Re: Vertical line of text in an email on my phone?

Turning the phone on its side usually fixes vertical text for me. YMMV.

Re: Heat pumps

I don't have one myself but my father does. His system is working perfectly and has done for five years now. He's in the Highlands so he sees his fair share of freezing temperatures, not once has he encountered any problems. As I live just a few miles away from him, I know he has had temperatures as...

Re: Photographers / Photography advice thread

Thats a slight problem with Olympus. I think you are limited to Olympus' own branded lenses. Whereas with Nikon, Fuji etc you arent. And you end up paying a premium. This isn't true, I shoot with an Olympus E-M1 Mklll and have 4 or 5 lenses modern from manufacturers other than Olympus. The only thi...

Re: Cordless Grass Mower

I got a Gtech one last year when they were on offer, it's fantastic. It has cut the mowing time down from an hour to 15 minutes. The battery lasts for two full cuts and I received a quick charger that only takes an hour. I also have their hedge trimmer and the grass strimmer, to go with the large an...

"why was Defour taken off?"

Are you really questioning a decision by the man who has taken us to 6th in the EPL?

Re: Broara Rangers v Fort William

My dad played for both these teams in the 60's. I suggested that this score would be the Highland League record win but he put me right. He played for Brora Rangers when they first joined the league, the team was made up of whoever wasn't working on the day. They hold the record for the heaviest def...

Re: O/T sportsmania alternative

When I tried sportsmania on Saturday the links didn't work at all with a UK connection so a VPN is pretty much essential. The need for a VPN depends on which ISP you're with. For example, my sister is with Plusnet and needs a VPN, I'm with SSE and have never needed one. This is because not all ISPs...

Re: Burnley Vs Liverpool Milk Cup Semi Final 2nd Leg 15.02.83

I was at both legs, Kemlyn Road at Anfield with the family, we had no bother at their ground but I remember being a bit scared. I remember Derek Scott having 3 chances/half chances in that leg, wasn't it his birthday too? In the Longside for the second leg, crushed to a pulp when we scored but learn...
