Posted on 01/01/2018 03:02 byYou might lose your customers if you did take that view, EasyT. Lancing Fruit Farm charges £12 a night which is £84 per week. That's three-quarters of my pay from Pizza Hut! If the fee went higher, I would need to move elsewhere.

In the winter a fair chunk of the £12 you are paying them will go on electricity. They probably rely on the warmer months to make it pay and you want to deprive them of that. If a site becomes uneconomic it will close. For them to subsidise your employment would be pointless. Perhaps it would be better for Pizza Hut to pay their drivers a realistic delivery fee.

Posted on 01/01/2018 08:21 by brueJust listening to radio 4 about China not wanting any more of our waste plastics and the attempt to stop single use plastics. The club has an advert with a plastic straw in use. I suspect China exports quite a bit of cheap plastic to us but they don't want it back.

Posted on 01/01/2018 09:22 by brueIt wasn't relevant at all.

Maybe not but your comments about EVs are relevant seeing that you own and use one yourself. I hope the sceptics on here have listened to what you said as they keep expressing concerns and thinking that we should all continue to buy petrol and diesel vehicles!

The smart EV are advertised or recommended for now as a city / urban car so until it can cope with rural driving, hills and mountains, enough battery power to cope with lights, wipers and heating at the same time then it's pointless buying one, and my Tesco Credit card will remain in my purse.

Posted on 01/01/2018 09:31 by brueThat is also irrelevant.
Easy T I think Penzance is going plastic straw-less, I'm surprised the club has a gent with a plastic straw as an advert....
I can't find it now...of course...

Aberporth in Cardiganshire as a town are shopping the use of plastic in their businesses. Will try and find a link.

It's relevant to me, brue. Nothing frustrates me more than tin openers that don't work. OK, you may say that if it doesn't work take it back to the shop where you bought it but what use is that? They'll either offer to exchange it for another one that also doesn't work or offer you your money back. Either way, you'll end up not being able to open your tin of mushy peas!
