Fingers crossed, will be interested to hear how they fare. Bigger capacity than most standard 096R that's for sure. I tend to stick with Varta for peace of mind so rarely experiment.
The council would probably put a traffic cone there themselves if it was a hazard.....a tree is much more environmentally friendly than a piece of plastic!
The best things are always one because people want to do it, rather than doing it for payment, credit or external validation.
Well done to you. It's good that you get to enjoy the fruits of your labour.
It's interesting reading that....
"got it wrong" sums it up well. Like my Goldilocks analogy earlier.
Too little uptake - "government got it wrong"
Too much uptake, budget gone, electorate wonder why they are paying for flowers not food - "government got it wrong"
The above said - will...
Thinking about it a bit more.....@alomy75 suggests something has frightened "them" - I assume this was meaning "the government/DEFRA/RPA". Can these public bodies really get frightened.....? They are not human, but they are a collection of humans. A collection of humans who created a scheme to...
I also think there is another element too.
Most people make decisions based upon emotion....and then justify it with logic. We do what we WANT to do, and then explain why we did what we did.

They may not be written, conscious 5-10 year plans.....but I think most people have a rough idea of what they are thinking e.g. wanting to expand, wanting to reduce, wanting to retire, wanting to plan for next generation, aware staff will soon be retiring etc.
We are all consciously and...
.....and they are wanting 70% IIRC?
I think changing the rules may not have helped them in achieving their aims.
Seems crazy to be disuading people from entering the scheme when they are only about a quarter of the way towards their own targets.
Laughably the local weather forecasters yesterday were claiming there might be no more rain for the rest of the month! 🙄😂
They can’t even forecast a few days ahead….and April is well known for unexpected showers that appear out of nowhere.
I think it’s a pretty clear conclusion to draw that anyone who has put more than 25% in won’t be able to do the same at the end of their three year agreement.
I fully agree with all of the points you have made though - it’s like Goldilocks and the three bears, first not enough, then too much, etc.
