Depending on your part of the UK, please also add domestic charging of electric vehicles. A friend has recently amused us with the tale of living in a small village where so many people have Teslas that they had to organise a rota of who's turn it is to charge their car. Otherwise the local power grid is overwhelmed and the whole village is plunged into darkness. 1 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeithMacdonald Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I'm undecided whether to mention this to my wife (or not)... Quote Quote of the day: 25% of women in America are being treated for some form of mental illness. That means that 75% of them are running around untreated. 1 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Sidecar Racer Posted January 21 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 21 I will never help anyone again......EVER! I'm too kindhearted, or I'm too naive.... Yesterday it was so cold out that we took a man into our home out of the kindness of our hearts. We felt so sorry for him, poor thing was standing stiff and frozen out in the cold, but this morning he had just vanished. Not a word...not even a goodbye or a thank you for sheltering him. The last straw?!?! When I realized he had peed all over the floor! That's the “thank you” I get for being good to people?!?!?! Now I'm going to warn my friends to watch out for this man! He is heavy-set, wearing nothing but a scarf, he has a carrot-like nose, two black eyes, and his arms are stick skinny. Don't bring him into your house! What a mess he made on the floor. 1 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

westernfan Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 You learn something everyday. According to the Mail on Sunday I'm a ferroequinologist and so are the lot of you. Apparently it means a person who takes a recreational interest in trains. It makes sense when you break it down. Ferro = iron; equin(e) = horse. As Sir Michael would say, "Not a lot of people know that." (Or at least, I imagine they wouldn't.) 3 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
