Re: Energy Upgrading for Shower Problems

Mine is usually, I am a technophobe but for some reason I can work digital clocks out. It's when tradesmen start talking to me about how solar systems work that my brain ceases up ! 😂😂

Re: Energy Upgrading for Shower Problems

Re: Energy Upgrading for Shower Problems
