Haha ha.
Nope. I will keep my petrol car, thanks.

Buying petrol?

I'm not sure that's allowed... :tsk: But of course it is :wink: When I moved to Germany to work in the late 70's, there was no such thing as baked beans - so I bought tins of white beans and concoted my own sauce - not rocket science ...

I've just had my 'beans on toast' for lunch in Luxembourg and enjoyed it immensely.
It being Sunday, there was only a small supermarket open with their own brand beans but I added some tomato puree and seasoning to the sauce and they tasted fine on wholegrain toast.

Maybe that's the output voltage of the charger? I'll have a read about it when I get the chance. Incidentally, my partner picked up my BYD Atto 3 from the dealership yesterday but I won't be back in Hua Hin for a couple of weeks, so I can't say much about it yet except I'm happy with the price. I pa...

^There could well be one in Nottingham now, I haven't lived there for many years! All this talk of baked beans has aroused some long dormant taste buds and after my morning coffee and croissant ( and free wifi ), I'm going to go to the supermarket and see what beans they have here in Luxembourg for ...

Yes, I haven`t lived in Nottingham since the nineties but at that time we used to drive to a Morrisons in Newark.

I remember that someone got drowned kite surfing off Hua Hin beach some years ago when they got tangled with a buoy and dragged underwater.

^To make you feel better, I’ve just made it to work in Luxembourg on an E-bike at -4C!

^I've never seen a porcupine outside of a zoo, or a TV nature documentary.
I've spent quite a bit of time in Issan but never saw one there, the locals had probably eaten them all!

You learn something everyday, I never knew that porcupines were native to Thailand!

Well, firstly - as I'm no doubt you'll know, pictures posted in the magazines etc. are from way more expensive equipment than you, I or the vast majority of people (even countries) could afford let alone house (or put into orbit)... :D :wink: I was talking to someone I met one night in Luxembourg a...
