We usually get things later further up north, and the flora is always later too. I too think the Swifts are here later.

We currently have a racing pigeon which has adopted us, the owner has been contacted and is sending a courier to take it home. I suspect it may be a Volvo pigeon judging by it's navigation system. It was released in France to race home to Chester, it has ended up in Northumberland!

I was in Krakow last week and the main square was full of swifts (or swallows, I always struggle with which is which), swooping around and screaming in the air. Been many times in the summer before and never seen them before. Maybe if there is enough food further south (and East) then there is no need to come to the UK? Or maybe Brexit has put them off.....😉

Swifts probably as in a city they are more likely than swallows.
Swallows have the long forked tail. Swifts shorter forked tail longer wings. Although I am more interested in whether the 'B' cars actually do get better mpg in the real world.

But nothing really changed from the D4 to the B4. You have an extra electrical motor but the diesel engine remains intact.

Yes. If, when the car gets above eight years old, as an example, and the leccy motor or other expensive component fails that is associated with it, then there is surely nothing stopping the car from being driven as a standard diesel D4. Just remove the little battery and disconnect the cables to the motor. It might not be quite that simple but it will be doable I’m sure.

I am sure that I will be corrected if I am wrong. Having said that, I would be delighted to receive a B4 in lieu of a D4 for no extra cost.
