One thing I've been thinking about; what will power planes after fossil fuels?

Thats a live demand chart (15min delay)
Looks like a normal evening pattern of falling demand. We'll need to compare with last Saturday or yesterday, which will happen.

I've got all the lights on and the desktop and laptop computer, charging my phone and airsoft gun.

This is great, I've just been round the local area with my night-vision goggles and nicked loads of electrical stuff from neighbours while they are sitting in the dark, freezing their nuts off. I now have even more stuff to switch on. biggrin

Is this you TVR?

And I've just gone and put two tea towels into the washing machine. I didn't bother using the 'half load' setting, and made sure that I turned the tempriture up to 90 degrees celcius.

Also the dishwasher is on, even though it is empty. So too the tumble dryer.

So, take your global warming and shove it up your ar$e.


I keep trying to post but it won't load up

I really didn't think that I was doing enough to help, had a dose of guilt and......

Went outside and started up my petrol powered chainsaw and turned on the tumble dryer and dishwasher, even though they are both empty.


I'm trying my best chaps, I really am.
And another.

I dont think anybody did this around my way.

I went for a walk to the shop and almost every house still has some lights on.

YouTube comments made me smile smile

I just noticed this thread and thought "Ooh just in time to turn the heating up and switch all the lights on"... Mentioned it to the girlfriend...

And, well... We've been together 4 years and I always thought she was normal. She drives a Puma 1.7, turns the heating up as hot as she wants, plugs in all sorts of hair straighteners and what-not...

But as I am now sitting in darkness, only allowed on my laptop because it's running on battery, I can't help but think...


Where do I get a new one?

Yes it did. It stopped the planet heating up for the previous 10 years.....
