6 Gazanias (Pack) from Sainsbury's. Good sized plants. I've got 2 that made it through the winter and are just beginning to flower so these are to top up the trough that they're in.

SWMBO caught me in a good mood, 2 Windows 11 Acer laptops, now she wants to know how to use it!
Then I got myself a new smart phone, Moto G22 with a second Moto for my wife.

If you are brave you can swap it out for a Sync3, but it does involve a lot of work and pulling the dashboard apart.


My Kuga has Sync3 and I love plugging my Androind phone in to it and using Google maps in satellite view

We had a chime pro, absolute pants. It wouldn't stay connected to the WiFi which was a common fault at the time. Replaced it with an echo dot which is much more useful.

I recommend giving Waze a go, it's owned by Google but has better features, better speed camera notifications better traffic notification including pot holes and cars stopped on the road.

If you really want satellite view over features you maybe better off with Google Maps as Waze doesn't have that.

Second for Waze - it also has real-time feedback from users/drivers (I was asked yesterday as I went through some roadworks (but without any delay) if the roadworks were still there).
