    Physiological effects of magnetic fields

    One of my daughters is a PhD in computational physics, she did explain very simply to me all about this. I found the best way to deal with it all is to have a very good source of whisky (I do like Glenlivet, I smell the Spey) nearby and somewhere to lie down, drink yourself silly and you will...

    The great big insurance rip off

    I am afraid with LV its back to the old rip off for the unwary. I was not happy with the increase so just out of curiosity re applied online and price dropped to the same as last year. I accepted that quote and called them. The excuse was that they had installed a new system that calculated...

    Good Tyres recommendations

    All season I think are the way to go. The Michelin cross cimate 2 or Continental all season contact 2 are the best and are fully winter (snow) and summer tyres. I changed mine to the continentals, they have really improved handling with no efficiency consequenses...

    What electric company to use?

    Just give Octopus a call and they will switch you over to Go, if you have not got a smart meter, they will organise one to be fitted. This will give you cheap electricity between 12.30 and 4.30 am

    Late winter/spring - first longer trip to South-West France - some observations ...

    I only used the Electroverse card in France, and had no problems. I thought that the Electroverse card worked on Shell chargers as well? Hopefully they might soon work on Tesla chargers, now that would stir things up.:unsure:

    EV adoption ramping up.

    Seen a very recent increase in our smallish estate, there are at least 5 MG4s (nearly all new model) and same number of Teslas. Also some Leafs (old and new model), probably about 25% BEV's.

    Tyre repair sealant

    I would recommend that for a slow puncture you drive to a good tyre shop and get it repaired properly (usually with a plug). The gunk tends to be only for temp measures (get you to a tyre repairer) and usually renders the tyre (and possibly sensors) knackered.
