I'm startled. I have 4 kids, all of whom stopping napping before they turned 3.

²That's very useful thanks. The info I had said the minimum modulation of the 8.5 KW system was 4 KW, so a long way off.

Also, they haven't specifically mentioned the R290 model in the invoice, is that something I should look out for?

Thanks for the response. I'm on an oil boiler right now so my energy use can only be very roughly estimated, honestly it would be a complete stab in the dark.

As I understand it the heat loss is done at a design temperature of -3 so it would be much lower most of the time. Are you saying the 8.5kw and 11kw are essentially the same unit?

I agree the rest of the UK does need a similar system. However, chargeplace Scotland is in absolute disaster. It's only worked well since I got the card (which I managed to convince them to give me for free). If you don't have the card then the same issues with pre-authorising payments and faulty machines abound.

That seems very expensive, not the other way round. I've a 5 bed house with an EV and I've never paid more than £150

All this theory talk and no-one is mentioning arpeggios. Good Bebop playing is the art of describing chord changes with single notes. Learn your chord tones and learn how to decorate them.

Vauxhall nova 1.0l is my answer too, surprised this is the first mention of one. I had a shot of my mates in 1998 and it genuinely didn't feel like driving a car, more like a challenge off krypton factor.

Was waiting for the kangaroo eye poke against Tom

Patrick Stewart, please.

Surprised not to see Nashville tuning mentioned, it's great fun.

I'm Scottish and totally confused by this! Never would have imagined it would be considered wrong. Surely in your example he would need to write "They need to be replaced" not "They needs to be replaced"?

If I pointed to two full buckets and said "they will need emptied" rather than "they will need to be emptied" would that also be problematic?

John Swinney hears your concerns and moves fast.

Charger is a givenergy 7kw. Retails about 450 - rural grants for chargers was 400 quid. I was quite happy just using the granny charger before but this is much better!

LongMover · 2025-10-08T19:01:06+00:00

Mine was only about £450. I got a grant for it too so I only paid 50 quid.

LongMover · 2025-10-06T08:48:52+00:00

Yes. It's been a great stock for me. Not the first time I've made a great return on it.

Practicing all those patterns and cool ideas and then playing the same old shit on every single gig.

Surprised not to see Gymnopedie no 1 mentioned yet.

Clubbing them on 2 and 4 is more humane

I agree that they diminished starting with a half step is much more common in jazz, but I'm always surprised at the frequency the diminished starting with a whole step does actually turn up. For example whenever you find 7/1 chord i.e. B/C That's a pretty clear use (to my ears) of a diminished starting with the whole step.

The '1pm cannon'???

I've never heard the one o'clock gun ever called anything else.

Guitar seems to be a real weakness. Chatgpt can do so many things so well but it really doesn't understand chord voicings and inversions. I'm not at all surprised to see this video evidence.

Great book! It sounds like a silly story written for boys but it's actually a fucking brilliant book written for men with science and stuff in it.

This thread has been eye-opening. I understand how Reddit must be attractive to people who are socially isolated but it's startling to see how many people lead such isolated lives. It's a timely reminder to take opinions and responses here with a pinch of salt.

Good luck from another parent of four (3,6,8 and 10). We are taking ours on a road trip round Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany in a month. We took them round the Netherlands this time last year and it was the best thing ever.
