But we can't stop now - and for any of the money to serve it's purpose we must get to our target. I can't ask any more from you guys, but I am hoping we can continue on the Summer Board which will start to get busy around May time.

Possibly a silly question but gonna ask it anyhow can't look any sillier 2nite. Is this amount including paying someone to install the system as well as buying it.

When I was at Michelle's last week we were talking to a group of irish guys who are heating engineers and plumbers and suchlike and they volunteered to go over for a week in the summer to help with the installation. I am waiting for them to contact me about this but maybe this could cut the cost a little and mean we get there ...
