We had smart meters for gas and electricity fitted a couple of days ago, and now I have a little display in the kitchen which tells me what we're paying for fuel at any minute of the day! I've become fixated on finding out what things are costing: the spotlights in the kitchen cost 2p/hour - I switch those off and I've still got 2p/hour registering, so then there is a hunt for what is still on and finally find that it's the heated towel rail. Heart attack when I switch the kettle on - DH and I now put just enough water in that we need. DH is now switching lights off when he leaves a room. OK, we'll settle down soon, I know, but it's been really interesting to find out exactly what things cost.
Is it normal to talk to yourself?
