Simple eh ?

Bad input to the ECU seems the most easily fixable possibility.
New ECU a less happy thought.

@Explosive Newt

I'd missed the post where you said you were professor of cardiology

An area close to (forgive the pun) my heart

I've had issues with atrial fibrillation since my early 30s (now 55)

I've had numerous cardio versions and now 4x ablations (the last being a 4 hour procedure inside ...

No wonder Argentina want the Falklands!

I hate to say it but I do have a jacket with suede patches on the elbows...

Thank you everyone. A couple of days of hearty celebrations have left me totally beat.

It's a 50-50 split of research and clinical time. There will be some teaching but probably not a lot, the focus is research (and bringing in grants and trials for £).


Is it your own project you’ll be doing ...

It’s a good strategy, I always end up making far too much and it’s not cost effective, or not enough and I am throwing away stale bread.

Do you make it yourself or are we talking the pre-made stuff you buy in pots?

A vantage, around West Scotland is a serious life goal right now...

Technically I am Professor of cardiology at the university of Cambridge and honorary consultant cardiologist at royal Papworth hospital

Thanks Mik and long awaited - couple of months before I start so maybe that driving holiday around Scotland is a good idea!

The robes vary day to day which is interesting. An opportunity to consume port on the daily.

I am now a professor at the university of Cambridge

I heard this live, and the pause after this was great, and hilarious.

And to be fair you would think that might be enough to win for bin.

AI is not google.

(Which is confusing as google now brings you AI.)

If you want to find a fact, I would not use it.

If you want to automate a process, it's great.

Turns out the place I am staying has free parking. Seems like a no brainer to drive!

In Bruges reference I believe.

Have to get to London tomorrow for a course in the Regents Park area. I think driving and parking is the best option but tricky to find decent parking there.

Half the trains are cancelled and only the slow ones left - it's a gamble, either the trains will be deserted because everyone has heeded ...

So what do they do? Sink heat into water that you throw out? Seeking education.


I think you're thinking of an air cooler there - those are fans with a tank you fill with water/ice which communicates with the fan via a radiator so you remove some of the heat from the air into the water (and then ...

Bought a plug-in AC unit last week (I figured dynamic pricing would bite if I waited). On a couple of trial runs at the weekend, it did a decent job of cooling down our bedroom but the real test will be in the coming days.

I am meant to be at a course in London Weds-Sat but feel a little fortunate ...
