  1. Concorde Memorabilia

    Well I guess the most important clue is what you can’t see, namely the aircraft from which the photograph has been taken. No-one gets that sort of picture of Concorde in flight, unless it’s been specially staged. Also very few fixed wing aircraft would give you such a view. Exceptions would include large RAF cargo aircraft like a C-17 or Hercules, with their rear ramp door open.

    It was obviously taken from a Canberra 😉

    Some routers and NAS boxes can enable VPN's but the easiest way is to run an app on your phone or program on PC/MAC.

    So your research to get a good reliable one. There are some dodgy ones usually free. Some anti virus software offers VPN options.

    Personally I use ExpressVPN which has been good and gets good reviews. There are often discount vouchers knocking around on some YouTube videos but I could not tell you if there are today. Be aware that some apps are now aware of VPN's being used for regional block work around so YMMV.

  3. New Boiler recommendations

    in General Chat

    Wouldn't touch BG. Used to have service contract with them and they are hopeless. I have been very happy with Gastech for service and maintenance. They will come next day for emergency.

    They give us consistent advice when they do the service. Our boiler is now is now 26 years old. Only needed a couple of parts replaced. Their advice is that they could sell us a new more efficient boiler but the amount saved would not cover the cost so keep running the old boiler until it stops.

    @jep, I was refunded the flight cost both ways (and meet & greet parking and a week's car hire!) but as the flights were cancelled the day before we were due to leave we are due compensation. Driving there and back cost us 2 days of our trip, which we were lucky enough to get back by extending our stay but 2,000 miles driving wasn't expected!

    I believe we're owed at least €250 per person for 4 people, if not double that if the return flight is included too. 

    The page to apply for it has been non-functional since June! You can fill in some details but it won't allow you to select your actual flight, there's an error in the code of the page. Quelle surprise!

    @Bibs Try the Which template. I used this for a BA flight and it worked a treat. It's all too common to the airline compensation websites to be "broken"
