Ann's top energy saving tips
Draughts. Let me start with the obvious one - make sure you don't have any draughts. Seal off your windows and doors.
Full load. If you're using your dishwasher or washing machine make sure you have a full load. 30 degrees. When you are using your washing machine, make sure you have it at thirty degrees. You can get a really good wash that way - in fact, you can drop down to fifteen degrees.
1 degree. Turn your heating down by one degree.
Curtains. Close your curtains when it gets dark.
Boiling water. Only put as much water as you need in the kettle, so if you're making a cup of tea for one, don't fill it to the top.
Light bulbs. Use energy saving light bulbs.
Standby. Turn appliances off, don't keep them on standby.
Family. If you've got a family, watch what your children are doing - they'll cost you the earth if they are leaving their appliances on and they're in their bedrooms for hours playing with their computers or DVDs or whatever.
