Its been a rather busy few days leading up to our forthcoming trip to Lanzarote on the 21st as we got involved in helping neighbours with their central heating, solar panels issues and also problems with the contract for the estate management and the method of distributing the costs where the contract we have from the builders solicitors is different for our house compared to others on the estate.
Oh well that's life as they say. So we made the final arrangement about obtaining British Airways boarding passes, checking on passports, cash and of course getting the house ready and closing down all the electrics and gas consuming equipment to save a little cash. Jennifer spent some time trying on dresses and T-shirts to see which fitted, which ones would come on holiday and the rest no doubt consumed to the charity shop.
In the afternoon and neighbour visited and we discusses the current position and usefulness of the solar panels and it becomes obvious that they are really there for decoration, or to comply with local council planning laws, in any case four solar panels fitted incorrectly would hardly generate enough to power to operate a one watt bulb and so clearly something must be done and we will take some follow up action over the next few weeks both with the builder and also the supplier of the equipment. To be of any use we need about 16 panels and there is not room for this and questionable saving when considering the cost of updating the system.
And so then an early evening for a busy day tomorrow.
