Have you started using the aul heating?

Jesus Wept · 21-10-2010 09:04PM #1

Haven't had cause to use it yet but I think the tide could be turning.
How about you?

FreudianSlippers · 21-10-2010 09:05PM

Yeah had to turn it on yesterday and today. Also yesterday morning my car was seriously frosty.

YFlyer · 21-10-2010 09:05PM

Since Sunday

Terry · 21-10-2010 09:06PM

Yeah. Yesterday and today.
It's off now though. Being fat has its advantages.

Casey_81 · 21-10-2010 09:06PM

Yep for sure, its been really frosty these past few mornings...

alwaysadub · 21-10-2010 09:06PM

Yep. Have lit a few fires in the last couple of weeks, and have had the heating on a couple of times too-was on earlier actually.

Live in an apartment, so the apartments below mine heat my apartment. I save a fortune on heating bills.

Money I can put towards my crippling mortgage.

Jesus Wept · 21-10-2010 09:07PM

I'm winning against all of you.

I'm thinking the place I'm living may have a B2 ber rating, but only guessing this from googling, didn't get one when I moved in (it should have had one though).

Have been wondering if I have benefited from this. there is one floor below and one above me.
It's been swelteringly warm the last couple of months.

LowOdour · 21-10-2010 09:08PM

it will be time to turn up the heat on them...nearly cried yesterday morning when i saw frost on my car. The horrors of last year kicked in

Swampy · 21-10-2010 09:08PM

Blasting it for the sheer luxury of it.

themandan6611 · 21-10-2010 09:09PM

Heating this week, open fire at the weekend, electric blanket last night.

Bought a pair of gloves today.

phasers · 21-10-2010 09:11PM

It's been on this past week, it's fcuking freezing around here. I even had to de-ice the car yesterday morning....

Although my room is so draughty it does not help, only thing for that room is 2 duvets and socks in bed

You live in your car? Damn, things must be getting really bad these days.

Probably the only plus of living in an apartment.

The electric blankets been on though...god i love that thing

Posy · 21-10-2010 09:20PM

My central heating doesn't work so it's up to me to earn a wage while it sits around all day, not even warming the house.
My house is bloody freezing so I've had my electric heater on. But I've been sleeping with a hot water bottle in my bed since September because I live in such a dank draughty ice cold sh!thole.

They were separate thoughts.

starbelgrade · 21-10-2010 09:24PM

I've had the heating on for the past few weeks. I don't see the point in being cold.

flyton5 · 21-10-2010 09:28PM

I like to turn the heating up full. Then if it gets too warm I open windows one by one til I find the right temperature...

Asphyxia · 21-10-2010 09:30PM

Yes have it turned on for the past few evenings so I am nice and toasty at my house

policarp · 22-10-2010 04:26AM

Central heating is for wimps.
Readybrek and star jumps is the way to go...

Tar.Aldarion · 22-10-2010 04:29AM

Elenxor · 22-10-2010 06:33AM

Yep..been on for a week!
what is the price of 1000 ltrs of Kerasene at the moment..anyone know?

mistermouse · 22-10-2010 06:46AM

Now you are going to start a massive panic in the country like the one over in the economics thread where everyone thinks they should move their money abroad...

Everyone else is doing it so we should turn on the heating.

Actually, if it annoys the green party, I think I'll turn it on too :pac:
