RE: Gas Useage

["Christopher Purves" <CHRIS_PURVES@xxxxxxx>]

Here is a chart of my gas usage up to August (when my automation pc
broke!)

Ignore the left hand axis label - its meter units and pounds respectively.

I use gas for cooking and hot water only (heating is via aircon).

If I understand you correctly you are using around 2 units per day ?

my daily units are=20

Just as a check It looks like I am calculating the cost of a unit as
around=
=A31

I think that means my units are in m^3 - I am sure someone else can chime
i=
n here.

In summary I am paying around =A330 per month for hot water and cooking
gas=
.
