  • So was mine!

    Honestly, I said to my Mum .... "it feels really short" and she was like "what" - when I stuck my hand round the back - it's still bra length :o

  • Gas & Elec

    After reading El's diary and her G&E nightmare .... I decided to have a look at mine in more detail!

    I have been worrying about this with being in the house for .... 14 weeks now :eek:

    Just looking at the comparison with last year ..... my Elec is around 1/2 what it was last year???

    Really don't know how as a) I've been in the house and b) I've been using the TD (which I didn't last year) .... mmmmm

    Gas is slightly up but really expected that with being housebound just now.

    So .... I owe them £12.25 which isn't too bad taking the above into consideration.

    I think I will pay this off tomorrow - and hope they don't try to shoot my d/debit sky high - they tried to put it up to something silly like £118 this time last year and then said it would be for only 3 months ..... sorry but the reason I pay by d/debit is so the payments are the same year round as I can't bl00dy afford to pay huge amounts!

  • Does anyone know what / who Worldpay is?

    Thought I'd go and just make the payment now while I remember and it says this is who their payments go through.
