    Jwil I am truly horrified by what you are paying for water:mad:, we are on a septic tank/ reedbed filtration system, so only pay £137 a year for our water bill, but if that goes wrong we have to pay for it to be emptied/fixed.
    I also have to be careful what cleaning products are used have to only use non bio washing powder etc, no bleach. tend to use ecover stuff which is more expensive to buy so I suppose all that adds up.


    Hope you and little ones are well and enjoying half term. xx

    Wow, that's really low! But yes, having to manage a septic tank takes care and has different costs.

    I'm working this week, but DH is covering so little jwil hasn't had to go to holiday club which is nice! Hope you are all enjoying it too.

    He did sort it out :T It doesn't look an awful lot reduced, but I know he has moved stuff from elsewhere and put it in there so it's a big improvement. 3 crates of stuff that have been stacked in my kitchen for years have been moved :T :T The kitchen is now a kitchen only area :j It needs a good sort out, clean and declutter but I can do that now without these crates getting in the way :T

    I find it hard to find the motivation to list now that I don't 'have' to to pay the bills. It's a shame, but it's nice when the money comes in!
