Tight

'Money Is Too Tight Too Mention', as Mr Simply Red might say. In a bid to cut our fuel bills I have implemented two new house rules, the heating should only be in operation between the hours of 5-8pm and at all other times we wear winter woolies when we feel a chill. The penalty for having the heating on outside these hours is a fiver. Should stop my daughter padding around in next to nothing with the radiator on full blast. I have also been turning off all the lights in rooms that aren't in use. Last night I didn't see my daughter's boyfriend in the kitchen and plunged him into darkness as he was fixing the pipe under the sink. Alarmed he jumped up and whacked his head on the cupboard under the sink. I have also been switching off the TV and have taken to reading the TV guide over breakfast instead. Rather good because you can catch up on all programmes simultaneously without the hassle of channel surfing.
