just saw your point bear I agree
my neighbour exclaimed that living where we do is expensive - she uses 2 full tanks (1100litres) of oil to heat the house every year.
its nearly 1 year i have been in my house (mid feb moved in) and ill not even have used A tank.
difference is my house is set to stay at 14 degrees except for between 4.30 and 6 where it comes on to raise the temperature to 19 for us getting up and at 4pm till 5pm where it lifts from 14 to 16 degrees so its not baltic when we get in - then the fire is lit and the heating stays off from then.
theirs is on perminantly in winter and judging by the state of their roof havign no snow and mine having loads - they have no insulation.
£80 per month gas
£75 per month electric
5 bedroom semi
2 adults and a 5 yr old
loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, double glazing
I'm always moaning about lights being left on and the heating being on but Mrs H is half trinidian and says its in her genes and must be warm at all times! 🙄
