    Yes Tramore. Its where you ask your phone to do things for you, like, "Phone Tramore at 8pm" etc.

    It is handy for reminders etc.

    So, for us Non-iPhone users, can we assume Siri is a mighty Hoops fan??

    Much to the amusement of fans of other clubs who I have urged to talk to their phones.

    Siri supports the underdog and is a Cordoba fan where I am. I guess it must be different in different countries?
    Do you have any other posters on this board outside the UK who could test this theory?

    Dozens. The question with that rabble is, can they afford an iPhone?

    What language do you use with siri?

    Might I suggest with all respect that it is your "very second" language.
    A different dialect completely, but let me just say it is warm today. Thank you.

    No offence intended but as in the UK, accents and wording do not translate directly.

    Rangercol, those of us who use or are forced to use Apple and its sub components have a feature on our I Phones that allows us to ask verbal questions. It is a questionable technology at best but allows endless hours of fun for those with less to do with their time.
    If you do not have an I phone then I would suggest that you avoid them like the plague. You are missing out on hours of tedious conversation..

    Ok...all I can say in Catalan is Barca, Barca!

    My google (I go to google for all my translation and weather needs) says it is only 16 degrees with showers in your vicinity...not looking good for the weekend either...stay off the beach?
