A place for everything, everything in its place.

Dammit...just wasted a whole morning's gas !
The radiator in their room was set to 'off'.

my leopard skirt

They don't happen to be young beautiful Filipina's do they Graham?I have guests who don't seem to be able to keep warm with six layers of clothes.
I can think of a way to get round that wee problem which doesn't involve cranking up the heating.
well no heating on yet and i am still in my shorts too, keep busy and keep the gloves and hat on at all times
Nope....my son and his Finnish girlfriend.They don't happen to be young beautiful Filipina's do they Graham?

Don't think he'd appreciate me making a pass at her.
Its not cool to come across as a tight git you know
I pay around £100 a month for electricity and gas, so around £3.30 a day. This is split 70% gas, 30% electricity = £2.30 of gas a day on average (obviously more in winter, minimal in summer with water and cooker heating). Well worth it IMO.
I wish mine was that...Heating £100 per month....electric £45... although my heating has been on for the last month or so
My heating is broken should be fixed today if the bloke comes with the right part.
But to keep my wife and stepdaughter warm I make them chop the logs for the fire
As life is to live so love is to give
With respect Mark, that seems rather a lot!I wish mine was that...Heating £100 per month....electric £45...although my heating has been on for the last month or so

It's my money and I'll spend it wisely.
Probably why I don't owe anybody a penny, and everything I own is paid for.
Been there done that with all the flashy impress the friends and neighbours stuff.
It's 21C in my house, and we're all happy and comfy.
£207 a month here, and I haven't even put the heating on yet
Ours finally went on yesterday for the first time since (I think) April ... such, has the mercury droppedover the course of the past week.
I can relate to that. Totally agreeI couldn't give a

I didn't mention Michael. ..that was when my good lady was here. ...like in the Philippines, she didn't wear clothes in the house, no matter what time of year. ...still, that's all a distant memory nowWith respect Mark, that seems rather a lot!
Yes I know, I spoilt her rotten.
Btw. .I'm not moaning here :-). ..I didn't have a problem paying that amount or her walking about near naked :-). .although she did put a top on while frying...as long as she was happy, that's all what mattered :-)
Yup ... me tooI can relate to that. Totally agree... we currently pay £112 pcm by direct debit to 'Scottish Power'.
...................................................... which I feel ought to be adjusted to make allowances for not using the gas central heating at all for the whole summer.
That does seem a lot Arthur. I paid just over £50 for my gas from mid May to mid August this year but that's for a flat. During the main winter months it was about £150.Yup ... me too
...................................................
older people feel the cold more, also remember Arthur is at home nearly 24/7 while me and you work and are out of the house for 8hrs+ a day
And the rest.and you work and are out of the house for 8hrs+ a day
Valid point though. Wasn't aware Arthur had retired. Thought he was only about 53.
no heating on here
You wait until you get billed for your electricity. ..air conditioning doesn't come cheap over there. ..A reason why electricity won't be privatised any time soon. .no heating on here
£160 per month NPower only been with them since I booted Scottish Power into touch in Feb. Looking at our readings / consumption paying ahead of the game I expect it to pan out at about £120 per month - fixed till Feb2015
I pay £40 for gas & £30 for electric per month and at the moment am £257 in credit, but having said that we only moved into this house beginning of April this year, I'm hoping the credit I've accumulated plus the £200 fuel allowance will suffice us through the winter, will keep you posted. I will point out we do wear appropriate clothing for indoor winter months and we have never felt cold indoors, also last winter I introduced Maritess to the famous Hot water bottle and to my surprise after about one week she never wanted it again.!
And look at our privatised energy companies. Very CHEAP?
You may think the Philippines comparison isn't anything to do with this discussion but I think it isAnd look at our privatised energy companies. Very CHEAP?
You were lucky...
