 ;D Ohh....that is scary..and washing pants would have used more electric and more money ::)
They should print with large red letters on front of the statement "THIS IS NOT YOUR NEXT PAYMENT..it's only a yearly statement.."..well now I remember not to c..p my pants when letterbox drops mine :-X

debster - your annual bill is - almost to the penny - the same as mine. For three rooms, kitchen and bath I can't grumble because I also have a freezer in the shed and a pond pump and filter which is on 24/7.

My next quarterly electric bill is going to be about £300 and that's just for a 1 bedroom house!
I'm going to change supplier to OVO after it comes.

My annual electric bill is only £391 only two of us.  Since we are being very economical, can I have my 100 watt light bulbs back so I can read in the evening?
