Exactly! Thank you :D
I wince whenever the "always on" machine suggestion is brought up as
then you're having some machine on being utilised 1% of the time but on
100% of the time, it makes no sense.
That said, I did leave our oven on overnight on Saturday night :( aside
from being lucky not to burn the house down I guess I used c. 6 months
of the electricity I have saved in recent years through not using stand
by or low energy bulbs etc.
Mr Blair backs me and my human right to waste energy through
forgetfulness though so that is ok.
Oh well, back to the cave.
