Re: energy saving tips???

turn off teh router etc overnight, switch to energy bulbs, spend a minute at night before bed seeing whats left on,

I found we tended to leave teh following on

Sky+, ( not in standby, in full on showing picture mode)
TV sender and receiver ( that sends teh Sky+ upstairs)
Washing machine( or teh blue lagoon as I call it as it has a REALLY bright blue display)
Router - not needed from bedtime to after tea the following day
phone chargers x2
battery chargers ( adaptors still turned on even when not charging)

One that bugs me is our Oven has a light that you can't turn off when its cooking, I don't need 40W of light when I'm not even watching the casserole!!!!

Other energy,

make sure your tyres at at right pressure
slow down 10mph
Polish teh car
keep it properly serviced
