    Random question..........

    When do you all think about putting your central heating on? Seeing as we having this chilly snap I was just wondering. Me so far have just put on big cardie and put the sofa throw round my tootsies if they get cold, as I absolutely refuse to put the heating on! I also refuse to put it on for most of September!

    Also what is the best way to control your heating (I have always wondered this) keep it on constant but very low? have it on a timer???

    The last couple of years we've had a really good autumn and haven't put the heating on until October half term holiday. It's only on in the morning to start with! We have really noisy heating and can't sleep if it's too warm so I couldn't have it on all the time. DH suffers from headaches if we have the heating on in the bedroom at night as well so it's only on for a couple of hours in the morning and about four/five hours in the evening. The rest of the time I make everybody put jumpers on and tell them to stop sitting around doing nothing!

    I also feed them gruel in the morning, give them bread and milk for tea and get the dog to sleep on their feet if they complain of being cold in bed.;)

    Haha I can just imagine you children - Please mum can i have some more - MORE MORE......

    I dont' think I put my heating on till october last year (but then had it on till march/april. ugh no i cannot sleep if it is too warm either.

    Do you know what is better leaving it on all the time on low or having it on timer? I normally have it on for an hour in the morning and then back on half an hour before I come home - o and occasionally I have it on all day if we are lucky at the weekend!! haha and on Mr Looloos day off

    Apologies for not posting this week, Monday was no 14 :j. Tuesday was a spend day and on Wednesday I was invited to a private function with Liz Earle at the Sloanne Sq store (Liz Earle is the skincare that I use), I met my friends for lunch, ended up spending the afternoon drinking cocktails (£10 each :eek:) and in the evening we went to the store event, one of the best nights I've had in ages, of course I had to buy buy buy....:eek:.

    Thursday was no 15 :j:j:j my target met and today was a spend day as son needed school uniform and all the usual stationery stuff......grrrr.

    Spoon please amend my target for August to 17. Off to amend signature now. xxx
