My day

After several hours during the week clearing and cleaning up a messy garden my day started like this

Absolutely beautiful, lovely colours.

This photo is my great grandfather before he left England, he is the one holding the cat. I guess the lily fetish ran in the family. Photo is very early 1900's

Our HWS has just died why didn't this happen before we bought?

It's 25yrs old so I guess it's use by date was up

Now we need to decide if we will buy a solar HWS and move it into the courtyard or stay with the same HWS in the laundry at the back of the garage.

I changed to solar a few years ago and its saved us a fortune but we are on LPG. Have you considered just changing to an instantaneous?

Oh dear Freddie. What a pain 😞

Haven't thought about it at all Punchy, when we bought we knew it wouldn't be long before we would need a new system of some sought.

I'm not up with HWS, solar and the like, there's only the 2 of us I wonder if it's worth the extra for a solar system?

Darn freddie, Mr B and I were talking about solar hot water recently, I dont want it, for just the 2 of us I cant justify the cost plus I dont want those "things" up on my roof, I don't like the look of them. I miss my gas hot water service, the one here is electric as there is no natural gas here.

Bushy the 2 elderly ladies in the other 2 units here both have solar HWS but no panels on the roof. I wonder what the go is with that??

[freddie*rooster]

If we moved the HWS out into the courtyard that would muck up my plans out there, as it is now the laundry is part of the back part of the garage.

I could be wrong then freddie, maybe they are only used for when a house has total solar. I see them on the roofs around here, each to their own but I dont like the look of them. Maybe check out costs, for us it wouldnt be worth the change over just for hot water.
