Here's the Google Play link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freevpnintouch There are others, of course, and I have tried one or two of them, but I find Betternet is, well, Better! It does not restrict your bandwidth, doesn't bombard you with ads and is very quick to connect and very stable.

All you need is to have a data package with your provider, doesn't mean you have to use THEIR data though! We tried it at work on a phone that didn't have internet included as part of the package and naturally it didn't work. I hoped that I'd be able to do some surfing, read emails etc but was gobsmacked when I realised I could stream movies with it no problem at all! If you pay the £3.95 a month (half price for an annual subscription) you can set a country of origin from the app, which means you can access sites not allowed in your country, such as streaming US Netflix content. Try the free version first though and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Excuse me if I'm telling you something you already know, I'm not the quickest learner, but I've started using the Betternet app on my Android phone to access free internet. https://www.betternet.co/ It's been working fine. I can stream youtube, Netflix, ShowBox, CinemaBox, movies absolutely free without using up my precious 2Gb of monthly data, which I now reserve for the times I need a 4g connection, such as when I need to do a big download etc. Previously, I was always hitting the 2Gb cap before the month had ended, leaving me with the option of upgrading my package, at great expense, or bolting on a top-up, also at great expense, most of which was wasted when my plan reset every month. There's also an option with Betternet to pay a small fee monthly or yearly which gets rid of the ads (which aren't intrusive) and promises even better service, so I'm trying this out for a month or two to see what kind of service I get. So far, it's been wonderful.

This is the future!.......

Mine would be called Sally, the same as all my previous vehicles, after Sally Gunnall,......... not much to look at, but a great runner!

Ok then, maybe 'carnage' was the wrong word to use. However, why fit high quality GPS to cars that don't need it? My understanding is that, for an autonomous system to work, all vehicles must be singing from the same hymn sheet and that to disrupt any part of that system would throw it into confusion.

Interesting. So there's more than Vista out there?

You can imagine the carnage that could be caused by some nutter sitting on a motorway bridge with an eBay GPS spoofer!

Nothing makes me happier than seeing these buggers exposed for the frauds and monsters they are. I only hope she gets the full 10 years.

Yes, it's always 'I before E except after C' .............. as every SCIENTIST knows!

And still no discussion of the bloody great elephant in the room ... TTIP!

I've got a Bluetooth OBD II connector (eBay = cheap!) that communicates with the Torque Pro app on my mobile phone. Very nice setup. Apart from giving me all the usual fault codes and allowing me to reset them, it also displays a multitude of gauges and pages of data while driving.

Yes Malcolm, many folk I knew in my younger days used to swear by RedEx, and they'd probably know first-hand whether it worked or not as in those days we were always taking apart and re-assembling our cars, whereas these days most folk wouldn't recognise a piston if it hit them in the face.

We've been talking about driverless cars in the main here, but for the system to work properly ALL road vehicles will have to be autonomous and that raises the question of losses of tens of thousands of jobs in the transport industry. The reason why I state ALL vehicles will need to be autonomous is the fact that, for this system to be 100% reliable, vehicles will need to be in constant communication with each other to avoid collisions and congestion. Any vehicle without this type of communication will be the weakest link in the chain and will not be allowed to travel the same roads as the autonomous vehicles. Another point relates to so-called autonomous vehicles which still have driver controls so that a driver may be able to take control in an emergency. Well, the way I see it, there will no longer be any truly experienced drivers to do that if over 90% of their road-time is spent sitting in an autonomous vehicle doing anything but actual driving. This is borne out by the lack of skilled pilots these days due to heavy reliance on autopilot.

CAUTION!: LINK ALERT! It's things like this http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36339340 that is driving the driverless revolution. I doubt whether Uber's paramount concern is safety.

Well, you're all getting your knicks in a knot over nothing. Google, as always, have it sorted - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2016/05/19/google-patents-sticky-cars-to-save-pedestrians-hit-by-driverless/ Sorry about the link merc, but I think you'll enjoy Google's slution!

It'll be an 'Act of God' most probably. 'God' being Google, of course, as we all know! (*** Bows down to the Big G***).

Yeah, it's a real laugh calling it 'Market Day!'

Also, the car obviously uses collision avoidance algorithms, but what happens in the following scenario? ... Some kids run out in front of the car. The algorithm instantly decides it's too late to avoid a collision by braking alone and needs to swerve to avoid the children. Trouble is, swerving to the right would pile the car into a central reservation, putting its passengers in real danger of injury or death, while swerving to the left will hit a woman walking with a pushchair and 3 kids. What would the algorithm decide? On the other hand, what would you decide if you were the driver? I reckon I'd go right.

... 'Well take the bike off him then!'

Hmm... Not saying anyone is wrong, as my memory ain't what it used to be, but I always thought that NVR was in the old Rediffusion shop.

No wonder they are gunning for the SME's. It's definitely in the best interests of almost any SME to support Brexit. The sheer weight of ridiculous EU regulations are not only killing existing SME's, but are discouraging many from even starting up in the first place. Large corporations, on the other hand, are laughing all the way to the bank, knowing that their smaller competitors are being annihilated in this way.

A British aid charity is warning that by 2060 more than a billion people worldwide will live in cities at risk of catastrophic flooding as a result of climate change. A study by Christian Aid says the US, China and India are among the countries most threatened. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-36299541 How unfortunate then that the three countries listed as the 'most threatened' are amongst the top carbon emitting countries in the world. Rough justice?

Glad you're back in Malcolm. Good luck.
