    Not sure tbh, it may be worth asking though.

    After some advice regarding a used car purchase.

    Thanks everyone for your advice. It turns out that the engine warning light turned itself off and he never took a photograph of it being on. So for now he hasn't contacted the dealer as as of right now, there is nothing wrong. He genuinely likes the car and wants to keep it, thats why he want...

    After some advice regarding a used car purchase.

    My son bought a used 20 plate Merc CLA 220D 9 days ago. He bought it on finance and paid extra for a 1 year extended warranty. On day 5 of ownership the engine management light came on and he immediately contacted the dealer who told him to bring it in straight away. Dealer diagnosed a faulty...

    Caravan tracking

    Ahh fair enough, i didn't know they worked like that. But if they were hidden properly, surely you would have enough time to locate the caravan if it was stolen? Wouldn't you know pretty soon, that it was stolen? Obviously if there is a dedicated tracker, this would be better, but as a temporary...

    Caravan tracking

    Wouldn't a couple of Air Tags hidden in the caravan do the job? Apple claims the battery can last upto 1 year.

    Make cannabis a Class A Drug, say Conservative Police Commissioners...

    Just wanted to leave a quick comment regarding THC strength. A grower can manipulate the result by harvesting a sample early. Eg. as the cannabis buds mature, the trichomes change colour (clear to cloudy to amber) and clear trichomes will have much lower THC then a bud with a mix of cloudy/amber...

    I am just at the part where she first enters the city and is being ripped off buying food supplies at the market. Does it get better? As so far its just not holding my interest.

    Currently about 100 pages into The Wandering Inn by Pirateaba. Its not really grabbing me so far, will give it a little longer but it looks like a dnf (did not finish) to me.

    What book are you reading...

    Just finished Legends and Latte's by Travis Baldree. Its not my usual type of fantasy, but I quite enjoyed it. It's about an Orc who opens a coffee shop, and her trials and tribulations. No action so to speak, but an enjoyable read nonetheless

    Samsung Warranty - Rubbish?

    A couple of points, If after 6 months, if there is a defect, it is upto the consumer to prove that the fault is down to poor build quality, so you may have to pay for an independant report to prove this. Most companies dont do this, but its in their rights to ask for the report. If you do have...

    Samsung Warranty - Rubbish?

    Surely your statutory rights come into play here? A product must be As described. Last for a reasonable amount of time. ( a £500 vacumn cleaner should last a longer then 1 year.) Fit for purpose. It doesn't matter what the company says, their policy can't ignore the law. Also your contract...

    Fully agree, his earlier stuff was much better, i think it was The Bear and the Dragon that eventually put me off Clancy
