I'm hoping for a nice mild winter as the heating in this place is terrible and too damn expensive.
All you people wishing for cold can sod right off!

Heating? What heating? I've got a couple of gas fires and some halogen heaters for when it's really cold (not when most Nancy's say it is).

Liking the sound of that forecast! Just sling on another layer (or two) when it's cold - no need for bigger bills all the time!

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realise that the weather is entirely dependent on our perception of what time it is?
Soldato
and daylight savings controls the weather?

Never used those panels, I bought a couple of Radiator Foil 500mm x 5m rolls from Screwfix, for behind the radiators.

Snow on the mountains around us last week and last Wednesday it did'nt go above zero degrees until after one in the afternoon. Heatings been on for weeks now. The summer was a similar pattern to the one we had in 2010 and that turned out to be a hard winter. After getting off so lightly last year i reckon this is going to be a bad one for us up here.

Same here. If I'm getting up at 6:30AM, I need all the help I can get.
Getting the house insulated properly during renovation was a good call.. it was 17.5 degrees this morning when I got up. I haven't had the heating on for several months!

Forecasters are warning that the first blast of cold weather from the Arctic is on its way and will be with us at the weekend. So get those shovels ready.

A bit off topic but does this stuff actually make any difference?
I'm currently in the process of cleaning out the system using Fernox as it hasn't been done in the 15-20 years its been installed
. Going to also take all rads off and rinse them through with a hose and paint behind them. Just wondering if it would be worth getting some of this while the rads are off...Not been too cold here yet. It was like mid summer yesterday. Only had the heating on for an hour a day to let this fernox do its job.

If you live in the NE maybe. Down here in the sarf, we will be still in our budgy smugglers.
