Fewer sparks between Le Pen and Macron than 5 years ago .. Mme Le Pen was much better informed this time. Not losing her temper was a shrewd move. Although she has modified her proposals it would appear her underlying text remains the same which Macron aimed to reveal. Macron still appeared overly arrogant, but then he always been so.
I would have enjoyed a Macron versus Mélanchon debate more.

For any betting folk out there who fancy MLP's chances on Sunday, she is 12 to 1 against. EM is 7 to 1 on. The bookies have decided.

I have not had a TV to watch for the last 3 months or more and have not missed it a tiny bit, the debate was the first program that I regret not being able to have watched.

Terrible connection where I am, you might get sound for a few seconds but with frozen video, even the keyboard and mouse locks up, I have had to reboot the computer 3 times already plus the phone giving the hotspot in the last hour.

Nothing; as it is not connected to anything.If you meant "zipping" thru battery, then yes, it does that when in hotspot mode.The best way to save data is to turn off images/videos in your web browser. Some browsers have an option for this already built in, some will need an extension. I use ImageBlock on firefox (extension).

Never even got anywhere close to the monthly data limit, hotspot on all the time except it keeps turning off when it loses the signal, the speed I get is so slow that I cannot use any significant data, certainly not watching videos.
I can connect to the wi-fi of my friends whose land I am staying on, trouble is that is with Free as well so they have just as many problems, their 4G reciever box has its ariels high on the house higher up the hill than the hollow that I am in, I dont like to use theirs as I will just slow down their internet use.
I seem to have a good 4G signal at the new property so things should improve when the caravan and I make the move.
I have 4G at my principal residence but it keeps defaulting to the stronger Orange 3G transmitter which is bridé to 200mbit/sec so as slow as treacle, not really a problem as I have ADSL & wifi.
The phone only really comes into its own as a hotspot when I am in the UK.
