We use a Meaco compressor type dehumidifier in the house. Left on most of the year, but it dosen't do much in the summer. Set to 50% humidity, in autmn/winter/spring it fills about once a day (2.5 litres), probably using 2 to 3 kw/h per day. So probably costing about £200 per year to run as...
One of my friends now uses Starlink and he is very happy with it. But you do need to remember the adapter as Keithmax says! The built in Wifi isn't up to much apparently.

This has reminded me of the V765 form. During the 80s, cars that were off the road had a good chance of falling through the gaps as the DVLA tranferred their databases to new systems. One way that you know your car fell through the gap is if it didn't get a new V5 issued when they changed the...
Thanks Chrisuei. Been looking for welding gas in Cambridge area and your list has been very helpful. I used Motor Parts for SGS gas in the end. Can't see my long term usage justifying a BOC account.
