Yes It allows you to mirror the screen of the computer or display a slide show, presentation on a second screen, using a USB cable from the computer it converts to a HDMI connection to go in to the second display, 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimST2 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Just booked my ST in for two new front tyres. PS4s fitted for £188 (the pair) through Blackcircles when Ford wanted £155 each! Will get the new front alloy fitted at the same time 😊 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 That's a really good price, when I was looking at replacing them for my Fiesta, they were going to be about £135 each even through black circles 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk I was thinking of putting it in the garage but don't know if dad is going to put his car in later when he comes back to unload the tools he might have taken to do some DIY in his friend's house. Only thing exposed is the front so hopefully I don't see anything there 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Y Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I don't like that my council have not emptied my household waste bin this morning and that they didn't empty my recycling bin last week either. This is despite me being on their assisted service (due to illness/disability) where they actually collect the bin from my property and return it once emptied Had to file a missed collection report for the 3rd or 4th time in 2 years. Either they aren't checking the driver notes or they have been taking my downstairs neighbours bins instead of mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
