I don't like when a listing shows 3 magnetic ends and only get 1 which don't make sense at all,i think im right that this listing is for 3 ends and the lead,i know its not the best but just mainly for 2 old phones,i have put the link below so is it right as if not i cant see anywhere to buy the other ends even if i wanted to and if that's the case you have to buy 3 leads.

It looks genuine to me. On the options it says to pick one and the last picture shows the types of them. The picture of the three ends probably are to show how it's compatiblity.

Looking at it i can see now,how dumb am i and yes im blonde 🤣 i see what it is so good job i had the S9 end (C) and going to get the mico u.s.b for my old S7.

Was only to charge my s7 and option of s9 as i already have a fast charge s9 lead and Wireless.

Silly thing but check also the balance is correct and that no one set the balance so one side of the car has sound 👍

I know I hoped it would be that but it is set correctly, and when I adjusted it to all the way right it only plays out of the rear door speaker :sad:

People with company fuel cards that don't care what the cost is lol!  Is 1.48 the cheapest around there though?  I thought paying £1.33 here last week was bad enough! 😮 

I paid €1.48 for premium Diesel from CircleK last Thursday 

Doesn't seem so bad now compared to uk prices 

Seems like we're not too bad up here then? 🤔

Gee wiz!  And I thought £1.30 was bad when my local Tesco went up recently (it's now back down to £1.27).

I don't like that thunderstorms are forecast for the next 3 days and that there's a yellow alert out. 
I really hate thunderstorms.

@Lenny have you seen the chopper video with Thunderstruck? 😎

 

 

I don't like realising that laundry liquid is actually cheaper than powder these days, I wonder how long that has been the case...  😮 I just buy a big box every few months as I always assuned that was cheapest!  Thought it seemed odd that the powder selection even in large supermarkets keeps getting smaller!!  Are there any down sides to liquid?  I mean, I wash myself, the car and the kitchenware in liquid so it makes me wonder why any of us still use powder in the washing machine anyway... :laugh:

The liquid comes in a plastic bottle which is more difficult to recycle than Cardboard 

Positively though the liquid will blend with the water faster at much lower temperatures, 

Caustic is originally a liquid substance which turns to power when dry; so it probably cleans better when wet

Yeah, that's a fair point, I did think about the plastic use although that sort of plastic is collected in our kerbside recycling here alongside cardboard. 

The smaller pack size for the same amount of  washes should mean less lorries needed to transport it, so less CO2 produced that way...  All swings and roundabouts when looking at the environmental effects!

Most of my clothes are also at least partly plastic so that's really not ideal with putting microplastics into the waste water as well...have you been watching Hughs war on plastic?  That's something I really didn't like... 😮

 

 

Things i don't like. Driving behind skip lorries when stuff flies out. On my way home and a brick escaped. Got stuck with nowhere to go so had to bare the brunt of it. Brick hit my lower grill. Chipped my paint a bit but main damage is done to the lower grill. Dented it and snapped a couple of connections. Was not happy that day i tell you.

Did you get the registration number and company name of the skip firm?
If you did you can report it to the police and they could prosecute the driver for an insecure load. They could also help if you need to claim replacement parts from the company insurance.

Yeah i've got all the details. Phoned them on Friday and they said they will review the footage and get back to me. Just waiting for the transport manager to do so now.
