r/sounding is disappointed in you. Embrace the feeling! :D

 

I would like to use part of my income to set up a regular monthly charitable donation. I have a couple of charities in mind but really I don't know where the money would be best spent to make a worthwhile difference.

My first thought was Cancer Research UK, but I don't really think my few quid a month will affect their £700m budget at all. Any smaller ones of good reputation?

I never really thought of being able to rent a piece of private land. If we can do that it sounds ideal.

This page mentions "Private camping pitches" where "you’re guaranteed to be the only ones there" - perfect! I'll look into that. Thanks for the suggestion.

 

I understand there's a right to camp in most places in the highlands, as long as you leave no trace and don't cause a disturbance. My partner and I want to go camping in the Highlands for a weekend, but we have an idea to go somewhere completely remote where there are no other people at all. So it will just be us and the hills and no disturbances. So obviously not campsites, but accessible areas where we could just set down and pitch a tent. We don't mind if we have to hike a little to find a good spot away from roads.

I understand there's a slight paradox that the most unpopulated place may attract more people to come there, making it not so quiet. But I'm looking for a spot with the lowest probability of being disturbed or seeing others. I've been browsing the map and have some ideas, but just wondering if anyone else has done something similar.

When I "delete" a comment, all it does is replace the text with "deleted by creator". It doesn't even hide my username. This is different from previous behaviour where the comment was entirely removed from the public view.

I should be in control of my comment. If I want to delete it then it should be entirely removed - at least from the public view. I don't want to make comments knowing that I'm permenantly etching my username into the stone of the thread forever with no ability to delete it. I'm highly put off from engaging now that I can't reliably delete what I write.

Being able to undo the deletion is fine but the undo really should only last 1h or maybe 24h before the comment is properly deleted.
