So in order to benefit from cheap electricity from offshore wind farms, we the customer are going to have to fork out £60 billion pounds to get it to us. ( part of our daily charge has been going towards this for years). Think it's time to tell them that if they want on line payment of my bill, then they are going to have to contribute to my new laptop and broadband costs
Packed in my online payments years ago, about the same time as we beat the petrol companies :emoticon-0136-giggl

You say you only pay for what you use - but we are also going to pay for what others use- Ofgems instruction to the companies to apply an extra charge to paying customers to cover the arrears of others . Ofgem helping them keep up their cash flow and increasing profits

Aye I do the same thing except pay it the day after it arrives,
Every year they say I have to open a dd to get the cheaper rate so I do. After the first month just cancel it and pay for what you use. They never alter the rate ( eon ) they just leave it<laugh> mind they are corrupt bastards anyway if you go full dd method, so bollocks to them.
 
Big news on women's pensions coming soon. Maybe it's just me but women want equality in everything, which I agree with, and have always practiced in my businesses. Except pension age, where they were historically better off than men, before the levelling up.
Back to 60?

What it means is we want equal rights if we are worse off than 'x group' but if we are better off we don't want equal rights and stay how we are thanks!

When you look at statistics women live longer so if anyone should be working longer? Maybe the early retirement and traditionally the woman being the housemaker is the reason for those stats and we will see a change in future generations?
 
So it turns out that we have a new digital marketing partner (ROAR) who joined yesterday.

And it also turns out that their Managing Director is a mag…. How do I know this? He’s my cousin!!!

Really good at what he does though so it won’t get in the way
