Mine is still on, but am now starting to have it on timers again and not on most of the time.
I have also just been working out what my next bill will be, i'll have to check it compared to last year. Mine will probably be more though as this year the blokie has been spending half his time at mine so heating on more than usual......:eek:Yep...still at it, working out how to retire early.:D....... Going to have to rethink that scenario as have been screwed over by the company. A work in progress.0 -
Just an hour in the morning to warm the bathroom, then 3 hours in the evening. Will be interesting to see what the winter has cost me as I changed suppliers last year.0

I'm feeling freezing today. The heating was off but then went back on and I'm thinking about getting the hot water bottle out again. What happened to Spring?:(HOUSE MOVE FUND £16,000/ £19,000

Manually cancelled ours tonight for the first time. It's lovely and warm here. The timer will bring it on again in the morning. We had a ground frost this morning but it won't be long before the heating is off permanently.0

OFF. no heating of any type.
Turned the CH off this morning as The weather has turned so warm.The secret to success is making very small, yet constant changes.:)0 -
I turned the heating off in the morning about 2 weeks ago. I only had it on for 2 hours in the evening and that's turned off now.0

Mine was switched off at the beginning of March as it's been quite mild 'down south'. Hopefully my gas/electric bill will be a lot lower this month :j0

I'm in the North East. Have turned the combi boiler town and thermostat down to 18.0

I switched mine off completely yesterday, after running it at 16-18 for a few weeks. It was really only kicking in for the mornings, was fine during the evenings as it got lighter. I would have switched it off earlier but soft southern DH insists on it being on. I have made huge progress with him this year though, he's finally realised it's cheaper and easier to heat himself with jumpers and blankets than run the rads at 25. Didn't go over 20 once this winter!0

It's easter holidays for me, so I'm home during the day. It tends to get a bit cold mid-afternoon, so the heating goes on for a few hours between about 2 and 5pm.
If I was at school during the day, it would probably be off completely.Because it's fun to have money!
