Warm thoughts to all who are shivering.
Heating well & truly on here, for the time being at least, it soooo cold, brrrrr!

Have had it on from 4pm until 8pm set to 14 degrees for a while but when I came home early Thurs it was 8 degrees on hall thermostat :eek:

So I have set it on all day at 11 degrees.

Loft is insulated well (Warm front did it + we put extra up) but can't have walls done.

Oh poor you! Can you get some tomorrow? Hope you all manage to keep warm.

debtmess

yes , meant to get some today but kids played up and i stupidly forgot, paying for it big time now in being cold, went to ds3's schools fair and didn't see anywhere to top up, went to go out around 5 but kids were being impossible, it went around 6ish
3 pairs of socks, leggins, jeans, vest 2 tops and a jumper n feet still feel cold, kids all in bed in pj's with fleece all in ones over the top

Snow here and heating still off. Hardly any damp but the house has more drafts then a cheese grater so it keeps that part down. To be honest (I do understand those that are worried or say it should go on) I really am not that cold, I have a duvet and blanket for tv watching, the dogs have coats and blankets and the kitten sleeps under the duvet anyway.

If I were going to stay here I would turn it on but as the move is going to mean a harsher winter without any heating or on tap hot water this seems the best way to get ready for it.
I keep the curtains drawn once it gets slightly dark and have a hat, gloves etc warm food every day so it aint all that scary really

Gosh, where are you going that has a harsh winter and NO heating at all? Even the eskimos have heating!

Blimey - I read about moving somewhere with harsher winters but missed the bit where she said there was no heating :eek:

im the same as you dundeedoll my walls mine cant be insulated either :mad::mad: and my house gets so cold, im even thinking of exchanging as i cant put up with it.

My heating has been on most of the day except when i went out for a few hours but is now turned off. My house seems to hold the heat in more in the evening than during the day.
