Your Day (apart from gardening) - what took place? 2023

Thank you Victoria,the snow scene is getting bigger every year, yours looks great.

 

Thank you too Logan. He will get his trees out and up tomorrow as he does that on the 6th, St Nicolas Day.

 

Love to see a pic of those Victoria.

 

That's great news, take it easy for a while don't overdo it and be careful in the bath, although you've probably had it by now.

 

A friend and I went to see Napoleon this afternoon.

I don't know enough of the history of that era to know how accurate it was historically as it had been questioned in some reviews. Nevertheless it was very good and gave an insight to his relationship with Josephine, who he had to begrudgingly divorce due to her inability to bear children....and he needed an heir. He never stopped loving her and kept in contact with her.
My friend and I did have to shield our eyes at the beheading and very bloody battle scenes that showed the gory demise of both soldiers and horses!!

 

They didn't go into that part of his life too much that was just where the film ended. It was centred on his active years and on his marriage more.

 

I heard he was killed by the wallpaper.

 

Probably Rumours and all different.

 

Lurned something new today.

Wales generated an estimated 38.8 TWh of electricity and consumed approximately 16.1 TWh. Wales is, therefore, a net exporter of electricity.

Yet, we pay the highest standing charges. Whats that all about...

 

Same as Scotland.
If you have low population per area, it will always be the same, distribution is more difficult.
I'm sure places like Cumbria feel the same, but it all goes into the grid.

 

One of the North Wales MS's is having a funny turn in the local press about high standing charges. He says that a millionaire in London pays £70 less than Joe Bloggs in North Wales. Sometimes - life is not fair....

 

I'd like to point out that not everyone in London or the S.E. for that matter are millionaires
I know a lot of Joe Bloggss', cant remember the last time I met a millionaire.
