Just 
17 weeks to go at the time of writing! We photographed the sign in a restaurant in Droitwich a couple of week ago whilst down at a meeting with Enertech, the makers of CTC boilers and the EcoZenith intelligent thermal storage system.
It seems no time at all since sponcering Dunbars Northlight arts festival by installing an off grid PV system in July but with August almost gone and Scottish and Southerns anouncement today of a 9% hike in energy prices heralds the start of winter is almost upon us and the heating season begins for another year!
So whats in the calendar before the big day arrives?
There are rumours that the long awaited domestic RHI scheme will be unveiled pretty soon.
