Roadkill is no more. A random Brit gives his thoughts.

I love Roadkill and am saddened it is no more (albeit one final series is yet to be aired). Everyone else is talking about it so I thought I'd join in. That show means a lot to me and is an inspiration.

Should you move to rural Wales? What is it REALLY like?

I moved to rural Wales 14 years ago. There is some good and some bad about how that went. What is the reality of living here? Do you need to speak Welsh? Can you live without the convenience of city life? Just some personal thoughts of mine. You're welcome to disagree or have you found the same? #wales #rural #betterlife

    be aware also of collisions down the narrow roads as many locals drive too fast, it rains forever also, service is sloooooooooooooow too much chat in supermarkets, hospitals particularly Bronglais in Aberystwyth are very good, housing is cheaper but has gone up a lot in the last few years , hard to find anyone to do any work at all ie gardener, cleaner etc you may as well go self employed as it seems they all want £15hour minimum and thats the bare minimum.

    Glad to hear you're taking a bit of time out. I hope knowing that the unit is full of paused projects isn't causing undue stress. As much as they're all worthy causes, a less stressed Ian should take priority over simple project count, as exciting all the projects can be. At least you acknowledge the ups and downs of full-time UA-cam, and seem to do a fantastic job managing that and reminding us viewers of the necessity of a healthy work-life balance.

    I discovered your channel just after you got back to Wales from here (Australia). I've become addicted to your videos. Thanks to you I'm now a Citroen Xantia owner. About a month ago I bought a spare one with 450,000kms on it for spares and I drove it 1000kms home from Queensland. It drove so well, I now want to restore it. I nearly bought another one two weeks ago but I thought having three would be ridiculous so I bought an excellent 1990 V6 Alfa 75 instead. Life is great in cars with character!

    Oh dear, as layers of management and educational theory aim to make assessment fairer, the burden on the learners gets heavier and heavier. When I were a lad, we didn't even do mock GCEs and A levels, and that kind of sudden death is a bit extreme. But the alternative seems to be a world where assessment is the focus practically all the time. Little time for the joy of learning (for those for whom it is a joy), let alone being young and maybe foolish.

    A portable gas stove, kettle, hot water bottles, and if you've got access to water at a campsite, you can soon generate lots of 'sleeping warmth'. Layers of bedding and sleeping in sweat shirts and joggers, you can be toast. I've slept in the back of a Transit Van in winter conditions. Mind you, expect some condensation in the morning

    What is it with the UK these days, an inch or two of snow and everything comes to a grinding halt, I can remember the winter of 62-63 trudging through 2 feet of snow to school a few mile away, the few teachers that were late or missing travelled by train, the morning ones often delayed whilst the tracks and third rail de-iced or cleared of overnight snow. Buses running as normal, often delayed though, but fitted with chains on drive wheels. The Milkman as regular as ever but was a shortage of milk bottles as many buried under snow on peoples door steps not seen and collected by the milky. Come on people, get prepared for real winter weather the start of November, set of chains and a folding shovel, entrenching tool - for the use of in stores issue parlance, in the boot along with some strips of old carpet to place under spinning wheels, attached to rear by rope so one doesn't have to stop until on a firm surface with some grip.

    • @grahamleiper1538
      @grahamleiper1538 3 дні тому

      I've done Hessian sacks on ropes rather than carpet. Not old enough to remember '63, but keep a small snow shovel in the car and use winter tyres. If it's bad enough for chains travelling can pretty much wait. Modern plastic bumpers will be destroyed if the snow's that deep anyway. North of Scotland gets a bit more snow, makes more sense to be ready for it here. Driving in snow is easy, dealing with traffic in snow is a nightmare.

      @@grahamleiper1538 Whatever happened to the grit bins on street corners, people cleared the road outside their house and spread the grit, salt is useless when below -10, gritted flat frozen surface is better than rutted frozen slush. A local Farmer, they are responsible for clearing roads around their farms, used the yard scraper to clear snow down to about 2" deep, spread grit with the spreader then rolled the surface flat, all done at the same time with all attached to an old Massey, sometimes he'd borrow my Landy as had a rear PTO if the Massey wouldn't start, yard scraper jury rigged to front bumper, mounting eyes welded to bumper. Modern cars act like snow ploughs with low plastic bumpers, not helping progress in snow deeper than 3". A snowy and cold winter was a lucrative time, pulling eejits out of ditches with the Landy.

You still often see kids help pushing cars up hills. Makes up for the ones throwing snowballs. Big bucket loaders are brilliant for dealing with drifts. We also have people with "real" 4x4s and even Unimogs rescuing people from drifts locally. It's nowhere near as bad as made out.
