Funny, 30% of the bulbs in the house came as already energy-efficient bulbs, none of them have blown. I hear that solar can save you a small fortune on your energy bills so great to be having that installed.

Should be part of the building code now that its done as standard while they're putting the roof up anyway, so long as you've got sun-facing tiles.
It's weird because they are offering them in the development I'm moving to but in the one down the road they are not. I also think they should offer them as standard for all properties SW/SE facing pitched roofs (mine is SW facing).

B&Q were selling Philips energy saving bulbs for 10p each, I wish I picked some up! Hopefully when I next go they'll have the offer on again as I've seen it twice now.

Did you get the developer to add 'Finishing Touches' to your house? Also, did you have much of a snagging list or whatever the terminology is?
