Sony went on a mission about 15-20 years ago at trying to produce the world’s best camera phone. Teamed up with Carl Zeiss I think.

Yeh - Id agree it simply has to be the Burn goal. It was an absolutely class goal too - even if you remove the context. I was on the half way line at wembley, middle tier so my view of it was perfect. It felt like the ball took half an hour to hit the net

My last phone was a Xiaomi 11 ultra - off Ebay from China - very nice - only issue was they'd rooted it to install the global rom so I couldn't use Google wallet and a couple of other apps. I lnow have an Honor v2 magic - I guess I'm the only fucker nerd enough to have a folding one.

How many years have you had that in reserve?

*cough*

I swear he was the inspiration for Mr Cholmondley-Warner. ”Take that, Johnny Foreigner!!”

Anything Ashington related comes up and I’m sharing this:

Kenneth Kendall sounds posher than the fuckin King

I’m assuming you’ve done us all a favour and reneged his registration on the back of this outlandish statement?

Agreed. It’s what it stood for. The last player to give us the lead at Wembley was Jackie Milburn.

My mate runs our local and their bottom end lager is Fosters and is £5.45 a pint!! He thinks I’m kidding when I say I’ll never drink it, I’d rather call it a night.

Came across this the other day though.. it’s prohibitively expensive and there’s doesn’t appear to be a lot of uk support but just fuckin look at it 😍 https://www.mi.com/uk/product/xiaomi-15-ultra/?srsltid=AfmBOor93TYb6runXp45VmdfZKP6kxuhx7jr475kUwunyNUWfwUVRg-L

We scored some crackers this season tbf but Burn’s takes it for me. The context of it all, setting us on our way in the final and the fact I went crackers celebrating it. Lovely

I don’t stand anywhere on Apple v android really. I’ve had this 13 pro for 3 years; its battery is going and it wouldn’t allow the latest update this week until I’d deleted a load of apps which weren’t fully downloaded anyway. So this is only going one way. I’d been looking at other phones for a few months and the Pixel 9 pro had caught my eye so when Gemmill said on here they were coming down in price a couple of weeks ago it was a no brainer . Think I might keep this as beck up, I’ve cancelled a couple of subscriptions this morning so I’m not really going to notice the £29 x 24 months. It’s a brilliant phone but I’ve had a lot of androids over the years and my work phone is android too. Hoping for a better battery and for it not to get so hot when being charged…and to muck around with Gemini AI etc..maybe draw some trains… I hear that’s popular ☺️

Fucking fuck. Fat fingers and cheap phone. I meant to say 👍

I'd also say it isn't just real ale drinkers who look down on Carling and Fosters. (I'm aware this is a joke btw).

How about this then?

God bless real ale bullshitters, if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have got a job with S&N in the 90s and probably would've had a poorer lifestyle/house. Right place, right time.

Good effort @RobinRobin, but that won't fit in the space.

Same ☺️🤝

My choice isn’t about what’s fashionable, it’s about what I find most intuitive. I pick up an iPhone and just get on with it. I pick up an Android and I’ve really got to think about what I’m doing. Appreciate some people are the other way around. The issue with both, and more so with Apple is they push you to update and it reaches the point where the processing power cannot keep up. I got an ‘X’ in 2018 and sweated it as much as I could and had to replace it 5 years later with the 15 Pro. I always go for the top end so it (in my head) lasts longer. Battery performance is the big issue and where R&I needs to be on its game. Most batteries are fucked within 4-5 years and unless a replacement is factory-fit, it’s anyone’s guess what you’ll get out of it’s replacement.
