Just waiting for the joiners now to box in some of the pipes.

I am however gobsmacked though at the amount British Gas has gone up. Gone through approx £17 in Gas since last Wednesday night. . Have got my central heating on now just for 1 hour, taken note of how much credit i have on the meter and will check again when that 1 hour is up, hopefully this will tell me how much i need to put on for the week and just how much "warmth" i can afford.
Cool cant wait to have a warm house for a change but yeh the cost of running it worries me a little, im putting close to £10 a week already just to use the one fire & cooker per week & still end up on emergency. Looking forwad to constant hot water & might actually save me a fortune in leccy, so probably balance it out as im currently on the owd econ 7 & owd blowers that dont work cept 1. In my old house the central heating was really economical £10 per week & never on emergency plus the hosue was always warm in fact too warm sometimes, i would of thought they would put an economical boiler in being a new one
