Another few nights at the exclusive Travelodge,
Car park and wildlife view
How many 5 star hotels are attached to home bargains ?

I imagine the travelodge is slightly cheaper than a five star hotel.

£50 collected from Gumtree. Needed something for the hotel when the weather's crap.

Not pictured - cables and Fifa 20.

Anyone stayed in a travelodge where the shower curtain actually kept the water in the shower and wasn't 3 inches too short?

I stay in them a few times a year for work and half of them seem to have water damaged carpets and it's impossible not to soak the damn floor as the curtain hands too far away from the edge of the shower basin and drips outside. Seems like a modular design flaw!

Early Christmas pressie for me from the MM..

Another t-shirt

 

[Firestar_3x]

Needed a new toaster, went out and decided £140 on a 2 slice Sage toaster was the deal for me.

Came back to be informed i'm not allowed outside unsupervised till after Christmas.

 

[Buffman]

New shower tray which is 1500*700, 36kg and near £400 but it's one of the anti slip ones which I like (apart from the fact it picks up marks easy...)

I will need to screed the floor with the tray in but I don't think that's a big issue

 

[Diddums]

Ah nice, I too like that old-age-home chic. I'm tempted to fit those disabled rails in my toilet too, absolute corkers they are.

 

[mrk]

I just blue myself for £12.99.

Wonder how long that would take to download on my 1Mb/s connection?

Openreach this month announced that they have over 80% of the UK fibred up for FTTP if I recall, are you out in the sticks or something

118.5x how long it takes mrk?

Nope. In the middle of a city (Stoke-on-Trent) and not able to get fibre of any flavour via the OR cabinets. Openreach ****** up and missed our cabinet out when they were activated them, so all the surrounding streets can get fibre but ours can't, and they won't fix it as that means they'd have to admit to ******* up.

Can get LilaConnect 1GB though, so will be going for that once the front room is sorted out. Which is going to be a while because finding a plasterer at this time of year is, well yeah...

118.5 x 8x that long, MB vs Mb

Narp, 50%

Openreach reached the halfway point in its fibre-to-the-premises rollout and expanded the scope of the project with firm end-of-the-decade targets laid out. The footprint now covers 12.5 million premises, marking steady progress towards goals to reach 25 million by the end of 2026.

118MB/s downloaded it in about 12 minutes once it got going. You can easily calculate the maximum potential of your connection, just divide by 8. My line speedtests at 947Mbps, which equates to 118MB/s, so doing some maffs, that's 11 minutes

80% of the UK meaning England, lol.
