    What ****ty pro-oil industry papers have you been reading? Take a proper look at the genuine stats. Hybrids are far more likely to go up in smoke than EVs.

    Leapmotor

    Have you also seen the YT videos on at least two high mileage MGs? One was a taxi with 300 odd thousand on the clock. We are soon to return our MG4 which is on a 3 year lease, and has done in excess of 30,000 fault-free miles. Leapmotor and MG both have an 8 year/ 100,000 mile battery...

    Replace window upper glass unit with plastic

    This is where I had a glass panel replaced with uPVC to run a flue through. I know it's not quite what you want to do, but shows it can be done.

    Verify Main bonding? Test method for Tags?

    You should get continuity of 0.05 Ohms or less between gas, oil or water pipes and the MET on 10mm² cable. But unless you can find the end of the PEB cables at the supply pipes, it will be impractical to isolate the rest of the earth installation to get an accurate reading .

    Abandoned Kids

    Watched the late news on the Beeb. Apparently, these boys are 4 and 5 and they left them, albeit with food and water, blindfold in woods, telling them it was a game, then they scarpered... Who does that to anybody, let alone kids?

    House price gravy train may have hit the buffers

    Here are my answers to this crazy list of stuff. I can't believe kids these days are all like this. Ours are certainly not. Netflix, Sky tv, Paramount tv, Disney TV. No. When home, they use our subscription to Netflix. I phones every time one is released. Two of my lads have old iPhones...
