 is a 60 fps + aaa title card and a 90 fps + e-sports card @ 1080p which would be fine.

    Christmas/Halo MCC build

    I want to build a new PC for my son as his current pc is +- 10 years old (i5 750, HD 7850) so I’m just in the early planning stage. It’s main use will be Halo, hopefully it’s released before Christmas :p and maybe Modern warfare as well if he wants it. I don’t need the most expensive components...

    Night Shifts

    Worst thing I find about working nights is sleeping during the day in the middle of summer.

    Nora Quoirin death - no foul play

    I can’t imagine the horror than Nora’s parents are going through. I have a son who has Autism and learning difficulties. I can fully understand how Nora left the holiday home and wondered off, then got lost. I’ll even bet that she saw or heard the people trying to find her but hid away because...

    First Car making odd sound at speed Wheel misalignment or wheel bearing ?

    I recently had a similar problem that I thought was a wheel bearing, turns out the tyre had a bump on it where it must have been damaged on a pothole or something. It made a rumbling noise that was only really noticeable at speed and the faster I went the louder it got.

    What good single player campaigns are there?

    Look at the Metro redux games, Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light. Really good games both of them. I haven’t played the newest one Exodus yet but I will be at some point soon.

    Bruges

    The ferry is good fun, it’s not a luxury experience but is enjoyable. Book the premier outside cabins if you go on the ferry as they have more room and a window and it’s not much more. It’s nice watching the sunset outside with a beer or 2 as it sails away from hull. The food in the buffet...

    Apex Legends BR

    Still struggling to get better at this game, pretty much game over as soon as I encounter another player lol. I'm not a bad player at cod games, maybe this game is just too different, also my first BR game. Glad it's a free game and didn't cost my anything . I will keep on trying though.

    Redundancy advice please.

    True but if you aren't told that you are **** at your job and that the managers think you are, then you don't have an opportunity to rectify that. You just carry on thinking you are doing fine. If they tell you that they think you are bad then at least you have the choice or chance to improve.

    Redundancy advice please.

    Well that's the sneaky thing that they have done here, is offer these guys a suitable alternative position and if they turn it down they lose their right to statutory redundancy pay. Win win for the company
