Still avoiding putting the heating on. Wanna stick it to the gas companies how fuck us over year on year by holding off as long as possible. Barely home enough to warrant putting it on anyway.

No and haven't even been tempted to put it on yet! It's still really mild down here!

As every rad has a thermostat and the main thermostat is set it comes on when it needs to never switch it off in the Somer never even comes on unless it drops too low.

Mine has been on for an hour in theb morning when it is chilly or damp, but my building is Tudor, so no insulation here and need to take the real chill off as the only South facing window is in a room I am not using very much

A lot better than last year though, I expect a rebate from SSE!

It's been on a tiny bit, but only really to test the new boiler was working. I always get way too hot in other people's houses!

Mine has been on for 2 weeks now, but just for a couple of hours in the morning to take the chill off and in the evening. Hate mornings so getting up in a cold house is even more difficult

My heating comes on automatically the temperature drops below a certain degree...haven't a clue what. Think it came on as early as July before himself adjusted it.

"Mine broken so no no heating here.....worst luck "

Just beware of your condensation when in an enclosed & cold environment (from hot food, hot drinks, as well as your breath).

I went one winter without any heating on (because as I was rarely home: just a short while in various living spaces, & as I live in a house dated 1888 - high ceilings of around 10' & 6") it costs a small fortune to heat up space that even I can't reach!).

A couple of months later I realised that most of my clothes had mildew on / growing.

Just washed everything with a small amount of bleach included on the water.

I'll cordon off some rooms this winter with liberal sachets of 'silica gel' about to absorb the excess moisture.
