20 year old me just got a little bit excited. 40-odd year old me is sad that he's never going to fit back into his leather trench coat.

You're not wrong, that grass is far too green.

I moved into a new build property just before winter. ASHP, hot water tank, solar panels and under floor heating. There were some teething problems with a frozen pipe, but that was due to an imbalanced feedback valve. Since that was solved I've had no problem with the system.

Ask me for an update after this winter and the system is a year old.

We made it... and we can break it just as easily!

I'm certain that I'm not the only one who reads headlines like this and thinks "good for them, let's not go ruining it for the locals shall we"

The problem with "moral" problems is, who sets the morals? The church has been setting them for years, but they are now regarded as outdated and, to be frank, not a shining example of good "morality".
