I looked to see if there was a thread asking if anyone’s put their heating on, trying to justify doing it myself. But no, everyone else is nice and warm, snug, comfortable.
It’s grey and wet here and the temperature indoors is 15. I’m so cold, despite a return to jumpers and socks and sitting under a blanket. It’s June and has no right to be cold.
Please tell me you’ve got your heat on.

The heating has been on for morning showers, also as and when if the thermostat picks up indoor temperature is below 19 degrees. As my Mum was heard to say - Flaming June.

DH brought logs in for me to light the wood burner which I did this afternoon.
I would really like some warm June weather.

I've had my heating on today.
I'm never sure if it's me, or the weather, but on it went.

MT62 "I’ve just changed my bed & put back on my clean electric blanket." I took mine off weeks ago and regret it now. How do you clean yours, can you really wash them? Putting blankets on top of my quilt and warming up a wheatie bag for bedtime. Heating is off because its oil-fired, goodness knows when we'll be able to afford to buy some oil!

I put mine on a quick 30 min wash 40 degrees, lowest spin & hung out to dry, or on the maiden.
Make sure you detach the plug 👍🏻 silent night & washed the spare daewoo one too.

I feel better now, yes heating on tonight. 😃

I’ve been putting my heating on in the evening for several nights now to take the chill out of the air. It’s also too cold to get out of the bath if I don’t.

I don’t plan to put the heating on but I lit a fire for a couple of hours this evening, the dogs were still damp after their walk and I was shivery. I’ve never lit the fire in June.
