    Go look on autotrader in the UK, there's tonnes around that price. Think they had to make room for the 2026 model. We did the same btw, have a 4 year old Labrador with hip displaci…

    Having interviewed with them for a SRE role I can definitely see how they are awful. The amount of technical debt is hilarious.

    So glad they called out Solovair as a replacement for Doc Martens. My first pair of DMs lasted me 7 Glastonbury Festivals - and if you'd ever been there you know the muddy ones are…
