I wish I could keep it off more but the heat makes me feel sick and nauseated.

Several years ago we discovered that we were being charged by Anglian Water for surface water drainage when in fact all our rain water was going via a soak away. We have an early 60's bungalow on the outer edge of the village, so fairly rural. It was also originally on a septic tank but not since the 80's. Once the soak away was proved to AW (sent deed documents etc) we were credited back for just the year in which we proved it but no more ....typical. I think they tried it on when the proerty had new owners before us and no one noticed it being charged again. Like you we rarely ever have our immersion on except for the odd bath but we do have an electric shower which is lovely.

I hope you've not gotten any blisters. AsI live in Florida, most of the year is spent with air conditioning on indoors. Our heat has been stifling and though the temperatures have lowered a bit to the mid-eighties, it still quite warm. One of the ways I lower my costs is to unplug the computer when not in use. Another is using a smaller tank for the hot water in the flat. Here, the utility companies offer a free energy-saver appraisal for your house or flat with suggestions on everything from insulation to appliances and I've not gone above $60 per month in the last three years. I'm hoping to lower the bill further if we ever cool down.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376645220662546020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-12670214090353834692016-10-10T20:31:41.069+01:002016-10-10T20:31:41.069+01:00Cheap and cheerful meal, as they say a little bit ...Cheap and cheerful meal, as they say a little bit of what you fancy does you good.<br />I have the same suppliers as you for gas, electric and water, we have pre paid meters here for the gas and electric and I like that , that way we can see whats what.Simple Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00884864661226371141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-65347020989471866962016-10-10T20:18:58.476+01:002016-10-10T20:18:58.476+01:00stay safe walking in the dark. cycling in the dark...stay safe walking in the dark. cycling in the dark I am lit up like a Christmas tree but usually early in the morning and there isnt too much traffic about.Brendaintheborohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15084623324970433935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-65354628965255895952016-10-10T19:13:56.980+01:002016-10-10T19:13:56.980+01:00wow £4.04 for gas! until last month we were paying...wow £4.04 for gas! until last month we were paying £100 on direct debit with Npower, now it's down to £46 month and that is with monthly meter readings! but last year we replaced a 30 year old boiler with a combi-boiler so it just shows how much gas it was using!Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307151386938476266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-16865699732235798012016-10-10T19:01:32.266+01:002016-10-10T19:01:32.266+01:00It is clearly stash clearing season.
