Just a bit of fun..

I'm normally from the 'put a jumper on then...' school of thinking.

With the little ones, rooms are supposed to be kept about 18°C so the heating has been put on sparing the last few weeks.

Wot no woolly onesies, your raising wimps Tom

only kidding, with little ones you get an 18 yr 'wimp pass', make the most of the next 5-6 years as you will loose control of the thermostat for at least a decade when they grow tall enough to reach it..

Been off and on for about a week, but is 100% going on tonight. Lovely warm day here ATM, but coming in very cold later.

It's been on for a couple of weeks but then we are trying to keep the puppies warm

[blakey]

I still sit on the sofa by an open back door, its not even cold enough yet to close it let alone put heating on

Put it on a couple of weeks ago to keep Mum warm, I occupy the first floor so that's off, still walking around in a sleeveless gillett and short sleeve shirt when out. Dave

nope not on yet but can see it going on this weekend at some point as it is getting a tad nippy now.

Heating is for wimps.............Can't stand the stuff...............

Mine goes on to dry the washing on a Friday night to Saturday so tonight I can wear my t-shirt otherwise it's off, close the windows, shove a jumper on & thicker socks for a while yet, can't stand the dry air it causes even with humidifiers hung on the radiators and I cannot stand getting into a warm bed - errghh

There's been sleet here today, snow on the hills. OF COURSE THE BLOODY HEATING IS ON!!!!!!!!!!

My heating goes on at the very last possible moment each year . . . . even then I generally build up to the moment by just having the gas fire on to begin with.

Working by the doors in a supermarket which are continually opening/closing - to say nothing of the refrigeration and freezer units behind the Service Desk, you have to be quite hardy . . . . and have a choice of thermal undergarments to wear.

So an unheated house actually feels quite cosy to me in comparison.

Looking at my gas bill the heating is never off.
