...that the exceptionally mild weather has really helped reduce energy usage here at Clarke Towers.
I am sure the CH mods have also played a part.
Monitoring my usage daily (I know, like a true anorak) has shown a fairly low use of c.£8 a day all in for the last 2 weeks.
It will have to treble to get to the amount the supplier wanted to take from me monthly via Direct Debit (and that might indeed happen).
We shall see.

My overall daily use is less than £2 at the moment and with the government giving us 66 quid a month then I'm in profit for now.
Only got a bungalow though and solar electric for part of the day helps.
Direct debit is 15 quid a month until March

Just ordered new glass,seals,retainers & griddle bars for the fire 160 quid
The cr@p new burn nuggets they supplied were full of sulphur & burnt mega hot wrecked
loads of peoples fires, the griddle bars twisted & bent now started to fall apart.

Merchant not interested to say the least.

Pics to follow.
I was tempted to buy new doors for it but at 180 sovs each I'll hold off atm.

Well I was going in but my body decided not to play ball! I am going in Wednesday instead now

Must admit I was surprised to read you were even thinking of going to work. when you talked about your course I thought you were going to do it online.
Do look after yourself, mate.

Chancellor reverses 'almost all' tax cuts in mini-budget and says energy bills support scheme to be scaled back (msn.com)

Any point in the peeps all getting together for a "class action" type claim? Seems like the merchant needs a good kick in the rear end.

soz mate, don't need this on top of all the other energy problems.

Na tis a waste of time & effort, cant be doing with the hassle as we would end up doing all the
donkey work whilst everyone else gets on. Fook that.

Weather has brightened today and the sun is now shining.
Staying in awaiting delivery of the new MAP/IAT sensor.

Wifey wakes up in the morning now with a swollen hand. Same one as she had both the flu jab and the Covid jab, (Moderna) in.

So I had to get her pills out of the packet thingies for her.

Swelling is partially up her arm, does eventually go down. hoping it is just a relatively short term reaction.

Sensor just arrived. in a proper Bosch packet. Let the fun commence!!

Have a good day folks!!

OK.
Hope you can get better stuff elsewhere. How can you tell it's happening? Or can't you until it's too late?

No I don't, I know some stuff but not enough money to be sued if it goes wrong.
