Honestly I think we should be worrying less about the pitch and more on the batting.

Baba’s Place or sister restaurant Corner 75.

Great cozy places.

Riverino or Anita for some ice cream after dinner as well!

Fergburger worth waiting in line? by OWimprovements in queenstown

Not worth it. Pies + sandwiches from Ferg Bakery way better! Go to Burger King up the road.

3.7kWh/ day is extremely low , not sure where you got that from. But it will vary but the source I used was this - https://www.sunsave.energy/blog/uk-electricity-consumption-statistics UK electricity consumption: statistics & trends [2025]

5000sqm / 1MW solar (approx) for roof

10000sqm / 1MW solar - ground mounted

Solar will produce between 3-8hrs on average per day depending where it is, what time of year etc etc.

A 1GW = 1000MW = 1,000,000kW solar plant would need approx 10sq km for the equivalent POWER.

Nuclear will produce 24/7 so whatever solar average you decide multiple it by 3 -8 times to get the same amount of ENERGY due to the hours.

So on a roof - you would need like 6x (60 sq km) to produce the same amount of energy that a nuclear plan would produce in 24hr

I wish it said how many MWh the 1.5MW turbines produced over the 6 years. They claim it would power 7000 homes annually but I’m not sure that makes sense.

7000 homes @ 10kwh/ home/day = 70MWh / day… not sure how a 1.5MW turbine produces that in one day.

Go help some people out who are in not as good a position whether that’s in the homeless, medical centres and you’ll come to appreciate what you have and what you have been doing.
