    TT 2021 ??

    Out of curiosity I wonder why we have to wait until the cooking oil has been used before recycling it into Biofuel? We're all going to have to eat a hell of a lot more chips to keep the transport systems running smoothly in the future. Quite a nice prospect, though, as long as the curry sauce supplies don't dry up.

    And if you ask any school child what is the biggest issue in the world today, they will repeat the mantra that's been drummed into them by their trendy lefty teachers that it is the twin evils of climate change and plastic. Never mind the wars, poverty, CIVID etc, it's climate change and furthermore it's climate change that's caused the wars, poverty and COVID in the first place. Oh yes. Also if you ask a child what their ambitions are for their future, many just say that they want to become a climate change scientist without any notion of what this involves.

    I just did some Googling about Biofuels. Seems they still chuck out loads of CO2 but the thought is that it is offset somewhat by the next crop of Biofuel plants which are sitting in the ground, growing, and absorbing CO2 for photosynthesis or whatever. The same thinking goes on to say that the growing of the plants requires motorised methods of production (ploughing and so on) to be done on an industrial scale that would be needed to supply the world's requirements, and therefore Biofuels will have little or no advantage over traditional fossil fuels in terms of climate friendliness. There's also mention of the gases given off my the spent plants decomposing after they have had the Biofuel ingredients squeezed out of them, which can be harvested to heat homes etc but will still add to overall CO2 and methane gas levels in the atmosphere.
  4. It comes with an hour meter fitted so can't that be inspected to see if it's actually got 4 and a bit hours on the clock?
  5. "no science to support the efficacy of face masks"..... You should write to the hospital and explain that to them. They could save a fortune by not wearing masks when carrying out surgery, operations etc.
  6. Not to mention all the time wasted by the Scottish coastguard.....
  7. Blimey I'm off to sign for Castletown - Qatar in 2022 needs my skill!
  8. Hadn't realised it was the Isle of Man side LOL
  9. Sounds daft but your son's expression is just right for the background of the street, somehow. Someone else mentioned this above. He looks slightly cynical, if that's the right word. It is a great photo.
  10. Now it turns out we've got to bring our own food: Picnic How are we going to carry a hamper without messing up our finest outfits?
  11. And their April 1st offering is still in the news section,.
