    What makes you feel old?

    EP, Extended Play. I have some upstairs from the 60s, 7 inch, same size as a single and still played at 45rpm, the grooves are much tighter. Mine have just 2 tracks per side. I think the more 'modern' ones might have more tracks and and maybe play at 33rpm, but I don't have any of them.

    EV Tariffs Withdrawn

    Yep, the price cap only applies to the price cap tariff for each supplier. However it seems to be the one to compare to or complain about. Oh it might be cheap overnight but it costs more during the day than the price cap.....etc etc type scenarios, so still worth mentioning.

    MG5 2024 Charging Speeds

    Yes, but consider whether you actually need to spend that money. How often will you be charging on destination (7/11/22kW) EVSE 'chargers' ? How many of those will be of the 11/22kW variety? Your current cable is perfect for your home charging, assuming you are on single phase, and for probably...

    Two approaches to solar install. Thoughts appreciated!

    But surely, (don't call me Shirley) at the moment it is better, so at the moment do it. Your second part is an IF, so IF that happens in the future change to suit. Flexibility in approach. :)

    Have you noticed fuel prices going up

    I am in a similar quandary but only for reason 3, where not viable is currently outweighing the environment benefit. :( re the other 2, not bothered because 1 - not heard any horror stories re roof, but have heard many others good, can't let one story override all others. 2 - the kids would...

    What makes you feel old?

    Now we just say "hello" and the other end then says "Is that.......(insert name)" or is that just me ?

    Have you noticed fuel prices going up

    So if they can deliver 'tomorrow' am I right in thinking that would be from existing stock, so maybe a bit of profiteering going on ?? Or am I being a little simple in my thinking ?

    EV Tariffs Withdrawn

    For the price cap, these are the "average" UK rates before and after April. Average because of course they vary region to region. The price drop represents the amount of fixed costs that have been moved to general taxation and is nothing to do with the price of electricity. The price cap is set...

    Leeds Hotels with EV charging - help requested

    Great that you are sorted, and 2 more adventures to come. I never enjoy the task of looking for hotels and even holidays but usually enjoy it once I get there. Hopefully you won't need to charge in Leeds you should have enough electrons left to make it to the reception and charge at the second...

    Bluetooth won't stay off

    I forget about Bluetooth connections and simply unplug the dongle when I don't want to use AA, then plug it in when I do. Seems to work for everything normally as you would expect it to with it unplugged/plugged.

    Leeds Hotels with EV charging - help requested

    Sorry for second reply, but if you don't want to drive too far on Saturday night in an unfamiliar area then driving from Mirfield to Woolley edge is probably not what you want. Even though it is in the opposite direction it's only 3 and bit miles on a main road. It also has Pogo chargers to...

    Leeds Hotels with EV charging - help requested

    Good grief you are getting further and further away from anywhere at Woolley edge ! If you really want to stay closer to the ceremony then you could try the Crowne Plaza in Leeds itself, close(ish) to the M1 and it has parking and charging but not the cheapest. Easy journey then 5 to 10 minutes...
