@TUIUK Hi: you will see my message from 24th Dec 2025. I have just received an invoice from you for an increased payment - I have not made any amendments. As per your reply above ‘similarly, we wouldn’t ask you to pay more if it increases’. Please remove the invoice

[Scott Munro @ScottMunro48]

@TUIUK I’ve booked a package deal with you 8 days ago; 2 days ago you reduced the price on sale by 10%. My T&C advise the price can go up or down. Can I attain the discount now offered?

Seen this coming for the last 6 or 7 years. Cost to construct is becoming prohibitive to build in many areas.

[Paul Smith @Paul_SLG]

The Housing Forum says it now costs £240,000 to build a new home (excluding land or profit) - more than prices in 20% of England.

Zoopla says development is unviable in nearly half the country.

Even in London, the market has virtually stopped.

@implausibleblog Houses dont create traffic; People do. People drive cars. Those people already live in the area. Most people move within a 3 mile radius statistically.

"Plug-in hybrids pollute almost as much as petrol cars"

PHEVs:
Consume 5x more fuel & generate 5x more CO2 than manufacturers claim
Emit just 19% less CO2 than regular petrols
When driven in electric mode, still emit 68gCO₂/km

@rich_rdctd Its light - not sunlight that generates solar. So average 'sunlight' is only a part of generation.

@ClaireCoutinho I m no expert but.. Electricity is a flow of energy or power over time. It peaks & troughs in a day/week/month-in 1 aspect feeding batteries - that store & release that energy/power. Stats show this to be a min of 20-50% and upwards of 40-70% depending on time of year?

@Coravin Thank you I will DM - as I cant seem to get them to fit

[Scott Munro @ScottMunro48]

@Coravin hi
I have a Coravin Prfessional Three Pro system. Can it take normal size Coravin pure capsules (21ml)?

[Scott Munro @ScottMunro48]

@Coravin @Coravin Thank you. The Capsule holder seems too big - the normal size capsule just slides inside? I read the pro only takes pro capsules?

The average price of a new EV in the UK is nearly double the cost of a typical petrol car at £22,000 - eh? A typical car in Uk is £11k? You’re having a laugh! https://t.co/u2wZUWgFrs

We’re proud to be supporting Autotrader’s campaign alongside @bvrla and @CoxAutoEurope to counter the myths and help consumers make an informed decision.

Because when it comes to EVs, The Facts matter!

These facts clarify points such as how electric cars are greener, are no more likely to catch fire than an ICE car, and that the electric range and charging point availability are better than some might think.

@OctopusEnergy I am
Seeing several Octopus intelligent go customers being offered a new fixed Go with a bolt on. Is this limited to certain customers. I’m currently in IG

[Scott Munro @ScottMunro48]

@raimonick @OctopusEnergy I’ve. It seen this message rolled out as yet? Hopefully I will get it

[Scott Munro @ScottMunro48]

@paullewismoney Not sure why; but i hazard a guess the reason they don't is lack of competition locally - so they have a captive audience. More competition needs to be introduced = more chargers - considerably more.

[Scott Munro @ScottMunro48]

@NewcastleCC Could you send them down to Melboune St/Tower St - it's a mess down there and has been for months.
