I can't even imagine having to heat the house with electricity... Every single house here has a gas connection for water and heating (and the stove, if they didn't replace it with an induction or something like that)
And I do love our gas heater in winter. It makes the livingroom very cozy!

Hmm, when I ordered that new fridge, they were so friendly to put it in the garage

And if I knew the address of the place where I work, I might have had it sent there. But I still need to look it up (the company moved at the start of July).
The worst part: it would have fit in the mailslot... but DHL wants a signature.
