Went to the ballet for the first time (The Nutcracker).
So, the Wizard Of Oz who was also the director of a school for malnourished toe-dancers, gave his daughter to a rat exterminator and they had a party when the rats were dead.
I may have got the plot wrong.

Finally - its working !
Pi3B+ with a 4-channel relay & opto inputs & 32 inputs via serial from an Arduino 2560 talking MQTT
Next - get the Pi talking USB/HID with a *very* stupid Axpert solar inverter & push that data on MQTT.
The #homeassistant rabbit-hole is really really deep.....
