    It feels like October today. I could suffer it during the day, but now it feels just ghastly.

    Been pouring with rain all day, have a streaming cold and feel generally miserable so yes its ON until I go and snuggle under the duvet shortly. It has felt like a grey miserable winter day instead of flaming June
    Only the wind and rain battered purple foxgloves in the garden actually tell me it's supposed to be summer.

    Definitely on.

    It's been horrible here and the rain is still battering the windows. Apparently we've got a few more days of this. :(

    everywhere outside is wet through and more due today and my aches are up and running, cbd definitely today, that plus warm jumper and tights and maybe fingerless mitts. Summer clothes are going to last the rest of my life at this rate

    Same here.....it's chucking it down and blowing a gale.

    My fibro doesn't like it at all. I'm a mass of aches and pains today. Going to start with a mineral salt bath and like you dress warm.
  • Mine definitely is on too, body aches, back horrendous fingers and feet cold. Have just got my warm feet socks out.......raining and blowing a gale outside. Have had to put off driving in to see OH's Drs till tomorrow, roads are flooded, and road works causing long tailbacks.

    I have been playing, learning how to use the thermostats. 5 heating zones here and I am definitely not waiting to winter to work it out. Savings will be spent on keeping me warm, no more frugality as I get older. CH kicked in today and I am leaving it set throughout the year from now, it won`t kick in unless needed

    Yes it's the same in our house as well unless we're on holiday and it gets turned to frost protection which is 5 degrees.

    I've had the electric blanket on the bed the last few nights. Horrible wind and rain, but outside, when "out of the weather", the temperature itself isn't too bad... I've resisted putting the heating on, but I'm back wearing a wintery outfit.

    I'm taking a class of kids on an outdoorsy school trip tomorrow... I'll be wrapping up warm.
