Tempted !!! I've lit it the past 2 nights. Sat in my woolly socks and big fleece at the moment. It's the only heating we have. Really icy wind and I have to walk the dog soon.
I have storage heaters which I turned off a couple of weeks ago when the weather really warmed up. I really dont want to put them on again until September/October time, so have been using a fan heater to take the chill off.
I did get dressed - but put my dressing gown on top. I'll just swap to a warm coat when I go out. I'm too mean to put the heating on. It's drizzling and 17 degrees here just outside London.
I spent Thursday evening sitting with my big fleecy dressing gown on over my clothes. Husband rolled his eyes ? Last night when he got home from work he said, "Blimey it's cold" so that was it, I put the heating on. Bliss ☺️
No matter how hot the day is it gets chilly in the evenings up here in the NE. The heating goes on, or the woodburner gets lit, quite often in the summer.
I've got an electric fire on as I write this. It's so cold, amazingly so after all the recent heat. I went outside to do some gardening but the wind is so cutting that I soon came back indoors again.
I've put some heating on but the woodburner is cleaned down now for the summer and the other day we washed our light shades which get dusty over the winter.
DH would leap out of his chair and grab a box of matches with glee if I suggested lighting it but I'm blowed if I'm going to start cleaning out ashes in JUNE!
