  1. It's definitely a general Chrome issue that it's a resource hungry app. I Googled around (ironic) and found that it's a common issue with Macs and Chrome. Using another browser can save hours in battery, apparently. In the Activity Monitor there were several entries for Chrome Helper Tool, each accounting for several hundred MB. Safari is fine, but there are no Favicons and I rely on them a lot, so Firefox is looking like the best option right now.
  2. I always knew you had a lot in common with Leandro Bacuna.
  3. Probably not ideal for my line of work. Alright for browsing in Starbucks though I've ended up going through Safari, Opera, Vivaldi and now Firefox this morning. Gonna stick with Firefox for now. Not used it for years, but it seems to have the visuals and functionality I need.
  4. How did anyone get on with this? I'm finding that Chrome is just eating way too much memory on my Mac so I'm looking for an alternative. Don't like that Safari doesn't allow Favicons so I need an option. Help!
  5. And today he looks like the result of Mr T and Limahl having a baby...
  6. If you buy a rundown, once-grand, house the first thing you do is fix the roof - not hang up nice wallpaper and curtains.
  7. Importantly, he's a better player than when we signed him. He's making better runs and he's showing more composure. If the next stage of development is his support play, we're really going to have a player on our hands.
  8. Open Google Maps on your phone. Be delighted. Come back and share your joy.
  9. 4-1-2-2-1 or 4-2-3-1 for me. Working well in season one. For the fella struggling to sign players - add a few extra quid onto their signing on fee, and that of their agent. A few recommendations of potential hidden gems - Amr Gamal is a good Egyptian striker (not first choice but useful); Frederico Venancio is a quality central defender and easy to get if he's still at Setubal; Necip Uysal has been a great defensive midfielder for me; Charlie Taylor at Leeds is a quality left back; Denis Zakaria is another good central midfielder; and finally not really a secret but Thiago Maia is class.
  10. Nice choice mate. A refreshing change from all the Acuras!
  11. 2008 - 52 plate VW Polo 2009 - 59 plate Nissan Qashqai 2011 - 61 plate Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2014 - 1-year old Ford Escape (Kuga) in Canada 2016 - 10 plate BMW 3-series estate 2017 - 17 plate Porsche Macan S Seems like when my career is going well, the first thing I do is sink some cash into a car. When it's not, I sink what I have into a car.
  12. I think we only tend to have a day of mourning when a monarch dies.
  13. I've currently got a 2010 3-series, and it became a victim of Storm Doris. The ECU is housed in something that has a tiny drainage hole, and quite often they get clogged up. When we had all that rain mine filled up and the ECU got fried. Cost me a fortune to replace it. You'd think that it'd be a consideration when building a car that the computer bit doesn't get wet. Apparently not...
  14. The tabloids would've had an absolute field day with that!
  15. That's what I really wanted. Car seat, etc, blah, blah.
  16. I knew someone would pick me up on that! I just prefer it to the word "pushchair". Just makes me think of wheelchair.
