There are some threads on this but they are very old and no longer relevant. I keep seeing retro devices such as these game sticks and the Amiga Mini etc. Just wondering if any knowledgeable people out there can make a recommendation on a good device that works well, with loads of games from...

Hi all. I will be spending Xmas in Manchester with my family (wife and two girls - 11 and 9). I'm on the lookout for nice things to do to make it a fun and magical Christmas without spending silly money. I've got a few ideas but could do with some tips from those in the know. Each of these...

Hi all. I've been considering investing in Holiday Property Bonds where you buy initial bonds (minimum investment of £5k but I would buy more than this) and every pound is worth a point. Then you can redeem the points (which renew every year) against a holiday in quite luxurious and exclusive...

***Post approved by admin*** Hi all. First of all, thanks for coming to this post - it's an important one. I work in education and recently visited Jigsaw Children's Hospice. Jigsaw is for very sick children who will never get better. It's all about giving them as good a life as possible...

Right, I've cancelled Sky cos they keep sneakily increasing the price and I'd rather use my money for something else. Is there something out there, like a Freeview box or something, or even something that I can connect to the Sky dish? I'd like something that's just a one-off purchase rather...

Thought I would ask in here as there always seems to be someone with the answer to anything! And no, it's not that type of video. I'm trying to download the educational video embedded within this BBC page: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/zw9bwmn It's not an embedded YouTube video. I'm...

Hi all. We came home yesterday to find a lot of water on the floor near the washing machine and tumble dryer. Couldn't quite figure out how it had happened. Anyway, I tried the washing machine again tonight and found out that, when it is draining dirty water, the water isn't leaving the house...

OK, so we know this game will be hugely anticipated. There's a good chance that it will break all sorts of records and we can be pretty confident that it will be spectacular. Stuff we know: The game is in development (we don't know that it's called GTA6 though). Leslie Benzies left the...

As a kid in the 80s/90s, I used to go to this barber. I remember that he would press his bits against my hand whilst cutting my hair, then charge me less than the full price. At the time, I was too innocent/naive to really recognise it for what it was so I never did anything about it. Just...

I was going to see him on tour in November. Sad news. He came out with some mad shit. I remember reading an interview he did with Q magazine back in the day and he said (might not be verbatim), "To share a toilet with my wife would be an abomination."...

From the BBC: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-58357046 Plans to lift the ban on standing in the English Premier League and Championship are set to be announced by the government, the BBC has learned. It is thought a handful of grounds will be able to use designated safe standing areas...

You'd think that drilling a couple of holes in a wall to put up a blind would be pretty straightforward but no. Why is it that every time I try to drill, the drill bit only goes in about half the length of the wall plug? No matter what drill bit I use, no matter what drill I use... this...

Absolute scumbag c*nts, throwing things at players. Embarrassing. Disgraceful. Shameful.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-49763805 So is 'blacking up' when in costume as Aladdin racist? If so, why?

Hi all. Just wondering which are the best action cams for attaching to a head strap while running. Looking for one with good stabilisation and long battery life and which will pick up spoken word easily when outside (but doesn't make any other rattly noises itself). Also one that is small and...

Can any computery people out there give me some advice? I'm trying to set up Shopify to use my domain and also to use e-mail through Office 365, also with my domain. I originally bought the domain from 123-reg.co.uk. Yesterday, I had Shopify working. I successfully tested by buying and...
