United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

My grandfather was from the Staffordshire Moorlands so I know bits of the area well.
I can highly recommend a jaunt out to The Roaches - it's easy enough to scramble up and you have fine views from the top (including my ggg-grandparents' grave).
If you pop over Buxton way Mam Tor and the Blur John Cavern are worth a look.
Further afield, I'd recommend a wander around the northern parts of the Lake District - it feels a lot more remote and less touristy.
Or head NE to the Whitby, Staithes, Saltburn area - I've spent many a happy day pottering about on the beach looking for fossils or climbing Roseberry Topping.
I also had a driving holiday that went up the M6 along Hadrian's Wall (well parallel to it) and then pottering around places like Holy Island, Seahouses, Bamburgh and Berwick.
