OV9

My average MPG continues to creep up, currently at 51mpg since I bought it 2500 miles ago. I think my motoring is quite well suited to hybrid life and I’ll definitely have another and will go full EV when they can charge quickly everywhere!

Also same thing with the Apple Watch, it seems to randomly call 999 a few times per year…

Yeah my Galaxy watch detected a hard fall when I was doing something mildly strenuous and started calling for help.

Ah, I thought they might be capable of sending out gps coordinates if you were too banged up to know where you are.

Like airbags they’re one of those things we like to have but hope to never need. Was just wondering, has anyone ever used one, what happens?

He could be jailed and still be President, the US is that weird.

Wonder how he'll twist this!

The Indy 500 is due to start soon but has been delayed due to rain, might be worth a watch.

We've just been there (and Herculaneum)

It was a bucket list item for us too

Hope you have a great time there

Ooh, any tips?

Anyone interested before it goes on the usual places? It was my Dad’s and barely used. It’s the 15 inch one. 2.2 GHz quad core Intel core i7 16GB

Looking for £250 as replacement is on the way!

I share an office space with 4 women aged from 24 to 60. Some of the conversations are eye opening…

Yes! Go Lando!

Yes. It came in a pack with the optional rattle can overspray

Why would you not clean that off?!

They are a menace in certain areas around here but can you imagine the uproar if out police did that? Don't get me wrong, I think they should but the officers would be the ones on trial.

Surely they'll have to get rid of Horner now he's cost them the best designer on the grid.

Can't do that with a cost cap. Unless he suddenly has a desire to start a catering company of course

I’m quite certain they’ll have ways round it.

In my experience you're better off buying one of those transforming ladders with platforms. I tried doing out hedge with and extending trimmer and they are too unwieldy at height. I know use a platform and feel far safer and it's easier to get a decent cut

I had a sore port once but some cream sorted it right out!
