BANDWIDTH IN THE ALLERTONS

At the September meeting of the Environmental Group, several people expressed concerns about the slow internet connection speeds available in the Allertons especially at cetrtain times including Sundays.  We are seeking to establish whether others in our villages have serious concerns about this.  Please comment (by clicking on comments below) and let us know how this issue is affecting you.

Solar Energy

The current topic of interest for some of us is solar energy.  Several people in the village have had panels installed or are planning to do so. Tell us if you have PV or solar water heating and your experiences of installation and use.  Are they working effectively and is the PV feed in tariff providing the promised income?  Were your installers good and would you recommend them to others?  We hope to have solar energy as the main topic at the October meeting but an initial discussion would be interesting.
