I am changing my energy supplier for the first time. I've got lots of quotes online. I only use electricity, we don't have a gas in my building. I'd like to know...:
-What motivated you to choose your energy provider (eg. loyalty card points/ capped prices/ green energy etc)?
-Who do you think represents best value for money?

Thanks!

I'm looking into getting a two piece suite, a sofa bed and another sofa and have come across SofaSofa (http://www.sofasofa.co.uk) who do what sounds like good deals. Has anyone used them? Is the quality of the sofa's ok? I live near London so going to their shop in Cardiff is a bit of a way to go. Any other places that are worth looking at would be appreciated too, thanks.

I recently purchased a new condominium unit during the pre-selling or construction stage. I received a notice that the developer is ready to turnover the unit to me. During the turnover, what should I check about the unit before I accept the unit? I was thinking: check floor area, number of rooms. Any other suggestions?

I am in a Home Economics class, and I am making a quilt. I am supposed to baste it right now, and I need help with it, regarding how to do it by hand. I have three layers; the backing fabric, the batting, and the sewn quilt itself. I'm supposed to have big, long stitches. Can someone please tell me an informative answer on how to baste my quilt? Thank you!

I have a living room lamp that I got from IKEA. It had very bright white light for first 3 weeks but eventually the light turned gloomy and yellow. I tried changing a light bulb (150 W) but it was no use.
Does this ever happen to your lamp?
If you know any good lamp with super bright white light, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

The supports that hold the strings are wooden and the tension has warped them so I can no longer get it in tune. The wood is beautiful and I was wondering if something else could be made from it? I seen an aquarium put in one after it was gutted but I already have an aquarium in my wall and would like some cool ideas for something else. It's been in the family so I really don't want to get rid of it, but as it sits, its useless. Thanks!
