So, has the heating gone on yet?

I’ll own up, last night it was on a for a little bit, first time.

Strange though the thermostat was showing 17.5, but it felt colder than that.

I came home half an hour ago and asked the wife why she had the heating on.

Re-training for her!

Definitely , it’s weird I feel warm tonight. No heating on, could most probably wear a t shirt. But last night, there was definitely a cold nip in the air.

We've had ours on for the odd hour here and there.

You need a 'Snuggly' which I have, bought from Matalan, about 2 year ago, warm as hell they are. No heating on tonight.

Although I did have it on yesterday, but there was definitely a nip in the air.

Yes, wife has had on sporadically since September which drives me insane, plus lights on inside and outside so it’s like Blackpool illuminations.

We are on an old style gas meter - the rotating digits - and I’m resisting a Smart meter even though EDF keep telling me the old meter has to be changed by law.

Have had a few of the log burners going now and then just to keep the chimneys clear but always check for nesting birds or stray birds first - it’s surprising how many birds manage to fall down through the log burner baffle. The cutest one was a soot black Robin who was rescued, cleaned up and released safely.

One of the nicest feature things in the house here is a cast iron cooking range which is always on throughout the year although it is a money pit - I would never get another one.

Got rid of the hot tub as way to expensive to run.
