  1. He looks like a proper weirdo! Our local council has lots that look the same way, not many conservatives left here
  2. I see you are sorted now. But for future reference try rimmerbros.co.uk they have nearly every part ever made for these old land rovers. Unless you have tried them of course
  3. Take it to. Honda dealer let them fix it. Will cost a few quid but stop you going mad……
  4. My wife does the same so yes it’s bollocks however that is the amount they are “supposed” to do. That’s why I get slightly annoyed when people complain about the pensions and holidays etc. Its not a job to do for the money or the holidays. and yes I think they should get an pay rise of about 15% to get back to somewhere like where they would have been had there not been years of either noting or 1%
  5. That’s really good no doubt. We could certainly do better with our housing stock. we don’t however have geothermal here at least not in the same sense they do up there.(though I could be wrong on that! Geothermal makes me think of hot springs in Iceland and the like) so if it as I’m imagining then your bill will be less as the water is hot/warm to begin with? they learnt the lessons long ago out of need more than anything else I suppose
  6. What we do here in the UK won’t make any difference other than make us feel better. I agree it needs to be done but the timeframe is too short and we need The whole world to do it. I’m also not convinced it would change much anyway. But it would be worth a try if it was worldwide
  7. Who is it the right thing to do for? Not us that’s a fact. Not unless we build 25 big nuclear reactors. Yes we can have wind and solar but nuclear has the advantage that it always works. to add to that why don’t we build massive solar plants on say the Sahara? it would conceivably power Africa Europe the world? I’ve no idea how much power it would create never mind all the employment and money going into Africa to build and sell the energy
  8. Yes it is I do however wonder why the ships can’t have sails to use the wind to help use less fuel. probably to do with the dock cranes as much as anything else?
  9. The mill itself? No idea what kind of money it was but it wants replacing at some point.
  10. I know all about the pay scales. Not a game to be starting now with the pension being changed. That and the pay scales being made very difficult to progress through. At least comparatively to 20 years ago. Also worth about £10k less than they should be due to years of no pay rise or 1%
  11. Teachers are 190 days a year or thereabouts
  12. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60557073 even the meerkat adverts have been cancelled…..
