@GezzaP yeah she really bit me today. Should have fed her in her morning routine but I went outside hoping to catch sunrise. If she doesnt get what she wants she will bite - she is a very willful little cat.
@Bunniekins @MissGremlin @TAB I think I've covered everyone for the info below
Wanted to say i think you all know about this but just a reminder you can sign up to the solar sharer offer for free electricity during the middle of the day which comes into effect July 1st. If you are in South Australia, South East Queensland or NSW you are eligible. Its a Federal Government initiative
Utilise the new Solar Sharer Offer
"For smart meter households, retailers will start offering a Solar Sharer Offer from July 1. This is an opt-in plan that gives you three hours of free electricity during the middle of the day.
"If you can shift some of your usage into that window, it could significantly reduce your bills without any upfront cost. You do not even need rooftop solar to take advantage of it."

Oh right pilates @Meowmy . I need it as core is especially weak but I can’t
do many of the exercises. I need to do physio and yoga to build up my strength first. I did buy a pilates ring, however. Waiting for it to arrive. I went to yoga classes but teacher made fun of me when I couldn’t hold a plank so I left class.

My puss has just come in out of the rain and is now sitting on my lap @SmilingGecko . I don’t think I have a smart meter. I thought the free power was for everyone? I’ll have to look into this. I could use that window to turn heater on for a little while.
Time to do some Spanish.

Yeah but I don’t walk far like I used to @TAB . The weather here keeps changing. Rain then sun. Puss on my lap. Heat pad on my back.
