Oh well...

It certainly could have been far worse.  Almost got blown over on walk with Luce this morning but she loved it even if she did have horizontal ears!  Lucky she didn't take off.  I suspect that the fallen pole is the reason that A & J have lost power and phones.

Most of the day spend on compiling a spreadsheet of electricity and gas usage over the past year and trying to work out if it might be economical to have my gas fired Aga converted to electricity.

This might seem mad but in the summer it get far too hot and so it gets turned down to pilot light and I have manage with a portable induction hob and mini oven which drive me mad.  The alternative would be to strip out the Aga replan the area and install a new electric cooker and units which I think would not be much less than the conversion costs.

Plus only a days disruption and I get a fully controllable Aga for summer use.  So far the figures seem to indicate that it would, surprisingly work out costing less to run!
