@cdprice86 @enappsys @OctopusEnergy They already do this - it’s called ‘Octopus PowerUps’ (though it’s not nationwide, only a couple of regions.) great though as we get day ahead notice of a session and they advise a (generally) 2-3 hour period where all electricity is completely free. Gets credited back to us.

Nothing much surprises me these days but if I had to guess where I would first see the #Auroraborealis I don’t think I would have chosen a holiday park on the #Essex coast!
Saved a flight to Iceland I guess!
#aurora #NorthernLights
Absolutely stunning.

[Chris Postill @StumblingTrout]

@g__j @OctopusEnergy The API is amazing, but please add PowerUps in the same way you have done with Saving Sessions!

@scottiebateman @iAmAlaska49 That’s a shame, I’ve flown LHR>SAN twice in the past couple of months for work and really enjoyed the A35K, it’s a nice new aircraft with a modern, quiet cabin and we had great service. Good news for twice daily service though I guess - all my flights were full so not surprised.

@joe606 This is probably an EV. Drum brakes are making somewhat of a resurgence as they apparently make sense on EV’s - there are few articles, such as: https://t.co/lMCXw0eiEy

@gotravelyourway I thought this was @RAF_Luton posting until I realised this wasn’t photographed from a Canberra.

@mono_guerillo @DartCharge @transportgovuk Does the payment show on your account? And are you on the new system? Apparently I have an apology letter in the post from DART after their investigation - but it took 4 months to sort. My initial appeal was rejected despite submitting evidence from the DART account itself. Mad.

[Chris Postill @StumblingTrout]

Has anyone else suffered the incompetence of the new Dartford Crossing @DartCharge system? Beyond funny at this point.
@transportgovuk - being threatened with bailiffs isn't funny when I've done nothing wrong and you seemingly don't have the capability to correct mistakes...

[Chris Postill @StumblingTrout]

@scottiebateman @ItsTomLynch @Vanillapilotlhr Yeah it’s not the biggest - but it should be good as a company hack. The performance stats look fun too. VW Touareg remains in the family for Kids, Dogs & Towing!
Looking forward to trying out the new Google powered infotainment too. XC90 had the previous Volvo powered one.

[Chris Postill @StumblingTrout]

@scottiebateman @ItsTomLynch Had a 2017 XC90 until wife’s new company car forced sale - it was a sad day. Boot was enormous it was endlessly practical and held the road incredibly well for a car of its size. Have an XC40 Recharge Twin arriving this week - can’t wait to welcome a Volvo back on the driveway.

@BassicallyPaul Isn’t the B52 the only aircraft that has swivelling landing gear that allow it to land in a crab when there is a strong cross wind? I was hoping to see a demonstration of that! 🦀✈️

[Chris Postill @StumblingTrout]

Given the disastrous forecast, we saw much more than we expected to at #RIAT2023 - some great displays - like this one courtesy of the Luftwaffe. Shame the B52 and ME262 didn’t fly… hopefully next year!! & Hope tomorrow holds out for those with Sunday tickets. #aviation #RIAT
