Hee Hee!Have you had a lottery win
Quite, although we must be on a different tariff as we always had standing charges on both, they just went up, neither is over 50p though.
all this talk of how much peeps use per day, i really must open the meter box and try pushing some buttons.
We have a smart meter fitted by Scottish electricity some time ago and we had a lickle electric box of tricks that showed stuff. I plugged it in and charged it up a little while ago but it don't work no more, well only shows us a little bit. nothing like it used to work.
But Octopussy say we are on a smart meter, so obvs they can use it bettrn us. They took the thing over ages ago and at first we still had to read the meter, but then one day all of a sud they could do it.
At least take poor old DD out of it first!If it does I'll have it on gumtree & ebay within the hour
Dunno how they work. thought they read the meter down the leccy cables or summit. Or stuck another one in beside it.I have got the old meter with the big numbers, tried to get a smart meter but couldnt get a signal
or somit. ??

you can tell I'm a total ignoramus about this stuff.
Originally it did communicate with the lickle box but that was back when with Scottish leccy.
TBH at the end of the day, we have to use what we have to use and we have to pay what we have to pay. We have reduced consumption as much as we can and that's it really.
Just have to grit our teeth and bear it.
Or go and live in the library!!
I'll just whisper this...Shhhhhh quite please, youd get chucked oot
Tempted to say "tough" "get one yourselves" on the wood burner. If you have a chimney it isn't for ornament. Ours in Frogland burns ridiculously efficiently so there is very little smoke at all. Just a faint pleasant smell!I also had a Scott Pwr smart meter (it's in the kitchen drawer) but I asked Octopus for a new one and they came and swapped it plus swapped gas and lecci meters for new ones.
The new meter is more precise, and I don't have to supply readings,
Gas is very expensive recently
I have electric fire in solar for most of day which helps but still more than double last years bills
I'd love to stick a wood burner in cause I have a chimney but I'm in a bungalow surrounded by houses so I'd probably smoke them out,

FECK OFF!
Wot you need is shorter trousers or a pair of bicycle clips..we did the shopping, it was raining.
Back home & in the dry.
It seems I have been walking on my trouser cuffs and they have wicked up all the puddles of rain. Oops!
Penalty of being a short-ar$e I suppose.
As long as your burner is installed properly and HEPA compliant your neighbours would only know you have one as you first fire it up. Once its burning at the correct temp there is virtually no smoke visible out of the chimney.I also had a Scott Pwr smart meter (it's in the kitchen drawer) but I asked Octopus for a new one and they came and swapped it plus swapped gas and lecci meters for new ones.

Have they gone out of fashion again?You do not have to wear those bell bottoms these days you know. Think they moved to turnips to stop that.
