Posit: Electricity now cheaper than home heating oil

Frankly its perfectly possible to hitch the motorway networks. I have done it.

IF people gave lits as they did in wartime, as a matter of duty and of course, then it would be a reliable way to get around very fast indeed.

They ought not to be making sure, but they could at lest make it less expensive.

Coercive government is a pain in the arse. Inducive government is much better.

Help people do the right thing: Not punish them for doing the wrong thing.

Yep..I think that is what we are looking at. £100 a tank, rather than the £5 it used to be 'when I were a lad'.

Hey, a I cynical in thinking that the governments sudden fondness for nuclear power has something to do with the fact that they stand to make about £30bn from their stake in British Energy when it gets sold..

EDF or EON?

There's a nice old power station site right where its needed, in Battersea..plenty of cooling water, and potential Olympic sized heated swimming pool could be built alongside..as well as heating half of south London via waste water..Good transport links via the Thames as well.

Hmm.

It's a tad over 10 gallons... 10 to 15 gallons is the tank size on most =

normal "family cars" isn't it?

My motor has 90l (a shade under 20 gallons) tank, good for about 600 mil= es full to "running on air".

My average fill up cost this year is =A378.46. Min =A360.00 Max =A395.00= .

For all the protests from solar panel firms, I cannot help but think that the money paid out in grants might be better employed bringing public buildings up to scratch, especially those that are heated for extended periods (e.g. libraries)
