I’ve been informed by Octotracker that my @OctopusEnergy daily tracker tariff rate for electricity will be 41% dearer tomorrow than today. Yikes. It’s up and down like a yo-yo.

Was nice to sit next to a real Christmas 🎄 tree in the dentists earlier. It had a lovely subtle scent. I’ve missed that. Some of the decorations were quite apt for the environment too.

Highly recommended if you’re into ’Ghost Stories for Christmas.’ This one’s on BBCFour next Monday evening. Very creepy.

This actually answers my question why my electricity was 16% dearer today than yesterday and 11% dearer tomorrow than today. After Storm Darragh. It’s scandalous!

Have you seen the cost of electricity on the Octopus Tracker tariff tomorrow? It’s up 16% in my area. Yet half the electricity being generated at the moment is through wind power thanks to #StormDarragh

I’ve got this handy little app that tells you the cost of electricity and gas in your area when you’re on the Octopus Energy Tracker tariff. It’s just told me that electricity will be 16% more expensive tomorrow. After all this wind thanks to #StormDarragh !

Octopus Energy have an energy saving session between 1 and 2 pm tomorrow Sunday afternoon, if anyone's interested. You have to be on an electric smart meter with them to qualify. And initially opt into it too I hasten to add. Just a reminder.
