    I know others differ, but I get a massive amount from my TV licence. Heck, I probably listen to three or four hours of BBC podcast content a week alone.

    (Yes, I know I don't need a TV licence for that - but it's all paid for by it.)

    In entertainment terms, it's blooming great value for me. Although, as I've said passim, the BBC's funding model is utterly borken in the long term.

    1.5 stop race.

    The safety car is going to help Mercedes, I think.

    I fear the tyres might not last if there's no more safety car incidents.
    They can probably drive to the end from here on the hards.

    Stodge opined that the network was hampered in some places by antiquated track and signalling. It needed investment. Yes, they have been improving it - although not as much as they could - and they could have done more on that issue if it had not been for the stupid electoral bribe of a fare freeze.
    I would head to London Reconnections - from memory the timescales for projects are such that it's only now (in 2021) that projects are being delayed because of the reduced revenue from the fare freeze.
  • It seems to me that Mercedes were under no obligation to pit when they did, were they? And the knew a red flag was a risk.

    It seems they took a gamble and it backfired. Oops.

    As could Max, but Max is now ahead of Lewis.

    To be honest though the obvious play was to do the opposite of whatever the car in front did. You can see why Lewis pitted because previous crashes didn't result in barrier damage red flagging the race.

    Well Max is going lower than Nico in my world champions ranking after this shameless gift.

    Pitting Lewis was obvious. Pitting Valteri was stupid given the bigger picture. Speed of restart does not removely justify a red flag and taints this season even more.

    Frankly Lewis needs to be P1 or make sure they both crash on the first corner of restart, otherwise game over.

    As with the main rail network, there are three main forms of infrastructure investment:
    *) Maintenance. This is the day-to-day maintenance work, the bread-and-butter work.
    *) Renewals. This means renewing life-expired infrastructure.
    *) Enhancements. This is work that adds new capabilities; e.g. a new signalling system, or a new line.

    Maintenance and renewals can be planned and implemented fairly quickly. Enhancements are the things that can take significant time.

  • Good effort (hence the like) but I can assure you that even in America, companies very rarely (if ever) stage their parties on Christmas Eve!

    Everyone else was being told to work from home. For this lot it was apparently essential to work in person. Now we know why.

    I never understand this argument. If you are a big F1 fan, it’s only about £30 a month to subscribe to Sky. That’s like five pints a month for all the sport. I’m not on commission but it seems to me to be a trifling sum so you can actually watch the races/matches.
    1) I'm tight.
    2) It's £30 a month.
    3) I'd rather have five pints.
    4) I don't want to have to spend my Saturday and Sunday afternoons in front of the TV; and if I spent that much, I'd feel the need to get my moneysworth.

    We're reasonably comfortably well off - enough for me not to have to work at the moment. One of the reasons for this is that, although we have a good income, we watch what we spend. We're not too tight - we buy lots of stuff - but we are careful. And before you know, it a subscription to Sky, Netflix, Disney etc gets into real money.

    I've also sort-of grown out of love with F1. I've been watching it since it was first regularly shown on BBC 1 in the late 1970s when I was very young, and there are often better ways for me to spend Sunday afternoon. I used to organise my life so I'd be in on a Sunday afternoon; now I can listen to it if I'm out on a walk or run, or driving. And a Sky subs gets you quali and practice as well, and that's a long time. In addition, the little 'un isn't into it, and gets bored watching it (he's very enlightened).

    When I was on my coastal walk, there was an F1 race when I was on the hillside to the south of Eileen Donan castle in Scotland. I couldn't get radio reception, but I could get mobile reception, so a mate would phone me up to let me know what was happening.

    On the whole currency thing, I think it's widely acknowledged that the proposal to keep the pound was disingenuously sold and very poor politics. The factual point about it being viable in the short term was true, but it was an impossible message to sell to the public. I think the reality was that as soon as independence happened, or possibly even as part of the negotiations, the Scottish government would have pivoted away from that and launched their own currency / gone straight to the Euro if the EU accession fast-track would have been on. As a long term proposal, using the pound wouldn't have worked and I think the people saw through that particular ruse.
    Keeping the monarchy is a different matter. I'm certain the Scottish government wouldn't have moved at all on changing that. I can foresee a future, post-independence campaign for it, but I don't know whether it would really get the traction, and nobody on the mild-republican side of Scottish politics would want to risk their own position fighting a losing battle.

    As for the comments comparing any mainstream UK party with the Nazis, you're clearly an idiot.
    Thank you for what was almost a measured response. 🙂

    Hitler was a Nazi - Not a nationalist? So I can’t make a comparison between SNP and all parties and all politicians who exploit nationalism? Who Wrap them themselves in flags? Wear nationalist glasses?

    If I can’t, I do apologise.

    Truth is Your response to my post goes to the heart of this. This whole separatist push has been founded on nationalists avoiding good scrutiny of their plan by, exploiting nationalism. Critiquing the deceit of Nationalists politicians without the knee jerk response like yours and Union divvies becomes impossible.

    But this is too big to run away from scrutiny.

    Firstly, is not Gordon Brown shoring up his position with British Jobs for British Workers not example of wearing the glasses of Nationalism in the same way as Nicola Sturgeon uses Nationilsm? But each time Nationalism specs are worn, they can be like a steroid to your popular rating, but should not be used to cover up deficiencies, wearing them comes with a cost of stoking division. It’s use is to hide things. Mislead people.

    I think you are smart enough to understand politicians wrap themselves in flags, why and the costs of it. So is it me idiot, or you disingenuous?

    But let’s keep it friendly and simple. I’m not hostile to Scottish independence with crazy thoughts of sending tanks in. Being a Scottish National is just as cool as being a Tyke like I am. And Ireland got freedom from London, and it’s working good for them.

    Just trying to be clear what you are getting into. And if you are being taken into something honestly and know what you are getting. On YouTube is a programme with someone Carrington who set up Zimbabwe system, and he is saying sorry, no wonder it is a disaster we made mess of setting it up. Are we sure we are not seeing similar mistakes in the confusion over post independence wealth ownership?

    This is why it needs these questions answered you are avoiding with the idiot insult - it need answers up front.

    I’m not questioning the product and desire to have it, but sometimes it is the implementation that makes the following disaster.

    This track seems to be about as well designed as the "smart motorway" idea.

    Real shit show to have a lottery track at this stage of the season. No real ontrack action, just a series of dice rolls.

    I know others differ, but I get a massive amount from my TV licence. Heck, I probably listen to three or four hours of BBC podcast content a week alone.

    (Yes, I know I don't need a TV licence for that - but it's all paid for by it.)

    In entertainment terms, it's blooming great value for me. Although, as I've said passim, the BBC's funding model is utterly borken in the long term.
    I haven't watched TV in 5 years; but in my case the license fee is worth it for Radio 3 and Radio 6.

    You don't need a tv licence for radio.

    Um.. you realise you can listen to that stuff without paying for a licence?
