    [Misc] Are your electricity bills too high? Get ready for a real WTF moment.......

    Not really news. It is widely known and recognised that the national grid is not fit for now, let alone the future. But of course this requires enormous investment that will not win votes and we never have serious politicians that will make the ‘difficult decisions’ (one of my most despised...

    [Football] "He was eating a sandwich, while talking to a Premier League manager" - oh the humanity.

    Glad you posted this, when I read about sandwichgate I thought ‘what a totally arrogant tw##t! Then I reflected…. There was me thinking there were signs of recognising in the game that refs need more respect and support and then one completely blows it (at EPL level would you believe?!) by...

    [Albion] Stop the catastrophizing right now

    Credit to Luton and we were awful. Consequentially now more likely to keep the most exciting, fun and attacking coach in our history. So it’s no catastrophising from me! Now if he could coach defending and corners too…..

    [Albion] Facundo Buonanotte **On Loan To Leicester 10/08/24**

    I really wasn't sure about him but its great to see a young player develop the way he is. Getting better every game

    I’ve never thought about the possibility that we have damaged the planet so much that it won’t recover with out our help. You might be right in the short term but as the planet thinks in terms of millions of years I think your apocalyptic vision will be only a short term blip. Whilst I don’t...

    And then we can go and ruin another planet for our own benefit.

    Good topic for a genuine debate! Human extinction might be tragic for humans but would be a relief for the planet. We have not contributed anything positive but have caused the extinction of endless species that would have otherwise thrived and we have even managed to alter the planet's...

    Ok, please explain why it would “be tragic for the planet, and possibly the universe, if we ceased to exist” ?

    I wasn't aware that nano paste had moved on from the research stages to being used on a commercial scale in this way. Really interesting, thank you, and I will try and find out more as to what's happening down your way

    You may well be right, my knowledge of physics is below yours. My analogy to computers is from my own experience. 8 years ago we installed a battery set up to store a small level of solar output. It tookd up a whole ships container. The same amount of storage would now take up less than a...

    If we are honest, its never about 'saving the planet' is it? We mean saving the human race. Life has gone through numerous extinctions but the 'planet' has never been under threat. Perhaps if we all admitted this truth we might be a little more focused. I am not advocating human wipe out by...

    It’s the combined weight of panels and the supporting framework. I’ve just worked on a small farm project where the roofs were not strong enough. The cost of reinforcement made the project totally unviable. It now has to go on the ground and consequently needs planning consent. Despite the main...

    The investment, globally, into battery development is in the $billions and there is little doubt now that the physics and other issues (eg scale) will be resolved. Not a dissimilar journey to that of computer development from massive house size installations to micro PCS. Hydrogen is...

    The Yes battery storage is now developing very fast and in use. There is a little way to go before its as commercially viable as needed for large scale commercial use and it is the holy grail for renewables. Very much on the way though. Agree re roofs, though these will never achieve the large...
