  1. Talking of odious toads, quite amusing that Prince Hazbeen was awarded £146k as only a 10 or so of his 33 story references were upheld. He was offered £400k to settle before the trial. Presumably because Prince William received £1m he thought he'd get the same. Or Smegs did. Shame 😂
  2. Completely agree with the touch screen comments. This was another issue during our brief and ill fated few months with a Mercedes. Long list of functions but only one displayed at a time on the dash. And the speed limit display was only on screen if you had the sat nav on. Loads of stuff could only be controlled via the information system. Thankfully the new car has proper knobs for the climate control, heated seats etc. Although you can control with your voice, I always forget to do that though. And it's bloody lovely to drive and it's not always broken!
  3. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/utilities/-are-there-any-cheap--fixed-energy-deals-currently-worth-it--/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=bills&source=TWORG-BILLS#deals MSE have some recommendations and other good options. The Octopus tracker is existing customers only. I'm not sure about the Intelligent one. That's .24p/kwh and 0.7p/kwh for 6 hours.
  4. Normally, I'm very happy about that. Just not today.
  5. That did include wine... I know nothing is cheap in Copenhagen but!
  6. Congratulations. Not wishing to be overly pedantic at this happy time, but you've proposed, and she's said yes, then you're not getting engaged next week, you already are.
  7. Geoff is Shepshed, so ideal for Loughborough. https://www.toppstiles.co.uk/tiler-hub/geoffwigstead-267
  8. Yes. We went a few months ago, thought it was excellent. Mates have booked us into Tamantanga on Friday, anyone been? Thoughts?
  9. No, our Intelligent Octopus has better rates than any of the fixes I've seen. You've got an EV, have you looked at the Octopus EV options? If you do want to switch let me know and I can send you a referral code for a £50 bonus.
  10. Disappointing to concede 2 to them but the 3 points is the most important factor, at the end of the day. Did anyone have any issues with the Millwall lot? We were sitting outside Nine Bar when a group of them ran over and started punching and attacking people. Fortunately, I was sat directly in front of one of the pillars but the two blokes either side of me got a right wack. It was odd because Nine bar is well away from town and 90% of the people in there were middle aged folks (like me). Definitely no one looking for a fight.
  11. Have you been in the pub a while
  12. Yes, just binged watched the whole series in the last two weeks. An indescribable experience, some very challenging dishes too, mind you at nearly £1k per person you'd want something extraordinary! I can't comprehend paying that for a meal.
  13. No leaving early to beat the traffic for you In all of the ticket sales emails I've received in recent times, it's had that sentence included regarding the car parking. So, it's not new.
  14. Disappointingly, our recent cruise did not stop as scheduled in Egypt or Jordan for security reasons. Not unexpected given the Middle East issues but still disappointing. We did receive a future cruise credit for 25% of the cost, so are looking to rebook for April '25 and include those ports. Surely they'll have sorted it out by then? But we've now booked one for next year, San Francisco, LA, Hawaii, some other Pacific Islands on to New Zealand and 3 days in Sydney.
  15. Oh dear.... Oh dear....
  16. Is Cafe Bruxelles still going? That was the only place I could think of nearby that might work.
  17. Looking for somewhere to have a few drinks in town, after a meal on Friday night. Going to Tamantanga to eat with friends (we're all quite old) and looking for suggestions for a couple of hours post meal - 9 to 11pm. Not necessarily a pub, nice bar type place would be fine. Any suggestions?
  18. Sadly, I do as my social media is full of annoying elf pictures. So I agree with @Sly on wishing it had never been started.
  19. Seafood chowder.
  20. You're doing really well and it's nice that it's you and not Leeds. Likewise 😄
