Anyone who thinks of, scripts or states the word 'housebarrassment'. You utter ninnyhammers - I will never, ever step inside your store again.
The concept is ludicrous.
Friends they haven’t seen for a while announce they’re going to visit and because of their ‘housebarrassment’ they have an entire brand new kitchen fitted. May I suggest that you actually look after this new kitchen and clean it once in a while, you soapy tits.
On adverts - the one that really annoys me. The guy who invites everyone he knows to an arena, then gradually tells them all to sit down, just so he can have coffee in front of everyone else with 3 people he hasn't spoken to in 10 years!
Guy's a an absolute tool, hope he chokes on his coffee, the selfish inconsiderate cockwomble
They are gathering data on you all, I got laughed at when I mentioned this a while back
They'd do well gathering data on me mate, I ain't got one and I don't think my 94 year old next door neighbour, 3 miles up the road, has an Alexa, seeing as she only got electricity about 11 years ago 😉

If you get the chance watch Panorama that was broadcast on Monday 17th, it will be on BBC catch up. People on there that worked for Amazon saying they switched Alexa off if they wanted to discuss private things. Also take a look at the data Amazon are collecting on their clients.

Data rules in this modern world. My view is you kinda accept it, as long as you have nothing to hide, or you go and live off grid in a Yurt. If a company wants your data enough they will get it if you have some kind of online presence. in which case you might as well suck it up and take the benefit of the products they're offering.

Watch the programme, it went way beyond them checking your purchase history and offering you things you may be likely to buy. There was evidence that can harvest the data from the sites you had recently visited before and after you click onto Amazon. One lady suspected her political views were being logged.

I'm sure they are doing that. My point is this will happen by one organisation or another if you have any online presence so why spend your life worrying about it. its gonna happen either way so unless you've got something to hide accept it.
Last night had to go to Gatwick Airport. Junction 7 of the M25 closed Southbound. No advice as what to do.
The flight was delayed anyway and I had to try and find an alternative route to Gatwick. I don't have a sat nav and could not stop to get a map out. I am fortunate enough to know that the A23 would get me there leaving me with the problem of how the hell to find the A 23. Just to make it more difficult they decided to close the M25 between junctions 8 and 9 too!
I ended up taking the M23 North, the rationale being that eventually it would take me to Croydon if the worst came to the worst and I could link up with the A 23 there. I eventually found a petrol station and thought I'd ask on the off chance someone would know a better way to the A 23. Luckily the bloke in there knew his way about and told me to turn round follow the signs to Redhill which I knew was on the A 23. This was in Coulsdon. I arrived at Gatwick probably 15 minutes later than I would anyway with all the average speed cameras.
I was lucky to have a modicum of local knowledge. Another satnavless person with no local knowledge would have really struggled. No accountability of course. Faceless bureaucrats just give travellers grief on a whim.
People without sat navs, why? Sat navs are a driving necessity. Not a dig Len, I just don’t get it?
Never had one. I am technologically challenged and the computer skills necessary to be able to interact on this forum are an achievement for me.
I do occasionally borrow my daughter's if driving to somewhere I don't know but she sets it up and I just listen.
I know where Gatwick Airport is and where I live so didn't need it as I thought.
Tbh I genuinely dont know how I'd survive without google maps when I drive. I even use it on routes I know fairly well. It's not for a lack of geography it's because you never know when you will encounter an accident or road closure and to help with the complexity of the road system particularly driving in and around london. It allows for a bit more anticipation and allows you to plan ahead particularly to get in the correct lane for some madly complex junctions. Half the time road markings and signs dont tell you which lane you need until it's too late to change when its busy. It makes a hell of a difference.

Len, I live in a proper house and get grief as well.

if you've got nothing to hide in your browsing history then you're internetting incorrectly
Got an awful cold. Started as a piercing earache for two days, and yesterday everything just decided to fall out my nose. Woke up with my moustache so snot encrusted it looked like I was playing a harmonica no handed. To top it all off, I make an extra spicy curry so that I had a chance to taste it, and my aris is going like the whistle on a kettle
