To Norbiton For A Plate Of Lovely Liver
I seem to need a lot of Vitamin B12.
- I am coeliac, which probably means I don’t absorb enough out of my food.
- Although, when my gallstones were removed, the surgeon had a look and said everything was good.
- When Homerton Hospital found my Uncomplicated Pancolonic Diverticular Disease, that I talked about in I’ve Got Uncomplicated Pancolonic Diverticular Disease, they also said everything else was good.
- In the United States, Vitamin B12 is given to stroke patients to help recovery.
- I’ve had Vitamin B12 injections for nearly thirty years, since they were prescribed by Addenbrooke’s hospital.
Certainly, I find that a Vitamin B12 injection doesn’t seem to have the same effect, it had twenty years ago. So, is my brain saying, I’ll have that, when I have an injection?
When I lived in Suffolk and I felt my Vitamin B12 was low, I’d go down the pub or carluccio’s in Cambridge or Bury and have a plate of liver.
But liver is rare in London restaurants and Carluccio’s don’t serve it any more.
A guy in the reader’s comments in The Times told me of a restaurant called the Trattoria Calabrese, that sold liver in sage butter yesterday. So today, I took a train to Norbiton to get myself some extra Vitamin B12.
These pictures describe my first visit to Norbiton.
The short walk to the restaurant from Norbiton station was very much worth it. I shall go back!
Norway Drops Fixed-Bottom Offshore Wind Plans, Shifts Focus To Floating Wind
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on offshoreWIND.biz.
This is the sub-heading.
The Norwegian government has cancelled plans for another fixed-bottom offshore wind tender in the North Sea due to cost concerns, shifting its focus toward developing floating offshore wind projects.
As cost concerns are mentioned in the sub-heading, I suspect that quite a few people are surprised that floating wind is cheaper with all its complications.
But we do know the following.
- Floating wind farms seem to generate electricity with a higher capacity factor.
- Floating wind farms may be cheaper to assemble and service, as this can be carried out in a port with a crane, which may be less susceptible to random disturbance caused by weather.
- Floating wind farms can be placed in deeper waters, which may be better areas for electricity generation.
- Floating wind farms can be placed further out to sea, so Nimbys don’t object to them as much, causing extra costs.
Accountants and financiers will always prefer lower-cost options.
Platform 10 At Clapham Junction Station
These pictures show the step into and out of the Class 455 trains at Platform 10 at Clapham Junction station.
Note.
- Platform 10 at Clapham Junction station is markedly curved with a wide gap to mind!
- There is also quiet a high step up and down.
- The last two pictures, show the safer design at Platform 3 at Dalston Junction station.
On my last two visits to Clapham Junction, I have had to be helped out of the train. None of us, are getting any younger.
