Pauluk, yes, we have a combi gas boiler (For non-brits: A gas fired water heater that provides heating through piped raditors and "on demand" hot water, ie no hot water cylinder, its heated as and when needed)
The setup is basically a large turn of the (20th) century house with communal kitchen and bathroom, so much like any house really, just coin metered bedrooms, which are now bypassed (They do take the old large 50p coin), so its all a bit of a muddle. We are metered and billed directly by the PoCo, and as a house of 5 guys manage an average of £100 a month!!!
Diversity seems to have gone out of the window here really. Each room is on a 30A rewirable (yuck!) fuse, but the total loading in each room is only that of a 5A light and 15A radial. Its the other circuits that are a bit concerning.
