I've seen them advertise deals with refurbished kit, so keep your eye out.  :y


It looks like the cost is currently £225 ( £450 before) for the dish, and then £85 a month. Not cheap.

Elon is worth £280 billion so he could afford to make it less expensive.

What sort of speeds do you get for that?  ???

That's a similar price to high speed fibre I think?  If you have fibre that is...  ::)
High speed fibre is well cheaper than £85. But, if you live on a rambling country estate, Openreach aren't about to use a whole drum of cable to get to you.

Elon Musk could do with a couple of bob, so you will be keeping him from the food bank.

:o You can just imagine the sense of panic on the bridge of the ship  :o
Even worse on the actual bridge.

Big difference between weathered and green slime. Out patios are York stone and now look like the year they were laid.
Bloody southerners, coming up here, pinching our stone.
Bloody Northerners coming down here and nicking our women... :P
Of course, how could they resist?  ;D

I read earlier that there were two pilots on board. Seems to have been some kind of equipment failure, it will all come out in the wash.

There are certain insurance companies that are refusing to insure anyone over 70 now. Or quoting such a ridiculously high price that they know won't be accepted.

Seeing Mick's post prompted me to ring LV. I managed to get £60 off my renewal and £50 off the wife's. £110 for a ten minute call is ok, but both policies together still come in at around £1000  :(

Pressure washing the paths and patio is a quite satisfying job.  :y

But then you get the water bill!  :o  Which is why I only do it every other year.  ::)  ;D
Makes no difference if you don't have a water meter  :y

Yep, nice looking car.

It will be interesting to see how you get on with it over time.

What headlights do you have? I am unimpressed withmy bi xenons. I guess LEDs are the go to now.


 It's got Bi-xenons that go round corners for some reason, How I've managed all these years going round corners I don't know..

The DS had them in the 70s  ;)


 The French connection,, Being as Vauxhall is now part of PSA,,
Stellantis, actually  :y

Coming home from our Carribbean cruise 😁
Hope you enjoyed it, Mick.

Put the spare doors inside the car and there's £500 worth of scrap there. They'll be gone as soon as the scrap man can fit you in.
