A fair point, but I just feel that North Korea is so backwards, maybe that's just me though

I've done the Chernobyl & Pripyat day tour - did it 2 years ago when we were in Ukraine for Ukraine Vs England football game. Not sure if I ever posted on this forum about it, I have done elsewhere.
Also, about N Korea, there's a Vice Guide to Travel N Korea Edition. Worth a watch if you're interested in what you're able to see if you visit as a tourist...

Lots of people bought their annual summer holiday this month - myself included. We're going here:
It's in Crete - not going till September though
I fitted the plumbing in the pool and wired and plumbed the house.. Weird
Nice house though, I can spec you some nice tavernas and bars to visit if you like.

Bought a Sensation in Hong Kong, didn't really like it and it had a bit of dust under the screen which flared my OCD too much and so I bought the much better IMO...
Samsung Galaxy S II, great phone, the screen is immense. And what smart phone is complete without...
A portable charger!
Fiio E9 desktop amp
I'll be trying to flog the Sensation for whatever I can get for it once I get around to getting past the damned 250 minimum posts.

An odd combination this month...
- RV511 i3-380M Laptop
- New laptop bag as the old one had well and truly had it's day!
- Coleman Sportster 533 Dual Fuel stove after having to blow out a gas stove after the valve decided it wouldn't function any longer; despite only being 18months old.

Scott Scale 20. Had it for a while but only recently finished paying.
Carbon Fibre baby. Gonna put some slicks on it so I can pwn my mate on his road bike for lolz.Very nice Castiel. I have just purchased my first house with very good insulation and Solar hot water heaters but would love a setup like that aswell. Although living in South Manchester it might not be as effective. (assuming you live in the South of England).
I understand it is connected to the grid but how is it wired up and how exactly does it work? When you say "spare" electricity goes back into the grid, does that simply mean it all goes into the grid and you buy what you need at a cheaper or equal rate or are you actually using the power you generate and say for example you had a powercut would you still have power?
Looks very impressive anyway and maybe it would be more sensible to pay off the mortgage first but as you say with energy prices rising maybe now is a good time to invest!
Maybe this deserves it's own thread. I am sure a few people are interested.
