 But it seems we're using too much hot water !
 Too much hot water :huh: - too many baths (shower), too much washing (put on cool wash), washing hands or rinsing dishes (use cold tap), filling the sink for washing up (use a bowl) or simply a drippy tap.

            Evening all
 Well done everyone - such a fantastic start to a cold and miserable February :dance: :dance:
 Well chuffed. Did a couple of Pro Ac today, one of them cleared already and.........first pay out of £20.13 on the way hurray :j
 It is two years today that I started on my giving-up-smoking challenge and still going, so I'm giving myself a pat on the back as I never thought I'd do it. Now just need to lose the last four pounds of weight that I put on :rotfl:
 Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday

            Good morning everyone 
 Firstly, welcome SavingForARainyDay :wave: It's nice and friendly here so I'm sure you'll pick up loads of tips. Good luck with your challenge!
 Happy anniversary lynnejk :beer: Two years is brilliant!! Congratulations
 The payment I've been waiting for hit my bank account this morning, adding a rather pleasing £160.80 to my total. It's actually a little earlier than anticipated and very very welcome because I've dipped into my overdraft for the first time in I don't know how long :eek: so I'm now back in the black!
 Off now to grab breakfast :coffee: I'll pop back later to see how everyone's doing. Have a nice Wednesday 0 0
