A lot more has been added (and stolen) since this was filmed.

Lockdown boredom was the cause of this in most towns.

Yours was probably removed because it contains advertising :capnscotty:

I’m in Warminster tomorrow. Where can I view your Python? Is it public? I’m obviously not requesting to rock up to your garden :shock:

Yes it is, t'is just outside the Chapel of St Lawrence on the main High Street (it's next door to a major local landmark, a shitty derelict building covered in scaffolding that has been left to rot for over 10 years now).

The end of my video zooms out to show you exactly where.

Trying to order an American style Fridge/Freezer from Currys for my parents.

Go to the product page, put in their postcode and it says "Yes, we can deliver this to <postcode>" and gives a bunch of options for picking a delivery date.
Pick a date, add the product to the basket, click through to go to the checkout and suddenly it says "Sorry, we don't deliver that item to your location"

Well why not just strawberry floating tell me that on the product page when you ask for the postcode and explicitly state you deliver that item to that postcode?

I'm assuming it's due to some restrictions on 2-person deliveries for large/heavy items like this, and that's absolutely fine, it's just infuriating that they ask for all the information, say they'll deliver, then once you go through to pay suddenly turn around and say "Actually no"

The fact that Metro have now added one of those 'you are using an adblocker' things to stop you from viewing their pages.

When the adblocker is off, the ads are so numerous and intrusive they completely ruin the entire article!

I had a fridge delivery from them a few weeks ago. Booked it for a week Sunday on the website. They then text me a few hours later to say they were delivering it THE NEXT DAY. No means to contact Customer Service because apart from the phone lines (which had a wait of over an hour) there’s no way to contact them. Thankfully I was home anyway, but for somebody else that would have really screwed them over.

Their price match is a bust as well as that also relies on the phone lines...which are jammed solid.

People who call you about 20 minutes before a meeting you're scheduled to have with them anyway. No, I didn't pick up because I was in the loo/getting a cuppa etc in the non-meeting time before the allocated time for us to discuss this thing.

The fact that "Tipp" the little example trainer guy in Ring Fit does all of the exercises the wrong way round. "Raise your left leg" the instructions say and what does Tipp do? Raises his right strawberry floating leg! :x

I get that the visual is probably easier for people to replicate if it aligns with the side of their body they need to move, but it's still wrong! :capnscotty:
