Prefer the cold over this rain in torbay, been none stop since about 3am even with the sub zero temperatures its been relatively fine for driving due to the roads being salted.

The only thing I miss about East anglia is the winters weren't so wet. (grew up there)
But that's the only thing!

Wind for my cheaper electric, yes thank you.
Looks like winter is finishedStill those wishing warmer weather will get to enjoy all the wind & rain that will come with it
It looks like warmer air will be here at least till Christmas, but we cant say the cold is gone yet, we might still get more cold air in Jan/Feb time. Usually those 2 months are the coldest part of winter as well.

Will hopefully save on a bit of heating! The cold weather has massively increased our usage just to keep the house at anything resembling a liveable temperature. Can’t believe how long the snow has stuck around.

Yup if it wasn't for the fuel bill at the very least I could tolerate it.

Yes go to google and type "small, portable oil heater"
The freezing weather has for some reason caused my garage roof to leak like mad.
Maybe it's cracked the felt and rubber paint.
Going to be a while before it can get sorted.
It's already destroyed some skirting board and shelves.
I hate wet weather.

Screwfix and Tool Station are your best bet imo. Homebase has outrageous pricing for radiators.
do oil radiotors cost less to run than electric heater or central heating ?
I found a page which analysed oil vs electric fan heaters, they said cost was similar assuming same wattage, but it was just different characteristics for the heating, fan heater gives that burst of heat targeted with a higher "feels like" temp but of course move out that range and will feel much colder. Oil radiator acting more like normal radiators, but weaker.
Both should be cheaper than central heating assuming you only using one, not multiple.
No chance it's cheaper than central heating.
