Thank the good Lord that me and mr wee drop installed solar panels this May. It powers the house on standby even on a dull day and heats the water tank without using oil central heating. 
I hope this winter is a mild one because energy bills are sharply increasing. 
2020 Bingo was interesting.

Apparently part of the solution to the energy crisis is air fryers and electric blankets! (at least according to sales in the UK)

The electric blanket I do get since it should save energy by warming a much smaller area. Not so sure about the air fryer though.

One other thought....neither work if there is no power...a sleeping bag may be a better investment than an electric blanket.

That and a kerosene area heater. 
Folks you are on your own...Plan and act accordingly!

I will never claim to have all the answers. Depending upon the subject; I am also aware that I may not have all the questions much less the answers. As a result I am always willing to listen to others and work with them to arrive at the right answers to the applicable questions.

Air fryers? I'd A never thought about that. Good to know.

(I do have an excellent sleeping bag though) 😁
