Scotland is different too.
Scotland is different too. MSPs voted to make pavement parking illegal in 2019. Transport (Scotland) 2019 Section 50
Unfortunately, the process for enforcement is not yet in place and has been delayed until next year.

Yes, I went Higuita. At the expense of Pedersen. Woops.
I am not sure Ayuso is in top form.

Petrol versus diesel I think.
Petrol versus diesel I think.
My family own a 17 yr old petrol Golf, it complies. A 12 year old Audi diesel doesn’t.
2015 is roughly the cut for diesel cars, 2006 for petrol cars.
Neither car is likely to be driven in London.

Given Kuss’s TT abilities and the strength of TJV, do you think Kuss could have taken a turn?
Reminds me of when I go up a group in the local chain gang. I am holding on for grim death.Sniffer

The price cap, which was never expected to be the minimum anyone paid, is not and and never has been, designed to protect those vulnerable from significant bill rises.
Is it poorly managed or just the end-game of capitalism? I’d argue that if they made a short-term profit and then left before they had to deal with the aftermath, then it’s exactly how our financial system is designed to operate. I mean, what’s the worst that could happen to them – if they go broke, then the tax-payer foots the bill.
I suspect in this case it was just poor risk management. Maybe not identifying the risk, certainly not doing anything about.
For something as critical as domestic energy supply, with a Regulator, it is not acceptable that there was not a check on the financial viability of a company if the price of energy spiked.

The companies digging the oil
The companies digging the oil and gas out of the ground made lots of money from the rise in price of fossil fuels, but a whole load of energy suppliers went bust in the last year.
I would suggest buying gas on the wholesale market and selling it to consumers hasn’t been that profitable.

At least he got the team mate bonus.

I didn’t bring in Schachmann either.
Was trying to work out the team tactics today, who has enough riders to chase etc. Bora could be all in for Higuita now.
I leave early tomorrow for a long ride. Not sure how I am going to manage if tomorrow is anything like today.
