Paying for a home and the bills, sentence 5

Example: in a terraced house in Leeds, Mum opens the energy bill at the kitchen table, goes quiet, then says "The electric's nearly doubled." That evening the heating goes down a degree, Dad watches the smart meter jump when the kettle boils, and everyone is told to keep the doors shut.

Who acts: Mum, heating, Dad, kettle, everyone · What happens: terrace, open, go, say, double, go down · To what, where: energy bill, terraced house, electric, degree, meter jump, everyone · Speech: someone speaks here
