Saundra, I have a really good tip on how to save electricity!

If I'm making a late night cuppa, I don't put the kitchen light on. I just open the backdoor and stick my head outside.
That sets off the new neighbour's recently-installed security light over her kitchen door.
It's so bright, it lights up our kitchen, and lasts long enough to boil the kettle and make the cuppa!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :cute:

Adolf the pigeon is still with us, we hadn't seen hm for a while.
Adolf has a very bad left leg which he seems to compensate for by shooting his right leg up and out - exactly like a goose step! :o
To see him walk across the lawn is a sight to see! :lol: :lol:

Oh we will Saundra. Getting cooler now, but still warm enough for a bbq, even if we have to eat it inside ;) Grumpy can be outside, wrapped up :lol:
