    Just had an email about tomorrow's event, 5.30pm to 6.30pm
  • Yup, I clicked on the link last night and am better prepped today than previously. Dishwasher timer set for 1pm, full blaster cycle! Alarm set to remind me to load washer and dryer. I'll probably have the longest shower I've ever conceived of (maybe even 4 minutes!) at lunch time. I think I'll give the kitchen/diner room a good steam mopping too. . . .brownie points an added bonus :D

    I would start the dishwasher at 1:30 pm 😎

    Correct, I got an hour ahead of myself in all the excitement. Thank you.

    Unless:
    It has a cold prewash first
    Has a dry cycle at the end
    Takes over 3 hours to run

    I think we have the Bosch peasant range because our dishwasher had eco, normal, intense. . .that's it, I think. . .there are some other buttons but I've never gotten adventurous. Anyway, all corrected. Thanks folks.

    Sitting here in my Speedos at a balmy 25oC which will mean all heating moved for at least 8 hours with the heat pump. Jacket potatoes done the slow way over 2 hours in the oven as well as 3 other things for later this week and a late hot lunch. 2 loads of washing, one tumble dry, dishwasher load and the gym heated and dehumidified lots of devices charged and legionella burn on the hot water.

    Hoping for a decent payback.
  • No final score from Loop yet but I can see we did ~9.5kwh in the 3 hour time period (I couldn't find anything else to wash and dry!) and for the hour in question it's less than .5kwh

    I expect this one to be my best effort so far although that's not saying much
  • Colour me underwhelmed. . . "Your total savings so far are £22.83"

    So the days efforts were worth about £6.80 on top of previous total savings
