A drawer knob fell off in a giants kitchen, those magic beans have a lot to answer for.

As retarded as the majority of the population who repeatedly vote for their team regardless of what they've done rather than hold whichever sleaze bags are in office to account. Although you do have to have hold right wing voting West Country people in the poorest rural areas of the country with a special regard, they'd vote for a cat's anus if it had a blue ribbon on it

Ah the appearance of incompetence whilst stuffing your pockets from the taxpayers pocket. They're good at that. John Penrose (oily milksop) is married to Dido Harding who in-spite of overseeing corperate disasters in multiple companies can only fail up. Johnson and his cronies handed her for 37 billion for the track n trace shambles after which she was rewarded by being unlawfully put in charge of the NHS. I've met them a couple of times, they are not thick, just foul contemptuous pieces of shite, eye's darting around like heroin addicts looking for their next score, except it's not drugs, it's who's got money. So repellent I don't have adequate vocabulary to describe them.

Garmin take forever to update (like hours) so best done overnight. iPhone's usually reasonably fast but depends how many updates are outstanding. I also have an iPhone 7, next time I'm in Blighty I'll see if it works with Garmin Drive. Don't see why it wouldn't. I once left updating my MacBook so long it had moved so far on the first update was no longer able to install. The guy in the apple store had to take away and give it to the tech team I also used to get it in the neck from Mr Slowly because I'd whine n moan my tech doesn't work and when he takes over all that's needed was an update with the bug fixes included. For techy people it's a proper eye roll thing

To add to Weston's supreme status the beach water quality does not reach the minimum standard for health (too much sewage dumped in the waterways) and is in the bottom 3% of the country. Weston's response.. there's no pass or fail standards for individual water samples and we've introduced signs Come on in the water's fine. Thanks Larry Vaughn

I didn't stick around long enough to look

No software updates available for them?

Weston-Super-Mare has some of the most deprived area's in the country. The Bournville is in the top 1% of deprived places and parts of Weston centre in the the top 2% Delightfully North Somerset also ranks third in the country for the greatest disparity between rich and poor. As a county has above average wealth.

@XTreme guess who chips in on the Garmin Zumo forum as admin? Stu from Hull. https://www.zumouserforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1669

Iphone 13 I also have the Garmin Connect app because thats what was recommended. I found it rubbish. Garmin drive on the other had seems to be doing a cracking job. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/garmin-drive/id1276198893

A small triumph that feels like major one with the Garmin Zumo XT today. The difficulties entering the destination if the address doesn't exist or is not recognised and the sluggish map response while you find where you want to go by trying to marry up what you're looking at on google maps on the Garmin has been frustrating. Enter the Garmin Drive app. Simply copy n paste the coordinates or the address from google into Garmin Drive and it sends it straight to the Garmin. I don't understand why this app isn't mentioned, even the folk at the Garmin stand when I said I was having trouble entering destinations didn't mention it. Have tried it out with addresses, dropped pins and coordinates for the UK and Spain and it's worked seamlessly. Apparently 'what 3 words' works well with Garmin Drive too. Very happy. Only a minor thing but if you copy coordinates remember to remove the brackets that google uses before sending.

Don’t forget to open your advent calendar this morning

Similar thing happened to my Pa. He went up the road one way so knew it was ok but before he came back down a load of loose mud had been spread all over the road from a building site entrance on a corner. Broke his ribs.

You can keep your hell, mine sounds a lot more fun.

Awake til 2am and woke multiple times after that, reckon Mr Slowly has had a bad nights sleep and that’s what was waking me cos he was awake whenever I woke up! I want to speak to the complaints department, slow day ahead Going downstairs for tea and toast it’s the only thing that could possibly fix this bleary eyes grump!

Got sent this via WhatsApp so dunno if the link will work but it’s too cute not to try and share it. https://www.facebook.com/reel/3203672106560821?fs=e&s=7MtrtK

Ground Bambi bones.

Definitely something like that. I'm guessing it's to make the road surface more resistant to the blistering heat in July and August?

@yen_powell What is the white glittery stuff in tarmac that makes some roads sparkle in the sunshine?

What's that you say? More of the same weather tomorrow? Why thankyou

Me too. A real monkey bike.

Just got an email saying on this occasion they will let me off the parking fine (for parking in the middle of nowhere outside Starbucks) but next time they won’t. Can’t be good for business because I won’t be going back there.

Another day in paradise

Gonna drop to 11 degrees overnight here. Nevermind tomoz is 7.6 hours of sunshine reaching 20 degree’s. Life’s rough
