I have been allocated Hatfield College. What is it like?

I know Hatfield has a reputation for being snobby and I just wanted to know if that is true? People who go there seem to really like it but I just wanted to know your opinions. I go to a state school so donโ€™t know if it will be a bit weird going somewhere known for being posh. Is it a nice atmosphere and are the socials and events fun?

Hatfield College

Hi there,

So I'm asking for someone else whose heading to Durham this year. They have put Hatfield as their first choice but are starting to have some doubts about the vibe and feel of the place. She's heard that 60% of people have to share rooms for the first year. Do most that don't want to share get their preference? Also she gets the feeling that life there might be very different to first year Uni life at non-collegiate unis and that it feels slightly like going to boarding school. If she does have to share how do people do standard normal first year stuff like have relationships and that.

Also there is apparently a bit of distaste towards Hatfield as its seen as the "Posh" college. Does that ring true in your experience?

Thanks for any advice or insight.

Privatization of British Rail: Success or Failure?

#An unpopular system

According to a June 2018 survey of 1,490 British adults 56% thought the privatization of British Rail (BR) was a failure, while only 16% believed it to be a success, people who actually used British Rail (BR) were much more likely to believe the latter. Does the commonly held belief that the privatization of British Rail (BR) was a failure hold up to the evidence?

#The fares

One common criticism of the privatization of British Rail (BR) is that fare prices increased considerably after privatization, according to the Global Railway Review average real fares increased by an average of 2.2% in the last 15 years before privatization, compared to only 1.3% in 1996 to 2011.

#Safety

Another common criticism of the privatization of British Rail (BR) is that it lowered rail transport safety, with critics pointing out accidents such as the Southall of 1997, Ladbroke Grove rail crash of 1999, Hatfield rail crash of 2000 and the Potters bay rail crash of 2002, ignoring accidents which occurred under nationalization, such as the River Towy rail crash of 1987, the Clapham Junction rail crash of 1988, the Purley Station rail crash of 1989 or the Newton (South Lanarkshire) rail accident of 1991.

As most of the public already opposed the privatization of British Rail (BR), the British rail system's safety was much more heavily scrutinized, paving the way for the creation of numerous new safety regulations, which undoubtedly helped save many lives. According to Andrew Evans, professor of risk management at the Imperial College of London, about 150 people had probably lived who might have been expected to die had pre-privatization trends continued. According to 2013 European Railway Agency data, the United Kingdom has one of the safest railway systems in Europe, based on the railway-related fatality rate per billion passenger-kilometers.

#Traffic volume

According to figures from the Office of Rail and Road, [the number of rail passenger journeys increased by 128.4% - or from 761.2 million to 1,738.8 million - between 1995-1996 and 2019-2020](https://dataportal.orr.gov.uk/statistics/usage/passenger-rail-usage/table-1

[Sneaker Collecting] Nike Air MAGs: The Power of Nostalgia is a Curious Thing

don't mind me, I'm just setting up the teaser image

(EDIT: fixed some factual errors but don't wanna pretend I was correct the whole time. Tinker Hatfield did not work on the Air Jordan line until the 3s, and the prop in the 1989 film was achieved through movie magic and did not have internal mechanics of their own. Thank you to the comments who corrected me).

Why canโ€™t we all look like the people in the movies? Better question may be why canโ€™t Hollywood acquiesce to normal expectations for beauty and style, but the first one is more fun. Thereโ€™s some very classic getups across the history of film. Audrey Hepburnโ€™s Givenchy dress from Breakfast at Tiffanyโ€™s. The Devil works hard but Tom Ford works harder designing suits for recent James Bondses. Matter of fact, Jamesโ€™ wristwatch model in No Time To Die, an Omega Seamaster Diver 300M, has done quite well since the release of the film. I remember when green Adidas Superstars were suddenly very in because Michael Cera wore them in a movie. Certain folks who had zero interest in Air Jordans until Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse found their interest piqued with Milesโ€™ clean Chicago 1s (and then tried to buy a pair until the raffle was botted and the lowest you could get the rerelease was like eight-hundred bucks. Isn't this hobby just so fulfilling).

We truly arenโ€™t immune to propaganda. But this is all clothing and accessories that one can feasibly own in the real world. What about the shit that doesnโ€™t exist? My mind jumps to that kinda-weird kinda-cool cutoff half-sweater thing Katniss Everdeen sported. Harley Quinn wore that cool bomber jacket in that one movie. Yellow Leather was among the most derided colors for the material in the fashion sphere until Uma Thurman wore the best costume in any movie ever. Tune Squad jersey, hmm. Powerline world tour shirt, thatโ€™s cute. But weโ€™re beating around the bush. Thereโ€™s a pair of shoes that stands above all else in the โ€œdude I want thoseโ€ school of filmmaking.

โ€œโ€ฆ Youโ€™re gonna see some serious shit.โ€

We take for granted the cultural impact of 1985โ€™s *Back to the Futur

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
