Why aren’t more foreign visitors hiring cars when they visit the UK?

I often see quite elaborate itineraries posted here, crossing the country and then then phrase “we aren’t hiring a car”

Why not?

Is it the cost or are people put off driving in the “wrong” side of the road?

Whenever I go on holiday I hire a car, it’s brilliant. Total freedom.

Found Out My Grandad was Born in WV In 1905 - What Is The Area Like Now?

Specifically in the Beckley - Oak Hill area

His father was a coal miner and English immigrant.

My family left WV shortly after my grandfather was born and travelled back to England

I understand the coal industry in WV is gone now and there’s not much left but would be interested to hear from folks who live there to see what the place is like today on that specific area

Seb Adeniran-Olule

I have been aware about the tragic passing of Harlequins prop Seb at age 20 for many years. I had read multiple times that he passed away in a car accident.

I was therefore extremely shocked to read a few days ago about his death now being referred to as suicide.

Im struggling to come to terms with that and I’ve been trying to find out additional information but could not.

Is the inference that he purposefully crashed his car?

I’m sad and confused about this. Is anyone able to shed any light on it?

Hello

I’m doing some family research and found out a few ancestors were born and living in Ryhope in 1900. The father of the house was a miner at Ryhope Colliery

What is Ryhope like today?
