Asking Google & Co for UK results is very frequently flawed Larry. You will likely just get results from England.
"In Scotland, there are ongoing projects for both new reservoir construction and improvements to existing infrastructure. One notable project involves a large hydro-electric scheme at Coire Glas in the Highlands, potentially becoming the biggest in Britain in 40 years. Additionally, Scottish Water is investing in upgrades to existing reservoirs like Camps Reservoir and Milngavie Reservoirs".
It's not uncommon to hear people ranting about the amount of rain we get and demanding to know why they've had hosepipe bans etc imposed. All the water that comes out of our taps has to be treated first. Facilities that treat our water are potentially a bottleneck.
Anyway my friend, "Mafeking has been relieved". Some rain fell overnight. 😃 More forecast. Oh happy day.
Richard, I know you’re busy with your garden, but I need to bring in the big guns for Alleys. I’ve been playing it for a week and my best score is 75 which is not good for a 4 deck game. HELP!
Been playing it too Ken. The waste pile builds up at an alarming rate. Of the 61 I've tackled, some for an hour plus, #1795372671 is the one I'm currently engaged with. Score of 154 with 24 left in waste. Will keep tinkering with it and let you know if I decide it's unwinnable. Definitely belongs in the Very Hard group. Even a 1% rating could be optimistic.
"I couldn't believe my eyes about an hour ago. A WW2 Lancaster bomber flew practically over our house when I was working in the garden. I recognised it immediately as I used to build model aircraft from kits when I was a kid. I just Googled the sighting and discovered it is one of just two of these aircraft still remaining. It was flying across RAF airbases to mark the 80th anniversary of the famous Dambusters raid in 1943".
Oh, and by the way Donald, that was the same year we bombed Pearl Harbour.

If he could tax oxygen, we'd all be broke.
