Still going after 40 years, bet that orange monstrosity won't be.

Nor me, I was wearing my away shirt

Bloody festival of speed, traffic queing outside my house this morning. Years ago I was involved in the GreenPower Electric challenge. Very odd watching a silent race around the circuit, but the youngsters competing enjoyed it.

In my car, when you first depress the brake or lift of the accelerator it uses the regenerative braking system just like an EV. I think I drive as you describe because I like seeing the battery charge light getting greener (might be blue, I'm a little colour blind). Perhaps, these technologies...

I think your argument is flawed. Regenerative braking is still braking and results in forces at the tyre/road interface. These forces will be higher in an EV due to the higher mass, Most of the force is viscous friction, it doesn't matter whether the brakes are used or the transmission, the...

Anyone from Mesopotamia Dagan?

Banning the export of live animals.

That's what I did and I still have it. I say to anyone silly enough to get in it that as I've had it over 30 years my driving must be really good as I've not had an accident and luck doesn't last this long, it must be skill :whistle:. They're the same on bicycles too

I have recently found this. It's like a cross between Midsommer Murders and Professor T. I like it, it's not challenging to watch and quite sweet 😇

I've only been having two coffees a day for a few years, sleep seems to have improved from having many more per day. In some of my work on microvascular health, we have to advise volunteers not to drink coffee beforehand in case it confounds the study. A couple of cups of coffee seems to...

I use lifelog on my phone sometimes to record walks we go on and another app that I can't remember the name of and can't find my phone at present. Towards the upper age limit if you hadn't guessed.

It just shows how under-valued bees are, even by those in the know. I could have offered you a swarm the other day, but they've now departed the yew tree. Be interetsing to read how you get on.

Especially as this isn't a lot of money. Should have gone large

Back to lichens. I'm sure I heard this on the radio recently: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06k9sz1

I can't disagree with you on any of this. But, maybe future generation might see it differently. As I said, I just like the anarchy and reaction. It's a little like National Lampoons completely pointless and futile gesture.

As long as it isn't lichen sclerosus 🤯 Of course, you are right, no need to cause unneccessary harm. I think I just like the anarchy in the JSO campaigns, it certainly shakes people up.

I think the sulphur used in fuels will have caused more harm to the lichen, and over a longer time period.

I've been trying to make my garden more bee friendly. These turned up today:

Took this in March, only just noticed it:
