To those on the right who want to go back to ye olde days

✅

A noisy place to work today...

But the theatre will be better

After watching the news at the weekend,

I do know that my few gallons of savings is nothing

But if we all have that mindset to be efficient, make the best use of resources every day, then we can be better.

Off to 2 primary schools today and make their systems better than they were yesterday.

👍

Surely it depends

My average day includes up to 30 miles of cycling/3 hrs on a train/3 miles walking... Each way

I usually leave home at 0530, get home 1830, with a possible further few hours writing reports.

Different sites most days, anywhere below Derby

I get travel expenses back but not time

What you mean the trickle down economy didn't make us all rich

😱😱😱😱

As found in a back area of a school in Bournemouth today...

Apparently it used to be the basement of a court house, and this was where they boiled down bits of body.

Mr Loophole causing ragebait...

Surely not..

Probably only annoyed he can't get paid to get cyclists off as well

One has a reputation

Well it is #worldbookday
So surely everyone dresses up in one of the favourite book characters to go to work....

All together now

Todays #dailypicturegame word is TOWER

Tomorrows word is ANIMAL

From UWL tower at the start of the M4 across London

With the news on this morning...

I felt a stormtrooper would not be right...
But I did feel we needed to bring back a smile from the age of the gloom

So just the 20 miles around Southampton

Blooming cyclists

Everyday, then they get grumpy when you point out who has prority

Assuming you have been given a bin 🤦

Now maybe you can actually go back to the recycling and recycle the many many items which say recyclable but you do not touch 🤦

A bug bear with much infrastructure

They ticked the box by adding a wider pavement and extra paint

Yet managed to annoy cyclists as they are just awful

And also annoy those in vehicles

The one near me cost £300k for a few hundred yards of this rubbish

Maybe they should ask those who cycle 🤷

Really pleased

Should have been carried out many moons ago

Another day of local sites ....

So just the 15 mile cycle to work 👍

#Fatmanridesagain

Good morning

My circular cup has been on my bicycle in one way or another for 8 years, doesn't leak, 'plastic' keeps hot coffee for an hour, made from recycled products

I am not arguing anything

That all WLTP are forced and not real is not new information

That driving them as they should be makes them better is not new information

That people are quick to point fingers of blame is not new information

What is sad is the constant black/white culture

How is your Monday?

I have a man cold... trust me don't phone me today...

But I did get to site 1.5hrs early so I can put a bit more electricals into the car.

Sadly the Nero has a power cut so no coffee or croissant 😕

#ev

Why are you again talking to me as if I am an anti EV?

My neighbours Nissan Leaf does fewer miles than my PHEV in EV mode

As an engineer I don't carry 1 screwdriver, I carry a selection, I do not moan at the terminal screwdriver for not being a pozidrive. You choose the right tool for the job

With this being a £5m Heat Pump system I work on which uses solar and GSHP

Currently in the process of having a sustainably sourced and built wooden bike once the 3st of tools can be carried.

So learn not to talk DOWN to everyone

It so puts off people, who may have agreed with you before

Oh and yes as a BMS engineer who saves and adjusts energy every day

So far £25m over 15 years
Uses bike/train/foot rather than 60,000 miles a year

Feel free to continue your mansplaining as if nobody else actually knows anything

If you can find me an EV which can
1. Cost less than £550 a month
2. To do 25,000 miles a year
3. Carry 4 adults and their tools
Or 8 tread set of steps internally
4. Be easy to travel a 600 mile day
5. Be cheaper to fuel than petrol/diesel

I have been looking 10 years now, and driven many

And again as I have said I like 40% cannot charge at home

Nor like the 500% cost increase for using a public charger

Odd that you are arguing more about PHEV than seeing they are better than diesel, or petrol

Odd to that you still ignore that all WLTP results are not accurate

40% cannot charge from home in the UK
My current PHEV has 70 mile EV range
Even with no charge at 60mpg it is as good as a standard self charging hybrid.

Most of my journeys are by cycle/train

Thus PHEV fits the middle ground
