What have you done today to make you feel proud to be a dfw?

I forgot I did this one but I will post it anyway as it may remind someone else to do the same...

I got my first gas bill from npower juice, and they had estimated it. So I read my meter and it was about 30 odd units less than their estimate! So that should bring it down a tad. Gotta keep on top of these people!

I just ordered a water saving Hippo from Thames water - they're free, and you pop it in your toilet cistern to save 3 litres per flush. Every little helps, eh.
Makes up for lack of eBaying i've done today.
