Re: Bye Bye Burnham
I think it’s a good thing to be less London centric but I’m not sure Burnham has explained it very well. The working brawn of the government comes from its civil servants and they’re pretty well spread out across the country. Would splitting 10 Downing Street actually streamline things or just ...

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla
I was reading the opposite from JP Morgan a few days ago which was hilarious. “It’s different this time” basically. Which is what they say every time.

Doing some tidying up in the greenhouse - everything in the south facing window side has been burnt to a crisp. Noticed the sewer pipe I use has been charred as has the wooden frame that supports it

Re: No F1 thread?
It’s a piss take. Also made even more fishy by the fact that there were actual double yellows waved but it seems like the digital system only showed single yellows. Antonelli seemed adamant it was double yellows till Toto shut him up.

The responsible thing to do is to store those logs for eternity so the carbon remains locked up. Otherwise you’ll join that list with Pol Pot and Elon for killing people.
