Blimey, where are you?
Our heatings on but only to top up a degree or two.

The outer SW Londons. The heat just goes if you don't keep things topped up.

Obviously, no women live here. wink

I really should dive into the airing cupboard and sort out my heating timer to make it off-off and not just off. It keeps coming on and despite the thermostat being rammed against its lowest setting, the radiators are getting warm water pumped through them every now and again. It makes this place sweltering even though the French doors are open.

I'm in the just into Surrey next to SW London and haven't switched on yet.
Noticeably chillier tonight.

Last year I switched on on the 23rd,didn't last long as it broke soon after.

You weren't serious about pipes fracturing shirley.

I had 14 degrees showing earlier after coming home to an empty house, needed to put the heating on straight away just to keep the children warm! I personally agree with the above sentiment and would just stick a jumper on!

Just got back from Geneva where the weather is almost summery, and it's unbearable cold in London. As much as it hurts the wallet I've cranked it up to 19 - normally set it to 16.

Since I started a new job last year I've turned into a right flange. Its 24 deg no matter what the weather.

I always used to be the one turning the heating off at home, sitting in my shorts and t shirt really hot while the Mrs was moaning that its cold. These days im now the one turning it on.

Why did the job change things? Or am I going to regret asking that.

I'm fine outside in almost any weather but sitting around at home need it to be 21/22C.
