Mine hasn't been on since March. With any luck I won't need it until October. Am in the south east though and it's still over 20 degrees daytime temp here.

Not much, about 4-5 times. Mostly to dry clothes though. We usually have it on more, even during the summer, but we got the loft insulated last September and have seen a huge difference.

It actually matters not if we as a nation are using less fuel. It's clear that the energy companies plan to maintain/increase their profits no matter how 'little' we use.

No, Last used the end of April. Normally I'd stop using it in March.

I last used my heating at the beginning of June :eek: I had to in order to get some washing dry. We are sorting out the insulation so hopefully we can hang out a bit longer before we put it on again.

If it's cold, it's on. If it's warm, it's not.

The thermostat only detects the room temperature, it cares not what month it is.

Not had mine on since March and hopefully it wont be on till December. I am in Yorkshire too. I am very tight with mine as cannot handle the big bills. Total cost of my gas and electric last year was £800 so I am well below what most people use. My hubby and son not impressed though.
