We also had a German air force Atlas A400 fly over us about 10.30 last night - noisy turboprop b***r

Another vote for Ohme Home Pro. There are some really useful groups on Facebook which can help with setting up and integrating with tariffs. We're on Intelligent Octopus Go which suits us as we only have a PHEV at the moment, but they have also just launched a £30pcm unlimited charging tariff...

Just like the Boro to plan the launch of the new kit from a dodgy backstreet shop somewhere in the western Med. Amateur Hour...

Pretty sure this has been covered on here before, but if you're just dipping your toe consider picking up something second hand from somewhere like MPB (https://www.mpb.com/en-uk)

+1 for Haarlem. I head out for a conference at the RAI most Septembers and would always stay in Haarlem now. Plenty of nice hotels centrally, but the Van Der Valk (mid market chain) is about 15 minutes walk or 5 minutes bus from the centre and is usually great value. There's also a direct bus...

Sonos has really gone to the dogs in the last year (a quick Google will tell you everything you need to know). I've switched to Apple HomePods recently and am really happy with the quality of audio I'm getting for the price point. If you're that way inclined you can spend a heck of a lot more...

Have you considered transporting it using a hovercraft? Or does that only apply to eels?

You should be able to give the ticket office a call to do the upgrade - we've done it before and there might even be a way to do it online.

They've updated the links to the charging apps (I've got an Ohme charger) so that you can only set a "ready by" time between 4.00-11.00 the next day. There was previously a bit more flexibility in this and people worked out you could get extra cheap daytime slots by setting an earlier target...

Not one I've used personally (we're an Adobe shop and I mainly work with Premiere Pro), but the designers I know who use Affinity do rate it as a viable alternative.

Affinity Photo is worth a look

Thought Giles looked a lot more comfortable against Derby with Borges inside of him - might have been something to do with Borges knowing the position and being able to move over to cover as well as being a natural left footer.

Biggest challenge was to stop shouting Alexa and start shouting Siri. All the smart home stuff with HomeKit works flawlessly too where the Alexa experience on Sonos always had a hand tied behind its back.

I gave up on my Sonos system just before Christmas and sold pretty much the lot other than the TV soundbars. Replaced with Apple HomePods which sound great and work much more reliably. The senior team who oversaw the new app debacle are all moving on - CEO went a month or two ago and the Chief...

I was talking more about the fact that it's been missed when the survey was first issued rather than anything else - it strikes me as cack handed (unless there is a specific requirement that there should be two separate surveys) that they've ended up having to carry out a two-step process using...
