    We live in a crap house with no double glazing or insulation, but what we save in rent on a place that had these things we only end up spending in winter on the heating, so the high bills are ok IYSWIM! I try not to put the heating on, but Seth's hands look purple if I dont have it on low pretty much constantly!! If it was just me I'd man up and put a jumper or 3 on, but I cant have the wee man's hands purple!

    I've set it up anyway, and all in his name, to be emailed through to him :rotfl: I've arranged it to come out of my account, as does the rent, so when he transfers the rent over each month he cant transfer over a bit extra to cover it. I'll just pay a bit as well, I've not paid any bills or anything since I went on ML so I've done quite well to not pay them for the two months I've been earning again :rotfl:

    Our gas was £260 and our electric was £160 for the last quarter! I had the heating on constantly for about 2 weeks though when it snowed. And I've been using the tumble dryer a lot too.

    DH is still not home :( He phoned about half an hour ago to say that he was in Sheffield but has now been called out to Bradford. He's on call all week - they always seem to be the longest ones.

    Right Caitlyn is whinging so going to do tea then take her for a sleep.......
