IMO.

Zach P and green have done a great job of coming across as normal, but i can’t help think they’ll never quite make it because of a few policies which will never be popular, and to be honest will completely preclude many from voting green.

legalising drugs & lowering speed limits ...

They’re very clever, they built up all their infrastructure over the past few decades and could see net zero coming to capitalise on it. World leader in solar, wind power, batteries, AI and sheer man power and cheap plentiful energy to support the industry.

The psychological process is logical. People voted for X, things got worse so then they voted for Y but things got worse, so now they’re voting for Z.
The issues at heart run way deeper than immigration but somehow that’s what every person and party seemed to concentrate on. It’s hard to admit ...

Good point with the bearings. I think cars with ball bearings behave very differently when the bearings fail vs the older taper bearings. I've never had play or noise changing with direction on a bad bearing but they did all increase in noise/vibration with speed.

I’d still think driveshaft, maybe a bush or even an axle? You’d think it would have to be a component that rotates.

Speaking of X5s I ordered a set of TRW front control arms for it from Germany (they made the originals). They were only £80 a side and I ordered separately to get over the stupid ...

Hamilton got a penalty for the exact same thing last year I think so they’re pretty consistent on corner cutting when driving a damaged car.

Yep McLaren ballsed up the pit stop strategy. They’ve always been quite bad at strategy and not having a considerably faster car than the competition is really hurting them.

The overtake system is weirdly frustrating rather than exciting. Seems like it’s unnecessarily drawn out with the clearly ...

Been experimenting with growing mushrooms for a while. Finally got my DIY grow tent set up to a place I’m happy with:

Agreed that £100 seems to be where the better shoes are these days
Loake have boat shoes section....so I already know where they sit on the scale :lol:

It's odd around percievd value though. Had a meal last night that was £60pp. While that's not common for me, I do wonder why that's considered ...
