Top tip on the frozen Logs Joeboy, will have to give that a go on all our 'ugglies' if it gets cold enough down this way.
Been on the chainsaw and splitter myself this morning, retreated inside for a warm up cuppa, more to go at this afternoon.
Liking it! Giveth and taketh away. Our logs are too frozen to chop with chainsaw and the batteries don't like the cold (I am loathe to fire up the petrol saw), just part of my personal game. Yet this frozen split seems like an entirely dreamt up bonus ball.
Away to split the personal 'daddy'. All others are gone to the woodpile. minus 2 here the noo. Glad to be of help.

That went well. Not a hope of splitting that Size of log in Summer.
All ugglies now converted to useful for next Winter. Will have to half their length next Winter but that's fine as it will.be in vise in workshop.with the electric chainsaw. Just goes to show, don't throw it out unless absolutely sure. I've had some of these for 3 years!

Heading off to Spain soonish for a wee bit. Want to keep the dehumidifier upstairs running while away. I know this seems an obvious way to do it but I'm well impressed with myself.

I’ve thought of doing the same thing. However the reality is that our dehumidifier struggles to fill its bucket without us lot showering, perspiring, cooking, etc..

Ref. " Heading off to Spain soonish for a wee bit. "
I might Beeee going in March.
How do i get hold of the Hoymiles software for my inverter.
Can you just pick it up at Mc Donalds or Burger King. ?
Spain is not a qualifying country for the location check on registration. The software is on Google play. As for burger joints...

If you have an android phone Google play should be on there.
UK is not qualified. Holland, Germany, Austria and Italy are. There may be more. Do you have a friend in any of these countries or know of someone travelling there? They could register for you and send you the log in details which you could then use on your newly installed app.
The unit will output power regardless of monitoring software although I do know the urge to it in action.
I might be heading over late Spring and could find time to try to do a list of them and maybe set up a couple of spares. Not sure if that would work though...
