I left my bicycle into a repair shop in August. The shop closed and my £7,000 bicycle was auctioned off for £400 against shop debts.

I have (I should say HAD) a Santa Cruz bicycle. Cost me £7,250 brand new. It had an issue in August, so I took it into a specialist bicycle repair shop. After that I was given the runaround for 2 months. "The parts haven't arrived from the supplier!" "Mechanic is on sick leave." In October I attempted to access the shop and found it closed and locked on three different occasions. They said they were doing urgent renovations for health and safety. On the 4th occasion I visited in November I noticed the shop was empty. I did some enquiries, contacted police (who told me it was a civil matter), and eventually I found the shop went into administration. Their stock, including my bicycle, was transferred to a local auction house. After speaking with the manager there I found out my £7,000+ bicycle was sold for a measly £400 against the repair shop debts. (I've found my bicycle on ebay sold b

Is this really what a normal winter is like here?

29 January 2026 @ 12:25 pm

Context: We (myself, my wife, and son) moved to London for work back in late September from Toronto. I knew that winters here are obviously a lot more mild than back home, but I'm honestly surprised by how warm it has been. There were a few days below freezing around Christmas and that's it so far. Meanwhile my brother in Toronto has been shovelling snow multiple times last week after they got 60cm in a weekend, all while wearing multiple layers of pants and sweaters since its -20. I do find it absolutely hilarious how many people i see wearing those massive puffy coats in London. I never considered that people would buy a winter coat just for the fashion of it, rather than the function. So is this it? Does the temp here not really dip below freezing very often? Is February much colder? I will say, i do miss the snow. London would look so pretty under a blanket of some fresh fluffy white snow.

Which midwit comment annoys you the most when it comes to cars.

29 January 2026 @ 11:33 am

Mostly from non car people but also car people. You know the type. Mine has to be people blindly repeating whatever Clarkson said about a car (hurdur crossfire is a dog doing a shit, American cars can't go round corners, jaguar is a Mondeo etc) the list goes on or The very tired 1980s joke about BMW's and indicators. My god just let it die (FWIW I don't have a bmw). Even worse when they're referred to as 'turn signals' or 'blinkers' by someone British! submitted by /u/UmAhkchuallySweaty to r/CarTalkUK [link]

It baffles me when I hear brits say "I wouldn't die for this shithole"

29 January 2026 @ 11:17 am

Like, ok, if UK is a shithole, what countries are seen as not "shitholes" to brits? I am pretty sure 95% of countries in the world are undeniably worse than UK and can be considered shitholes, so what countries to brits look up to and say " this is a country I would die for" . It just baffles me brits can't see how good they have it compared to most of the countries in the world and they still find themselves calling a shit place, shithole or whatever submitted by /u/Lil_Hater112 to r/AskBrits [link] [comments]
