With the cost of energy still sky-high, many people are looking for ways to avoid using the most energy-intensive devices in their home, such as their central heating or tumble dryer.
And one great-grandad has come up with a genius solution to getting clothes "really dry" without having to turn on his tumble dryer - just by using a small electric fan instead.
Graham Prosser explained to Derbyshire Live that he realised cold air can dry clothes quicker, and cheaper, than the hot air generated by a tumble dryer, so he has ditched his energy-guzzling appliance in favour of a 20-watt fan that would otherwise be used to keep cool during the blistering summer months.
