nice day but the wind was cutting. v.glad to have had a coat on.

I still get over 15p and from April I'm often still exporting at 4pm. However it's all marginal now as you say, tbh for me it's more about reducing my dependency on the grid as much as possible and use electricity with the confidence that it's not costing me anything.

I meant the ones that sit in the down pipe. I have some that allow enough bits through. Each to their own I guess! I personally wouldn't want to pay when I can do it myself, but as I said I did have the advantage of being able to do it when we have the solar panels fitted.

Yeah lichen is a pain. When we had our solar panels done I spent a weekend on the roof scraping it all off. Better off protecting your gutters IMO but I'm also lazy! :D I suppose if you remove it and then get some gutter protection that might be the best solution? Unfortunately nature always...

This is why I load everything and don't turn it on until later in the day. When I'm in the office I leave by 6am so I can turn everything on remotely. But yeah there will come a point where you just have to accept export or save for a bigger battery!

Pah! Excuses excuses.... :D

3 years of moss free tiles isn't really worthwhile IMO

Actually on the topic can you use drain unblocker or caustic soda type of product down gutters?

Agreed. It just gets bad again after a couple of years even with coatings and so on. However if it's REALLY bad, doing a clean and some maintenance may be with worth it?

Set up timers or use home assistant to make things happen when you're away?

Amazing! Thank you. Love how neat your garage/plant room is! :D You have more than double my system! Very jealous! :p

Ooof. Do you have a pic or your system?

Our primary school doesn't have any other than 2 owing to special circumstances. However they're left in the school office. It's a delight seeing kids play and not on their phones. (I do volunteer work there). They use tablets at school for learning etc... but that's in controlled...

well so far this month Ive earned more than I've spent - which is nice.

Mortgage that's it. But I do use the PayPal pay in 3 quite a bit if that counts. I have a few credit cards but are paid off in full every month (use them for points and cashback etc...). My credit limit is ridiculous but I don't use it as I'm sensible.

I'm not? :confused: I literally said in my post, it's always happened.

It just proves that no matter how safe or open minded or culturally diverse or closed minded a country is, bad **** still happens. People are always going to be the weak point in any system. People snap, get influenced, or just something happens that make them go completely bat **** crazy...

It gets cold for me but again as you say we all have different experiences. What's ironic is I used to play rugby in the winter and didn't mind it too much but there's a bit of bravado there too.

To show that there are idiots out there who like to stir **** when there's far more important (and sad) things going on.

I was wondering what that white glow was! :D
