  1. And then leave a nice gift ?
  2. Perfect space for a small secure punishment room for unruly guests .
  3. I fitted mine ? It is pretty straightforward
  4. I told admin many years ago I could build an underground house . They scoffed but threw tons of money at me to provide content . Everyone can be bought !
  5. One of my all time favourite g spots
  6. @SteamyTea I read all of that ... not ?
  7. I remember when wind turbines at sea were first being installed - the cost was insane . But economics of scale and refined technology makes them a good investment. I do wonder when the next leap in PV efficiency will occur ? ( what are we at 20% in real world situation ? ) . Hydrogen might have its day for replacing the gas combi , but infrastructure and production costs prohibit that currently. Agree with @ProDave most old housing stock is crap . I really struggle to get my rentals to a ‘C’ and that’s after spending considerable sums ( new double glazing , new roof with insulation) but only because the law will / does force me . Private owners in older housing have no real incentive. The cost of work against the saving is negligible. It’s certainly a tricky one !
  8. No worries! . I’m not trying to convince anyone to do it . But once I have a years worth of “ real world “ data it will be really interesting!
  9. Once we live on site properly I’ll give someone like @SteamyTea ( or anyone else ) a years worth of data . Remember have an EV aswell so effectively another battery to dump excess in
  10. No . Tesla lite tariff . 11p import and 11p export no standing charge . FiT just isn’t worth it now . Looks like ( apart from filling the battery , so that’s 13.5kw to use ) I might make £1 today ??
  11. Boom ! ?
  12. Why no payment? I’m on an export tariff - they haven’t set it up properly yet but I’ll be credited.
  13. Battery full Car charged Supporting you lot now ! ?
  14. I’m the same except it took nearly a decade to fit 2
  15. “ and even “ ! Wtf that meant to mean ?
  16. Can’t say which is better ( if any ) 2 x Geberit installed . The only thing I didn’t like were the support bolts wobble which wasn’t reassuring. Other than that both are still attached to the wall !
  17. I know !! ?
  18. Yeah I’ve got 50 . But looking at this I might need 100’s !!
  19. No the feet are meant to just sit there . The weight of blocks holds them in place . One problem might be the amount of feet I need and hence cost ....
  20. Proof of concept ?
  21. There’s 2 sumps lower than the concrete so everything runs into there . I want the paving to be level with the doorway . Could put a slot drain in . But it’s all more work ! ?
  22. Yeah I did think about something like that . 3 sides are already ‘retained ‘ ( concrete wall ) . So it is possible. I liked the stilts approach because it allowed drainage and also “ seemed “ like less work . I have stilts and blocks on site - so cost would be zero ( ish ) . Going to site today will take another look ?
  23. SWMBO forcing me to watch the sound of music - which I’ve never watched . I’m upset for many reasons now
