Warm weather is great for saving money

This just hit me today, the warm weather has cut down on the bills, no gas heating being used, no fire being lit, no clothes dryer being used, oven being used less as more bbq and salads, it's all good:)

Agree, mostly! Would never light a fire in July , and no clothes drier.. no extras though like ice creams etc

We'll end up paying for the good weather somehow. If it's not in the form of an actual tax (under the excuse of improving the mains water network or global warming) it will be in the form of prolonged sh1te weather down the line.


No such thing as 'free' nice weather.
