    Don't know what (if anything) I will do from the list today but they are all home now so DD WILL be emptying her bedroom and cleaning it. Grotty smelly little girl :(.

    Frog munched - energy tariff ends at the end of Sept so I have sorted that. First I joined MSE's cheap energy club (who knew? I clicked on the 'utilities' tab at the top of the page) and found out I am already on the cheapest tariff; so I extended that.
    Much less onerous than I thought - but then frogs so often are!

    Valli thanks for the Pukka heads up, I'll try to pop to Mr S later if not tomorrow.
