Only had Amazon for watching Grand Tour and the wife like the free next day delivery on shopping.
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

Ring Subscription Increase
Just a bit of a heads up, if you have a yearly Ring subscription. If you cancel your subscription now or before the price increase on the 11th March and take out a new yearly subscription before the 11th it will renew at the current (old) subscription price If you have any subscription amount owing with cancelling your current plan early any amount will be credited back to you.
At least it will defer the price increase for another year

I just renewed my Ring subscription at the old price, £80 for a full premium service which covers multiple cameras (I have 3).
I’d no idea abut price increases, but I’m OK for another 12 months.

I'm unsure the increase affects the premium subscription at present just the basic, I wonder if Ring are testing the waters.
It seems to have been picked up by Martin Lewis, press, Ring Community Forum etc with alot current subscribers vowing they won't be renewing.
It does seem a greedy increase.

Daft as it sounds one of the plusses for Ring for me is ability of being able to hook the outdoor cameras to a solar panel rather than relying of just batteries.

I never bothered with the solar, but the rechargeable batteries last for a couple of months on a full charge so no probs really

Forgive my ignorance where Ring is concerned but is subscription compulsory?
I have Tapo cameras and while there is a fee if you use their cloud storage service but if you use a memory card you get all the same stuff but it’s free.
The only difference is every so often you have to wipe the memory card when it’s full.

You lose pretty much most of the cameras and app functionality without the subscription.
The outdoor cameras I find are pretty good but no SD card option so just cloud storage which is what you're subscribing too but at the new rate of 49 quid a year per camera its a cheek really.
As said earlier I do like the solar panel charging so the camera runs indefinately without having to charge the battery seperately. I don't know of any other outdoor cameras that can be powered by solar.
