Valli, thank you oddly Octopus never came up on the MSE energy club search I did, a load of companies I had never heard of did, most of which had a warning by MSE over caution as new / customer service not known, etc then Bulb who I was with last time. I'll have a think about it and search Octopus.Holes filled in, dried, rubbed down, re filled where needed, other wall under coat painted on, also touch up around where various workmen have slightly dinked the walls.Hoovered up the dust I madeWashing in folded / ironing doneEditI am being quoted £73 Octopus £86 bulb per monthI think octopus is going to win. Lets make sure the meters do get changed first.

WAC - This heat 🥵😂11

WAC here too :-( we had a storm at about 10pm, it lashed down for about 10mins, when it stopped it was still stiflingly hot. We both had 3 showers yesterday, water bill is going to be going up at this rate!
i did manage to hoover through the ground floor yesterday, also did wm x 1 and my dailies. I am trying to keep on top of things as we are away from Friday, it’s so hot though that it’s hard to want to do anything.
Another early start will be made at the paid stuff, I can then take a short break before it gets too hot and whiz through a few house bits... that’s the plan anyway.
take care all xx11 -
It’s now pouring with rain and thunderstorms- hoping the kids stay asleep....
Big hugs to you dancemum xx12
