Is there anyone else out there still with no heating?

bbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!Anyone else not got their heating on yet?
we are having our 1960 boiler ripped out as it has died so i have no choice but to have no heating at the moment (BUT even if it was still working i wouldn't use it as it costs a fortune!)
We have one oil filled radiator that we move around the house ( we put it in the lounge for an hr then upstairs for a hour while we get our daughter to bed but i am starting to feel the cold now! ( wonder whether we will actually be in credit with our gas and elec soon!!!??
so is there any other cold bunnies out there too?!

    Well we usually just have the gas fire on. But it is no good now and am having a new gas fire fitted on 10th December, plus new fire surround.

    We have the heating on but not all day, just first thing in the morning and at night.

    I have to wrap up warm most of the time. Roll on December!

  • yes i am fed up of coming in the house and forgetting to take my coat off! we def need the heating sorted lets hope that it will be done before xmas!
  • ours is on but only set at 18degC rather than the 22 is used to be set on.

    our thermostat is out in the hallway which is really drafty so it ends up keeping the heating on far longer than is needed
