also if your baby is only 18 months old i guest law years useage did not include baby water for 6 months of the year, i bet you use alot more water since the baby has been around.
Na, apparently acording to the water board it is so the people can get a reading from their machines that they use to read it. After speaking to them they said it could be giving a false reading so will come out and have a look.
Even so with the baby, i very much doubt that she uses the same amount of water as the mrs and i put together! Even though there may be a few extra loads of washing i can't see our useage more than doubling!
I'll keep you all informed if your interested!
