Well lights are less of an issue these days, with LED lighting, and "sure" as in not sure, but you suspect it to be the case.

Expensive solution! I have used roofing battens before.

Indeed. Like the bottles of wine that become so expensive that no one would ever drink them - at which point they should logically become worthless...

Love the flooring!

I've seen some amazing chopping boards over the years, but do they get used, or hung on the wall? I made a spice storage box with a lid that doubled as a chopping board for my eldest stepdaughter about 10 years ago, as it made my back hurt to watch her stooping over standard height countertops...

Why is electricity so expensive? I can understand why gas prices went up, because of Mr Putin, and other reasons, but we don't import that much electricity, and roughly half(?) of our electricity generation is wind+solar+nuclear. So why is electricity still three or four times the price of gas...

Why does this charging cable thing keep cropping up? There are, as far as I know, fast charge outlets, that have a tethered cable which conforms to the ChaDeMo(sp?) standard, and a slow/medium charge standard socket that accepts a cable that can have two possible terminations at the vehicle end...

Difficult to hold the drill on the left on my rubbish Parkside grinder/belt sander combo, but using a cordless drill in reverse would fix that.

I understood wooden chopping boards to be fairly "bug" resistant, better than plastic, depending on whom you believe. More prone to spontaneous combustion, of course.

I thought he was fairly blunt...

That's not evidence, and from figures I've seen it's nonsense. Just more anti EV conspiracy.

Was it the epicyclic speed reducer, where you had to hang on to the body of the thing with your other hand? My dad had a Wolf, and a Picador circular saw attachment. Thing there was an orbital sander too...

Show me a mobile phone that runs on AA or AAA form factor cells, and I'll show you a BT Freeway.

I'm sure you think that's very amusing, as I believe you've used it twice now, but since pretty much all the energy we use on this planet, including fossil fuels, has its source in that big bright yellow thing 93,000,000 miles away, external combustion has been on the menu, transport-wise, for...

I am curious as to how you can state "definitely". What's your evidence? I agree that diesel is hard to ignite at ambient temperature and pressure, but a 12v circuit could provide the trigger, surely? Isn't that how the diesel heaters discussed at length in another thread work?

To be fair, the connectors are pretty much standardized, as far as I know. Can't speak for payments or apps.

I don't think the problematical concrete in schools is particularly new.

Maybe because the UK market is too small to justify special models. Why didn't Jacob Rees Mogg foresee this?

Of course now post-Brexit we'll have to have imperial chargers for batteries, a dozen cubits of your finest electricity, my good man, and check the windscreen washer levels while you're at it!

Maybe you missed the thrust of my reply. Changing battery packs, however feasible or otherwise, would not be a hazard for pacemaker users.
