0 feels like -3 in SO18 tonight according to https://www.wunderground.com/ ...
Might need to run all three e7 storage heaters tonight for the first time this winter!

I'm sure they wont but what else do we hope or aim for - warm weather all year round in the UK?
I empathise with people that will struggle this Winter. My posting history will show the fact I have empathy for people's struggles as we all get them (well, most of us).
Apologies that, in a thread about Winter and how cold it might get, you cant post about quite liking cold Winters

9c feels like 8.5 in Gosport on there. Can confirm, just been for a walk and only a t shirt is required. Could see a frost overnight though, but nothing real cold.0 feels like -3 in SO18 according to https://www.wunderground.com/ ...

Looking like the cold is finally going to hit.
If it stays dry.. Roll on!
If it brings snow.. Yes please.
Not keen on the huge heating bill coming!
Yesterday I was in shorts and a thin midlayer... Today it's still not cold.. But it's dropping sharply.

Edited my earlier post for clarity, writing about tonight, rather than now.
I am looking to see how I compare with last Winter (Dec 1st to Feb 28th)
Elec - 243kWh used
Gas - 831kWh used
At current prices (fixed rate) this would equate to:
Elec - £135.21 (plus £50.63 SC)
Gas - £61 (plus £21 SC)
Total - £196.21 for, what should be, the coldest 3 months (unless I use more)

It’s more than just a struggle for some. It can be fatal, especially for pensionersI'm sure they wont but what else do we hope or aim for - warm weather all year round in the UK?

I won't know my gas price until end of November when I take my read.
Electricity is a bit higher too as in the house more.
196?
Yeah we use waaaay more. October the bill was 115. And we are on 5p gas and 22p electricity. Standing charge is 47p in total (22p and 25p)
I'm expecting up to 150 for November
This is why I'm scared of my fix ending.
Effects though I only took the read on 7th due to being on holiday and heating was only on mid October.. The pound value is high!

Love alone? Mods please delete we don't want to know what he's doing under that blanket
Personally. I'm glad the wanket is there!
Mine too. But for house size I'm pretty average. So many factors here, I think Richie lives in 1 room
