  • A Christmas Story - the older motorist 24 Dec 2009 (Forum)
    The silver A class had just moved onto the chemist`s forecourt and as I reversed into position beside him, I noticed him pause as he opened his door and then smile slightly as we made eye contact on getting out of our vehicles. I would place him in his late 80`s - moving slowly into the chemist, white faced and without much colour in his lips, let alone face.
  • Trade £340 quote - to £3 triumph of DIY Lock 24 Apr 2009 (Forum)
    Then a quote from a Fiat dealer - £340 to fit new locks. because Fiat don`t supply single locks and you have to buy a `lock set`. Then there`s labour - and this is cheap, up North labour.

  • Renewable Energy and Cars. feeble renewable... 25 Jun 2008 (Forum)
    (Excluding the cost of the equipment) selling spare to the grid to compensate for windless periods? Renewable doesn`t work in other ways too. I was looking at torches today. Hand cranked one`s can get twenty minutes or so if you wind the handle like mad and get 3 or so dim LEDS. Or you can buy a 20 LED (3Dcells) torch that will last for 100 hours full on. (OK if there`s a nuclear winter and so on that`s different, but then there would be other issues beyond hand cranking a feeble torch) It all just seems to highlight the actual trivial power outputs of this sort of generation and solar equipment.
