On the first Easter morning, Peter and John ran to the tomb, but it was already empty.

So that's two guys who forgot to put their clocks forward 😴

Recent advances in AI are stunning.

I enabled 'facial recognition' on my smartphone...

Raise your hand if you've spent a Sunday afternoon engrossed in your ASHP manuals and documentation, and if your family has a similar reaction:

Witness the rise of a silent giant – the common heat pump! This nature mockumentary, narrated in a David Attenborough-esque style (not by him, naturally), delves into how this technology is phasing out fossil fuel boilers and underscores our responsibility to protect the planet.

So can it be claimed that the heat pump is an 'invasive' species, that if not removed, or at least controlled, could lead to the extinction of the native fossil fuel boiler.

I would be careful about advertising the fact, otherwise you may have 'gas junkies' picketing your home and requesting a cull.

Unless adequately controlled it could devour your bank account. 🙄
