Got to look at the fees for each scheme - it was definitely better for me to consolidate.

Do Pensionbee charge a fee? I imagine HMRC do not.

Audi updates after just over 2000 miles: - It's much more fun to drive than my previous Allroad. - It's more economical than anything I've owned previously (53.3mpg yesterday over ~140 miles) - The self-driving stuff makes it ridiculously more relaxing to drive up and down the motorway, and I think ...

That's it - I'll be there tomorrow. Are you working at the hairdressers? :lol: Quite a Stourbridge mafia going on! TBH the hairdressers might be easier....I work at an IT place just around the corner. Can't fix hair, can fix IT stuff if you need it. This isn't you is it Matty ? https://www.illdoit....

Quite a Stourbridge mafia going on!

If you do so on a weekday, give me a shout - I'm usually there and will take you for lunch.

Oh FFS - I love that. How bloody annoying; I didn't want to keep buying stuff

I remember that Barry; must have talked about Stourbridge on the forum years ago.

Only lived in Stourbridge itself for the first year of my life, and nearby until I was 10, but I opened a second office there last year. It's felt like a homecoming.

Stourbridge band, and I was born in Stourbridge so it wasn’t a genre thing for me but a local thing. Loved Can U Dig It and Def Con One and Beaver Patrol back in the 80s. Always more a fan of The Wonder Stuff though…

Is that show on an obscure channel? I’ve genuinely never seen it advertised.

I don’t watch it but I do know Fuzz from PWEI at least.

Go on, Tim? I vaguely recognise him I think. At least it’s not Tim Shmee

Bean, you’re aware that coupe/cab E46/ have quite different mirrors to the saloon/Touring I’m sure, but just mentioning it. Yup, as cynically expected, the 'guaranteed to fit' part is for a saloon, not a couple/convertible - it folds horizontally, not, er, rotationally? If the fittings are the same...

Bordeaux and Garnet aren’t the same, and you would not easily confuse them; Garnet is brighter. I like the one in your photo, though not as much as the Smurf G.

Spotted at J10 of the M5 this morning, crashed into the barrier where the sliproad comes off the A-road: an M-reg BMW 8-series. Sadly I was driving so couldn't get a photo - if it's still there this evening I'll do so. Evening update: BMW gone but the cones are still there: https://i.imgur.com/n60f...

It's a ridiculous idea; you don't get anything for nothing and you'd be better off sticking a powerbank in your pocket. See comment above. There is no intent to power a 50w device from a dynamo - this is intended to extend the use time of / reduce the size of the battery that will be needed. 50w es...

Spotted at my Stafford office on Tuesday: a Lambo Hurracan which I only saw from behind, but based on the registration (which was something like ST23ATO - not that though, according to a reg check) it must have been a Sterrato. I shall probably see it again so I'll take a photo. Spotted yesterday on...

Bear in mind that there are losses in the generation of power; 50W of your energy does not produce 50W of electricity (is that what Mito is trying to say above?) It's a ridiculous idea; you don't get anything for nothing and you'd be better off sticking a powerbank in your pocket.

The National Conservatism thing is a separate organisation to the Tory party, not a splinter group from it or anything like that. These are the people behind it: https://burke.foundation/people/ Seems only a short time since the Shrewsbury MP was reprimanded for talking at a previous Natcon conferen...

Oh no I was just thinking how much I like my Izy over the weekend. I think I might splash out on one of those hydrostatic drive mowers now, since it’s the last opportunity. Will probably see me out.

Not sure if this will need a tonne of work more than it says in the ad or if it's good value https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/622310296443060/ I think "Will need mot" means "basket case" unfortunately. I like the last picture which is of a different car with a cat.
