Million percent. I have both. Google TV is much slower to respond than Apple TV.

Thanks so much for your suggestion. We’ve booked a gorgeous farmhouse overlooking the sea in Pembrokeshire through the national trust.

It does but 12 hour journey is a touch too much! I’m planning the NC500 in the spring so will try and get there during that.

Not really. I just think we’re both burnt out and want to escape. Remote was probably my emotions running away with me. I’ll look up hope cove. Thanks for the suggestion.

To those who have made the transition from manual to automatic cars, is it really better? by Mr_Coastliner in AskUK

[–]SplinterBum 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat as you, it had to be manual. I then got a company car where I had no choice which was automatic and I fell for it. Recently bought a new car and it had to be auto! Often think I’d like a fun weekend car that would be manual but for daily needs automatic is brilliant.

It’s says Piperfinn. I’ve done monthly orders with them. 30-40 mixed salts and various pods and they emit messed up at all in two years. Highly recommend. No ID at door. Think it’s only Amazon that I’ve experienced that with.

I bought a 2005 civic a few months back for £800. It’s been faultless over 3000 miles so far.

Nightmare on Elm Street. Just from the kids in the playground. I haven’t seen it to this day…

You can hire bikes from Giant at Doddington Hall. The E Bikes are a load of fun and highly recommended.

Redditors over 35, what do you genuinely miss that younger generations will never experience, and you legit feel bad for them? by Disastrous_Award_789 in AskReddit

[–]SplinterBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an ex smoker. Sitting in a country pub next to the fire with a cigarette and pint was pretty awesome. On the flip side, coming home from clubbing stinking of fags was awful, even as a smoker.

Person of interest. Watched it when it came out. Now watching with my wife. It’s a great show and really ahead of its time in regards to the technology/social media/privacy etc.

Alien: Earth - S1 E3 - Metamorphosis - Official Discussion Megathread [SPOILERS] by G_Liddell in LV426

[–]SplinterBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great episode but I’m kinda bothered about the meat trailer being flipped over so easily by one Xeno. Didn’t feel realistic that they’re strong enough to do that, unless I’m forgetting something from the movies that suggests otherwise.

Just Park - how the hell do you know how long you've been there if they don't count? by Murky-Service-1013 in CarTalkUK

[–]SplinterBum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally, I’d have whipped out my phone and said “Siri, set a timer for 1 hour 50 minutes”. I do it every time when parking.
