@Jeremy Harris Is the high number of shallow wells/boreholes (0 - 10m) what farmers use for irrigation, rather than for filling toughs?

As an accountant, how many other cracks are there? Have heard that if a company that is paying their staff 80% of wage and they do any trading, they loose it all. Have also heard that it is only available to full time employees. Could be back to 1970's crazy paving and income tax levels.

Condensation maybe. Nights have been cold. Wind direction maybe. Been Easterlies, a relatively rare direction. Get it GRP'd properly. Problem solved for ever.

Cheaper to use regular modules and a cheap inverter. Less Volts, More Amps, Bigger Switches.

PV is the easier and probably cheaper option. Could even charge a battery and run your lights off it.

I can think up some thing that are so bad I can only say them in BSL.

Had a girlfriend that was a nurse, she did it the other way around. Not long after I had retiled her bathroom. Dirty girl.

Was it Sheffield University https://www.solar.sheffield.ac.uk/pvlive/ Gridwatch has some PV data, not sure if it is live or calculated though demand drop.

Think his name was Martin.

Going to be an interesting experiment as both @Jeremy Harris's and @DavidHughes' houses are similar. Kind of thing that is needed.

That's good enough for me. If I did get a borehole I would be using it for everything except drinking water, with my bathing being the biggest usage. My water has gone up in price, but my electricity has gone down in price again.

Out of interest, do you meter how much water you actually use? I am still half minded to get a borehole, though my largest expense is the sewage, and that would be the same as no room to fit a treatment plant.

That lot probably costs more than the value of what is stolen. My house in Weymouth got broken into, the value of the damage to the property was 30 times greater than the value of what was stolen.

This is old news, been hearing it for nearly 20 years. But like the resurgent HDR companies that promise unlimited, carbon free energy. The only one I know that is close to completion is the Jubilee Pool, and they have changed that to a heat pump.

I live in a deprived area, I never mix with the neighbours, they tend to be morons that think the local tin mine is going to reopen. But i do have 3 supermarkets, a Poundland, B&Q and a Halfords all within easy walking distance. And McDonalds, KFC, Subway and Costa. So apart from culture, I have what I need, almost. Now if I lived in St. Ives, I could get the culture, and they have a gun shop in the high street.

And Alchemy, which he spent the majority of his research life on.

Or store it with the Ark of the Covenant.

@Stones You going to close this one as it is similar?

Is this about the gobby ex copper.

I will ignore the K in kW. But temperatures should really be in K, not °k or anything similar. But to get a bit statistical about it, the savings come come from the difference in the heating degree days, not the relative readings. This is why a small change in internal temperature can make a large difference at the higher end of the scale.

@Tennentslager Can you copy and paste the article as it behind a paywall.

I don't think we stack up too well on some of then, even today, and a few decades ago were had horrendous work practices. Seabed dredging for minerals probably has the lowest long term environmental impact, mines around here are still polluting the place, or take constant maintenance, 30+ years after they closed. You hardly see an 'old miner' these days, most have died prematurely, usually from asbestos. St. Austell still has a lung cancer problem which they think is linked to the clay works. Some of them are still producing.
