A little outdated that view, there's been several breakthroughs recently and production cost/ efficiency. The shear convenience of only having a three minute refill time instead of recharging problems etc
I've been in favour of hydrogen for years over electric. Honda had some really interesting ideas and concepts, plus a long term study in california. Mercedes initially looked to be heading into hydrogen over electric then pivoted, but BMW look to have just decided to move more to hydrogen from their electric development...
Does look like batteries are beginning to take a step up though. Should be interesting in the next few years
There's a few factors really, your out of shape comment could be one, no offence meant
If you're pushing your lungs, and airways in general, further than usual, and quite literally stretching them, and faster than they're used to, the extra stretching can cause that feeling.
Lessens as you get fitter.
If its proper cold, or.dry, and if you mostly breathe through your mouth, or both, the air isn't a match for the warm humid like air in your lungs and airways...nose breathing is a big thing to improve your running, there's a great guy whose name I cannot recall who is a massive advocate for nose breathng in runners and how it can massively help your long distance proper too! Includes things about dehydration lessening etc...worth a search for
We swapped our lo-salt as the brand was called for that himalayas pink salt recently, as the missus read a bunch of bumf about the very alleged benefits.
The last couple years on some other site really reduced the amount I commented. I'm not yet out of that initial instinct of just moving on without trying to engage, it just wasn't worth it a lot of the time over there, had mostly positive experiences here though, experience wise.
If you're lucky enough to find something you're passionate about you may not begrudge the work week. I never have, so i work to live, got into a reasonable paying sector, didn't waste money on oversized property or flash motors, as they're not my bag, but used the cash to go adventuring at weekends, snow boarding in winter, the job takes up more time than I'd like but i'm earning freedom tokens. That mentality helped me at least.
Where the fires were was around the North and North East of Scotland. Coal man used to come round in a truck, filthy black from the coal, load up the bunkers. I remember it being very messy, sooty, but it was less smokey than the peat fires, though coal didn't smell as nice.
There is something really nice about a real fire, though they're not clean.
I doubt many of any of those houses have now, gas came along and there was a lot of change.
A lot of homes where I grew up still had coal fires, so yes, a lot, but its been a long while since I have seen a coal fire.
Charcoal as the other commenter said i still see regularly on bbq's

There are ways to lessen the load, gifts can be given before death though you have to live on for seven years or tax is collected, trusts can be set up, if property is left to a spouse or direct descendent, then up to a certain value it's got a nil rate... but its not great
In the UK inheritance tax starts above 325,000 pounds, there's some exceptions that can increase that threshold to 500,000, but generally anything above 325,000 is taxed at 40%.
Yeah, you're spot on with every point there.
I've cancelled my auto renew, as we do use the other benefits of the prime account, but we can and will be using other services from the end of our current subscription.
Chinese takeout was tradition on Christmas every for us from the 70's up till my digestion couldn't take it anymore, fond nostalgic Christmas memories.
Some instant coffee makes a perfectly acceptable coffee like beverage that fits the job, there's no need to ever buy Nestle products though
