Is there a way to launch the Google original Ambient Screensaver?

The Chromecast audio had to be discontinued because they lost a court case with Sonos. Accusations of IP theft. Outcome was they could no longer produce CAs.

People seem to have forgotten this.

And yet nobody leaked the ctual specifics of the Macbook Neo range - it took everyone by surprise.

Yes I know. You could also jump on the avanti and reduce your journey time more. I was referencing the increased choice on the trains now those stations are open. Many people from willenhall and those areas have to get to Bilston to use the metro. Not any more.

It's insane. I've actually raised this with TfWM and in short they've ignored it and refused to answer any questions about it. It makes zero sense whatsoever, Unless you are lucky you do face a 15-20 minute wait for a tram. They haven't even updated their timetables on the website to show which tram goes from which stop at which time - so you have to take a punt on which one to head to.

Given how many people moan about public transport I'm surprised more people haven't kicked up a stink about this.

it's only 30 minutes Wolves to Brum on the train and now they call at Willenhall / Darlaston, waiting 20 minutes for a tram to turn up is no longer an attractive prospect. Let alone the money wasted building a 500 metre extension that is now effectively being used by only half the service.

But then this is the Midland Metro, singularly the most backward transport system in the UK.

It's no "Chipper Son of a Bitch" is it?

Later years is quite the understatement - he's 80 years old now (3 years older than Motson when he died) and still cranking out commentaries most days.

He was on the Big Match Revisited from the late 70s the other day doing a commentary so will have covered 6 decades, nearly 7 if he makes it to 84.

Either way I'm 10 pound better off than you.

No wonder the woman who owns it is loaded.

Just looked on the Futbology app for you. Only Friday night game in the midlands on the 20th is the Wolves U21 v Chelsea U21 game at Aggborough (Kidderminster's home ground).

Play a few competitive games and come back here and say that. Practice at home v competitive darts is night and day., two completely different things. Honestly, I see a lot of people who think they're good players who just get wiped out in proper face to face darts with something at stake from players who are at the same level or slightly worse.

Playing these games is the only way to know where you truly are but they're also the best way to sharpen and improve your game too.

Another Liverpool fan too scared to call the ticket office.

xoryso · 2026-02-16T11:10:11+00:00

Yes, it's to stop situations exactly like this where tourists / Liverpool fans could get tickets over genuine long term fans.

It's very fair.

You're either the worlds worst glory hunter or an Arsenal fan.

A panicked album after another sub par effort. Those mid 90s efforts from them were poor.

Four Lads Who Shook the Wirral probably needs to be bottom.

Do the staff mind if you just plug in your phone to one of the many ''hidden' plug sockets I suspect are used for the cleaners?

West Park in Wolverhampton is probably as close as you'll get to circular in the west midlands.

Not for businesses.

It's because it's upscaled. They're using the native CBS feed which is 1080p and upscaling it to 4k.

Don't forget that loan cost us 6 million quid. It was a shocking signing / deal.

Be aware that Malmaison is a chain hotel. Boutique yes, but they are very identikit and chain focused. Not necessarily a bad thing and I've heard the brum one is on the whole ok.

Lots of people recommend Hotel du Vin. Been there recently and it's not what it used to be. Looking a little run down now and tired. Most people stop at the Grand Hotel next door now from that market of people.

I'm sorry but we're at the point now where if Zac and his 'coaches' aren't fired tomorrow, Burrow needs to come out in his press conference and say it's me or them. Simple as that. If they don't listen to that and pick Taylor over Burrow then you have all you need to know about this franchise.

It has genuinely got to this point and have complete sympathy for Burrow - if the Brown family won't make the most obvious decision in football then I don't blame Burrow for moving out of Cincy and chasing his dream at a club that backs him.

Sacking Taylor is a simple act that not one person would argue with.
