    Actually it probably seems colder as i`ve washed my hair and its wet so it seems that i`ve answered my own question. Hairdryer isn`t going on though :D

    My 3yo dd was really grumpy after her bath tonight so I dried her (all over not just her hair) with the hairdryer - made her laugh and cheered her up and cheaper than turning the heating on lol

  • Folded tonight - it has turned bitterly cold so I have put the heating on until 10pm

    Me too, had it on tonight for the first time this autumn, for a couple of hours. Probably wouldn't have done if alone, but had a visitor. Hastily put loads of damp washing on the radiators to make the most of the heat (otherwise it is taking days to dry).
  • Heating still not on :) dear son sat in his coat moaning how cold it was this afternoon, I had the windows open so closed them, will not put the heating on till the 1st November

  • Definately off, the nights are cooler but it was really warm in the day time yesterday. The coldest room in the house is our bedroom which is north facing so we have to duvets and a fleece blanket which keeps us toastie. I can cope with the couple of minutes in the cold that it takes me to undress/get dressed so hating will be staying off for a whiile yet. Kids are used to it.
  • still off here, its still warm in my house and i'm still opening windows and doors when i'm cooking. it gets too hot but around 9pm I find it gets a bit of a chill in the air
