Cheers Charly. I just had a shuftie. Unfortunately I don't get any of the benefits listed unfortunately. My boiler is old and dying. The pilot goes out and we always need a plumber to relight it. Grrrr.

I can't see too much wrong with a community group gaining some benefits for its community. It's not coming from taxes as far as I can see.

We probably all think so. It looks like the Kashmir Youth Project have done a good job liaising with Scottish Power, but help and info for reducing power bills does need to be made equally available to everyone, and quickly too, with winter on the horizon.

Yes, this should be something the council fights to obtain for all the town, but I can't knock those who have applied for it and got it.

Todays' news on gas and electric is that prices will rise beyond the realm of mathematics.
