You might be wondering why I’m writing a post about Electric Vehicles, popularly referred to as EVs, having just received my lastest diesel company car. Joe Simpson has written a post over here about Renault’s advertising of its strategy to move towards affordable and usable electric cars in the next couple of years, and [...] From 2010_52 We had another cold snap this week, with a couple of inches of snow falling in one afternoon. I took this from the car while sitting in a traffic jam, seemingly caused by rear-wheel drive German cars unable to complete a hill ascent.

I’ve never been a massive Vauxhall fan but changes to my company car scheme gave me the vast choice of errr… a Vauxhall.

I was in town one evening and saw this old couple hand-in-hand walking home with their shopping. It struck me how lovely it was to see [...] This morning Laurence Singlehurst taught at our local church. The underlying point of his talk was that without integrity our society will collapse. He pointed out that British society is generally very cynical about the people who rule over us, illustrated by the joke about telling that a politician is lying by observing their [...] Many of you will know that I’ve recommended Sleep Cycle as a great alarm clock which also tracks your sleep patterns through the night. However, I’ve come across a bug which stops displaying the tracking graphs sometime between 30 and 40 nights in. I tried various things (aircraft mode etc) but nothing has worked.
