Family have been here for tea so heating been on low.
The weather is cold very wet and windy but thank goodness no snow0 -
The weather has suddenly turned rather cold...sleeting rain at the moment....snow is expected overnight/tomorrow.
The heating is on - but it actually one cost that I have little/no control over. I live in sheltered accommodation and residents here pay a set amount each month - regardless of how much/little we use. So, as it gets colder I put the heating on!
(I DO have 'extra' need for a reasonably constant temperature my chest isn't overly strong and I have a tendency to bronchitis)
Overnight I will have my 'warm PJs on...and a warm 'wheat-bag' to cuddle underneath my thick winter duvet.....I am taking no chances of getting cold!....only thing I don't do is wear bed-socks - I never did like them!0 -
By the sounds of the weather forecast its very cold temperatures during the day as well as night , its only been 5 here during the day so its been on with the gas during the day , and ive now lit the fire in the sitting room , me and the dawg are toasty....My motto is " one life live it ".....:)0

During this cold spell it's on from 8am til 8pm. By the time it's cooled down I'm in my jimmies, bath robe and new fur lined bootee slippers with a mug of tea beside me. Tomorrow I'll be baking most of the day so may turn it off.0
