    [Technology] Out of contract with Sky - Tips ?

    It’s certainly one to keep an eye on. The £110 deal I agreed was not confirmed in writing and did not resemble future bill charges. There was a big overcharge. May have been a genuine over sight but I wasn’t going to take the chance. I put in a couple of complaints over the past 2 days and...

    [Technology] Out of contract with Sky - Tips ?

    Current package ; Signature / Netflix (without ads)/ Cinema (incl paramount +) / Hd / multi screen/ superfast BB. This was costing £103.50/mth. Discounts ending was going to take it to £133/mth so had to take action. Had the dance with Sky. Used Eetv/bb as leverage. Resulted in getting...

    [Technology] Out of contract with Sky - Tips ?

    Just been doing further research. BT tv is now EE tv. It looks mainly like a streaming service with a small box with hard disk to atleast record programmes. It doesn’t look as integrated as Sky Q. I would consider Now tv directly but seems a compatibility issue with Panasonic tvs. My...

    [Politics] Is democracy in crisis?

    Agree that the left/right divide is being broken. I came across the term ‘diagonalists’ a while back which highlighted the coming together of disparate groupings. Plenty on it on t’Internet.

    [Food] Lose 7lbs in November

    “Everybody has their own individual weight set-point – the weight that your brain wants you to be. If you’re lucky, your weight set-point is in the normal range.” Dr Andrew Jenkinson. I read this authors book Why We Eat Too Much a couple of years ago. This and a book by Chris van Tullekin...

    [Politics] How do you deal with people obsessed with political views?

    On reading this for some reason I shouted out ‘Gary’ in Only Fools & Horses style. I’m wondering if this is the distraction answer!

    [Technology] Out of contract with Sky - Tips ?

    Thinking of moving from Sky tv/broadband (Sky Q box) to BT package Full Works + Fibre 1. The latter includes all the main Sky stuff we use plus sports for the same money. Any one transferred over to BT ? Just checking for any pit falls.

    [Politics] How do you deal with people obsessed with political views?

    Need a bit of help here. I’ve got family members who seem to turn everything in to politics. Just general, easy going conversations within minutes turn in to a comment that supports their political view. It’s usually opinion based with no evidence. Their obsession is getting on my...

    [Help] Tea leaf at the Amex?

    Just put it down to one of those things. It wouldn’t have been personal. Forgo these next match and you’ll have your much cherished calendar.

    [Albion] Oh Pep

    If you get that much attention from him, take it as a compliment. He brushed past a few players to shake hands with Igor. He’s a shite loser but he knows why they lost.

    [Technology] Has anybody come off of Twitter / X? How easy did you find it?

    I use it for football and use ‘Recent searches’ as only interested in a dozen or so accounts. It’s useful for complaining to companies as usually get a response. General feed is full of lovable animals which pull in the gullible for Musk’s propaganda. I’ve had an account since Jan 2011 but...

    [Food] Lose 7lbs in November

    I try and think lifestyle rather than diet. Food, exercise and importantly, mental health. Comfort eating/drinking, when under stress and anxious, is a trip wire.
