    The advice seemed to be, don't leave things on standby and don't run the washing half
    full. Does anyone still do a half full wash?

    Agree on the light bulbs, although I hate the new ones.

    When I get in from a bike ride I just wack my cycle clothes in the washer.

    Don't know the technicalities, but there must have been a lot of inefficiencies in the generation of electricity.
    My turbo-trainer says I'm doing 100w easily when warming up, so I suspect there must be lots of losses in the system.

    An inside source told me that in the beginning a lot of the cyclists had the resistance turned right down, so they were just cheerfully spinning along but not generating much power.

    It got sorted out later on, but a lot of enthusiasm had been wasted by then, replaced by the sense of dread at having to go back to the bikes for another session of pedalling.
