@Christine Walker Sounds confusing, but really much simpler. One rate on every single penny you earn. Only thing to argue about then is the rate.

Getting back on topic to house building. The first cut is the deepest. Baby I know.

All this is why I think we should just tax on income. A house sale would be considered income.

Usually, if something is perceived to be a problem, it is best to get rid of it. What they should do with stamp duty. Or just rationalise it so that every sale is liable. It is really the 'half measures' i.e. where it applies to some properties and not others, some areas are except for a time, Like almost everything in our tax system, it is a pigs ear.

Do it, and have a pack of EverReady batteries on a saucer, instead of biscuits. I like taking the biscuit.

They may be claiming the FiTs and then giving it back, minus a cut, as part of the sharing deal. Similar to what 'Roof for Rent' schemes did. They allowed you to self consume as much as you could because they were getting the 41p/kWh, plus all the 50% deemed export regardless. Like any decentralised system, it needs a critical mass of compliant consumers.

Go to their website, it is horrible and disruptive. I suspect they are going to be another supplier that is not about long.

EDF do E7. For years they have been my best provider, but recently they have been one of the most expensive. This may change as the wholesale price has dropped. I know someone that just fixed his price with one of the smaller companies (can't remember who), then found out that he could have saved 20% by going to EDF. My problem is that I cannot save a vast amount as I am a low user, and I like quarterly billing. So stuck with standard tariffs after a misreading that left me with £90 bank charges.

Thought it was going to end up the the Derek and Clive sketch about the worse job they ever had.

WPD (DNO) stepped in to takeover the domestic metering at one stage, think the company doing it pulled out the market. I don't know if they physically fitted the meters. Last year I noticed that Morrisons (not the supermarket) was reading the meters. So there may be cases where the DNO does fit the meter,

Unless you can divert to batteries/cars. Though in summer you will still loose a lot with a 9 kWp system.

First one looks like the ones I have had for 20 years. If I remember, I shall dig them out and measure them. I use them to wash the car roof.

Will it be as secure as TOR, or a blockchain. Both of those seem to have serious vulnerabilities now (was something in The Register about it)

Are you not concerned about the health risks. A 10 quid panel heater would be better, and probably cheaper to run.

That is why they need to pay a third party to 'rapid age' the product. Rapid aging does not have to be expensive, used to do it on my steam rooms. Shame that my old boss, who should have known better, decided to change materials without telling anyone, leading to multiple 'unexplained' failures. It is why we have quality assurance paperwork, it is not to raise the quality, but rather to find out why quality has dropped. They don't tellingly that in the books.

How long should a water cylinder last, mine managed 31 years. One of my neighbours has never changed his, so that is now 32 years old. And these are basic E7 Cooper cylinders, nothing fancy, just a bucket with very soft water in then. What are the chances a SA will last that long? Mind you, I do loose 10p a day through heat loss. So £1130 heating up the house, whether I want it to it not.

Depending on the house construction type, could you not incorporate the shadow gaps into the plaster boarding, then you get your service void as well. Could make the lower edge out of extruded aluminium angle. That would take a decent bashing from an upright vacuum cleaner. If I think about it a bit more, you could also 'hide ' a ventilation and maybe heat recovert/heating system in it. Walls are often a wasted space, why we push furniture up to them, fit shelves and hang pictures on them. They need to be utilised a lot more. Mind you, I live in a tiny house, all space is at a premium.

Shadow gaps. Could fit some fancy lights in them. But that is just silly.

The humidity does not affect the temperature, just how you perceive it. Temperature is really just how fast the molecules are moving when unhindered. There is often a confusion when using the term 'heat'. To some it means temperature, but really it means energy. We now use energy as the standard term.

There was a confirmed case cause by the airconditioning unit installed at the shopping centre in Aylesbury. Think it killed one person. I used to go for a coffee there, but had to stand by the unserviced unit to have a fag. Strange how it gets some people and not others. The bacteria is often present in water, where it is quite benign, only when it is atomized into a mist, and at the right temperature, and then is breathed in by a susceptible person that it is a problems. I don't think those conditions exist in a domestic shower.

Have stored my DHW at 50°C in my old fashioned, vented system, with F&E tank in loft, for over a decade.

May get a mug of tea more like. And not from Sam, or her Dad Joe. I always find it strange that 'celebrities' live alongside 'normal' people. Quite a few have places down here and just seem to blend into the background.
