Agreed, and that's me most of the time, seeing very few or none. I don't use any public transport, only the car or walking alone, so the supermarket a couple of times a week is often the only time I get near to people. .

That's not good advice because the front is light. A powerful front hub motor can just wheelspin, especially on a loose or damp surface. .

Probably just as bad, crates packed by god knows who, cuffing their dribbling noses between skiving off for toilet visits without washing hands. The crates loaded into a van that goes to various other customers who are trying to infect the driver, who in turn comes to me. No, the choice is...

The coronavirus gets better and better! First the prospect that a pandemic could help with reducing the world overpopulation problem. Second that it's mainly the excess of non-productive elderly who are culled. Now the prospect that it might also reduce the birth rate to keep down the...

That applies to me but I'm still not bothered. I've just got back from my usual very large supermarket which as ever was packed with people. Since it serves a very wealthy area to the south and a well-to-do middle class area to the north, the clientele during weekdays are predominately...

Taking a cue from dog protection: A budget is for a year, HS2 is for life. .

Ex Tory minister David Gauke agrees with us, also saying on BBC news that it was the Labour budget. .

Masks will probably be sold out by then! .

One and the same Angel of death in Islam and some Hebrew traditions, both spellings used. Most commonly come across in classical music thanks to Josef Suk's Asrael symphony where "s" is used. .

It's occurred that I'm yet to see anyone wearing any form of face mask. The supermarket I use is one of the largest with hordes of customers and the roads I drive on are frequently packed with pedestrians in the retail areas. There's also many educational establishments, primary, secondary and...

I'm half Italian from Piedmont in the locked down North which is the centre of the infection of that country. So looks like my genes aren't ideal for escaping it. But at my age I'm not bothered, Asrael is already hanging around the back door on the offchance. .

Hearing Tory Sunak delivering his proposed Labour budget probably made him feel sick. .

I agree, but as I listened it was clear that this was a justification for Jeremy Corbyn and John McDonald since it was the Labour budget they intended. Very large expenditure on boosting the economy, on investment to do that, on public services and the NHS and on support for all the...

The bloke in the Dalston bike accident will probably be retired by the time this thread stops. .

Especially if you are one of the players.. .

I think it entirely reasonable to ask e-bikers for advanced legal mortgage advice. After all, when the country needed a new prime minister they decided a clown was ideal. .

Sounds reasonable, considering buses can have fan driven ventilation systems. .

Indeed, Britons exiting has a whole new meaning now. :( .

Charge once a day Dan, doing roughly 15 miles and using half or more of the charge each day. The things that shorten life the most are emptying the battery and the last period of charging that fills the cells to the limit. The first you can avoid of course, the second you shouldn't because...

But did he drown or die naturally with a heart attack? It always amuses me that when I post about how dangerous swimming is, it seems to antagonise and I get many posts trying to prove something different. .
