The Retirement Thread

It's doesn't make an appreciable difference to our bill. Its a heat pump, and thats a fairly efficient means of shifting heat from one place to another compared to heating air directly.

In the winter if im home alone I run it in reverse as a heater and just keep whichever single floor im on warm (house is a 3 storey job) and its a lot more economical than running the gas central heating.

Although I don't have solar at rhe new Drago Towers (had 5kW so,ar at the old place) im actually spending less on energy as the new gaff is so well insulated and the appliances all modern and efficient, just like me

Thank you, I've never had air conditioning, even when I lived in Aussie

I had it fitted throughout for Mrs D, but that doesnt stop me enjoying it!

The Media are getting in a right tizz about the hot weather - the country is awash with melodrama these days.

Don't recall the same scale of hyperbole in '76.

Decision made, I am just about to load the car up and do a tip run, life is full of these exciting things.

I think they panic if they can’t find things to try and worry Joe Public these days!
