    Currently on for a few hours to dry my bedding, getting other washing done at the same time to make use of the warmth too! Sweltering in my flat now though at 20C!

    Definitely colder here today, and the rain doesn't help! As soon as i get wet, i get cold.
    but the heating is still off. Been out all day, got home at 1.30 and pottered about doing stuff and then put my cardi on when i sat down to keep from getting too cold.

    will hold off as long as I can as DD #1 due end of the month which will prob mean having the heating on more than we normally would thsi winter

    Still off, been lovely and mild with doors and windows open throughout the day, although it did get a bit chilly sitting reading this evening so put a sweater on, then had to take it off an hour later. Here's hoping we can all hold out til at least the end of the month :)

    Still off here too, i did give in a couple of nights and used the small halogen fire for an hour, relatively mild here for being October, long may it continue!

    we have just turned it on a couple of days ago but just for 1 hour prior to getting up in the morning to take the chill off as otherwise it is freezing at 6am! The Mrs would like it on 24/7 but I'll take the fuse out if she does that :D

    It is still quite warm here, so mine hasn't been on yet.

    In the Evenings I have jeans and a light weight top on and I am more than warm enough, even DD hasn't moaned yet. So until I have to resort to a jumper and wearing pyjamas/night clothes etc. mine is definitely staying off. :p
