    Custom Fit - Scotland

    I'd agree with that, I went for a woods fitting last year and it felt I tried most brands as I had preferences but came away with Cobra which have performed as promised. My pal went for a driver fitting. They only sold him the head because the shaft he had in his current one was the best...

    Salary inequalities

    Genuine question on this. Were pay rises purely based on quantitative analysis or was there a degree of subjectivity? If the latter could unconscious bias potentially be a factor? I don't think these things are done on purpose but you can see how the drift can happen

    Railways, Underground and Unions

    I don't interpret that as what he's suggesting though. I might be wrong, bit it seems like more of cooperative model. These stand offs come from each side not trusting or believing each other creating a them and us situation. Unions have representation on many a board in Germany, it seems the...

    What sounds communist about that, I don't understand?

    The all things EV chat thread

    I've followed this thread with interest. We have 2 ice cars that need replacing. Our mileage has dropped drastically post covid but we still need 2 cars. We'd like to replace one with an EV but lease prices seem to have gone through the roof. Is there any sign of them coming back down due to...

    TV Series - What Are You Watching?

    Black Bird on Apple TV. Great dramatisation of a true story about how prisoner was giving the option of having his sentence commuted if he'd get a transfer to max security prison and get evidence to convict a serial killer who had an appeal close to being approved

    Solar panels , would you ?

    It's a real rabbit hole isn't it? We have a great water tank and boiler. With the way we've done our extension we have quite a small proportion of original wall left. For 65m2 we quoted around £10k external wall insulation. Even with a 40% grant it's a huge outlay. I feel like the ASHP is the...

    Solar panels , would you ?

    We have one of each in our house??. I'm think of moving us to an ASHP and then solar in a year. I've done all the other insulation. Our biggest challenge is getting a smart meter to monitor usage. Last time they came, I was out, they said they couldn't fit one. Really need real time energy usage...

    Thanks for all this info. Do you have an air source heat pump?

    Rugby Thread

    That was a really tough watch last night, absolutely desperate thing to have to go through and knowing what's in the near future for him and his family. As an RL fan many of the same issues will come up but the scrum training he said he had to endure was crazy. As a bare minimum the advisory...

    The Cricket Thread

    Gutted Yorkshire went down but our batting has been lacking for a few years. We never really expect Root and Bairstow to be about but losing Malan and Brooks plus Ballance's ongoing travails have hit us hard
