Ah yes, I remember now, I got kicked off the Twitter platform (their patience wore thin & they wanted more personal data) ..primarily they wanted the mobile phone number associated with the account (their was not one, ..& I used Twitter exclusively on kindles, not phones.

They badgered me for over a year then In a moment of anguish at trumps perks-stupid platform posturing causing massive problems in 'Merica I thought aloud / write something questioning why he hadn't been taken out yet (bearing in mind the gun proliferation in the states)

For that my account was locked pending full inclusion of the phone number ...which you don't need to create an account, so rather than hoop jump I quietly faded away after maybe 9 years on the platform & binned likely due to algorithms deeming accounts that rejected advert data scraping & the likes "fake" despite evidence to the contrary.

Your account has clearly changed a lot since back in the day dan.

I plugged my UK Tesla universal charger into a UK 3 pin extension block which I had swapped the UK plug for a French one. Limited the charging current to 8A to reduce risk of getting too hot. Not the best but it worked.
