Thanks for that,, Gwydion.
Back to petrol...
No shortage in NE UK. But have noticed more cars  driving on electric.
In two minds about electric.... less traffic noise... good... but you can't hear the things coming... bad.

No problems, Mike !  :D
But has it got the curried 'rice crispies' ?

Cheers - Phil. :)

Not as many  as I'd have liked :(

Still, that's an excuse to try some of the others :)

Led Zeppelin? Hah! More like something by Yggdrasil, Wardruna or Danheim.
