I'm not equally annoyed about anything. If you read the para carefully I'm playing devil's adocate on this point.
with regard to 'plenty of people' with solar panels that is currently circa 5% of households. Hopefully many more in future

However, in making such glib posts you have some idea as to whether the person concerned is genuinely interested in being a contributor to the forum

I think having a certan amount of other posts on the forum before you can access the classifieds would be a cool idea

With regard to domestic charging crossing the public highway. There are inherent problems, some practical such as the obstructioons mentioned above and other with rights and licensing should there be a requirement to install domestic infrastructure.
Some might say it is unfair if some can charge domestically due to off street access whereas others can't. However, just like parking, if your house doesn't have off street capability you have no god given right to park outside your own home.
With regard to the domestic charging rate argument, and to play devil's advocate, does anyone have a personal petrol pump at their house with preferential rate fossil fuel? Why should there be a right just because the vehicle in question is electric?

In Derby City we are in the process of introducing more charging points. At the moment there is sucha variety available. Some, most even, are like petrol pumps and take up street space but they have fast charge capablity. Others are like those retractable bollards that raise and lower intothe ground but aren't fast charging at present.
When the latter have faster charge capablity hopefully widespread but discreet charging will be available.

Can you get it in carbon? How much does it weigh? Should I carry if doing a zone 2 effort?

If we ultimately conclude that all vulnerable road users can pack heat, I expect something that embraces tradition, possibly a muzzle loader, from Rapha

Yes he is. However, is it an immediate threat to the officers?Is he driving at them? I coudn't see that and the whole incident was circa 13 seconds. If you go down the shoot to stop a car for being a lethal weapon then you are really saying it is ok to shoot any driver who fails to stop for police and a car chase ensues with that driver driving recklessly

I would say that is the justification for the presence of armed officers but I'm having trouble reconciling the dude employing both hands to manouvre his car away with shooting him as being reaasonable force to prevent a crime

i had a firearms ticket back in the day when I was in GMP. You are taught to shoot to stop. Winging someone isn't an option and that makes sense if the trigger is being pulled for the correct reason.

Looks like Miclo has it

I had chronic prostatitis for a couple of years through the pandemic. Highly unpleasant and just grinds you down.

Anyone got any experience with FMB Pista cotton clinchers?

Ooh don't know, will find out

Cash transferred. thank you for your efforts

Politically a great Scottish statesman but all the handsy stuff ruined his rep

In other news the system appeared to run nicely yesterday. We had 22.5c rad temp and I almost did a Princess Margaret on my nads getting in the bath

That's correct

When campaigning on the doorstep for the election more often than not immigration was the number 1 issue. I put this down to it being forced fed to people through the Tory stop the boats/Rwanda/Bibby Stockholm bollox that was turbo charged in the right wing rags.
People had been brainwashed into thinking illegal immigration was the root cause of all problems as it distracted from the failings of Govt.

True stories from @Mr_Smyth and @gillies meanwhile the air source heat pump sets a PB...

Woodburners are fixies, they've had their time. air source heat pumps are gravel and I currently have that same "why?" in my head about them
