Ringworm does though.

I was at university in 1981, not much in the way of politics, though on my course most students were basically right of centre. Went again in 2005 and again, not much interest, though most students were left of centre. I think the centre has moved to the right. Prior to 1981 I did my apprenticeship, most people I worked with were very central in their politics. I think there was a bigger gap between Labour and Tory during the 80s, but that was mainly because Thatcher and Kinnock were miles apart, and we all saw how well that helped the Labour party.

Not exact though. I think the distance measurement is the only one that is a stated conversion rather than a defined one based on something real i.e. wavelength of light.

1" is 25.4mm exactly.

That would make sense. I suggested this years ago as a cheap way to reinforce the local grid.

SI

They have tried that already.

Went to visit my Mother today, there was a tatty copy of Picture Post from 1941 on her bedside table. The issue was about housing, planning, comfortable living etc. (expletive deleted) all has changed in 80 years. Except the front cover of the magazines. Would be on the top shelf, and a brown paper bag now, and probably an undercover copper as the shop keeper. Going to show it anyway.

Gas, oil, coal and timber fires also produce CO2. They also convert most of the hydrogen in the hydrocarbon to water vapour. A really badly set up gas boiler will also produce some oxides of nitrogen. (combustion chemistry is quite simple, generally, just look at what the base fuel is made from, split it up and add an oxygen atom or two to it. NOX is normally a secondary reaction caused by high temperature or pressure)

Am I reading that right. 314 Ah at 3.2V, so 1 kWh. 6000 discharges, so £0.19/kWh before the cost of the juice you put in.

Except political disenfranchisement. I tend to think that people that don't vote are happy with what government is currently in. A better system is to give the incumbent the unused votes, there is more of a voter incentive to vote a party out, or keep them in, that way.

Or we having the cooling requirements. A lot of France has similar weather to us.

So my old lodger, who had a stroke in the first 3 years of her life, is a scrounger. As are the people affected by thalidomide. Are the workers that got made redundant when a large employer closes scroungers?

Define 'scroungers'. Seems the over 65s are currently the biggest contributors to income tax. https://ifs.org.uk/data-items/share-adult-population-paying-income-tax-age-bracket

Was that really caused by the reduction in uncontrolled ventillation or by an increase in internal temperature dry the structure out. Have you tried checking the RH levels without the PIV switched on recently?

TL:DR the replies. It is worth doing a heat loss calculation on your house, then you may be able to target the areas that can be improved. My guess is the suspended floor (it is a large area) and general air leakage are your main problems. Double glazing, in isolation, does not cause condensation, it is caused by the interaction of humidity and temperature, you can get condensation at 40°C.

There are a number of different reviews about world energy, EIA, OPEC BP, Petroleum, all are within a fraction of each other. Makes it easy to see the Venezuela has more proven reserves/resources that anyone else. The trouble with all these reviews is that many people do not want to believe them. Those people cannot be helped.

It didn't.

I have been told many times that the world economy is affected by oil prices. So I thought I would look at global inflation rates and oil prices since 1970. When inflation is low, oil prices are high, and visa versa. Seems to be the polar opposite from what I was told.

Yes, but it is a good place to start looking for a leak.

The OBR (Office for Budget Responsibility) has, apparently, issued an apology for creating the most recent leaks. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgmn991pz9jo So they should be the OBI from now on. What a bunch of twats.

Henry are good, as are Numatic (which is the same but a bit cheaper). We got one of these for general cleaning at work, is good, but heavy and hard to push when on full suck. https://sharkclean.co.uk/product/shark-anti-hair-wrap-upright-vacuum-cleaner-with-lift-away-pet-model-black-nz691uktdb-zidNZ691UKTDB

WD40 is not really a good lubricant, it is really a water displacer, so used to free up stuff. These sort of bearings should usually be greased, so a finger of Vaseline, or silicone grease, which I know you have by the bucket load.

This is the good stuff we used, cheap to.
