    I am passionate about bringing up my children to the best of my ability and despise the selfishness of many parents. There was a report recently condemning the trend for British parents to put their own needs before their children's and I have to agree that while in the minority of parents, it's a growing trend.

    Just winds me up.

      So would I.

      He said that he generated excess "heat" that he could sell. Who the hell to?

      to the OP. The house had solar panels. Presumably they generared extra electricity, but 1800 pounds of it still seems an awful lot.

          Did they have wind turbines & PV panels too? If the house was super-insulated and had lots of low-voltage fittings, they could certainly have generated a surplus. Wind at night generating power which isn't being drawn off / solar during the day when they're out, etc.

          They must have spent a few quid overspeccing the tech to be satisfying all their needs and clearing £150 per month on average though.

          I look forward to watching it later.
