Lambeth Council to Dim Streetlights Amid Financial Turmoil After £25M Climate Spending
Are you trying to pretend ‘Austerity’ was not a key policy of the Tory Government’s commencing with Cameron? If you have a problem with the use of the word wit respect to the fiscal policies of the past 14 years, take it up with Cameron and Osborne, it is they who reintroduced it into national finance planning. -

Is it possible to have a UK Bank account while being tax resident in Thailand?
That may well be on the website, however I have owned my account for over 50 years and my change of address for my account has been notified to RBS over a year ago, I have received mail from them to my Thai address so like many things you read on the internet it is not always true. -

Transgender Fencer Sparks Controversy with Prestigious Win on Women’s Team
That's one way to do it: physical examination. But what about those who have had transgender surgeries and no longer have the genitals that had at birth? And there will be some that have a mix of male/female genitals. What then? -

British mother’s tourist warning after drugs kill daughter in Thailand
The 2 younger ones are out of the equation your thoughts on them make zero difference to their feelings. The story was from a heartbroken mother which unless we have no empathy at all I find pretty unbelievable and sad .The mother is not asking for a go fund me usual nonsense just giving warnings to others to be careful if it saves 1 more parent from going through her plight good for her -

Elon Musk - Genius, future supervillain, or both?
That was my point. He's great at announcing things. He said we were going to be on Mars several years ago and he's not even close. -

Cheap drone recommendations
Wind speed at height should not be underestimated. I have an app on my watch that shows me the local conditions (see photo below). The different coloured arrows show different speed ranges - you tap on one of the arrows to get the displayed speed. The interesting thing about this photo is that it was taken at 06:30 and there was no apparent wind at ground level. The leaves in the trees near me were not moving and tall grass was absolutely stationary. However, I was fascinated by the fact that a Chula kite was flying in a farmer's field near me, and making its characteristic sound (apologies if you live in a city and are unfamiliar with these rural practices). I looked at my watch app and the wind at 320 metres height was 20kph, ample to keep the kite flying (as it had all night). This is why you will invariably get strong wind warnings from your drone at altitude, even though it seemed fine at ground level when you launched.
