Do you have a sound bar or just the TV speakers? I have similiar issues with a Sonos Beam through all inputs.

Announced on the BBC as over 45s. NSC breaking the news days (well, day) beforehand!

I had open surgery with a mesh, the surgeon said he felt it gave a stronger repair. Kept myself topped up on pain killers for couple of days and felt pretty out of it, but then went cold turkey and felt fine, just minor pain. I felt I could return to work within a week (desk job) but had been...

It's probably worth noting this thread, and that comment, are from 2015, you melt.

Admittedly in the current environment it's not so useful as a) I'm at home all day and b) the drivers literally ring the bell (Ring or not) and run. Pre-COVID I worked in different offices (hence not wanting to put a work address down) and had quite a lot of deliveries, it worked pretty well.

Exactly, it's person answering rather than the Ring itself that would give the game away. And in the scenario you mentioned, if that was me and I was genuinely concerned then I could contact a neighbour and ask them to check things out. So it sounds like if you're a bit stupid, are overly...

How does it do that exactly? With the Ring you have the option to answer and use the speaker function or not. If you chose not to use it, then it's just like any other door bell. If you do use it, it doesn't force you to be completely honest, nothing to stop you saying you're out and will be...

When I saw the headline, I had my doubts it was the best thing to do. For me we should make the existing cycling clubs diverse and welcoming of all, and ultimately that will lead to a more integrated society. Having specific cycling clubs based upon gender, race, sexual preferences, etc. just...

Watched most of the second one. I'd rather watch Mrs Brown's Boys.

I'd think it's valid where you don't have a single employer, or are working short term contracts. Given it's the employer who processes the payroll they are doing the tax calculations, which would be almost impossible if 2 or more companies were doing it in parallel. Similarly when you change...

Good memory! Google turned up this video and having watched it I can remember it too (but not as an all time classic). It appears to be called Apidya.

Having had a bit of a overdose of online quizzes, thought we'd do something different last night and play poker while virtually socializing. We used an app called Pokerface, which I wasn't a huge fan of for a few reasons: a) It seemed to only work on phones, I'd much rather use a laptop. b) It...

Right, I don't want to start my own thread so will hijack this one. I use a Lenovo Thinkpad laptop and have just bought a Lenovo USB-C dock to go with it. The laptop has a HDMI port (as does the monitor) and the picture is perfect using this. The dock has two DisplayPorts (DP), and therefore I...

Did they give the definition of slow? In the Jack Daniels videos he said easy run should be 60% of max heart rate. Now I assume he means take 60% of the difference between your resting HR and max HR and adding this to your resting? So if you resting is 70 and max is 180, you can 60% of 110 =...

Assuming you did that during a training run, I think you'd find a huge chunk would come off if done in a race or parkrun. I wouldn't be surprised if you were approaching 20 mins. But perhaps maybe you can push it much harder in training than I can! Speaking of parkrun, I download the official...

For those of you with little uns, you could look into buggy running which you can do with them from around 6 months old. Not only does it get you out exercising, it’s pretty good at sending them off to sleep too!

Only just realised the AG was SB not PB, so thanks for looking that one up for me knocky1. Having set my PB over 5 years ago now, I realise that I am very close to setting an AG PB even if I'm still a way off my time PB. Parkrun really should record AG PBs I think! Speaking of rapid times...

Since you're going to be updating the table, I don't feel so bad being very late to report my new SB from Saturday, 20:28. With sub-20 now being in reach I was doing some research (aka Googling) on the effects of weight loss. Seems to be about 2 seconds per mile per lbs. Hopefully that's the...

A bit of Googling suggests that Victoria Docks is rated as the fastest parkrun course there is (see below link). Based upon your travels would you agree? Sussex features pretty well with Worthing (#3) & Hove prom (#18) among the fastest and Bevendean Down (#7) in the slowest...

Recorded a seasons best 20:46 (65.25%) at the weekend, which is the quickest I've recorded at this course since March 2015. Followed this up with a 15 miler on Sunday, which I believe is my 3rd longest run ever (the only longer ones having been recorded in marathons themselves). So, while I'm...
