    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.

    that's because you don't understand international laws. They can choose where they want to go. They transit many countries, the last one being France before reaching the UK. It's up to our Courts to decide if they should be given leave to remain and for how long. Not Border Force.

    they have the right to have their claim examined by our Courts. France has about 150,000 asylum claims a year and they don't try to push people back out to the high seas.

    I think the growth area for electric planes is to have a similar carrying capacity as a family car. Overtime, those electric planes will learn to fly themselves.
