How to delay switching the central heating on

Hot water bottles, definitely!

Be careful you don't get ill from the cold, though - air out the house just prior to putting the heating on (especially if you're drying washing indoors) so that the place doesn't get damp. It's better to cut down on the luxuries and put the heating on for a bit than to get bronchitis, especially if you have young children around!

Just my 2p. Keep warm all

And be sociable. Visit all your friends regularly, preferably those with the heating on. If you feel guilty about using their heat, bake some cakes/biscuits to take with you. It's a win win situation.

Dancing in the evening? hoovering when you feel cold during the day, (it works!).

hot drinks, draught excluders, blankets on the sofa whilst watching tv. extra bedding at night.

I grew up without heating in the bedroom. I hated it when we got central heating, too hot and dry. I think I've got soft since then and feel the cold more.
