    Kit Leak.. surely someone has a scooby doo

    50 years of history would suggest a repro kit of Jack Charlton's promotion winning side from 1973-4. Home - all red strip with white band. Away black and blue stripes, black shorts.

    Electric car question.

    For local driving, an electric car is no problem at all. On long trips timing and patience are required. We've done two trips to Barcelona and beyond [South London Smoglet has relocated] in our Renault Zoe. The first in September 2021 we mostly took back roads through France and Spain charging...

    Nigel Farage in Redcar…

    I like that idea - Farage at Large a la Plage. The odious, greasy, lying, racist, little chancer could then swim out to the Gare, to check out the illegals floating in from Denmark. Recar Workies - Hang your heads.

    Russia-Ukraine sport implications

    There's no way, logically, that a Russian-owned sports club should be allowed to take any further part in any competition, in either the EU or the UK..

    What do you have with your toasted sandwiches? Red/Brown sauce / Mayo / Pickle.....?

    Not a toastie, but toasted. First toast the bread, then put sliced cheese on top, usually cheddar, but gruyère or emmenthal is ok too. Slice tomato thinly and place on top of cheese. Coat tomatos with oil, then sprinkle cayenne pepper, celery salt and oregano on top of tomato. Grill until tomato...

    Not getting rid of my 2.5 Litre Petrol

    Not far off I'd say. An Iberdrola rapid charge cost us 1 euro per 3.25 kwh, which is around 13 miles worth. Petrol was about 1 euro 40 per litre.

    Not getting rid of my 2.5 Litre Petrol

    Some more stuff on EVs: We were car-less for more than twenty years. It was never much of a problem in London - I'd cycle most places including to work, otherwise public transport would do. Two things decided Mrs. Smog that she wanted a car again - Covid, therefore a reluctance to travel on...
