Just changed over my electricity and gas providers now that the new rates apply. Much cheaper alternatives available after ridiculous hikes by current providers. I will cheers to my money savings! ๐Ÿบ

Argh yes the periodic changeover of providers... That's top of the list of Admin Shit I'll Sort Out Once I'm Several Thousand Kilometres Away From It All. I actually like my current provider and will be using basically no energy until 6 Sep but I know I won't have the headspace to think about it when I get back, and why pay more per day for just connection rates?

I will cheers to your good fortune ๐Ÿบ
