You know what really grinds my gears? The Gears Strike Back

Steve Power in my neck of the woods decides to sing along… Its unbearable so that’s why i stick to DJ Spotify

I got family Deezer but it annoys the hell out me that it appears to include all the family’s music when using flow. I suddenly from nice bit of metalica or green Day and next thing appears Mrs Crazys influence and Love is all around or some other wet x3 rubbish starts playing.

Slightly annoying in car or on a walk or run but when it’s blasting through the AV system whilst doing DIY really GMG

Yeah I had to pay for the female to have a seperate Spotify account so I my suggested playlist wouldn’t go from hardcore punk to steps

Nothing wrong with steps!

Seconded.

My boyfriend gets very upset over the ‘frequently played’ list. One in 15 roughly is a song he would choose!

When I am away with work he tries hard to increase the number of his songs on the list!

Acceptable if you’ve taken the, frankly insane, decision to share a single account but I’ve paid so each user has a separate user account to save my ears from such torture.

Either it’s a Deezer problem or the weirdos I have found live in the house during lockdown are messing with me. Maybe I should switch them to Spotify and create a clear boundary :thinking::joy:

Precisely the reason why I banned SWMBO’s mobile from being allowed to sync up to the car’s bluetooth.

The complexity (and price) around buying running shoes!

I got these last year (not at this discounted price I might add) pretty decent and no ankle/knee pain after 500-odd km!

I am just going to go for a decent brand, Brooks or New Balance, when sports direct reopen :wink:

Don’t forget that https://www.runnersneed.com/ are part of the Cotswold Group and will still give 20% discount if you’re a DofE leader

It’s a real shame that Cotswolds tend to be 20~30% more expensive than everyone else.

if they are, and the difference is more than the discount than you would get, don’t also forget they price-match…

Brooks is where I’m leaning towards

tbh, I’d rather have the ability to go and try a range of trainers / boots / etc on, rather than relying on buying everything online, and I’m happy to pay a bit more for this.

I also categorically refuse to give Mike Ashley any of my money (and so I won’t be buying my next bike from Evans)

That’s nice. Mine are all SEO companies and Digital Marketing gurus trying to lure me in with a pants “free” seminar or guide.

The best one I had started off saying “You don’t need to run ads to get clients”…

It was a sponsored post.
