Well on my planet that would be a yes. But then my heating stays on 24/7! My heating seems to have come on at some time during monday night but not for many days before & not since.

DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff. Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.

I've had the same winter duvet on all summer! I'm a cold tattie. No heating on yet though as I'm determined to only put it on when absolutely necessary. I bought a heated blanket as everyone seems to be talking about them so that should help. Will be good for when I'm WFH as it gets quite cool.
Great news on the WM. Your cleaner really is a star!Mortgage at 12/07/2022 = £175,000
Mortgage today = £161,690.76
