A quick video on your phone that you can check would surely be better than it gnawing at your mind surely? You can test that the door is locked in the video as well. Videoing every door every morning / evening could be a faff tbh. There's no way I'd be able to follow such an invention up, but some contraption that links a door lock monitor to an app on your phone would be the business, a bit like Hive for your heating, but with a wee laser/light thing that would know if the brass bit is in or out. *If anyone electronically minded steals this excellent idea and makes any decent money from it, then remember to give your old pal HC here a reasonable cut of the profits and don't be a c**t, thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easter 2018 is the 8th April in Orthodox Christianity It's only this weekend in the Latin Tradition That was the pun. It's a bit niche and I didn't expect everyone to get it. Hopefully someone did.

Where does it all end though? Most routine tasks don't register when we do them so do we set up apps for everything? Then we'd need another app to manage these apps. I wonder how many times people check their door to discover it wasn't locked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 This could be equally posted in either the Nom Nom thread or the Business /corporate speak nonsense one but as it irritated the f**k out of me I'll post it here. I took my younger two for lunch in Amersham's latest eatery earlier. Nice place but had this on the menu: AKA Cheese burger with bacon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reminds me of the time (probably about 5 years ago) when my current wife claims to have “invented” windscreen wipers that came on automatically. She thought of it in the bath one night. incredibly forward thinking of her, considering our car at the time had an auto windscreen wiper function already on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side, they have put the £ sign before the number, so they haven't gone full arsehole yet. Was it served on a plate? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
