Majority say from Unverified Sender…

Even at £8.40 for a gallon of diesel, as it is now, getting around 53mpg still  .....

I dream of 53mpg from my diseasal 

I don't quite get that off my Smart either!

Even at £8.40 for a gallon of diesel, as it is now, getting around 53mpg still makes it preferable to charging at a public charger, with all the faff that entails.

Even the most avid EV evangelist will accept that public charging and EV is more expensive than using petrol or diesel.

DB server seems to be close to maxing out its processors in the UK mornings....

why his government is so oppsing useless 

We only have ourselves to blame, we knew how wet the current labour party are, but it was what "we" wanted and was what "we" voted for....

People, in this country anyway, don't vote for anyone, they vote against the parties they dislike the most.

I'm outside Aidensfield police station, I'll go in and report it.

Gotland?

Yes, although it's not what it used to be. Shop still sells golliwogs though 

A pretty little village in its own right, but become a busy tourist hotspot due to some daft TV drama.  My lasting memory of the place, though, is the amount of sheep shit everywhere

Have a good break

Like YZ, my current usage means I could get away with an EV a fair chunk of the time, but UK breaks away - or even foreign hoidays if going from places like Gatwick - would put me in the realms of having to stop, wait for a charger to become free (anyone ever using the non-Tesla chargers are Oxford services will know exactly that problem, so around an hour wait, then another 30-45m to charge) and pay public charging rates....

It simply doesn't work for me.

Everyone I know who first gets an EV becomes an evangelist about it, and tries to persuade everyone to switch.  I think it's telling that 5 years ago, most of houses in my road had at least one EV. Now none do.

If an EV works for you, I think given the physics of the motor, they are a near ideal form of moving a car around, particularly around town and slower roads.  Its far less suited to motorways and long journeys, particularly if you detest overpriced crap service station coffee.

Can't get a phone signal in Kirkbymoorside or Pickering or Thornton Dale. Come up on the moors to the middle of nowhere and got four bars.

We’ve rented a Lodge in Middleton a few times, a couple of miles out of Pickering. It’s an ideal area for visiting the main towns and beeches etc. We like that area and I can see why you go there. 

I've been panic buying my diesel on a daily basis at the garage in Middleton
