Re: Hairy Bikers Guy - Dave Myers

RIP

I take it he hadn't recovered from the cancer then? I must admit I thought he'd had the all clear.

That's a concept in the attached article.

Reminds me - had a R4 behind us the other day and he was thraping it - comical lean angles as he came around a bend 8-)

Re: VOIP Phones

I shouldn't really say it as I provide them, but what's the point in a landline in a house these days? I get the point that it often works even in a power cut, but that normally relies on you having a hard-wired phone, which few people do these days (and a VOIP phone won't do this), but otherwise w...

Re: VOIP Phones

If it's any consolation I just had my full fibre connected and my phone has been OOS since. I've been advised to turn the router and grey box off for ten minutes, as a reset. Quite enjoying not getting spam calls though.. It's going to be great fun next year when they start stripping out the old li...

Re: VOIP Phones

Well, this is going swimmingly well so far... :( 1 week since our number ported and still haven't got our setup working. And because we've picked a device that's not supported by IDNet (because I didn't want a shitty Yealink) we're having trouble getting any assistance from them The issue seems to b...

Re: EV Thread

I like it, but it’s still big and heavy for a small car with not much space. A sliding rear seat so you can occasionally take rear passengers with actual legs would have been handy. Yeah - I guess they're gambling that for 99% of use cases the rear seat space will be less important than boot space....

Re: EV Thread

I would still really like a Honda E - for driving into town, parking at the station or whatever. Keep it plugged in when at home so it's always ready to go. Same. And an i3. And probably one of these or A210 when they come along :lol: Simultaneously?! That would perhaps be a bit silly :lol: I've ju...

Even more bizarre is if a kicked ball hits a the corner flag and bounces into play the ball is still live!
Ah right. So that was a 10yo rule change. I wonder what they were on about then?

Re: 6 Nations

I didn't catch that in commentary, but you've been able be in the air over the line for as long as I can remember. Usually hitting the flag means you're in touch, did he hit the flag first before grounding or something? Either way, sounds like they cheated... I demand an immediate rematch. Just wat...

Re: 6 Nations

Question for those that follow the game more closely than I - the commentators said something in passing regarding De Merwe's second try that of course it wouldn't have been allowed 4 years ago. What was that in relation to? Only thing I could think is was it because his foot was over the line but i...

DeskJockey wrote: Fri Feb 23, 2024 11:10 am I guess it boils down to the definition of disability. I'm probably leaning towards option two, but as I'm not the one impacted, I'd rather the distinction was made by a woman who is/would be.
So very much this.
