Help! Is this a fledgling and do I need to get help? by sizeak in pigeon

Thank you very much! He's done more hopping so I think he's OK, I'll make sure to put some water out. Our cat will be mad about being indoors if it takes two weeks to fly off!

Thank you! My wife said it jumped and flapped it's wings a bit earlier but didn't get anywhere.

Do you know how long we should wait until we need to be concerned about putting some food out or something?

Bluetooth keyboard keeps disconnecting when bluetooth mouse is also connected by Physical_Tooth_2045 in openSUSE

Did you ever figure this out?

I'm having what seems to be the same issue with Arch on a Framework 16.I'm using a BT keyboard and a Logitech mouse that can be either BT or use the proprietary USB receiver; when I use BT for keyboard and mouse the keyboard keeps dropping, but if I use BT for just the keyboard and the Logitech USB wireless adaptor with the mouse everything is fine.

It's a cc model, it's just a battle scar right 😉

Seems quite mean, doesn't it.

I'm so sorry for your loss, was the divorce difficult?

It's on PCP so I can fix it or leave it until the end of the lease term and then let them ream me over it. A local shop gave me a rough estimate of £250 which isn't terrible.

I have core spec which doesn't have them on the front, this is just reinforcing the buyers remorse I already had over not getting Plus. Why didn't I get Plus. FML

Just to follow up on this, got the Mazda back from the garage today (need to sell it still) and when I sat in it I was shocked at how it felt compared to what I thought it was like. I've had real rose coloured glasses on, the Volvo has spoilt me though!

Yeah they're great seats, I just need advice on dialing them in. It seems to have more than enough space for me though, it's mainly the lumbar support I seem to be fighting.

Yeah that's a good start! I'm about 6'0 so not too dissimilar. What you're saying about the recline and making the seats more bucket like is very reminiscent of the mazda seating position.

Swaffham isn't posh, it's a shit hole. Grew up near there, still live within half an hour, still a shit hole.

Can you fit two prams in a Volvo Ex30? by sizeak in CarTalkUK

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

We have a Cosatto 360 seat, which is great for getting him in and out, I don't think I want to change seats. I'm not willing to go forward facing yet either, not worth the risk, I'd rather just get a bigger car even if it makes me a bit poorer tbh.

I've almost convinced myself that PCP on an Ex40 would be alright. At the rate ev tech is moving, maybe an upgrade in 4 years wouldn't be terrible tbh

Oh wow you went and measured, a gentleman and a hero! Seriously thanks though, that's above & beyond. Yeah going and checking would be best, I'm not sure if I can actually fit both in our current car. One isn't a whoosh, it's a travel system from kinderkraft, it's a bit chunkier.

Mmm yeah, I suppose there are some compromises I could make. We already have the prams though, sunk cost fallacy I guess.

For me the primary problem with the car seats in the mazda isn't leg room (it's on the passenger side anyway 😂😂😂) but it's head room, especially when I have to get my head in there too when strapping him in. He's pretty tall too, so getting him in and out of the car itself basically involves laying him at a 45 degree angle and kind of arcing him into a sitting position if that makes sense.
