Does nobody here wear shirts to work?
My dad went for cumin instead of cinnamon for his apple crumble. Then he finished his whole bowl telling us it's fine. Everyone obviously left theirs.
We've never let him live it down.
It's too hard! Can you tell us?
All true. A few problems facing increasing renewable penetration:
Lack of grid capacity. The national grid operator (REN) has stated there is not enough capacity currently, or in the planned grid expansions, to meet the countries renewable targets.
Rising opposition to projects. Many projects are facing strong local opposition, for example the the 1gw project in Santiago do Cacém which has seen strong resistance from local organisations set up to oppose it.
Environmental protections. They are important and needed, but Portugal has very strong laws here and it is a big obstacle to renewable development.
Cork trees. Cork trees are worshipped, its even difficult to clear sapplings that are of no value or importance. It makes large swathes of land uneconomical for renewable development.
Despite the above, which (except for cork trees) aren't unique to portugal, the country is doing well. It will be interesting to see the stats in the coming dryer years, as you say.
Depends on the definition intended, but other adjectives could probably describe it better.
Yes! I had totally forgotten about the instant pang of shock and anger I would feel when that happened.
Same. 30 odd years later and I still have a mild panic when I enter the sea.
How do I know I'm in tick country?
We have them in the UK. They are equivalent quality coffees to the coffee shop they are branded with.
Not quite as nice as a decent non chain coffee shop and they only use cow milk, but they aren't bad.
I could see 3 out of 4 of them but I'm not colour blind...
If only there was a way to privatise them and get all that sweet investment debt in there. Think of all the dividends!
Not sure I agree with you that it was that bad, but I love the strength of your reaction.
I think plan based is the product line. So anything in that product line won't have animal products in it and is safe for vegans.
Welsh defence was ferocious. Same old game plan, keep the ball in play and defend hard.
Australia look like a team which hasn't built in any direction and they just fell apart as they got more desperate.
I'm not sure players want to play for Eddie either. Not a happy camp.
Approximately how many men did you have to bum before you found the taste of cigarettes awful?
It was horrible to watch. You make sensible suggestions in your post, I just think breed bans are the sort of knee jerk reactions that politicians love because it looks decisive and isn't a difficult decision. Unlikely to achieve anything in the long run, the mastiff in this video isn't even the breed that is getting banned.
The issue needs to be investigated, understood and properly addressed.
I'm not going to get into the dangerous dog breed debate. In my view it isn't a coincidence that there were lots of warnings about the mass breeding and purchase of puppies during covid leading to a lack of socialisation and neglect, and what we are seeing 2 years on.
The dog ownership landscape changed during covid, quicker than any regulation could keep up.
You chose to write it on the internet. I didn't expect you to get upset at a basic question.
All I wanted to know was how they stopped you when other people were allowed to wear political clothing. I'm not implying anything.
