    What have you been doing today?

    I don't know, but I doubt it - I couldn't take a proper look, it was outside, very wet, and hidden by bodywork. I'll have a proper look once it dries up. The original back box, was quite large, the replacement, and what I could of it this morning, was tiny.

    Economy 7 clock wrong

    Nobody is blaming you, it's just that we are incredulous that it is operated in that way.

    Advice - First Fix Ring main or Radial?

    I agree, for main areas, but radials do have use in special, small areas, if the reason makes it worthwhile.

    Economy 7 clock wrong

    Me too, I was stuck with BG for many months, until they eventually sorted the finances of my account out, and I was finally able to move my account... They weren't the cheapest offering, at the time, but they have been excellent value for us, on the Tracker, including a way to save a bit more...
