Re: Randomness

This isn't the first time is it? I remember a similar story before that turned out to be BS when the driver claimed the accelerator was stuck down when it really wasn't.

Re: Mesh wifi

Matty is right - Wifi 5 is plenty fast enough for the end devices but I'm interested in whether these meshes use 6/6E/7 etc as the 'backhaul' between nodes - it would make sense if they separated radio duties like that (assuming that you don't have a hard-wired backhaul).

Re: Euromillions immediate purchase

This is what we need to do for my mother-in-law. We want to make sure she's well housed without actually giving her a house (less sh...

Re: Euromillions immediate purchase

I think what money really 'buys' you is more free time and the removal of stresses. Like others with kids, we couldn't just move anywhere, but we'd immediately go and get my wife and I new cars, throw in the job, then start to hire people to free up our time. So a chef, a gardener, a housekeeper, e...

Re: Car insurance

My wife's renewal is up and she's gone from @550 to @950, again another year of no-claims etc etc. Two things pushing hers up, (apart from the norm of accident repair garages and credit hire companies both ripping off insurance companies, thus increasing their costs generally) - she has more years ...

Re: Is car insurance racist?

I said it before - my wife's insurance is more just because she's an immigrant. Change her to 'British' and the premiums drop. There's even a specialist insurer for immigrants (Marshmellow?) who claim to offer better rates for them. It's a con.
