On another note, Big G generally buys the electric for our prepayment meter, we are currently putting in around £150 a month, 2 bedroom house, no storage heaters on, halogen heater in Erin's room for a couple of hours at night, electric fire on in the living room from 4pm til maybe late, 1 load of washing a day, things are only tumbled from drying on airer to soften them... water heater on for 2 hours at teatime for baths and dishes... water is very hot but not much of it, so loathe to turn it down as usually need to add cold to bath just to get enough volume, invariably is running out by the time bath is filled..

so we are on a massive energy saving cutback... everything except sky box gets switched off at wall now, (sky box gts tempremental if left off apparently?! )

Anyhow, in a bid to help this, i have purchased a new more energy efficient tumble drier... whoo hoo!! not sure if it will pay for itself, but i wanted a new one anyway and now i have an excuse!!
