    Definitely going to get a bedding and towels load washed and dried. Pan fried salmon and salad dinner will be put off until tomorrow, thinking some proper oven cooked jacket spuds with sausage casserole.

    Washing going in now as the real heavy load is the tumble dryer. We can have an early tea so cooking is finished by 18:30.

    Bit early 14:30-17:30 is the adjustment period. Unless your tumble takes 3 hours of course

    The washing machine needs to go on now, then tumble dryer will be running within that adjustment period. It's not long enough for both wash and dry to be included, and the drying is the highest consumption. Really should have started the washing a bit earlier, but there wasn't enough notice.

    Got my message from Octopus about 16.15 so I've missed nearly 2 hours of the adjustment period.
