What are you paying a heating oil bill in June for?
Well, actually it's kerosene, and it's where we get our hot water from. The last 500 litres we had on 20 March cost us £268.29. This lot costs us £332.06 and should last us til September/October.
If this level keeps up, we will definitely have to look at moving, cos 500 litres lasts under a month with the heating running at comfortable levels in our winter - this is a COLD house with thick stone walls which take a lot of warming up. When Solveig moved in about five years ago it was well under £100.00 per 500 litres..

Brrr....
It's nicer now, about 16 degrees air temperature, and warm in the sun. "Any economic unit can emit money. The serious problem is to get it accepted" Hyman Minsky

Originally the foam base was put on underneath the stucco because when stucco was used in places where it was not always hot and dry, the stucco would crack from the expansion and contraction.
It was only after doing it that they discovered the side effect in terms of cutting energy bills. I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
