Energy Efficency
I thought I would indulge myself with my 600th post, I was going to do football, but I wouldn't want to crow about the 6 place difference between Stoke and Wednesday as this could well offend one of the regulars ;-)

So instead I am shamefully plugging this site:-

http://www.est.org.uk/

You can come and have a free energy check done for you.

2. This is one of the best things about DU...
is seeing how folks all over the world are dealing with all kinds of different issues. And this one will become increasingly important, in short order.

4. Thanks
It has taken over 2 1/2 years though as I'm not the most prolific poster in the world.

5. No offence about that whatsoever!

We did have a 0-0 draw on the first day after all didn't we? :-)

Now if only Wednesday can start winning games, and maybe find a striker without a broken leg we might be OK. Here's to Stoke doing well for the rest of the season. :beer:

8. To Stoke and Wednesday
:toast:

I'd say being 1st and 2nd, but I'm a realist, and I'd settle for mid table obscurity for Stoke.

6. For geeky types
this site calculates the maximum power consumption of different PCs. (my big energy sin)

9. Cheers!
Congratulations on 600+ and especially for not wasting it on a
football thread :-)

On a more serious note, I'd like to thank you and your company for
the grant (in conjunction with my local authority) that has just
enabled me to get my cavity walls insulated!

It was something "on the list" for a disappointingly long time but
finally achieved, partly by having my conscience pricked from posts
by you leading me to the EST site.

Well done and here's to even more productive & enjoyable posts!

:toast:

(PS to other UK DUers: Please check out the site in the OP - not only
does it make sense but it also saves you money.)

10. I have more to do myself
I have draft proofing and extra roof insulation on my list before this winter.
