  1. I'm not saying I believed it either way. There'll always be another problem and another solution that doesn't really solve the problem.
  2. When that first lockdown finished do you not remember all the talk of how clear the sky/air was due to lack of flights? No, your right you don't need a tattoo but as far as I'm aware tattoos don't contribute to climate change?
  3. I'll have to have a Google of that, thanks 👍 I do remember James may having a hydrogen car on one of he's cars of the people programs, seems like the logical step away from fossils fuels. That said, I love a dirty diesel 😂
  4. Nice collection you've got there 👍 Got a very similar wasp tin although in no where near as nice of condition as yours.
  5. Because the car is a necessity yet it costs the best part of a days wage to fill up? Yet you can get on a plane and fly elsewhere for less which in I would guess the vast majority of cases is not a necessity. Sooner or later we will be in a position to use vehicles that are less economically viable that what we are using now because of all the hoo-ha around climate change yet while the luxury of a holiday abroad, is relatively cheap and unquestioned? To be honest I don't fly, so I cant say I check prices regularly but a quick Google shows cheap flights are out there. I'm looking forward to seeing how the electric tractors get on once there in the heavy clay soil etc.
  6. Sorry, I should have said abroad for a holiday. When you can fly to another country for less than it takes to fill your car up, somethings wrong don't you think? Edit to add, your need is no different to mine albeit slightly larger 😂, because of where I live and the commitments I have, I can't be without a car the same as to work you couldn't be without a plane. I read something the other day that suggested the average life span of a car was something like 13.9 years, so if your buying new now don't worry about the 2030 deadline. My mx5 is 30 now and still going strong, I plan on keeping that until I physically cannot put combustible fuel in it.
  7. Pay per mile was the suggestion the other day.
  8. https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/electric-car-volkswagen-e-golf-london-cornwall-drive-a9056226.html This is worth a read. I drove from Suffolk down to lizard point last summer, one quick pit stop and used well under half a tank of diesel despite the car being packed to the rafters. I also took my lad up to the royal armoury in Leeds, then to the big walking drag line near Swillington, then on to Chesterfield to see the church then and quick stop in Derby before heading back to Suffolk. That day I got 402 miles from half a tank of diesel. I'm not interested in any other sort of vehicle until they can produce a sensible milage from one charge. The motorist always bears the brunt of taxes. If they want to tax something, tax air fares to high heaven. No one needs to travel abroad do they? It's a luxury. Having a car shouldn't have to be but that's fast what it will become.

    😂 He's often got yildiz in like stonepark mentioned.

    Mallard barn have a nearly new silver pig but it's just under £1400.
  11. I was reading an article about the bringing forward of the ban on sale of new petrol and diesel motors earlier. Very short sighted. I fear we have been pushed way to far down the road of EV's to come back now though.
  12. I ended up in a+e earlier in the year in the middles of the night for a suspected appendicitis, which then went to suspected kidney stones, which frightened me more. Didn't get home from the hospital till gone 7 the next morning, they then rung me just before 9 to say they had a space free for a scan did I want it. Took it and luckily enough it wasn't kidney stones, although still concerning because they had no idea what caused the pain. Best of luck with it all 👍

    How much are you looking to spend?
  14. I'm guessing by your 91 me and you are the same age, while I must admit my old man is pretty handy and I have picked a fair but up from him alot of what I can do is self taught. Started on site at 15 and learnt pretty quick from there 😂 My missus on the other hand is 26 in December and genuinely baffles me sometimes with the things she comes out with.
  15. 😂 If your lucky it may even come in luminous green! I do agree there though, when sportsman replaced the woodwork they damaged the replacement was stunning, far better than what was on the gun originally.
  16. But you might get a free baseball cap??
  17. Now that would make a proper ditchman thread! "I'm mainly Flintstone-ing it"
  18. I read this earlier too, great stuff. Tough times ahead but it's about time we had someone like him on our side who's not afraid to speak the truth publicly.
  19. You've got enough already 🤣
  20. I'll stick some pictures on tomorrow, don't have any spares unfortunately but there are still plenty about.
  21. The Tigers were loaded with sg's as far as I know. The boxes came with a few different scenes on the back.
  22. One is for some sort of phone, that's the only peice in English, the other as I said is some sort as anime with a woman and a man in so that could be anything. Mine saves a few passwords, but only on things like PW, nothing with financial stuff etc.
  23. Yeah I had noticed that too, I do get the browning one occasionally also. They don't phase me as such, I'd quite like to know what the Japanese one is about though. Don't start rocking that boat 😂
