@sarah_go_green I was just there, midges must have been on holiday somewhere other than Ayr, Glasgow and where we were staying near Doune 🙂 And it did rain a bit most days, a lot on one and blazing sunshine on another, you'll be fine - light layers with a waterproof close to hand!
@Co_wheels@GlasgowCC Train from Oxfordshire to Newcastle and Co-Wheels from there went so well this month, I'm eyeing another train and Co-Wheels combo via Glasgow if plans for a trip to Scotland come together this summer 🙂💚🚙⚡️
@techpoodle If you swear hard enough at Alexa, she exclaims she doesn't think she's met you before and asks if you'd like to set up a new profile. I'm only surprised this hasn't happened more than once.
@1PlanetAbingdon Ah, I see - is it possible for you to make a direct link to voting for you? The one above didn't work for me but I'm keen to help you be in the running!
@bigredcar1@sarah_go_green@OctopusEnergy@power_vault Nice! I was nervous about the lack of consistent cheap block to charge home battery, especially in colder months when heat pump working hardest. Do you think you're Agile for the foreseeable now? If it worked for you in Dec I guess not a switch away for winter!
Taken the plunge and switched to @OctopusEnergy Agile before the standing charges go up 1 April. Let's see how this goes! Thanks for the nudge @sarah_go_green. I'm even giving @power_vault's algorithm another chance to impress me out of micro-managing the schedules myself 😁⚡️🔋
@sarah_go_green@OctopusEnergy 'Charge' the swimming pool too, if it's heated? Like a hit water cylinder on a massive scale, set it to do its heating in cheap periods of Agile/flux/whatever tariff with dips they qualify for!
