Electricity bill help

Buzzz

I really struggle to understand my electricity bill; it's the one bill I have tackled and shopped around for as where I don't understand it, I feel as though I can't make a comparison!

For example, how can the units you use vary so much through out the year when all you use your electric for is the lights?

Any help, comments or where to go to find out more about these bills would be a help!

Magentasue

Our summer average is 13kwh a day. Winter 16kwh a day. Difference mainly due to dehumidifier on a couple of hours every day and tumble drier on couple of hours a week. Also, we have four kids (15-23) at home and they're on TV/Xbox more in the winter.

Nothing plugged in at all? No fridge, freezer, washing machine, television, digibox, DVD player, kettle, toaster, microwave, computer, mobile phone charger, electric shower, extractor fan?
