I was on Windows 7 too but it got so slow, we now have a chrome book it's super for most things , not compatible with the on line GP booking system tho. 🙁
I forget that Welsh regs are different to English regs. The Welsh regulations update will come in 2023 but I think England are still dragging their heels and have promised it before 2025 with an interim upgrade to energy efficiency requirements next year. It's all for stuff that should have been brought in 10 years ago but expect heat pumps and solar panels to become the norm on new houses now.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Should have a special thread for I hate my car. It wouldn't start on Friday when I needed to cart some stuff into the centre of town for the lights-switch on so had to cadge a lift with it all. SIL took the battery and recharged it and so used to car to drive a v.short distance to meet him and my daughter for a birthday meal. That followed a walk for the latter part of which we were pelted with hailstones. Returned to the car to change out of my wellies - wouldn't open. Battery in key fob flat. A local shop has now replaced the batteries but said the battery shouldn't keep going flat - could it be the alternator? Messaged SIL (who sold me the car) with this idea but he tells me that he put a new one in before selling it to me and what I have to accept is that I simply don't drive it enough. I have to drive at least 30 miles once a week to keep the battery charged. My lifestyle is lots of short trips to towns within 10 miles of here, quick dashes into and around town transporting various things and just the occasional longer journey. I have no idea what to do about this and keep thinking I'll get another car like my beloved old Ford Focus and ditch this beast of a Honda. But SIL says all modern cars are the same and I simply should drive more.
I’m sorry @didyw but I don’t think that’s right. I know lots of folk with modern cars (including Hondas) who do just the sort of short trips that you and I do …. their batteries don’t keep going flat. It does sound to me like an alternator problem … think I said that before? Maybe the one that wax fitted was faulty?
