Not playing their games

Good evening. 
I've spent most of the day in the garden today. Such a lot of work to be done. Got the lawnmower out for the first time this year. Surprised to find that it actually works. It was the cheapest one I could find at B & Q a lot of years ago. I don't bother with maintenance, just put it away after the last mowing in the Autumn. Switch it on in the Spring and it's good to go. 
Here I am having a little moan about an email I received from British Gas. 
Two dog walks today. The first one was cut short this morning. Carol was getting ready to go out so we only had fifteen minutes. I went back this evening after I put all the garden tools away, to give Billy another walk to make up for the short one this morning. 
Now I am tired so I will be off to bed shortly. 
Thanks for popping in. Catch ya tomorrow. Toodle pip.   ilona

    1. Whenever they, the utilities, and service providers, make any changes, it is always in their favour, not ours. We are being herded in one direction only. Toodle pip.

  2. You are very lucky to have this system. I read my meters for gas, water and electricity once a year and submit the results on paper, per telephone or online. Then I get the invoices on paper. And I have to pay in advance the same amount of money for the next twelve months per direct debit. So, when I manage to use less gas, water and electricity, I still have to pay too much for the rest of the year until the next meter reading, when the sum will eventually be lower. Which never happened. Because even when I use less, the prices will have gone up during the year.

    1. Hilde, that sounds horrendous. Checking meters once a year and then the company dictates how much you must pay monthly, regardless of the fact that the cost price might have gone up or down during that period. They have really got you locked into a money laundering scheme where you have no options. I shall keep on fighting for my freedom of choice.
