So So do I Flecc. And I occasionally suffer a stammer. Apparently.

Says someone enjoying all the freedoms of Western culture and governance.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-22278037 Some might disagree Flecc.

Being pedantic, thousands is still hundreds of thousands,but accept the point. And neither of us has an answer. You raised issue about plight of females in Afghanistan yet also suggest interference is wrong. Perhaps female Afgans should raise issue with ECJ to discuss.

It's appalling but not sure what we can do about it. Can't invade place, that has been proven time and time again. I, m sure the trillions spent could have been used more effectively tho, by a more subtle approach but who knows. Should we merely stand by whilst other countries go about their...

And eating pigs, cows, chickens in their thousands but one Lama??? World has gone mad.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-58409613.amp How can anybody celebrate this whilst people who wanted out (including British Nationals) are still stuck there. On news reports tonight of a 7 month old baby not allowed out but parents were... Then 150 Greyhounds and such sat in plane...

And again totally OT. Thought Lewis Hamilton gave demeanour of a beaten, forlorn lonely individual after qualy yesterday. Wasn't just his disappointment at his performance, he, s been there before lots of times. Time Lewis left all the mega rich, mega privileged white boys to race and play their...

Well, I asked for that didn't I..

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9934377/Alert-lenses-make-BLIND-Patients-warned-implants-damage-corneas.html I know its not IOL replacement (cataract op) but it's still offered by private clinics. I was warned about this op 12 years ago by a consultant,yet it has continued to be...

Polly Got a friend who was equally adamant as you Covid was all BS. He denied its existence and refused jab. He was 56 and enjoyed excellent health. He joined a group of anti vaxers online. About 4 weeks ago he tested positive for covid. A week later he was in hospital and 5 days later on...

Doesn't that contradict your previous argument suggesting under 10% of population had been affected. (I think originally you said only 3% had, Danidl pointed out 10% had had disease) Can't see how 10% having better resistance could affect overall figures, unless other things are also coming into...

And there wouldn't be the difference in performance most would assume.. The old (now stopped) Group B rally cars were unbelievably quick and even in dry, with benefit of 4wd would have given F1 cars of the day (mid 80s) a run for their money on twisty tracks. 30 years development for wet weather...

And completely off topic. Qualifying stopped in Belgium. Its raining too much. Just proves how inappropriate F1 cars are. It's like closing M1 because it's raining. If track is too slippy build a car that copes better, would probably help safety more than anything else. Rally cars never stop...

The better mathematician you are the more scope to make numbers say what you want. I, ve agreed with flecc's last post, which I do in principal but don't think it's as simple as saying London situation proves vaccination hasn't accounted for their situation. Vaccination must have helped both...

Yes, firmly tongue in cheek.... But staying as far away as possible from crowds, gatherings, communal events hardly affects most of us... Yes, I, ve missed out (tongue in cheek again) on Camper Calling (music festival for camper vans at Ragley Hall), and to be honest would still have attended...

Yes, you are correct Danidl, consequently government are introducing a new distance of 2.4km for social distancing, which should see the original realistic time(15 mins) still been a safe one.. In exceptional circumstances 1.2km for 10 mins should be OK.

Yep, I, ll take some and post them...

Yep, that actually works well.. Ended up with a cordless drill motor and speed controller magnetic Reed switch, ebike battery all housed in an extended (bought) housing. (extended with sewerage pipe).. I, d forgotten that... Should have bought one. (had to weight it with diving weights, I, d...

I know what you mean. Thing is though over years I, ve wasted hours and hours in garage trying to compete with Ford, Haibike, Starboard and others. In many respects we just can't. If you enjoy it, great but generally the output from garages rarely competes with big manufacturers on nearly all...
