No drama, must be alot of work hoarding all those vikings!

Youre right, we have this at my own club and while chaotic works well. As it happens, whole on holiday I put myself fwd for a handful of matches on playtomic and none of them came thro.

I should have asked to be added to the local padel club to my holiday resort WhatsApp chat but judging on dialogue I suspect they wouldn't have agreed to it.

Thanks for taking the time he time to reply

Off topic, but really loving "the russia", it has a great tone to it

Urgh, the ones that say "well my ice car can do 700 miles on a tank so until EV can do that I'm not doing it" annoy the hell out of me.

I know damn well they're never driven that far without stopping at least once

Hah, that's a cool solution [no pun intended]

Yup, spot on, I didn't explain it clearly enough but how you articulate it is better: it does indeed have a digital "On" switch so just giving it power doesn't achieve what I need

Yeah, I wish I did but alas not

I feel like I'd benefit from a smart dehumidifier.

I'm on a Time Of Use tariff where my electricity is very cheap at night. I'd like to be able to schedule for it to come on for those 5hrs in the winter to take the moisture out of my shed-office. It achieves nothing to put it on a smart meter as you have to physically press go on the dehumidifier

What's madness to me is that people in my country have a holiday to the US booked... and are still going.

My safety is worth more than a few sunk thousand

Thanks, pocketcast is US so I'm moving to your proposal of AntennaPod

I'm not in the US but that's truly chilling to hear. When you're not surrounded by it, you don't realise how normalised something becomes in a different part of society.

I immediately went looking on temu :)

I don't the poster meant to happen!

Great point, what sort of a hellscape is that!?
