Whilst we have used the recruiting image of Lord Kitchener in jest, it ensures that we are reminded of the immense sacrifices made in both World Wars. David's father won the Military Cross liberating Wuustwezel, Belgium in October 1945, yet 97 of his comrades were killed liberating that town. Each of those brave 97 men could have lived to father children, and each one could have lived full and productive lives. We will remember them.

Overcharged for Electricity and Gas

We have just had a very nasty bill from Atlantic for gas and electricity. The bills for the last year had all been estimated. Following a recent meter reading the bill they sent sought to charge us for the whole of the sum underpaid, which mostly related to last winter, at the recent well publicised higher rate. We questioned this and as a result they have reduced our bill by 11%.

Well worthwhile making that phone call! Spread the news!
