those who are furloughed are not criminals, it's our government's policy and message that encourage them to do what they did.

frame number is under the bottom bracket on the GC, on the head tube under the Woosh logo on the Camino.

why should you even ask the question? Government told them not to go to work but does not tell them to stay at home. Remember which idiot who said 'eat out to help out'?

it seems that the software is OK but the cameras' resolution and processing speed are still not good enough. It won't be long though for the hardware to catch up.

the parameter presets are middle of the road, you can of course change them to suit yourself and that does not affect your warranty. Southend is very flat, I don't need the GC, I ride the Faro which has the same LCD but much smaller motor and battery and take my Brompton with me on holidays.

I am not repeating government's lines. The furlough scheme is necessary as soon as businesses are forced to close under lockdown. There is simply no way around it. The scheme grants roughly £5,000 per person it helped. Think about grants for e-cars, house insulation etc. As to why we have to...

Once the decision to lockdown was taken (to save the NHS), schools had to be closed, parents were needed at home, cinemas and restaurants must also be closed. Furlough is the only way to keep businesses going. Although I closed my shop for about a year, I kept staff working from home as much as...

the Swedes' success may be partly down to their national character, having fewer hooligans than we do. As for the amount we spent on covid, the 68 billions spent on furlough is justified, the rest was thrown in mostly wrong directions like test & trace and god knows how much went to friends of...

I suppose I cling to life a bit more than when I was younger. You may see hysteria but I see grave concerns. Until not so long ago, probably around last June, should we need to go to hospital for any reason, we may not come out alive despite all the precautions pre vaccination. Even now, every...

the wiki article you linked in your post rexplained that we would need 225 CCBs per 100,000 inhabitants if we don't do anything to mitigate the disease. The AZ is said to be 74% effective, In the North where we achieve 90% vaccination rate, that leaves 1 - 0.74*0.90 = 34% requiring 225 * 0.34 =...

I have never contradicted that letting nature take its course is not a solution, only it's not optimal because they block the hospitals for all of us.

we agreed at least on exposure to covid, by contracting the disease or vaccination, produces antibodies and some herd immunity. If the total of those having covid and those not having covid but vaccinated reaches nearly 100% then you get what is currently observed. My point is, the more people...

another explanation could be along the line: the local population could not afford to go for covid testing, just in case they are found positive and must self isolate. Over time, the number of people with antibodies will be higher than expected from vaccinations and past positive tests alone.

our current infection rate is apparently twice the combined infection rate of Germany, France and Spain. I suspect that the causes are not only the lack of face mask wearing and the desire to keep restaurants and pubs full, but also the less effectiveness of the AZ vaccine against catching Covid.

Your figures make interesting reading. 17500 hours , major service interval: I take it that the heatpump works more or less all the time? that would equate to about 2-3 years. That is a lot shorter than 4-5 years for gas boilers.

The internal clutch and gearbox are disengaged when freewheeling. The test is indicative only of the state of your motor's bearings. If it drops much below what it was when the motor was new then it may be worth to take action.

yes, it was.

but who loaded the gun with real bullets?

what he means is while the clock is ticking, what you see/feel as happening has already happened by the time you see/feel, so there is no present really, only past and future.

Brian Cox said something similar on his film about time.
