  1. Then I can show you my indoor garden
  2. There is two schools of thought here: If they grew well last year, they will grow well this year Don't plant the same thing in the same spot. There is a number of reasons for the second one, usually involving contamination. This year I have planted stuff in containers, but kept them indoors. Potatoes, onions and some chillies (I have no luck with these at all). Shall wee what happens.
  3. Friend of mine had a small flat in South London. She wanted to convert the garage space into a tiny studio flat. I suggested that she buy a camper van. She did and when friends stayed, she used the camper. When friends where not staying, she often went of exploring.
  4. Only 3 things to check really. The k-value, the moisture absorbency and the compression deflection/strength.
  5. One day I want to see the same car win every round. Nearly got there with the one car I had a minor involvement with in 1988.
  6. While taking away his drill, long crosshead screwdriver and Stanley knife. Of all the trades, electricians should understand resistance and insulation best.
  7. Have down here on the North Coast. About 12 years ago a load of houses where built in St. Agnes, most have ASHPs.
  8. Real fire tonight then.
  9. You could make your own cheap meter. https://forum.buildhub.org.uk/blogs/entry/946-the-energy-meter-experiment/
  10. 0.18 [W.m-2.K-1] x 90 [m2] x 20 [ΔT] = 324 W Have you got a factor of ten error somewhere? (I know that is just the floor, but it is to highlight the possibility of an error)
  11. Or the radiators are the wrong size.
  12. I can get half hourly data from EDF. I would be surprised if it cannot be got in France.
  13. It is a slow day, everyone is stuck at the A30 roadwork between Carland Cross and Chiverton. Keep quiet about the £8m from the EU.
  14. There is probably less suitable roofs than we imagine.
  15. No it isn't W is power, not w. But anyway, if you break down 250 W/h, you get 250 J.s-1.3600 s-1 which is 0.0964 J, or the force needed to move 10 grams, 1 metre. Again, not, kW is power, kWh is energy. If your weekend power was 7 kW, your energy usage would be 168 kWh.
  16. Because it is a positive multiplier G = giga = 109 So all the little stuff is lower case, like centi and milli, with, oddly enough 10-9 not starting with a g, but with an n, for nano, but all the big stuff is upper case. That just leaves bits and bytes. I think they are b and B, but the telcos like to big up their service by claiming that 50 Mb/s is 50 MB/s, 8 times faster.
  17. Those ASMR mp3s you keep sending out should 'fill in the gaps'
  18. Just making sure it is not a pure resistance load that is being drawn.
  19. Did Princess Kate do any work on it?
