    I recall having an online conversation with someone a long time ago who had retired from BP. His words: "Windmills are just sitting there doing sweet FA cos the wind ain't blowing or they're clogged up with snow or summat. Barometric pressure tends to be high in the winter in Blighty. High...

    Rail square reviews

    @petermillard (Apologies for going off tangent to other readers.) I'm looking for a 700mm rail to fit the Scheppach/Workzone track saw, and was wondering if you had one for sale? I can't find one on the bay/Screwfix/Toolstation etc.

    Have you had your booster *** ?

    It's fairly pathetic that GOV are still using spreadsheets throughout this. Try downloading one of the datasets. My hi-spec computer can't open them. Relational databases have been around for at least two decades. Oracle/MySQL etc, and should have been used in GOV since at least 2010. As to...

    Dementia and me.

    I went through that with my own Mother. I hope this helps. She got trialled in a building for Mustard Gas during WW2 (as a RAF / WFA) Assistant Meteorologist. Testing a Gas Mask. She was also tasked with predicting a weather forecast for Hiroshima/Nagasaki. I might add more later regarding...

    Dementia and me.

    I feel for you. My wife's Uncle (in his 80's) was taken into hospital (from a care home), due to biological conditions (not Covid). When the Hospital were happy to discharge him, the care home didn't want him back (because of Covid). His wife had died a few years earlier and he had to sell...
