The revenge of the stripey socks - a DFW adventure

Karmacat

Got it, thanks! It wasn't even in my spam box, because you'd sent me an email previously when I was so down about my brother in law :kisses3:

Loved the photo of you - you really put yourself down tho, I saw a pretty, petite, happy young woman in the one thats listed as being you!

KC - I always want to call you TC (Top cat):rotfl:

you are very kind - although the person in my mirror looks more like mr potatohead normally...............:rotfl:

Just ordered OIL - they didnt respond to my online query and my asking for a £15 off offer if doing things online :mad: so I had to phone and the lady who deals with the ONLINE stuff isn't back til 8th Oct.....pah pah pah - I may actually complain

40.79p/ltr + vat

1000l tank


:eek: we use between 4000-5000l a year even with it only on 2x day for 1 hour in am and 3 hours in evening :eek:

I don't mind morphing into TC! I used to love that cartoon, even by the time I was a teenager :rotfl:

That oil bill sounds horrendous :eek: thats up in the region of £2k, isn't it _pale_ that puts my little £820 total to shame

We spend 2-3k a year at the mo if not more - oils cheaper than last year when it was 69p a litre - draw back of a large ish old house, an island (no gas), and poor climate means an added heating requirement of between 25-50% annually for most house holds here. No wonder over 1/3 of population here are in fuel poverty..........- you can tell now why i work in 'renewable heat energy' can't you?

And £1200 annually on electric (but the dd's just gone down so its about £1000)

Oh yeah and coal over the next 6 months or so - £300 (tis why I am trying to amass free wood)

I loved Topcat - maybe I can be Benny?

I also love Hongkongphooy

Yikes to fuel costs _pale_. What do you mean you have no gas - you're in the North Sea for goodness sake. Get your spade out & get digging :rotfl:

:rotfl: I wish I could do my own smilies, those are great!

I want the cat, by the way, just in case anyone's in any doubt.......:D

Totally agree Fay, HongKongfooy rules.

Just posted on KC's thread that our local library is loaning out energy monitors for electricity for free.

Worth asking in your local library.

Got one already but thanks though - I got an energy owl last year when we moved into the house of humungous fuel consumption

Its a good way to watch yourself get poor........
