      I think you will find that those whom you have elected have abrogated the responsibility to the planning department.

      There have been plans to have an F1 street race in London, and also the Formula E series was looking at having a street race near Buckingham Palace.

      I have more problem with the sun in side mirrors when it is behind me.

      I much prefer the interior mirrors where you flip a little lever to tilt the mirror and leave a plain glass at the angle that lets you look out the rear. I find the "automatic dipping" mirror in my Mondeo never seems to dip at the right time.

      EPG Error – How Do They Do It (Quest)

      I always wonder what sort of annual review the people who do this work get. It can't be 'top of their game' surely.

      Driving and Roads

      Every automatic requires this AIUI. haven't found an auto that doesn't, but then my selection of auto vehicles has been limited over the years. Manual cars in USA require you to put your foot on the clutch to start it, legal requirement apparently, apart from it being a good habit anyway.

      Driving and Roads

      I think the one time I watched one of those was when motorway cops stopped someone speeding - and it wasn't just a little bit over the limit, from memory it was approaching ton-up. The speeding driver turned out to be a police driving instructor. I wonder how much instructing he got to do...

      My automatic gearbox provides a nice amount of engine braking when in 'sport' mode.

      Start Up Fails When HDD Connected

      Eek, I wouldn't be happy with the length of those leads. The way they are bent leaves them very close to contacting the cother components on the PCB. As a bodge to verify that it solves the problem is one thing, but I would want to clean it up somewhat to make it safer from vibration causing a...

      What happened to my lighting

      In a previous job incarnation I was national tech support for the business minicomputer range the company marketed. One particular model used the earliest incarnation of 16k bit dynamic RAM chips, which included a parity bit for each byte. These chips required +12V and +/-5V supplies to operate...

      Smart meters, less smart companies

      I get emails every month from OVO asking for my readings, and periodically, a letter saying they want to change my meter as it is "out of calibration". I just ignore the letters as I don't want a meter for the reason you give. So far haven't had any threatening letters about forcing entry to...
