Random Irritations

Now I did not know that and I shall now have to try and forget it since they are trying to find an earth that will still be very primitive...

That wanted to make it really primitive and real to life so filmed it in margate. In fact they had to modernize the place a bit ??

Mate its getting on for 20 years old....

Surely over 40 years old now!

Used to love BG when I was a kid. But was easy to confuse with Buck Rogers.

They remade it in 2003.

We just got an iPad Air 2020 and its USB C not Lightning. Which is a pain, as everything else in the house is Lightning!!

Add the fact that the iPhone uses the Lightning for headphones as well as charging so you can’t change and listen at the same time.

Lucifer is an Amazon original show, they decided to cancel it, but Netflix picked up the rights from them and have made new series.

Is this some kind of cartel in operation? "Let's split the rights between us so the suckers have to subscribe to Prime AND Netflix" <cue evil chuckles>

We cancelled our Prime subscription ages ago and then took out Netflix.
It's a constant game of chasing moving goalposts. The fragmentation of watchable stuff amongst paid for subscription services is getting very irritating.

Luckily I don't care about football - am I correct in understanding that you need Sky AND BT Sport to get a full fix?

You can get round that by having Virgin TV as they include both Sky & BT Sport in the package, but funny is right that you need Amazon as well.

However by having Virgin you miss out on Sky Atlantic. All swings & roundabouts.

Me. I have some great and expensive over ear wired Sennheiser head phones. Way better than any blue toothed junk I have tried, including my bose ones.

Trying to roll out a new service and finding it a lot harder than it seemed on paper and in our planning meetings

Be nice if the NHS got the old systems up and working probably first before introducing a new service.

This isn't a computer system. More a way of ensuring relatives and patient visitors are handled better during their visit. Long convoluted and boring story and management decided it's time to get more "customer focused" for want of a better description and it landed in my lap to formulate. Waste of resource and time as I've already tried to point out but it is ticking the right boxes so we carry on

Nicole Kidman, what have you done to your face? ?

We have started watching Undoing, I'm guessing this is where your post came from. It really is distracting, what is she doing to herself?

I'll add any women who has lip fillers. You were beautiful before now you look like someone's given you a fat lip
