i realise its only an indication but i am determined to get it down. when i wake up its already reading 2.30 kwh so that doesnt give me much for rest of the day nd i havent put the washing macine on yet! the things i have on over night are fridge/freezer, v small fishtank with no lights, alarm, sky box on standby. I will have to have a look at the old freezer i have in the garage as its really ancient and the door isnt brill so thats maybe taking a chunk of it

The freezer could be eating the juice. When I first started monitoring (many many years ago) I discovered that the fridge freezer was on for 57 minutes an hour!!

You can buy a monitor that plugs into an individual appliance so you can check the consumption of anything like your freezer that you're concerned about.
