    Offered a session from 18.00 to 19.00.
    I've signed up but as I'm on Agile and try to use as little as possible between 4 and 8pm it really won't make much difference.  Probably another 2p if I'm lucky.

    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.

    I'm wondering why they need it. Could it be something to do with World Earth Day?

    We've got quite a lot of sunshine where I am. Not going to export though, forecast for tomorrow is clouds and rain, will keep our batteries full.

    TBH, not much scope to save at this time of year @ 18:00 to 19:00. Short of turning everything off & going for a walk.

    In our house that will be 2 laptops not plugged in.

    I was a little taken aback when I got an invite to this session, having rejoined Octopus last week (and not expecting to still be signed up). I opted in, but as they aren't yet receiving any data from my smart meter I expect I'll end up with the average number of points.

    Well that was the easiest session, so far. Apart from turning the thermostat down a degree, to make absolutely certain the heat pump didn't fire up, my normal consumption was more than covered by solar, even though the clouds were rapidly encroaching from the Irish Sea.

    I looked back. Apparently it was earth hour we did back in march. Earth week next. Turn your power off for the week and get a 4" plush octopus.

    I could do that, as long as the sun shines every couple of days :)
