    We haven't turned ours on yet. Still really warm here in sunny Herefordshire.
    My thermometer in the main room is reading 24 degrees and we're both sitting here in t shirts.

    Happy shopper I can't believe you are wearing all those clothes, I am sat here in jeans and short sleeved t-shirt!

    I really feel the cold! Temperature here inside is 21 degrees cent. and I'm shivering! This is a challenge for me not to have the heating on as I've been known to put it on in the summer. :eek:
  • Would like to be able to turn it on! Very chilly in the mornings at the moment, half an hour from 6.30 would keep the children in bed, I think - but our 15 month old boiler has given up the ghost (yes, you read that right. It's only been in since June last year) and so we have no heating anyway. And only hot water on the immersion heater. :eek:

    Hey ho. No temptation to turn it on, then.

    I'm checking out the thermal vest websites on the net as we speak - OMG I'm turning into my mother, arhhh............. Winnie-the-pooh is warming the bed up nicely (he's my hot water bottle holder) and the OH has just phoned to say he's finished work and will be home in an hour!

    That should make things warmer in bed tonight!!!
