To show her "variables"

There is no variable other than the "quote" I left the slider on. (have been searching for it for days) as I wanted to buy some then more later as part of a managed purchase.
Its a forecasted 1.71 kWh generation per year for each £1 of investment which is probably more useful that trying to work out how many watts you need.

Each watt costs about £1.85
18.7kW PV > 109MWh generated
Ripple 6.6kW Wind + 4.5kW PV > 26MWh generated
5 Other RE Coop's
105kWh EV storage
60kWh Home battery storage
40kWh Thermal storage
GSHP + A2A HP's
Rain water use > 510 m3

That's it though, I messed around with the slider a t the beginning of the week, now is stuck, wanting best part of £3k which I was going to pay a lump sum then buy more over 12 months, now its "fudged" no one on line at ripple for days.

Wife "surprised me" by insisting on a new boxer pup, cost £2.5k which we'd previously agreed was not realistic, ..she's flipped!

Exactly..
Covid prices, peoples stupidity, & the like, when we very selectively bred decent boxers we used to sell them for around £700 (to bloody good homes, e.g in homes on the beach in Bermuda)

Not knocking your love of Boxer’s, Gus, but there’s so many second hand, recycled dogs that need a caring home, just don’t understand the need to support breeding to design.

I've / we've tried, so many maladjusted animals that they state "single dog home only" (as in 1 dog one home) got one home which set upon Tank our big frenchie for instance, adopt is my preference, but it is out of my hands, explosive argument ..ensued! marital madness, goaded on by the fact that both wife & daughter miss our last bitch & want another, it is genuinely beyond reason.

The other week I had to put my fist & arm between Tank & a slipped leash aggressive American bulldog who was going for him ..all the 5 people inc 3 adults too afraid to tackle their own damn dog!
