    I've just had a look at the price fixing stuff for my electricity,and it reckons it would cost me 50% more :eek: :eek: I am lucky as I only have electric in the flat and my usage is low, I hardly ever ue the heating as its a really warm top floor flat and all my rooms have velux windows so its really light too ;) My direct debit for it at the moment is 41.00 a month, but I reckon with some careful usage I can save a bit so even if it does go up in price hopefully my lower usage will balance it out ;):D

    My grandad just popped in with a card for me with £40 in it :beer:

    Ds gave me a beautiful card this morning and a necklace that he'd chosen ;) He was dead proud that he chose it and paid with some of his own pennies :o ... he only had 10p in his pocket so I'm guessing mum had to help him out :rotfl:

  • Hello Benben,

    Happy new diary and Happy Birthday.

    I followed your old diary, but didn't post, so I thought with a new diary I'd take the opportunity to say hello!:wave:

    Your money saving and money making ways are an inspiration. I don't know how you find the time.

    BTW.
