It was the latest in a series of little niggles I have found with Google Assistant, which I really wanted to like but seems to have too many glitches.

And the voice responses are much faster from Alexa. Sorry Google -- sort your s**t out and I might come back, but in the mean time Alexa has stolen your crown.
