Re: Electric Cars II - Not Silly!
When Tesla CEO Elon Musk fired scores of employees in the past few weeks, he also got rid of practically everybody on the Supercharger team, who were working on developing the electric car company's vast network of EV chargers — predictably ticking off Tesla owners. Now with Musk signaling he's shif...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
We wonder who buys all these huge TVs. You can cover a wall for €500-600. Surely not everyone lives in houses with immense living rooms ? Ours is 50m2 but walls either covered in pictures or huge windows. No room. Carrefour has them stacked ten deep, every make under the sun, many I've never heard of.

I've gone for a 43". We don't want room dominated by giant screen (although the huge screens are ludicrously cheap at Carrefour).

A very warm end to the day. Outdoors on the terrace that is. Indoors cool enough to need heat on tonight.
Ordered a new TV. The third one in 20 years, so not over extravagant.

Re: WTF is happening in the UK?
Sunak claims that in the General Election (whenever) the electorate will rally to the Tories. He's totally detached from reality.

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Morning all. It would appear we have sun today. Very welcome, as I'm trying to make the last of the logs in the stack suffice until autumn when I'll buy another trailer full. Spain always warm ? Bah, humbug.
How's the thatching going ?

His sudden death at ...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Bad news. I know it's obvious but some kind of therapy should be started immediately. Off to Paris for a conference next month. It's my least favourite city in Europe and travelling up on the ludicrously expensive TGV means exposing myself to the bed bugs and locals-infected, not to mention thieves,...

I see from a recent survey that the majority of Tory voters want Boris Johnson back as PM. Unbelievable.

7am, no sign of daylight, heavy rain and forecast indicates will continue for 48 hours non-stop. I'm hoping for 50% in the reservoirs by next week instead of 11%.

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Ex-A, I'm currently juggling Paris hotel reservation and train tickets for a conference next month. Hotel has doubled in price since last year. Receptionist is talking to the manager to get me a better rate. Then on to RENFEs stupid website for trains....
