    OFF. We live in a toasty apartment and haven't used the underfloor heating yet.... PLEEEEEEASE get cold soon so I can use the underfloor heating! Currently got the window open (its around 6pm on 1st oct) and can't sleep as its too hot. I love modern builds!

    Off still :)
    The evenings are getting a bit chilly, but I have a lovely blanket while watching telly. Both children still sleeping in summer shortie PJs and with windows open. We are all still in t-shirts (they are for school too) and I can't remember the last time I wore a coat or jumper.
    Could be a different story next week with a cold snap coming.

    No heating on here yet, I will try to hold out until November 1st. I may use the underfloor heating in the bathroom though, is that cheating?

    No heating here yet, in fact I haven't even thought of it yet.

    Off. but the jumper is on, and i've found my slippers! a blanket on the sofa is the only other extra for now. a log fire will be first, hoping to delay the heating for as long as possible...

    but the washing isnt drying very quickly this week and neither is my hair after a shower... hum...

    Still off here, but finding myself closing the windows too now, and opening them slightly at night.

    Won't be long before the dehumidifier is purring away too. :(

    Last year, in my efforts to reduce our gas bill, I rediscovered that delight of my childhood years - a thermal vest. And what a difference it made to keeping warm.

    ours is still off. finding it starting to get a lil chilly in evening's. but putting jumper on and snuggle hubby ( he's like a hto water bottle) kids have thick duvets and pij's so they haven't noticed any cold . youngest son has started wearing a vest under pj's .

    the only time at mo i'm finding i would like heating is 6am in morning when i get up. as bed very very warm but outside of bed it isn't. however once i get going, get washed dressed etc i'm fine. gonna just play it by ear with the heating. if we get to nov it will be fantastic but who knows,lol.
