    Retired early and spend most of my time shooting vermin over a number of farms. Crows are a favourite around here. Also shooting deer and fox a few days a week keeps me off the streets.

  1. My brother in law has something of a collection of old bikes from europe. Here is his latest purchase with my father in law astride. No idea what it is.

    I like the full range of LR cars and would have another in a heartbeat if they worked.
  3. Animal activist's get in the way of real science 😁
  4. It didn't but I think the tories took it as an insult when they were allowed to leave so stopped talking as a result. Lots on here seemed to think Starmer would get nowhere.
  5. I am now thank you. 👍 I found this link which after a few repeat reads explains it fairly well. Given what is pointed out here I wonder why then the drive for these additives? Are we missing something? https://clear.ucdavis.edu/explainers/gwp-star-better-way-measuring-methane-and-how-it-impacts-global-temperatures
  6. This car my wife bought is restricted to about 110 mph.
  7. I have a lot of time for Yeo valley ethos. The guy that runs it is a big supporter of the locality. Did you see they purchased the bottom of Burrington gorge and then afforded the local bike shop a discount deal to keep them there. Exactly what we want from a local business. Their web site talks about tackling methane organically which must be a more sustainable way forward. In 2018, we granted Arla the rights to pack milk, butter and cheese in the UK, supplied by their British organic farmers. The partnership with Arla organic farmers means that we are well placed to continue to grow the organic milk market, while remaining a privately owned family business.
  8. Thanks for that. It's really interesting to see how the data is being used in farming. It's recognised that methane is a significant gas for driving climate change as described by NASA. Because the methane production from the UK is on a downward curve, using a 20 year measure, then it's inferred that there is no impact from UK emissions, which is also true. It's a bit of a false (disjunctive) claim don't you think? Accepting methane is a problem for warming, and the role played by animals but because the gas is declining in the area they are farmed suggesting its not a problem. It just shows how complex all this stuff is.
  9. What? Thats disgusting the guidelines need to be looked at. Just looking at the Russian spy's currently in court if guilty I doubt they will get anything like they deserve.
  10. 🤣 What was that? The only person I knew to have a 3 wheeler was my uncle. He always had bikes but a horse jumped on top of him when he was riding. After that a three wheeler was the only way forward.
  11. It's hard to ignore the obvious but as always I can understand why people want to. 😁 Not holding my breath either but it's another example of what can be achieved talking to your neighbours.
  12. What studies would they be? Methane is known to be many times more potent for global warming than co2. The UN (*) showed the gas to be 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20 year period. NOAA data from global sampling.
  13. More evidence as to why Brexit was bonkers. Just trying to find out UK stance on Syrian refugees. It looks like all applications may be on hold.
