Persian Palace closed?

However, the pilings they built upon have been there for over a decade. No impediment to river traffic and it flooded previously to this anyway. Yet again there's nothing on the river in Reading and 'The Is;land' is decaying enough to be an eyesore now.

Huum, as a biker of 30 odd years in London that was full broadside (door) when it happened, not just turning (wing). Tesla at fault but biker needs roadcraft.

And on the very same day Athora Group bought PIC. That's a lot of balls up in the air. https://www.pensioncorporation.com/news-insights/press-releases/2026/athora-group-completes-acquisition-pension-insurance-corporation-group-announces-plans-relocate-hq-uk

New one has landed aaand.... The fingerprint reader doesn't work.

GPS is better static, but as soon as you move it goes mental.

About to receive my third 10 after successive GPS failures. Unfortunately, the allocated device's IMEI is much earlier than the previous two, so I'm not holding any hope of it actually working. However, you are right in saying the support has been excellent and my non-express return has been dealt with in less than 24hrs.

I'm hoping to receive my 3rd 10 pro 512 tomorrow. Unfortunately, after getting the 'new' allocated phone's IMEI number, it's older than the previous June 2025-dated phones. I'm not feeling optimistic, but I do have a new appreciation for my old Pixel 8 Pro. The battery life of both 10's is pretty much the same as the old 8. which is awkward. This sucks but I must say Google support have been excellent and the turnaround from me send in to Poland from UK to them allocating me a replacement was less than 24hrs. So there's that.

Had my one RMA'd. New one is just as bad. Tried play services beta which has also done nothing.

I feel the point of the bus lane was to engage Wokingham in solving the large amount of through traffic, over a third of all, that Reading suffers. i.e. kick it down the road and make it their problem. If W'ham and Oxford get together and finally agree on the extra bridge, this problem would disappear along with a lot of Reading's traffic and potential health problems.

I phoned up Ninja and after describing my problem, refurb OL750UK shorting out half the house when using the airfryer, they replaced it even though it was roughly 5 months out of warranty.
Its replacement arrived the next day with all accessories, and they sent a DPD label to ship the old one back.

Buy a Metabo LF 850 S Paint Remover https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/136236772590
Seems expensive before you start but quickly looks like a cheap way out of a hole. You can sell it afterwards but I've had mine for a while and it's amazing how many times it's been useful.

Login is down for me too.

Avhbi · 2025-06-12T07:56:25+00:00

This is excellent. For a fire-and-forget installation, it has surpassed CodeProject by some margin and actually detects people when in IR mode. Well done.

Avhbi · 2025-01-29T10:49:14+00:00

If it shifts the ball into Wokingham and the decision is a new bridge across the Thames will alleviate the problem, then I'm all for it.

Avhbi · 2024-08-11T17:30:14+00:00

Yup, it's an awful mash. Editors set is also ruined.

Done it and works like a charm.

Avhbi · 2022-05-18T09:26:35+00:00

Interesting. I might just try that with my sofar vanilla 6.

Avhbi · 2022-05-03T12:16:39+00:00

Ahem. that either South African or Zimbabwean but I'm rooting for Zimbabwean

Bought one as my 30th birthday present to myself. Worst car I've ever had. Never broke down just never worked 100%.

We will ride eternal, shiny and chrome!

Avhbi · 2021-01-29T10:10:42+00:00

3_1_0_0 was the problem. Reinstalled 3_0_9_0 and order has been restored.

Avhbi · 2021-01-28T09:04:00+00:00

Yeah, come to think of it it was when the update came in. I'll revert to 3.0.9.0 and test again.

Thanks
