RIght, off to look at gas & elec prices...just added up we spent £650 last year (october to october) on elect ALONE :eek: Then another £371 on gas :eek:

:wave:

Ahem.. My annual gas/electric bill was a grand total of... *drumroll*


£2087.52

Though I've just had my first bill since we got the new boiler in and it is less than the same period last year.. not by much.. but it was quite a nice autumn last year and we didn't have the heating on as early and I was hanging stuff out for much longer..

Last year the November bill was £394.63

This year it is.. £381.41.. saved £13.22!!! lol.. that's a few beers!!! Hahaha!!

My February bill this year was over £700!! and my May one was another £700.. so.. we shall see when the next bill rolls on in!!

I don't suppose clearing out your cookies would help moonflower? It would mean signing in again after but perhaps your computer is just showing the old stuff.


Don't know where you saw the clean wm cycle bit, but I assume that means run the washing machine empty on a hot wash, I do it with soda crystals and vinegar in the drawer.

Thanks for pasting that for me Pollybear.How often do you wash wm through with soda crystals? I have only done mine once this year!I have very hard water where I live prehaps I should do it once a month?

Pollybear

I would say once a month, but I wouldn't necessarily remember to do it that often
