Is your heating ON or OFF?

Very mild here. I was at Chalkwell beach yesterday and it was like summer with the amount of swimmers. Still off here and I have the windows open at night still.🙂

I hope that we can all afford to have some heating on after the budget.

I put my heating on for half an hour this morning to dry the laundry do I could put it away and do another load! It is still nice and mild outside, but I need a new washing line.

Its still wonderfully mild here for 1st November! If it stays this way I shall get the garden sorted this weekend

Still off.
Sitting room at 15.9 deg C at 04:00 and 17.5 deg C at 19:00 today.
May start heating when falls consistently below 15 deg C

It was 15.0 deg C at 08:00 and only rose to 15.2 deg C by 10:00.
So, as it is now November, I lit the gas fire in my sitting room 12 minutes ago (10:08)

We have the thermostat set to 18c from half six to 9am, and half five to 9pm, 15c between that and 12c overnight. It's been flicking on for a bit in the mornings, but rarely outside of that. 

I have a new electric throw so I can keep myself nice and toasty if I'm having a lazier day - barely needed to turn it on yet, but it's certainly handy for warming up quickly.

The thermostat has caused the heating to come on at least in the mornings in October. I check the weather forecast and wear extra layers as necessary. I have had to use the tumble drier several times as well when the washing has hung out all day and is still damp.
The bill has gone up by £31.95 for the month.

I had my heating on for a day, but thankfully the warm spell means that I have been able to turn it off again.

I'm feeling cold so I have switched the heating on for an hour or two. I'm sitting watching TV in a sleeping bag and with a scarf too. I sometimes feel chilly when I'm tired, but I don't want to go to bed yet.

Whilst it wasn't too bad last night, it felt true November when I went out for a stroll this afternoon - I wanted to walk whilst it was still light but it was cold, grey and drizzling. The sleeping blanket at the bottom of the blanket box is going to get an outing now!
