    Depends on the insulation you have, wink, could be £1000 total a year.
    Stickies above need reading. Combine the electric and gas is good and direct debit is good.Electric shower is good.
    Gas for heating is cheapest. Can you give more info.? Type of heating etc,
    Living solo you could get by with hot water from the kettle, and an electric shower. Cooking by mic rowave is cheaper than a hob and oven. Slow cooking is good.
    Above all insulation is king. Who is your supplier?
