Doing what we can, solar, battery, EV and ASHP, cycle mostly ! Insulated bits of a 1930’s solid wall bungalow and it’s lovely.

Our bills are much less which means we have more money to spend( normally supporting our children and grandchildren 🤷🏼

Petition to stop the sale of allotments.
We have recently taken one over and spent a lot of time and money getting it to where it is now actually producing food, it is a wonderful place full of wildlife. We own it are circulating a petition to oppose this if you are interested.

19.07.2025 12:08 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0We have solar too with battery, EV and heat pump. Zero bills during the summer and export revenue boosts our account for winter. This allows us to have more disposable income ( that we invariably spend supporting our children and grandchildren!)
