Uplugged

In a moment of greenness, we ran around the house and unplugged everything we did not sensibly use ... we disciplined ourselves to turn off computers when not in use, unplugged alarm clocks in dis-used bedrooms, TV/VCR/DVD/XBox - flick , off..... we allowed the fridge, freezer and could not figure out the clock on the microwave...

Then, the moment of truth. The Enmax bill! WE SAVED 30% OF OUR POWER BILL IN ONE MONTH!

We are now reconsidering the need for a fridge during winter....

Right. You can re-set the alarm clock in my room next time I come to visit. It took me at least 14 seconds to set it last time....

Fear not - we have added it to our checklist of tasks to do prior to visitors....
