Re: Why are road trips so alluring?
We were somewhat constrained by the nipper in that we couldn't do any stint of more than 2 or 3 hours without a break as it's not good for small children to be in a car seat for that long. But we settled into a rhythm with it. Leave after breakfast - Drive for 3 hours. Stop for lunch for a few hours...

Re: Why are road trips so alluring?
I drove 2500 miles through France and Northern Italy over 3 week with a 9 month old in the back in a Vauxhall Zafira.

Re: Motorway Mile Munchers
A big Citroen is always my first thought when someone wants a mile muncher..
But I can see his point I drove a Passat Estate in black for a year and that was a Hearse
A large Volvo would therefore be my second choice in terms of comfort - S80 maybe or even an S90 if his budget stretches ??

Re: Which hoover?
I was on a teams call a while back and one of the participants went "Sorry, my hoover's texting me - the dining room door's closed and it can't get to the kitchen".

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.
I've just submitted another round of BP numbers as part of my ongoing treatment. While not the perfect (High reading 128/89, Low 120/80, average 124/83), I'm not going to change dosage of Ramapril for now and just keep loosing weight, cutting way back on the beers and the processes meat (I do love a...

Re: Decent Recent TV
Just binged The Last of Us Really enjoyed it. I never played the game or watched the likes of The Walking Dead so I had no baggage while watching it. The performances were great, particularly Bella Ramsey and as mentioned, the episode with Bill and Frank was excellent Looking forward to the second s...

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.
Mine was about 7.5 but with statins - and to be fair, a lot of diet changes, it’s down to 3.3 with both readings well in the good range.
I’m also on Ramapril for Blood Pressure (which is also working - 115 to 120 over 82 to 84 which isn’t the worst for a 50 year old who needs to lose a stone or two.

Re: Hive mind: opinion on this polo
My sister had a 1.2 for a good while - bought it with 40k km’s and it never put a foot wrong.
Mum now has one - again, bought with about 40k km’s and it’s going well so far.
Non technical feedback but they do seem a decent car. Mini Dinny will be getting one for his first.

It’s a really good way to frame a talk about the person. First one was Carrie Fischer, the second, Bruce Lee. Next week is Ro...
