Just found out that the battery in my key fob needs replacing, had to get in by using the key. A bit worried that the ignition wouldn't work. Discovered that I don't have a spare CR2032 or near size battery, the CR2032 battery in my daughter's Focus key fob I've been looking after for 4 years appears to be dead as well as that didn't work when put into my key fob.
I will be walking or on the bus to the shops in the morning.
@George322 just as well you didn't need to take me up on my offer, mind you I could have found out a bit sooner :laughing:

New battery inserted and tested, normal service has been resumed. Ignition key worked fine first thing this morning, I didn't push the ignition barrell hard enough before turning the key.

Get the fob battery changed at a main dealer, they will use specially trained Nissan technicians who will do a better job. Book it in and if they can't fit you in for a week or so, don't use the car. It'll be worth it in the end to have it changed at a main dealership.

If this is advice then it's to late and I would have ignored it.
If it's humour then 😂😂😂😂😂.
 
Just WTF is going on where Retailer X etc will sell you electric scooters you can't legally use, LED replacement bulbs that aren't actually road legal and insurance companies can pluck 4 digit figures for renewal that triples your costs?
Potholes are multiplying like rabbits and, quelle surprise, the garages have just added an extra 2p per litre last night. How the nearest Texaco station stays in business at 10p per litre more than Tesco and Morrisons, even Shell who they manage to charge more than....
Seriously just had a conversation about going down to 1 car.
And tpmtop of it all off, I get to waste several hours fighting my way up toe the lakes along with world plus dog tomorrow.
Deep Joy.

Why does it seem EVERYONE in literally all businesses are doing this

((259.79-134.76)/(134.76)) X 100 = 93% increase :eek:

Is the rate of inflation 93%
Nuts
 
Don't want to go into politics, but this IS a massive result of Covid lockdowns.
Totally shutting down the world's economy for months on end, only partially re-opening certain sectors for months on end, literally the world over, whom are all interlinked.
I wonder if hardly any of these inflation generated (and taking the P) price rises would have occurred if the world's economy wasn't shut down/or partially shut down for 1-2 years.
