Re: Are You Mean Or Generous When It Comes To Using..Water, Electricity Or Gas?

We use our heating as and when we need it usually leaving it on about 20 and turning it down when it gets to hot which has been a lot just lately.I only use the washing machine once a week but it could be two or three loads and use the dryer only when needed . and both washing machine and dryer are only used on our cheaper night time tariff. we dont have a water meter and I dont want one. we shower and very rarely use the bath but I have to water my garden in the summer which consumes a lot.

Being environmentally conscious and somewhat frugal, I water the garden regularly, take two long showers a day, leave lights on when unnecessary, use air conditioning in summer and ducted gas heating in winter. In short, if it makes me comfortable and happy, I do it and damn the cost and my minor contribution to global warming.
