One of the best yet 😂 classic

May the lords of electric be praised 🙏

Ooh arr excellent but it would look better with a newer Berlingo please 🤣🤣

A week or so back I was told all about how useless folk were finding ev’s by someone who had the new improved and far superior tech. He and his wife each had hybrid cars and they were keen to change to a hydrogen boiler for home heating asap. His hybrid lasted all month on £30 worth of petrol...

Well I’m outstanding in my field !

How awfully accurate 🤣

Well well they now use planet friendly smoke materials apparently- I fervently hope so ‘cos they used an awful lot of it on Friday and Saturday almost over a huge crowd in Ayr.

A planning masterpiece, not

The guy who made the original film has done that - I received a copy second hand from a mutual friend. Check out u tube under Ayr Air show for last weekend to see this and other brilliant film clips.

Interestingly i oil not nothing on the Tesla unit that mentioned switching off. All it had was a tiny screen for the tap and pay which I did with my phone and subsequently again with the phone in an attempt to end the charge. I’ll go back that way for a return fight another day. I’ve used the...

The video clip that I froze that still from is VERY dramatic. How can I share that on here ??

OK problem solved - I tried to start the car and of course couldn’t because it was plugged in. But trying to open / shut the car seemed to force an action to release the plug. All good now. I didn’t send the above before I drove off home. When I arrived home I went straight to bed and only saw...

Hey guys I’m on a Tesla charger in Larkhall just now. I’ve had enough power - how do I stop the charge. It started with my phone / card.

But - does she laugh with us - or at us, as a friend once said ? 🤪😱

Great pictures 👍

Best picture from yesterday’s Red Arrows display in Ayr where the next aircraft are intended to be built. These current jets retire soon and the replacements are to be assembled here.

Pictures from the first day of the air show at the Ayr show.

Rather have a roll with cheese 🤪

Are you suggesting a common denominator here 🙄

Brilliant, have you got the question to the next answer ?

I think cheese is stored all over some stores 😉

But it’s so invigorating and joyful. You really ought to join us 🤩

I’ll go along and take a picture when it’s dark and they’re illuminated from the inside with their colour changing lamps. Quite eerie but interesting. I’m off through to the Ayr Air show today which is promising to be pretty spectacular. Please all think beautiful weather thoughts today and...

If that how you’re feline I suppose me little furball I’m sure I can change. How are you on hamsters ?

Oooohhh😃

Don’t even know the game. Don’t we get the standard nine lives then ?

MeeeyOww

How about a real one like a Cervil. Probably doesn’t make a good house cat. So I’ll settle for a Bengal (cat not tiger 🤣)

Defo cats.

Cats every time 👍

Brilliant- do you have a rodent dropping version ?🤣

Doh … and here was me busy designing a coal fired beam engine steam driven dynamo system - I was almost there, I even had plans for a wooden handled manual metal scoop device for fuel handling and everything 🙃

Not bad, well done, but how’re you gonna power up the internal multi coloured illuminations now then ??? 😂 It’s all a bit transparent I reckon 🤣

Yeah it smacks of backtracking a wee bit. There used to be a ferry to the continent from Rosyth on the opposite bank of the river Forth from me. There’s still boats from Newcastle and Hull I believe. The whole thing is just a pipe dream and was only contemplated a couple of days ago. So I’m...

Don’t see the attraction m’self I rather liked the idea, for this forum, of the representation of an electric horse juxtaposed on an inaugural electric car meet up…… ……..he said quickly, wishing HE’d actually noticed the damned pylon as he hit the button 😉

The Kelpies and their attendant Swan family just prior to meeting up with Gomev and his lovely lady wife.

Grand meet up at the Kelpies.

I’m actually at the Kelpies for my walk. There’s a light shower just now but not too bad.

I always thought of it like that too. It must be soul destroying otherwise. Mind you more than half my time was behind the wheel driving between jobs and I’ve always enjoyed driving.

Aye but add on 400from me to the tunnel. But I’m still considering the whole trip.

All too quickly 🤩

Aye and they’ll all no doubt want jam on it 😂

Great stuff. I’ve been invited to Stavanger, Norway and looking at the possibilities of driving but it’s perhaps more sensible flying or going elsewhere a bit closer 🤪.

I’ve just been measuring up and reckon that if I fold all four passenger seats flat and load the crumpets to the ceiling it ought to be possible to reach the gites easily with twenty remaining goodies and one rather sick bloated driver 🥵

Don’t those children appreciate free cake then ?

And here was ignorant me blithely taking it all on board and just assuming it maybe had an extra strong lamp 🙄

Grand invitation sir thank you. I particularly liked the bit about bringing a few crumpets by way of payment 🤩

Exemption pass granted 🤩

OK that confirms a general call up for KELPIES KOFFEE then 👍 2:30 pm Wednesday 3rd September. Looks like rain will be the order of the day so be prepared for that, there is a walk from the car parks.

Yawn …………. Checked with Waze and e-routes in the My Citroen app. It’s about 70 miles to Ayr. Did a new adventure. Charged the Berlingo to 100%. Drove motorways M9, M876, M80, M73, M74, M77 to Tesco’s at Silverburn, Glasgow. Picked up lamb steaks and broccoli for dinner. Re- entered M77 to about...

Let them ‘lectrons roll 10 / 4 oh no sorry that was an old topic 🤩

So that’s a Forum coffee meet at the Kelpies then 👍 😂 (sorry Mrs Gomev - only joking)

Nothing at all then really 🙄

What’s football ??

The ryobi stuff is good.
