65ºC bidet? Good gracious!
My daughter reported the problem to the body corporate (of the block of
flats) yesterday pm and they immediately placed job card to have the TP

Aha! Here in the US they're just called water heaters, be they electric
or gas fired. Although some call them "hot water heaters" with the
usual reply of "If the water's already hot, why do you need to heat it?" ;-)
Good idea to make sure the temperature-pressure valve is working as it

The first & 3rd ones are very good. Personally I prefer the wider view
mostly because of the sky, but, as the bridge is the subject, the last

This one has a much different feeling, but is also effective.
All that light on the trees also makes it difficult to achieve a balanced

A fascinating subject, Larry. As you say, the lighting is challenging.
The third image (almost B/W) probably shows the bridge best of all but
the sky is subdued. If you could get the sky more like the last image it
would be greatly improved. BTW, you work?

It was tough light,. There were greenish lights on the house behind me, I don't
know if they were fluorescent or some sort of vapor lights. On the other side
