BBC unveils restored controversial Eric Gill statue The statue has been restored after a member of the public attacked it with a hammer.

I find it unbelievable that the BBC has restored this artwork created by a self confessed peadophile. It cost £529000 to restore; that's 3000 licence fees. It's wrong & should be taken down.

I love it when it's sunny, what a fantastic smooth generation curve! ☀️☀️☀️☀️

We had a really productive solar day yesterday. I'm pretty sure it's the best so far this year ☀️😁🔋🚗☀️😁🔋🚗

So yesterday we generated twice the amount we imported from the grid. Another step closer to our Summer independence from the grid. #ZeroStandingCharge

2nd day of 2025 where we've generated more than we've imported ☀️☀️☀️☀️

It's amazing what a difference 28 days makes to our solar production ☀️☀️☀️

The two small people in the family are very pleased the conservatory is back in use 😻😻😻

I was playing with our house battery app; from a company I won't name & won't buy anything more. So I found an interesting info graphic. ☀️☀️☀️🔋🔋🔋
