Yes, but only for about half an hour a day. And only when it's cold. Today it's not needed.

I was at my parents overnight and it was so nice and toasty compared to my cold flat that I have buckled when I got home this afternoon and the heating is on

Pray for my smart meter

Nope. I'm leaving that until December.

I've put a coat on in the house. And three coats in November I expect. But I am not giving money to the energy companies until I really need to.

I had two hot water bottles in bed last night. Warm as toast.
