Thanks everyone for all the feedback and encouragement.
I haggled for everything that I had to buy new or pay for.
I bought the large suit 2nd hand 6 years ago and had it recovered.
I bought the kitchen which was 15 years old when I bought it.
The older part of the house has 2ft thick walls.
I got a unit from a JTowner which I have installed in the kitchen alcove which
stores dishcloths, medicines, and other bits and pieces.
People are amazed at what I have done on little or nothing. Everything that
has been done has been done with a long term view, in other words, this is
for life.
I use Eudemon light bulbs which are long life energy saving. Thanks to a
JTowner I am composting.
The house is cosy and the energy here feels good.
