Reference:
Cologne anything electric burns the power up no end.We knew that before we got gas central heating and heated the house with electricity.Bills were triple what they are with gas now ,even with all the price increases.You could check your meter and see if the wheel is spinning like buggery when it is on. OR get a bloke in that can fiddle it...ahem!
I know katty, I'd much prefer gas, but unfortunately it's only in parts of the village for the time being. I'm on the wrong side, I think the last push is next year. As for a bloke that can fiddle, 
I used to know lots, but it's all going wrong when you're old.
