  1. Sky Stream

    Just wondering if anyone uses this? On paper sounds like a great way of getting live tv over wifi but I'd like to get honest reviews from people who use it. In particular how you get on without the option to record or not having any +1 channels? I get that most things are On Demand now but how...

  2. Photography and Cameras

    Any budding amateur photographers on here? Or professional. I have started travelling a fair bit and am considering a book project. I'm pretty good at the creative side of taking photos but never had any proper training on the technical side (aperture, shutter speed, iso, lighting etc.) Any...

  3. Pubs with no TVs

    Any recommendations? Meeting a few people post match next Saturday and ideally wanting to avoid the rugby crowds watching the Scotland game as we are just wanting a seat and a catch up. So far we have the Guildford and Barony on the list but any other recommendations appreciated.

  4. Electric Vehicles - A rant.

    Forgive me folks but I’m having a bad day with this electric car and needed to vent. Also want to know if anyone else feels the same or if I’m just being miserable. I first bought an electric car 3 years ago through my work. It was a good deal and I liked the idea of no longer having to fill up...

  5. Good pals

    I’ve had the same pals for many many years. We don’t see each other as much these days which is fine and to be expected but we’ll all get together for a beer and a catch up every now and then…….However not all of them turn up or want to meet up anymore. I find it really strange that as soon as...

  6. Hibs-supporting tradesmen/women

    Spotted a couple of Moncrieff Builders & Roofing vans out and about the other day (no surprise given the damage caused by the storms). Green and white branding and a Hibs badge on the back doors. Interesting that they're so open about their allegiance as you'd imagine it might put some yams off...

    I own an EcoSport less than five years old whose broken timing belt caused such damage that I need a brand new engine for the car. Does this seem normal ? The Ford dealer wants £7000 plus for the new one. I'm shocked that a car with 49000 miles needs it. Any views on this would be very...
