This week, we had another delivery of heating oil. Our first one was about 10 days ago.
With the way things are concerning oil prices, we had to learn the hard way that at present we are at the mercy of the heating oil company concerning delivery so we had no choice but to order well in advance.
Surprisingly, they were able to deliver two days later compared to the last time when it took them close to three weeks.
We are £1000 poorer after both deliveries but at least we don’t have to worry about running out of heating oil. Instead we might end up worrying about heating oil theft of which there are plenty about at the moment. Thankfully our oil tank is fitted with an alarm and a lock.
