Or just drive to the speed limit

I have a bunch of Refoss smart plugs that I bought for cheaps off Amazon 4 years ago. They work well, report on usage in real time and seem to be ok being a way from our router.

Tremendous Dan!

I saw 1.54 in Wymondham for Diesel this week. Still 1.37 in Woolpit tho, petrol in the 20s still.

They've made a U-turn

Jaguar XF S Portfolio 3.0D string-backed-driving-gloves edition

So 9,000 miles into XF ownership and I have the first real issue. Rear parking sensors/camera is now inop. You get the camera on ok, then after a few seconds the sensors emit a long beeep and the screen goes off with an error message ...

The LIDL ones are nice, and about sixpence and thereabouts.

Went to see this last night in Stowmarket, which seemed appropriate since it's a bit like a war zone. Anyway, superb film. Russell "Who Ate All The Pies" Crowe and Remi Malek were outstanding. The 5 mins of real footage of cleaning up one of the camps was stomach churning. I guess we've ...

Mine regularly says it has no connection. And one time (at band camp) it got water in it when I was washing it a bit too enthusiastically, and then dialled the BMW emergency people every time I turned the ignition on. That was fun.

Still nice to know it (might) work when needed.

The trick is I think not treating it like a search engine, and the more wordy you are with your prompts the more helpful it is.

I was at the Azure Dev Conference recently and Microsoft were jamming their agentic AI down our throats for 3 days solid. Feels like they've got all their eggs in this ...

Outstanding.

He's after an Aprilia RS125 GP Edition when he's 17 in a couple of months, and as much as I do like them the parts availability is a bit off-putting. Anyway it went back together easily enough and is tipping into corners like a loon on a nice new round tyre.

It's meant to be a T40 but because Italiano issa bit shit innit.

VPN is your friend surely for getting the images/deleting

Aprilia SXR 50 very slow edition

Will's scooter needed a new rear tyre, so as is usual I ring up the tyre place across the road, order a tyre and take the loose wheel over to be fitted. Simples.

Not simples.

Lets overlook the wheel bolts are "approximately" T40 for the moment. But in order to ...

That'd totally be me if I tried to enter a motorbike race :lol:

I thought Tim put a post here about a potential purchase of a Triumph Speed Triple, but I guess it didn't happen?


I binned it out of annoyance. The "family" (non bikers) decided it was worth a lot more than I was willing to pay ...

I went to the premiere of Luca - Seeing Red last night. Harris' film about Luca Montezemolo, with a live Q&A after with them both and the director. It was really good, deffo one to watch when it comes out.

He's an fascinating man, and answered every question after with a complete unrelated story. :D
