With missiles and modules rolling off the production line I mention my proclivity to buy what I need locally. Rather than jump to a nearby system to save a bit of ISK I will pay slightly more for the convenience of being able to stay in the station, from ...

The M1 carriageway widening between junctions six and ten has been completed, opening on time at the end of last month. For over two-and-a-half years my daily commute to work was beset with ten miles of roadworks, reduced speed limits, and regular traffic jams, but now it has all ...
