This is a conservative costing but it is an amazing figure. We have a fire that does one room i will be looking for one that has a back boiler to provide hot and supplies radiators.

As i have said before we are looking at buying some land about 5 acres to start a small holding one of the crops we will be growing will be trees to supply our own wood for heating and cooking, it will also contain abore hole for water supplies, rainwater harvesting system, compost toilet, and either solar, wind or hydro that will depend on the location.

Work this out buying land looks cheap compared to what these robbing companies will be charging.

Thats a hell of a figure UKS, thats over £100 per WEEK?? i would never use oil heating, partly on moral ground cos its a finite resourse and secondly and mainly cos of the cost, but thats just because i'm tight
