Not in the summer as we also had rats pinching the food, not helped by our neighbour's aviary which seems to attract them.

No, hubby has been looking, but we often leave it late.

I've stopped doing it for now, as my neighbour has seen a rat climbing up onto his bird table.

Yes there is a half hourly service in each direction,which would take you to the nearest 2 large towns and even to Cardiff, but because we live at the top of a lot of Welsh valleys, to cross valleys to another town would mean a few different connections........ I drive anyway .

Have you ever had a building extension on your home ?

Most of our shopping is a large supermarket shop which we usually do twice a week, if it was only for something minor than we would walk as we have a few local shops within 10 mins.

Do you have good public transport where you live?

Yes - all cooked veg, including cauli/broc stalk is blitzed and seasoned and frozen if not needed at that time.

Do you walk/bus rather than driving short distances?
(assuming it is not a 'supermarket shop')

Only when the weathers bad, don't like wet washing hanging indoors plus I like to iron it the same day if possible.

Gas

Do you use a tumble drier ? ( that will shoot your bill up )

Anne

Anne Report 6 Jun 2009 16:51

We too have a high electricity bill, probably down to the many appliances in the house and the electrics for two ponds. We have three TVs, four radios & three Hi Fi's plus dvd players.[not all in use at the same time]

Do you cook by gas or electricity?

I watch what soaps and documentaries I want then hubby usually chooses after 9pm. I usually watch the Apprentice on my tele in the kitchen or on i player next day as he's not a fan.

How many TV and radio / hi fi s do you have ..? ( I'm thinking of my electric bill here and cringing !!)

Anne
