Remember these

Should be our job, as good citizens, to report any differences. I shall follow the governments line on honesty for the time being.

I wonder how many people who have an MCS system fitted, along with a heat meter, find they don't get the payment promised. There are a fair few PV systems that have under performed.

I have made nothing but bad life choices. “Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature. Never try to correct them. On the contrary: rationalize them, understand them thoroughly. After that, it will be possible for you to sublimate them.” ― Salvador Dali

Reminds me of that Black Mirror with the killer robot dogs.

Overflowing gutter maybe. Is there water in the lamp, looks like a large drip on the bottom.

I have a scaffold tower you can rent, pickup and return to Cornwall, bargain at 50 quid a month. Special members price.

Has the mortgage company instructed you to pay off the loan? If not, ask a broker what they think. Also, how much is the car really worth, both in cash terms and utility value. You may be better off getting something cheaper to run around in. Don't overvalue your car, it is just a car, a better one will come along next week.

True. @JSHarrislooked into the cost of fitting proper panels for his walkway on the east of his house. The price was high. Just put some on your garage roof, it is large enough, and I think with a bit of clever design they could become 'fake integrated' and look alright.

Mad idea, there is a lot more to it than just a pot of UHU and a soldering iron. One of the main things about modules is that the cells are in a low oxygen environment. And the glass is different.

I take it you don't use scaffold towers too often.

Tides where set from Newlyn, that is where we get heights from (until GPS came along). Where is the main datum for the UK? Earth moves quite often down here when a mine collapses, or the geothermal boys in St. Day and Penzance are fracking. Also, twice a day, the coast moves quite a bit, and that is before the cliffs collapse.

Yes, but when it is 6 metres tall, with two platforms, on rough ground and a 35 MPH wind, trust me, it wobbles a fair bit.

Depends how it is pronounced. In this case, it is, in effect, milled out, or spindle molded. Routers are a useful tool.

Yes, but it does take a good hour to move a scaffold tower 8 inches along the wall. 10 minute job with two people. But you do get to do all the cooking, cleaning, washing, driving, shopping, etc on your own. And when you go away, you pay extra, so demand double the meals.

Set up a time-lapse camera quick.

How many of us, who live alone, feel the need for dishwasher, or other kitchen clutter, for that matter?

Thanks. Looks similar to what my parents house had back in the early 1980s. They worked well.

Can you get the front of the consumer unit off without removing the cupboard?

Any chance of a picture of them. I want external sound, wind, rain and light proofing blinds as my house faces the SW, so gets all the Atlantic weather. And I have a neighbour that sometimes goes to work at 3AM.

Not such a stupid idea, in a way. You could you that large tin roof to heat an evaporative cooler. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

Welcome. With that much glasing I think you are going to need air conditioning. Have you had all the thermal calculations done yet?

WTF did you use to take that picture with, your doorbell.

Isn't it more financial sustainability as far as councils are concerned. Oh I wish they would bring the community charge back in, would make life so much easier.

Welcome I have a cousin that lives in Wallingford, never been to visit him at home though. So when you say you want to design to PassivHaus principles, which ones are you after? The whole thing except the certification, or more of a A la carte approach?
