Dusty, what does that attach to? Only asking as when I did comparisons the site even said our usage was extremely high and to check figures
Both of our clamp around the main wire which comes out of the meter. I know quite a lot of libraries loan out monitors now FofC so may be worth checking there.
Electricity question:
I have a little mystery for you all to help with. From our usage I can see that our usage goes up betwen 2-4 am and then again higher between 4-6 am dropping back to where it should be at 6am. What do you think could cause it?
Nothing is on a timer switch
No storage heaters

So far I've checked the OU website (still no course results), checked email, job hunted on council website, checked bank (and cried at the lack of money :eek:) and lost a couple more lungs :rotfl:
I've just gone to move pictures from my camera onto the computer ready to clear the card for Xmas and the computer is saying the card isn't formatted :eek: I might have lost ALL my picturesI'm going to have to go rummaging and see if I can find a cable and retrieve them that way. I have some lovely pictures on their from the last cold snap of pretty trees & spiderwebs in the heavy frost that I wanted to use

Hugs to Castri & Helen & family. Sending get well vibes for Helens' Dad & Calming vibes for Castri, must have been really scary.
Had a call while out yesterday to say the decision had been made & letter would be issued signalling the end of the consulatation period. Have AGAIN been strongly advised to take them to the cleaners, but not sure I have the energy ( feels a bit like the end of a relationship when you just want to have noting more to do with them & move on). Meeting the others this afternoon, but must get on with some flying now....been having probs with the laptop this morning.
