There is the Isle of Man TT and the other road races held in Northern Ireland such as the North West 200. In England Oliver's Mount in Scarborough is used for road racing.

Wing/side mirrors have the advantage of always working whereas cameras often fail (in my experience of the vans at work). On my car the wing mirrors are best for positioning when when reversing into a parking space with the camera good for telling you when you are reversed up close to the...

"Please do not take trolleys past this point." would seem to get the point across without being unnecessarily abrupt.

Whoops! :D

Round here DAB reception is also patchy which can affect which platform I choose to use when driving round the viillages. DAB in a pub in the town centre is an absolute dead loss. Don't agree that data consumption for an audio stream is that much of a burden - for most apps but there is one I...

Have you considered streaming radio from your phone instead?

Curiously I have come across a handful of cases recently where the content is listed on archive.org but marked as unavailable - but the same content is readily available on Youtube albeit with some ad breaks and the inconvenience of of being more of a faff to play (being classic radio shows...

Not necessarily. The Milton Keynes Coachway for example caters for through services as does the Aylesbury bus station.

When the bus station is next to the train station seems fair enough to call them that when giving directions to a lost soul. After all a roadway station if ever used could also mean the taxi rank. On the other hand we don't say planeport.

It is more that it is yet to be determined if an issue is a problem or not.

Four and two then. And what does "relate to" mean in this context?

One modern language usage that bugs the hell out of me is saying "learnings" rather than "lessons". Seems to be a particular favourite of losing sports teams trying to take the positive out of a poor performance.

No matter which variant of 5/Five they go for it will always make them sound like fifth (out of four) in the pecking order of the main FTA broadcasters. Perhaps they need to bite the bullet and go extreme left field in a rebrand and call themselves Best (of the Rest) for example.

And yet aftermarket screens that plug into old DIN slots are readily available to provide older vehicles with the modern ICE experience. I recently changed to a newer car (from 1999 to 2019) yet was disappointed with its ICE screen. In particular when playing music/podcasts over Bluetooth from...

It is still a thing. We had a temporary replacement work van a couple of weeks ago with a radio that sat there saying WAIT 11 MINUTES THEN ENTER THE SECURITY CODE Except even after much longer than 11 minutes it did not let you enter the code. That is why I have a portable Bluetooth speaker...
