We're about half way through may. I was thinking often that an EV car finance package that costs the same as my fuel is worth getting, especially if the deal comes with after care; free repairs and servicing. If you fill your tank every week, you would pay £200 per month for fuel. The trouble is there is no such deal. Perhaps Tesla will make a budget hatch-back city car with no AI for ordinary people like myself. I wouldn't mind if it only had a 20 killowatt-hour battery, I would just charge it up more often. If the AI driver made the car more expensive, why not have a model without it?
I was also thinking about the queen because the Platinum Jubilee is a few weeks away. If the queen announced that she will abdicate the throne during the celebration, I wouldn't be surprised. I feel like she is at the end of her rope, moving around is very painful, she lost her husband last year and there is a lot of bad press aimed at the royal family. I imagined the queen saying she will abdicate the throne during a speech. Perhaps she already wanted to step down but kept going because this significant milestone was near. Perhaps prince Charles will be king very soon. I don't think he will be on the throne for 70 years though, maybe half that time, 35 years perhaps?
I am also thinking that many diseases are worse than COVID 19 and they can find a way to infect us, they probably will but we may make the same mistakes again, we would let the disease spread around the world and then upset the global economy by quarantining everyone frivolously.
I was also keeping an eye on the fleet of robots working throughout the solar system to discover new things. A nice way to clear your head in my view.
