When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. All of the pain is felt by others. The same thing happens when you are stupid.

I commute past this new charging station every day - Winnersh Moat House Hotel - and was wondering why they built it there. The site floods without fail every year from the River Loddon. I remember thinking it was a stupid location when there were building it, only got it finished in Nov 2019 and then it flooded on Christmas eve six weeks later.
Who ever put that project into fruition deserves a medal for choosing the worst spot possible...!2022 BMW i4 M50. Bought Oct 2022. 10,200 miles and counting...
2014 BMW 435d convertible. Bought July 2021. 58,000 miles and counting...
2005 Discovery 3 HSE Auto. Bought Feb 2019. 169,000 miles and counting...
2009 Freelander 2 XS Manual. Bought Sep 2013. SOLD Aug 2021 (already regretted!)
Are you sure its not meant to be like that? The charging stations might be water cooled, or for the soon to be announced Tesla boat.Am I Gammon or Woke ? - I neither know nor care.
