Sainsbury's have emailed me at 3pm today to tell me from the start of today (nice notice period) I will need an app to get 'normal' prices, and if not pay artificially high non nectar prices. Nice.

Two weather apps, two very different summaries (though both predict a chance of rain but represent it differently), luckily this is from a few days ago and I can report the met office's more positive predictions were right

To add to this, the other source of monthly new UK car data has now been released, SMMT, www.smmt.co.uk/vehicle-data... if you click on the top models Feb 2025 tab you will see Tesla in second and third spot for top new cars. Not good!
