    Bluetooth Speakers

    Being a complete novice to bluetooth I've done a bit of research and as far as I can tell for the same price as a bluetooth speaker you can buy a 'boombox' with a lot more features, better sound quality and also has bluetooth connectivity. Why all boomboxes and radios don't also have bluetooth...

    I feel guilty

    There are far too many interruptions to the league schedule, it does my head in. Football should be a once a week experience at a regular time. Right now it's like that Donovan song: "First there is a league game then there is no league game then there is".

    What is it about Coventry?

    The reaction I get, particularly from Londoners/Southerners is "Coventry? 'Red Robbo', car workers on £600 a week, always on strike, always moaning about the Blitz and that bloody cathedral".

    Westworld

    I'd be interested to know from someone who hasn't watched the entire series whether the last episode works as a standalone movie because I got the impression it was made first as a pilot and then developed into a series later when it was picked up by HBO.

    Westworld

    I don't think I'm giving too much away by revealing that the next season will feature 'Samurai World'? Hopefully there will be lots of severed limbs and beheadings. A few geisha-girl orgies won't hurt either. :) Sadly we'll have to wait until 2018 to see it.:(

    What is it about Coventry?

    A city-wide municipal high-speed wifi network of the kind many Scandinavian cities have would be a good start but it isn't going to happen as there are too many vested interests involved.

    Westworld

    Westworld fans might want to avoid the internet completely tomorrow until they've watched the finalé as I can guarantee that some website or other will reveal the ending in a huge headline that you simply can't ignore. Then of course there are the emails from friends who've already seen it with...

    Westworld

    Yes and Game of Thrones even though the original doesn't have them and even though subscribers have paid an extra premium to watch it.

    Mistaken song lyrics

    Was listening to Brenda Lee's "Rockin' around the Christmas Tree" this afternoon and there's a line which should be: "Later we'll have some pumpkin pie" but because of her problem with adenoids it sounds like something very different.

    "Westworld's season finale will air at the same time in the UK and the US" It won't be long! ;)

    Film Thread 2016

    It wasn't quite as tedious as Batman v Superman but they didn't for example edit out a flashback sequence from the theatrical cut so one scene is shown twice. Jared Loto seems to be compensating for the fact that none of the other cast can act at all by wildly overacting in every scene. The...

    It was probably trying to spare me two hours of unrelenting stupidity. :(

    Location please.....

    Suttons & Jones sold Philips electrical appliances Houch, hence the sign. Vogue was a restaurant, later renamed the Rex Restaurant. The bit on the corner with Palmer Lane was an ice cream kiosk at one time. "Alice Middleton" (ladies underwear). :)

    Location please.....

    That was only a temporary Owen Owen store Houch, to replace the bombed out building in the centre of the photograph. They occupied several other buildings in Trinity Street and New Buildings as well while they waited for the new store to be built. :)

    Remote control failed just as I sat down to watch "Suicide Squad - Extended Edition". Started working again when it was too late to watch anything loud. :arghh:
