    Been on since Sunday (I think), very low just to maintain the ambient temp. I'm a little higher up than most people though, so it's usually about 2 degrees colder in my area than the rest of Dublin. -2 on wednesday morning!

    back on couple of nights. Not looking forward to the bill though.

    The last bill was for 96 cent gas used. But the bill came to 12.24!!

    Made up to that by a standing charge, VAT, and carbon Tax. All legal I'm sure, but fukkit, the dirty basterds can't keep doing this.

    thats 1200% more than what I actaully bought.

    Its like a butcher saying "2 euro please for the pound of rashers. That'll be 24 euro then please."

    Standing charges are sh1t alright. Load of arse especially for something you only use half the year.

    Yeah. Yesterday and today.
    It's off now though. Being fat has its advantages.
    It's not fat. It's extra insulation :D

    Just another rip off, Rigger,.
    My 2 previous bills were for around 11 euro and I didn't use the shaggin thing at all!
    We put up with anything they throw at us these days. We have become a nation of soft wimps. All we do is whinge in sites like this and text in to radio stations.

    The men of 1916 would turn in their graves.

    :mad:

    Hypotetical of course.
    But If he did I'm sure he wouldn't add on 1200% in delivery charges, VAT and FAT tax!
