OV9

We have one that gets used for temporary site connections and when I go to Spain.
Works well for downloads and streaming, but if it deosn't have a clear view the latency can cause issues with video calls, despite a speed test showing over 80MB.

A sad end to the 125i. The convertible 1-series is a good looking thing.

I don't remember reading your original damage report - what caused it? Odd the way the metal is barely bent but the wheel is at that angle.


Hit while parked at the side of the road. The van driver didn't leave a note but ...

Finally agreed a figure with the insurance company, so end of term for the 125i -

Initial offer, after four weeks of a hire car Audi A3, including two weeks of failing to collect it, was £1753, made up of Copart valuing the vehicle in the current state at £225 and the third party insurer giving me ...

Chose a 'mystery car' for a work trip to Barcelona this week.

Got a white Seat Ibiza FR.

Drove well enough, engine fairly punchy (didn't check what it was), but a really odd spec -

Traditional flick key, but it was keyless start!
Semi-autonomous driving - steering as long as it detected hands ...

One of the parents at school has just got a job using Claude to find it for him.

He set up a process for Claude to interview him for an hour, give it a copy of his CV, search once a day on linkedin and the top 20 companies that he wanted to work for, work out if he was a decent fit for the job ...

£1200, think Amazon matched it during Prime thingy, but Costco gives 5 year warranty included. Also, never had any questions with returns etc.

Also, 4th one I’ve bought; they’re very good tvs! 😳🤣


Just setup the C5 for my folks - only the 48" one but I'm incredibly impressed with it for the ...

I see this kind of driving almost every other time I drive between London Bridge and Leicester, either on the A406, M25 or M1, and it's depressing how little understanding they clearly have of how quickly it could go wrong for them and innocent bystanders.

Beany mentioned it, but this type of ...

Mrs mik’s ETron is with Audi getting suspension arms replaced under the extended warranty.

Courtesy Q3 35 S-line (new).

After 30seconds of looking I was thinking that Audi have done an amazing job of hiding the start button. But then I realised it has a flick-key. Which goes into an ignition ...

Spotted on webcam yesterday morning

Not my fleet, but two of my staff left on part of a client's fleet yesterday!

Before wi-fi calling was a thing we used to frequently get asked to supply and install mobile phone boosters in London basement digs. I was a minor shareholder in that business, but we would pre-wire for them and install a suitable aerial cable, but the client had to personally buy it and plug it in ...

I'm envisaging your client as a bond villain


It's probably public knowledge if you do a bit of digging, but I can't say who is the owner Nausicaa or the one that we're on. When I was over a few weeks ago Nausicaa was about to be handed over. One of the ...

I understand that the person who comissioned the boat build that we're on is now in a prison in South America and our client got a deal on in at it was 80% complete to the original specifications.
I wonder ...

The two cheapest to me within 6 miles (SE1 4QA) are definitely not petrol stations - how does it end up with that data.

We’ve got an LGUS70TR soundbar/sub brand new in the box that can go for £200 delivered in the UK if anyone’s interested.

Back to stereos, we're having a bit of a clear out in the stores if anyone would like to make an offer -

Jesus, what’s doing their hot water????!!! Average invented cylinder is usually 120-150l in an ordinary house, maybe up to 250 or so in bigger places. At 1100 litres it’ll need a huge amount of hot water input and probably need a circulating heater like a hot tub just to maintain temperature ...
