Wifi Cameras?

With my fortnight-long European road trip coming up in August I'm tempted to replace my comparatively cumbersome Bridge SLR with a pocket-sized one with wifi connectivity - I like the idea of...

Mp3 Player (Not Ipod) With Usb

Can anyone recommend an MP3 player - but NOT iPod - which can be used while plugged into a USB port? Reason I ask is that I bought a 8Gb Sony USB 'stick' player for the car. It's great, except that...

The Deed Is Done!

So I spent a lot of time feeling 95% it would be a Ford Focus TDCi. And it isn't. On Saturday I'll be collecting a delightful 2010 Honda CR-Z hybrid sports coupe in white. 17k on the clock, 65mpg,...

It Makes Me Sick – Why?

You see it all the time. A film or TV programme where a detective discovers some gruesome remains and is physically sick. Or someone will say to you “The sight of it actually made me sick”. Why...

It’S Horrible When Someone You Know…

…turns out to be truly despicable. A guy connected (once) to my band used to regularly help us out at gig set-up and, as a whiz in electronics, often helped us with emergency repairs. We always...

All My Life (Our Cover)

Reason for posting this isn't really to plug the song as such (it's just that it turned out very nicely for a first rehearsal) - I actually want to ask a question of fellow musicians. I'll be honest....

American X-Small Size

My daughter wants a particular t-shirt from a US site, but it appears to be available only in X-Small. Anyone know what this would correspond to in UK sizes?...

A Big Gift To My Daughter

Hi folks, just wondering if any of you can either confirm or allay my concerns about something. Tiny bit of background first: My ex and I split up about 12 years ago and we have a daughter who I love...

Snooker Match Stats

Coverage of snooker matches on TV often includes match stats between frames, and there are two (presented as per centages) that always make me go "Hmmm"! LONG POT SUCCESS. At what point does a pot...

F T Crossword?

Is there an FT crossword today? With it being the holiday weekend I'm not sure if they've published - there's no online puzzle as yet anyway.

Reliable Car (Version 2!)

So I’m pretty much set on buying a Ford Focus TDCi (diesel) on a ’12 plate. It fits my budget of about £9k (for which I can get a car with about 40k on the clock), has road tax of £20, good MPG,...

2048 Again!

Yay, finally got the 2048. Eventually finished on 29772. That thing about keeping the bigger doubles in the bottom 2 rows was the key, although I was forced into using the UP arrow a couple of times...

Nightclub Between Bognor And Chichester

There doesn't seem to be an appropriate place to post this, so I'll take a punt here. In the 80s, maybe 90s as well, there used to be a nightclub just off the main road between Bognor Regis and...

Highs And Lows Of Insurance Quotes

It always seems to be the case that renewal premiums are very easy to beat if you look elsewhere. Car insurance renewal through my current provider was quoted today at £423, which seemed very high,...

Gta5 Update Problem

Saturday wasn't a great day for gaming! My daughter downloaded Monument Valley to her iPod and it won't launch. I treated myself to GTA5, which I'd been umming and ahing about since its launch. Xana...

Monument Valley On Ipod

Like 2048, Monument Valley is getting rave reviews. The idea seems to be to rotate/move parts of Escher-type landscapes; looks lovely as a puzzler. However we can't get it to work. My daughter has...

A Tsunami Makes Its Own Rules?
