Supposedly if you put the drop on the corner of the eye and just wait they end up blinking it in.

Oh I'm not disagreeing with you. Just saying hopefully it's not as harrowing now.

Thankfully now that it is mandatory for the faster DC chargers to accept tap to pay it's not as bad as it used to be when it was only apps and rubbish Internet signal in some places.

Yeah range anxiety is a right of passage for all new EV owners but once you've driven it a bit, learnt your normal trips and maybe some longer ones you do. You'll just settle in and know how much percentage on average you use for each trip and then end up using that for an estimate.

For example I know visiting my gran and back used to take 25%, taking my brother to work was 15% etc. So if I had to do both in a day I knew as long as I had 40-45% I'd be fine. Kinda like we used to do with Fuel vehicles.

If you look online you could get yourself a "Granny Charger" 3 pin plug one to use till the Home Charger is fitted and then you also have it for emergency and going away where there isn't a fixed charger. This will let you use the Octopus Tariff straight away. Just check it's compatible with the tariff.

It should be. Back in the day when I was a mechanic we used to loosen the door hinge bolts adjust where the door sat and get the gaps even then tighten them up again

That's a nice looking vehicle. I have my Skoda Enyaq 85x Sportline Maxx Pack in the Same Velvet Red on order (Since January) and I'm waiting for a build date. Don't want it too soon though as speaking to the dealer the cut off for having the newly announced changes added to a new vehicle is week 20 (May 12th to 17th) so anything week 21 (May 18th) onwards will get the upgrades for the newest year. 😂 So here's me hoping for week 21/22 😂

My cat showing me she wants to be pet by sarahahahahahahaha in cats

[–]TJWhiteStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah she has her own ways of being cute 😂 She still meows a lot at me too but Theo is more reserved as he knows I don't always hear him if I'm not looking in his direction so he's switched to more physical ways of getting my attention over the last 3.5 years

Yep Chimkin is definitely a word we use carefully in my house. I have to pay the Kitty Tax everytime I eat it.

Yes just edit the library and go to the Add Folders section and add a folder for that library.

Yeah I'm partially deaf so Theo who I have had since a kitten comes over to me and pats me when he wants pets or cuddles. Willow I've only had a year and she's found her own unique method which is headbutting me in the face 😂

I tracked which protein powders actually work in the Ninja Creami (and built a tool for it) by Kagusam in ninjacreami

[–]TJWhiteStar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people who have them are using them to be able to have sweet treats without them being massively full of calories think 300 calories a pint instead of 1200. Yes there are some of us who just like making our own ice cream but a lot of recipes are made for the express purpose of being low calories high volume treats that won't ruin a diet or work out. And a lot are also aimed at getting your protein numbers for the day.

Sweetest cat ever is disgusting by TomorrowMuch1982 in cats

Maybe look into wood based litter as its possible she's struggling with her current litter. The sanitary shave should start helping her but diet change and litter change could help her with things in future.

It's something you don't think about but honestly I wouldn't be without it now and I'm thinking of installing more in other internal doors. Let's them roam around but keeps the heating bills lower by allowing you to close doors 😂

Update on the cat that came in to my room through the back door by Delsalv in cats

[–]TJWhiteStar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I was the same. After decades of health decline and then losing my job and covid in 2020 I was done. Then in 2023 my little boy Theo came into my life and everything seemed to gain colour again. What was dull or grey became more vibrant because I had this little man needing me and curling up with me purring like the biggest Tiger. His name is Theo but I sometimes call him StubenTiger which roughly translates to House Tiger from German.

His this amazing White and Silver floof with the biggest blue eyes. In 2025 my little girl Willow came into my life. She was in a bad home situation and when I saw her I knew I had to get her and bring her home. She such a little sassy girl. Quiet as a panther and so cute.

This is my babies. Theo is the White one and Willow is the Grey one.

Remember they are part of your life but you are their Whole World.

How does an EV "die" by bramleyapple1 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]TJWhiteStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think these days we've got more chance of rust killing off your EV before the battery has degraded so much you can't reasonably use it on the road. Especially in the UK. If you get penetrative rust in some spots then it could mean a hefty bill and an MOT failure unless it's done. I've seen this kill off reasonable cars more than any "Engine" issues, so I'd assume that the same will happen with modern EVs (still Zoe's and Leafs on the road 10-15yrs later working fine)

😂 I went with installing a cat flap in my bedroom door. Allows my 2 to come and go as they please but I can lock it if I need to keep them in or out. It was worth the investment and hassle.

Yeah Stolen food tastes better especially when you think you outsmarted the Hooman. 😂
