Just when they are sitting down to breakfast - I'm asked to switch off!

1 Jan 1950

283 Just when they are sitting down to breakfast— I'm asked to switch off! "Just when the family is sitting down to breakfast—when we all appreciate a nice warm room and I've water to heat for the day's work in the home—they have to ask me to switch off! Why pick on me anyway—I'm sure the people who write these peak warnings haven't the faintest idea what a housewife's life is like..." Yes, it is difficult. But we are not asked to use less electricity. Only to plan our day to do most household tasks before and after Peak Hours.
