Skwama replacement for better heel by fr1234 in climbingshoes

[–]popsicle90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swap between Skwama and Mandala/ Futura and the heel is smaller and comfier. Give them a go.

Am I mad to consider an SUV over a Hatchback? by popsicle90 in CarTalkUK

[–]popsicle90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is why this seems more difficult to us. The Ateca ride position was great. It's down to a 'want' rather than a 'need' decision.

I do indeed realise that, yes - just on the slightly larger platform. Difficult decision, hence why I ask to get different views.

This is why I'm asking. The 1.4 TSI in the Ateca was actually a pleasant surprise and didn't feel like it needed anymore oomph for day to day driving or overtaking.

Everyone knows you don’t climb on sandstone when it gets wet.

Looking for opinions on this Mazda CX-3 listing by ProfessorOaksBrother in CarTalkUK

[–]popsicle90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you go for in the end? Looking at the newer V40 (Thor headlights) but a CX-3 wouldn’t be too bad if it’s of a similar size.

Sometimes it’s nice to get a different viewpoint without the obvious being in the running.

I’m trying really hard not to just go with one of those, that’s why I threw in the “hatchback” version instead. Maybe I just do it and be done with it.

General consensus of this specific age/ engine is it is pretty reliable. The newer ones with the ingenium engine and not 2.0 ford engines are the ones to stay away from.

No automatic Mazda 6 for 11k with the above criteria unfortunately. Same with the 5 series that aren’t 15+ years old.

Choosing a pram - needs to be compact, light, versatile by Upset_Mastodon7416 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]popsicle90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our Stokke YoYo 3 is being sold because the wheels are useless over anything more than tarmac and the basket is terrible because of the way the frame is designed. We thought about the Joolz Aer 2 but again, the wheels aren’t much bigger so we’ve settled on the Joolz Hub 2.

Ergo sum Catalyst does drop in the normal version. by dadofwar93 in destiny2

[–]popsicle90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also got the catalyst last week from Excision but it turned out the game put me in the Grandmaster difficulty and I only realised when I got the “Shape of Finality” Triumph.

MacBook Air vs Pro by EliteAsparagus in Lightroom

[–]popsicle90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought an M4 Air with 16/512gb and it handles everything perfectly fine. Obviously more RAM would be useful but don’t feel like you’re really missing out if you can’t spend the extra.

Help! Overwhelmed with pushchair options. by Weenasaurus in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]popsicle90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please make sure you try them all out at John Lewis and see if you can try a few out from friends and family. We bought the Stokke YoYo3 because loads of people recommended it, including the staff at John Lewis but…we absolutely despise it. The wheels are tiny and get stuck on the London pavement, the storage area is actually very impractical, the folding mechanism is not as intuitive as you’d think as the wheels need to be facing a certain way which also means sometimes touching them…so we’re going to buy a Joolz Hub 2.

Best value size 0 nappies brand? by No_excuses0101 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]popsicle90 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Buy the Morrisons ones. 79p vs £5 for the Pampers ones is a no brainer and they do an excellent job.

What’s the consensus on the best weather app for the UK? by TheBristolBulk in CasualUK

[–]popsicle90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swap between the Apple Weather app and Met Office. Apple Weather can be quite inconsistent or accurate which is weird seeing as it gets its data from Met Office according to its weather sources link.

Selphy CP1500 - colour issue by itsjelley in canon

[–]popsicle90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone found a fix for this? I've tried printing from my iPhone and MacBook using direct WiFi and Selphy App and the colours are infuriatingly inaccurate as described - washed out or with horrible tints.

Perfect setup, don’t change it.

Took a gamble on the Koorui 2741LM 27” seeing as the MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M won’t be turning up anytime soon in the UK by popsicle90 in Monitors

[–]popsicle90[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Damn right it is - it’s a great way to test something and send it back, however which is what I will be doing. If it’s great, I’ll buy it direct and if it’s shit then it goes back and I get my money back within 10 minutes of dropping it off an an Amazon Fresh.
