£75 but have spent a lot on upgrading the house

New boiler, triple glazed windows, loft insulation etc. The difference is that my heating bills when I moved in was £140 10 years ago. The new boiler literally slashed £50 off my bills instantly.

House is heated to 18-19’c most of the day. Have 2 young kids so can’t be too cold.
