    An oil filled radiator and twin electric ovens will be providing the heating tomorrow. No HW cylinder here (Combi boiler), so kettle for the hot water and electric showers all round. I can see it being a high usage day!

    I'm busy working out a schedule to burn as much fuel as possible - even tried inviting my kids round to do their washing here but couldn't convince them that 120 mile round trip would be worth their while ...

    Deep seated hatred of Scottish Power and all who sail in her - would love to see Ofgem grow a pair and actually do something about it.

    Where abouts are you? I'm happy to drop a couple of sacks of laundry off. Please make sure you maximise electricity use by ironing it too!

    I've got my OH's boy staying with me tonight. I just told him he has to get up at 3:30am to turn all the lights on :D

    How confident are you? I was going to do a load of washing but it can wait til tomorrow if that would be better.

    Grass needs cutting, which I'll do this afternoon during the negitive hours as it's forecast to rain tomorrow :(

    It's spring, surely all the curtains need a wash? Patio definitely needs a jet wash too.

    If you are on Twitter @agilepredict does a pretty good job of coming up with an idea of tomorrow's prices by about 11am ...

    National Grid forecast is showing a surplus of wind/solar energy most of the day tomorrow. That usually means negative prices

    Curtains are in the midday load, followed by the winter bedding - will really struggle to fid anything to wash tomorrow ..
