Historic Bolton band's delight at royal honour to top off very special year ift.tt/s3yq0tf

Day 215 (Part 2): This evening we had the absolute pleasure of attending the Eagley Band Christmas Concert with the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, Judith Bromley, and hundreds of brass band enthusiasts. The Band, along with the Community Choir, have a rich history dating back to 1850, making it one of the UK’s oldest brass bands. Known for their musical excellence, they’ve performed at prestigious venues and competitions, earning respect across the brass band community. Under the baton of conductor Chris Wormald, a celebrated musician, composer and all round good bloke, the band has achieved new heights, blending tradition with innovation. His leadership and expertise have further cemented Eagley Band’s reputation as a cornerstone of Bolton’s cultural heritage. Tonight’s concert was brilliant because it perfectly captured the christmas spirit with a mix of classic carols, heartwarming melodies, and lively performances. The band’s incredible musicianship created a magical atmosphere that brought the audience together ready for Christmas. #TeamBolton #TogetherStronger Mayor of Bolton @eagleybrassband

Octopus is investing so much in heat pumps because we want to end our dependence on gas. The easier path would be to go along with the fiction we'd shift from selling gas to selling H2 - but that wouldn't be right for customers, environment or security. utilityweek.co.uk/octopus-ceo-i-….

My op-ed covering ⁦@EnergyUKcomms⁩ & @theADEuk asks for growing DemandFlexService #DFS (next winter & beyond): ➡️ Switching mechanism ➡️ Commit to follow-on service ➡️ Stacking with Capacity Market ➡️ Asset metering ➡️ Clearer dispatch process utilityweek.co.uk/what-is-the-be…

⚡️thanks @UtilityWeek for highlighting this as key barrier to growing DFS service last winter. Customers were excluded if meter numbers appeared on more than 1 provider list (& stayed so until providers could resolve the duplication). Poor outcome for both providers & customers
