    That DOES sound quite high for the electric!

    Perhaps it is something to do with using expensive day units, or the immersion water heater.

    I have had my bill this morning - my last bill was 3/12/10, so basically 6 months (winter period)

    Since then I have used:

    2,081 kWh of electric

    5,439 kWh of gas


    3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen diner, extension room + bathroom
    Loft insulation but no cavity wall insulation

    GCH and water

    Gas hob / elec oven / dishwasher /washing machine / pond pump 24/7 under counter freezer / lge chest freezer

    Dehumidifier on for 2 hrs every day in winter/spring (after son's 25 minute showers :mad: - and YES, we DO have a daily 'discussion' about that! )

    Tv in living room /my lappy
    Son on computer / TV / xbox - lots!
