Last Notes npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader not sure sarcasm works on the deniers. I like the ones who say it isn’t worth doing anything because we only produce 1% of the CO2. But I believe 52% of all countries only produce about that much so if we all did it in our enclaves we would save 50%. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader com up to Shropshire. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader I wonder how much is down to access to equipment and inventions coupled with communication? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader perhaps France and UK could do the same in the Channel? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader The ban on Venezuelan oil doesn’t seem to interest the media. That would ease world supply. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader about time this was taken seriously. No prying about no sun or wind and by staggering them along the coast the slack period in one place will be full power in another. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader but is there any evidence that he ever made women’s breasts increase in size? If no then not an honest man. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader I guess he could hypnotise them. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader didn’t there used to be a water computer at Oxford or Cambridge that modelled the economy? Terry Pratchett parodied it npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader get more North Sea oil and gas. Other countries will pay higher prices so export it. Unlike Norway N Sea oil belongs to World markets not UK npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader Rick can grow tea - at least it i grown in the South West npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader you have the climate. will unwrap fig, olive and kiw berry soon npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader I seem to remember that in the 30s the RAF used biplanes (Hawker Harts?) to control Persia by machine gunning and bombs, If a pilot crashed the advice was shoot your self as the locals were hostile to be bombed. Odd that npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader tea npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader NCCs are fine as long as commensurate financial incentive is given npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader Juno curled up warm. That is until the small cat evicts her. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader Still oop north or back on Dartmoor? Had a wet and cold enjoyable walk along the canal this morning. The Shropshire and Montgomery canal is being rebuilt Our nearest section had a problem due to the rare aquatic plants - talk of sails only on that bit - but the Trust is digging all the plans up and putting them in a safe place to be replanted and hopefully spread after dredging. sadly the aqueduct over the Vyrnwy is not up to Chirk or Pontcysyllte. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader When the inevitable happens to Larry a day of National mourning needed. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader if the government halve the tuition fee for students but topped up the other half - well with so many loans never repaid they lose both ways) would that help? My wife. Retired academic working in three universities, two ex polys, one teacher training. The top management drive for buildings that looked good on publications was weird. Only one reduced the number of buildings and it seems to be working. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader what if those AI machines could actually alter their stock valuations? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader he’s one of the 76% o residents not born in Monaco.

Not a great way of funding care npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader the worry is untried policies in areas where Green has little or no experience. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader wasn’t there a London labour mo in a similar situation?

Drink driving laws only work with enforcement and unless that is boosted it will be meaningless. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader -5C light scattering of snow npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader d looks like it, ka sold £439 npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader there’s a box set p for sale but I don’t know what else is in the box npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader I have two occupational pensions.

Now I can record on hard drives four simultaneous programmes.

Their rules are to make the best returns they can to insure that the pension fund is solvent. So many aren’t. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader but what would you have done in Starmer’s situation? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader he wants that Nobel medal.

Chargers all over now. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader Caimh McDonnell. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader seeing that many changes don’t come I for a couple of years why is that short termism especially as the country needs the money now? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader surely Parisians. They are reputed to be rude to the French npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader he’s a smarmy git who would lose loads of votes for Labour.

You leak something that is so bad that when you do what you originally intended it is not as bad. Also a good way to get feedback if you have yet to decide on alternatives npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader how many will have decided that working for the government is no longer a good idea and have moved on? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader net zero ignores the amount of carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere. We need at least minus 10% npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader damned if they did, damned if they didn’t. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader and their interest on saving. Only half the amount untaxed against normal rate. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader second hand NVIDIA equipment will be on the market soon.

But then we had to do arithmetic as well. 70 years ago. Just 4 teachers for 108 children and no teaching assistants.

Our garden contractor went over the threshold and his costs in terms of bookkeeping and accountancy have pushed up his prices in addition to the 20%. npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader bought a record deck.

Not quite the same as shareholders may live a fair distance away from the site npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader surely not the one in Lancashire? npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader my wife is an ex Dean. She may not agree npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader QAA still going.

Just found the ILPs saved when we moved and can’t understand my choices. Gone are Beatles and Wendy (Walter) Carlos Switched on Bach but retained are all the Herb Alpert Laps including the one men bought for the cover Whipped Cream and Other Delights. Still Bob Newhart and Gerard Hoffnung got saved npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader everyone once again seem to forget the third largest number of MPs are Lib Dem’s.

No dedicated chips then and the train receiver needed a model coach to hold it. We had to convert a to ultrasonic remote to send specific frequencies to control the train npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader and the newspapers in a short of news period used to publish some of the stories. I believe OU was banned from Strathclyde after an event npub197qczlmtwjnledt5uxw83mzu6m7qn8d6szey58q07p5scfk8x3ksmhwyr8 John_Loader I went to Reading, Warwick, Bath, Durham and York.
