    Off off offf

    For 4 days now - OH is now in T shirt without heating and no complaints - ( hoping that by keeping it off until 1st Nov this year, he is "aclimatising" if that is the word.

    May need to put it back on next week when in-laws arrive from spain though.

    Well, ours is till set to come on first thing in the morning, I just CAN'T get out of bed to a cold house in the mornings.

    But it is off after 8:30 a.m. and I have resisted the urge to turn it on in the evenings (altho bought a new bigger telly for our bedroom last week , so watched evening TV in bed to stay warm)
    I try not to get too stressed out on the forum. I won't argue, i'll just leave a thread if you don't like what I say. :)

  • OFF.

    I have this no heating after March 31st and before October 1st rule, Husband ignores it sometimes *rolls eyes* but it generally works for us

    Chopped ours down again. Totally off in the morning now and on from 6pm - 10pm in the evening - saving another 2 1/2 hours. Aiming to have off completely by end of the month (or sooner if the evenings get warmer). Front room fire has been off completely since we had the bill!!!
