Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Ah, yes, hindsight. Isn't that where everyone becomes an expert at reminding you what you shoulda done, but they've never done it themselves. The council used to be full of them.

Anyway, we are home now. Quick trip. Very windy and extra cold on the way. I've got a chest infection that I inherited from my daughter. Not feeling the best. Hopefully better tomoz.
Cheers

:lol: Speaking of experts after the event. I remember the book writer sprouting that I was only copying the method the Rainbow Power Company published on their website and the whole idea was very basic and not ground breaking ..... but he shut up when asked why he hadn't used it instead of multiple PL60 controllers with his house solar install, and the time stamped photo of my first installation using that method predated the RPC upgrade listing by 6 mths ..... and they got the resistor value wrong :lol: but I was happy to buy any PL20 that the smoke came out of if they attempted to copy the setup RPC listed.
In a private email to RPC, they told me the design setup was not their idea, it was sent to them by someone else that wished to remain anonymous :roll:

Jon, that was back in the work days. The other favourite answer was, 'we've always done it like that'. And achieved the same failed attempt result every time.

Good morning.
19.4. Degrees inside 😁...
Most of yesterday was playing with the shed direction manual... only have to put the roof on and hang the door.
I seem to have lots of screws and little Bolt's left over 🤔

We have friends from Victoria coming through the area today... We are going to catch up over lunch at Biggenden...

We carry both plastic and metal kettles in the motorhome... plastic only gets used if on power... mainly at Elliot heads each January...we have never camped at a showground...
Except for the shed... and going out for lunch... nothing planned 😕
Keep safe.
Bernie.

Good morning everyone. Its 15⁰ outside. Dunno what it is inside yet, the little temp thingo has gone flat battery.
I'm hoping that I've kicked this cold or whatever it is. I woke up in a ball of sweat an hour or so ago.
I'm going to try for a telehealth with the doc today. Might get a bit of unpacking done.
Not much else to report.
Safe travels everybody. Have the best of days.
Cheers

At least your daughter will be well on the way to a full recover ..... everyone knows, the only way to get rid of a cold, is to give it to someone else :lol:
