Do You Really Ever Own an EV?
<snip image>
https://youtu.be/yul8h-Wedfo
Buying an electric vehicle is a lot like buying a subscription to a car.
You can read the full article by Cory Gunther at the following link.
https://bit.ly/3HOrtxw

Not to mention a very expensive one, and I'm wasn't over the moon of its mileage per full charge about 20% less than a tank of fuel.  There hasn't been much said about battery deterioration over time and number of charges.  All other batteries, like your laptop lose the capacity over time, if Electric Vehicles are the same that mileage per full charge is also going to go down.

Then there is the cost of replacing them when that time comes (8 years ?), the closer to that time the less you are likely to get when you sell it (if you can even sell it). Currently there are too many question marks.

A vehicle that I was looking at from the same company as my existing petrol burner is between 3.5 and 4 times the price if purchasing.  Given the above question marks, is it worth leasing and what would be the comparative running costs.

So it looks like I could be running my three year old very low mileage car until end of life the cars or mine :)

Some of the point raised in the article are a disgrace and I would hope local Governments would take action against such restrictive practices.
Let's also not forget that currently Electric is the big clean energy rage.
There are other alternatives that are probably cleaner and less expensive that
have yet to be fully explored and developed.
Like you, I'll still with what I currently have.

Get out or face our wrath, Anonymous tells big firms in Russia.
https://cybernews.com/news/get-out-or-face-our-wrath-anonymous-tells-big-firms-in-russia/
As you can see from the picture, there are lots of companies
still doing business with Russia. Maybe it's time to boycott those companies
that put profit ahead of decency? 
STOP FUNDING THE KILLING OF INNOCENT PEOPLE.

WYZE - Time for a new Strap?

https://youtu.be/4YKpooxOfbU
The strap is about to break. Ditch the watch or get a new strap?
One of the followers on YouTube just sent me the following message:
"Be warned: Watch out for a Wyze guy!"

Hi Bob, We in UK have suffered Sahara sand being sprinkled on us by southerly winds. Seems to be mixed in with rain and always seems to make a mess of the car immediatly after being washed. If it happened in winter, maybe we would welcome it as self-gritting roads.
