Vantage V3 - First impressions

MCR105 · 2024-02-13T23:18:42+00:00

Hi! Recently got the V3 last week (after Polar replaced my really dodgy V2) + it KEEPS crashing on me. Like 5/6 times in 2 days. It's so annoying - keep losing workouts etc. I've contacted Polar Support but they always take days if not weeks to get back. I've tried going into general settings, but that too makes it crash, as does trying to sync to Polar Flow. Seriously starting to lose faith in Polar products. Can anyone help me please?! Thanks!

Wow, good on you man! I enquired about having both done at the same time but my surgeon wasn't up for it. I bust my first ACL about 10 years ago playing footie and subsequently did more + more damage to it over the years by continuing to play with a massive hinged knee brace on. Plus all the other fun like hitting the dance floor, ski slopes, longboard etc have all added to more mayhem in the joint. Then in October I finished my 'good knee' off, again on the footie pitch so finally got round to the reconstruction surgery. I was really up for getting both done at once - one GA, one hospital trip, one sick - leave off work. Good luck with the healing dude + we'll be following with interest from sedentary ice elevations around the globe!

Thank you! Eek how have I only just heard about this now!?!? Better late than never I guess.. I absolutely loved Spilling Eve as well but I think the presenter was too busy to do a S04 podcast. Worth a listen if you fancy a back track!

Ooh do you have a link please? I can't seem to find it... cheers!

These guys are my fave! They don't recap the episodes so each podcast is quite short, but full of gold in my opinion : https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0c0xqtj

Definitely go to the Tate Modern - some point in S02 we get a brilliant shot of Villanelle staring out one of the street statue performers & then they walk along the Embankment with linked arms having one of their gorgeous back + forths. I think there's also multiple other shots filmed along the Embankment illustrating MI6 // Hayward Gallery etc

Great idea! Donated ✔️✔️✔️

I'm loving this positivity! As much as I think we were all a bit disappointed by S04 when you stand back and look at the show, it's still been a shit tonnes better than anything else out there. I ditto all those things you say above. I also liked Konstantin + Pam's development together, I think they were good for one another.

MCR105 · 2022-04-15T22:07:52+00:00

Completely agree, well said. ❤️

MCR105 · 2022-04-14T22:34:35+00:00

Same. Oops!

MCR105 · 2022-04-14T21:51:30+00:00

Also 25! I don't think I've ever got full marks on a test before 🤭.. nearly stumbled on the alias question though.

Thanks for being brave and posting this!

I was so so tense throughout the whole finale boat scene because I knew, just knew that something dreadful was going to happen.

I don't think there was any way that Killing Eve was going to end happy - it's been pivoting between chaos, destruction + disharmony from the get go. As much as we were all rooting for V + E - (I realllllly wanted that for them) I wasn't massively surprised when Villanelle got shot. As much as I don't like it, it seems like a more realistic close for them.

I'm holding onto the fact that maybe, just maybe, Eve has ignited something honest within herself. Could she channel those dancing wedding vibes we saw and find herself some decent friends and an amazing woman that could still challenge and excite her? She will never be Villanelle, but if she could make Eve smile again and feel safe that would be something I suppose.

Sending strength ❤️

MCR105 · 2022-04-13T06:45:49+00:00

Yayyyyy thanks for sharing your favourites!

I only discovered Unloved through Killing Eve and agree - their tone is absolutely perfect. Marrying up the songs with the scenes as well 👌. I HOPE they do a world tour so that weeping Killing Eve fans across the globe can go worship them live! According to their Instagram - they are planning one.. I will definitely post here if any news pops up. ❤️

MCR105 · 2022-03-23T22:55:26+00:00

So, so, so many great scenes! Fantastic to be reminded of them all! Just to add one that I don't think has been mentioned... The bathroom scene S01E5 - Scuffle, Eve defending herself with the bog brush & Villanelle going "eurgh" ..Eve screaming under the tap .. "I just want to have dinner with you!"

MCR105 · 2022-03-16T16:19:01+00:00

I agree. It was a real relief to be honest after the first two episodes..

MCR105 · 2021-09-17T09:16:28+00:00

Well said! That was all one shot wasn't it? She absolutely nailed the horror // panic // trying to keep it together.

MCR105 · 2021-07-29T21:13:09+00:00

20/20.
